2. Progress and achievements

1) Business overview

- Overview

Based on the idea of offering high-end water purifiers at low costs to enable many people to drink clean

water, Coway has brought innovation to its business processes, achieving tangible results at home and

abroad. Since its founding in 1989, Coway has continuously grown, focusing on the water that we drink and

air that we breathe. Rather than competing and growing within the existing business framework, it has

created and developed new markets for home appliances for ceaseless growth. As a leader in the industry,

Coway has taken the lead in developing markets and technologies, employing Codys who are service

professionals and presenting new standards for the industry. Coway, which is peerless in the field of

purifying water and air, has heightened the value of clean water and air. In order to become a company that

clients can fully trust, Coway has put ‘Coway Trust’ before anything else in every business process including

development, design, quality management, and services.

- Competition

In the Korean markets for water and air purifiers and bidets, not only price and quality but also efficient

business networks and maintenance service teams have emerged as important business elements. In

particular, considering the characteristics of such product groups, continued maintenance services for filter

replacement and so forth are required, thereby leading customers to prefer companies that have set up

service networks across the nation and have maintained a high level of brand awareness. As a result, only a

few major businesses have dominated the markets.

In the Korean water purifier market, Coway and Chungho NAIS have released high-priced products and

expanded high-end markets while LG electronics, SK magic, and others have launched lower-priced products

for retail markets. In terms of marketing, rental business based on door-to-door sales, rather than retail sales,

has played a leading role in the market. With a rise in consumer needs for clean water, tankless water

purifiers and other high-end products with premium filters have enlarged the markets.

The Korean air purifier market has continuously grown through rental services based on door-to-door sales,

which is Coway’s main sales system. The retail market has been dominated by its competitors such as

Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics. In the market that has expanded fast due to particulate matter and

yellow sand, Coway and its competitors have focused on providing clients with customized solutions that

they can fully trust, rather than on offering simple air purifiers. In April 2015, Coway released IoT-based

smart air care services for the first time in the health appliance industry. The smart air care system checks

Page 8: Annual Report...Quality management for water and air purifiers 136-23 Yugumagoksa-ro., Yugu-eup, Gongju-si, Chungcheongnam-do 665 branches and subsidiaries including Jamsil branch

7

indoor air quality in real time, offering customized solutions depending on the degree of pollution and

improving indoor air quality effectively.

The Korean bidet market has rapidly expanded since Coway launched a rental system via public TV networks

and its door-to-door sales teams in 2002 for the first time in the industry. Coway has focused on rental

services via door-to-door sales while Novita and SK Magic have dominated the retail market. Coway has also

diversified its sales channels by setting up sales shops in E-Mart, Lotte Mart, and Homeplus.

Coway launched its mattress business in October 2011 and has successfully solidified its position in the

market. Introducing rental services for the mattress market relying on lump-sum sales, it also added regular

maintenance services such as cleaning and sterilization, which have been positively evaluated by clients.

Along with water purifiers, bidets, and air purifiers, mattresses have been effectively positioned as one of

Coway’s main rental products.

Since August 2018, Coway has sold wear styling systems as a rental product. The innovative systems

efficiently take care of clothes and home spaces, offering both wear styling and air purification services for

reasonable monthly service fees. Such regular maintenance services are expected to continuously increase

demand for rental services.

Since January 2019, Coway has introduced and applied rental services to the electric range market, as well as

its existing lump-sum sales. Adding the service of replacing the range cooktop once during the contract

period for free, Coway’s products have been positively evaluated.

Since it launched its cosmetics business in September 2010, Coway has focused on selling high-function

premium cosmetics. Based on its customer base that has been set up through its existing health appliance

business, Coway has established sales networks relying on door-to-door sales and expanded its sales by

diversifying sales channels to include TV home shopping, duty free shops, and so forth.

- Market characteristics

With people’s interest in health and the environment heightening, customers have paid keen attention to

water purifiers, bidets, air purifiers, and other health appliances. Lump-sum sales closely relate to the

level of income and changes in the domestic economy while rental sales are not seriously affected by

fluctuations in economic conditions. The health appliance market is very sensitive to environmental issues

and government policies that may change the degree of interest in the environment

5. Issues facing Coway

In 2019, Coway selected ‘the New Value of Cleanliness, Coway Trust Re:FUSION’ as its slogan and did its

utmost to earn consumer trust. ‘Cleanliness’ is the value that Coway has ceaselessly facilitated while ‘Trust’ is

the one that Coway has continuously promoted to fulfill its limitless responsibility for ensuring cleanliness.

Last year, Coway experienced diverse events at home and abroad including the replacement of the largest

shareholder. Despite that, Coway made all-out efforts to increase customer satisfaction, putting clients first.

Helped by such endeavors, Coway’s consolidated sales for 2019 reached KRW 3.0189 trillion, up 11.5% from

the previous year, the biggest in its history.

With Netmarble chosen as its new biggest shareholder, Coway is expected to undergo more changes in 2020.

Making a fresh start, Coway is projected to set up even more future-oriented business strategies and achieve

sustainable growth in local and global markets.

Coway plans to increase its consolidated sales and operating income to KRW 3.3073 trillion and KRW 569.9

billion, respectively, in 2020, outpacing its previous achievements. Releasing market-leading products and

facilitating its growth in global markets, Coway will focus on developing innovative products, technologies,

and services. Moreover, not content with its leading position in the rental market, Coway will promote new

values and expand its business.
