(Seoul=NSP NEWS AGENCY) = In response to a surge in orders for cathode active materials, Cosmo Advanced Materials is intensifying its efforts to fast-track its expansion schedule, aiming to complete the investment in the first half of this year.

Originally announcing the increase in cathode active material production for secondary batteries in June 2023, Cosmo Advanced Materials has been actively pursuing its investment goal of securing 100,000 tons of facilities by the end of 2024. However, to meet the urgent supply demands of its customers, the company finds itself in a situation where the expansion schedule needs to be accelerated by six months compared to the initial plan.

Recognizing this as a strategic opportunity to bolster its primary business in the secondary battery cathode active material sector, the company is pooling all available resources into a concerted effort to expedite the expansion schedule.

With the facility capacity set to increase fivefold, there is a parallel anticipation of rapid growth in both revenue and operating profit, signaling a significant transformation for the company over the next few years.

A representative from Cosmo Advanced Materials expressed confidence in the company's post-2024 growth, stating,"We are dedicating our utmost effort to seize this golden opportunity for the company to firmly establish itself in the industry. We anticipate substantial short-term growth, envisioning a complete rebranding in the years to come."
