Operations: JW Lifescience Corporation generates revenue primarily from its Pharmaceuticals segment, amounting to ₩221.32 million.

Dividend Yield: 4.4%

JW Lifescience's dividend yield of 4.41% places it in the top 25% of Korean market payers, though its seven-year history shows unreliable payments without growth. Despite this, dividends are well covered by earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios at 26.9% and 16.3%, respectively. Trading significantly below estimated fair value suggests potential for capital appreciation alongside income generation, but investors should be cautious about the stock's short dividend history and volatility in payments.
