    Korea Electric Power Corporation -- Moody's: KEPCO's 1H 2018 results below expectation, a credit negative, but ratings unaffected

    Moody's Investors Service says that Korea Electric Power Corporation's (KEPCO, Aa2 stable) results for 1H 2018 were weaker than expected, with prospects for a modest recovery in the company's profits in 2019-20. "KEPCO announced an operating loss for 2Q 2018 following operating losses in the previous two quarters, mainly due to increased fuel costs and lower nuclear utilization," says Mic Kang, a Moody's Vice President and Senior Credit Officer. "But the weak results will have no immediate impact on KEPCO's ratings because of a likely moderate improvement in its credit metrics in 2019-20 from 2018 and the very high likelihood of extraordinary support from the Government of Korea built into KEPCO's rating," adds Kang.

    Korea East-West Power Co., Ltd. -- Moody's assigns Aa2 to Korea East-West Power's USD senior unsecured bonds

    Moody's Investors Service has assigned a Aa2 rating to the proposed senior unsecured US dollar bonds to be issued by Korea East-West Power Co., Ltd. (EWP, Aa2 stable). "The Aa2 rating reflects EWP's close operational and financial relationships with its parent, Korea Electric Power Corporation, as well as its strategic importance to Korea's economy," says Mic Kang, a Moody's Vice President and Senior Credit Officer. Moody's expects that both Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO, Aa2 stable) and the Government of Korea (Aa2 stable) will take strong measures to contain any material widespread disruptions to EWP's operations, if and when needed, due to the company's close relationship with KEPCO and its important role as a major power generator in the country.

    Korea Gas Corporation -- Moody's: Kogas' improved results for 1Q 2018 are within expectations

    Moody's Investors Service says that Korea Gas Corporation's (Kogas) improved operating results for the three months ended 31 March 2018 (1Q 2018) are in line with Moody's expectations, and will not immediately affect the company's Aa2 issuer rating or the stable outlook on the rating. "Kogas' improved results and lower reported debt in 1Q 2018 will mitigate possible weaker operating performance, if there are any delays in upward tariff adjustments to compensate for higher fuel costs," says Mic Kang, a Moody's Vice President and Senior Credit Officer. According to its preliminary earnings release, Kogas recorded an unaudited consolidated operating profit of KRW963.5 billion in 1Q 2018, up from KRW826.7 billion in 1Q 2017.

    Korea District Heating Corporation -- Moody's: KDHC's weaker results in 1Q 2018 are within Moody's expectations for its credit quality

    Moody's Investors Service says that Korea District Heating Corporation's operating results in 1Q 2018 were weaker than Moody's expectations, but have no immediate impact on its A1 issuer rating and stable outlook. "The weaker operating results in 1Q 2018 compared to 1Q 2017 will be mitigated by increasing sales volume from its new combined heat and electricity capacity, which started commercial operations in January 2018, and lower capital expenditure over the next 12-18 months," says Mic Kang, a Moody's Vice President and Senior Credit Officer.
