Lg Chem Ltd (051910) Key Developments
LG Chem, Ltd. expected to report Q3 2012 results on October 25, 2012. This event was calculated by Capital IQ (Created on October 19, 2012).
The landscape of the nation's car battery market is expected to change as SK Innovation Co., Ltd. has won a patent suit against LG Chem, Ltd. The key affiliate of SK Group was successful in its legal battle against LG Chem, citing a decision by the Korea Intellectual Property Tribunal (KIPO) to nullify LG's lithium-ion battery separator patent after filing a patent invalidity case late last year. It is as yet uncertain whether LG Chem will pay royalties to its cross-town rival while confirming it will appeal the ruling. In December, LG Chem filed a lawsuit with the Seoul Central District Court insisting that SK stole its patents. SK countersued, according to officials from the companies. SK looks confident to defeat LG Chem after winning against Japan-based company Tonen in a similar case, according to SK officials. A lithium-ion battery separator is considered a key part in the production process.
