### 새만금·군산 신공장 증설 (LiFSI·FEC 캐파) (high)
- metric: capacity 2,500 tpy · LiFSI 새만금 신공장
- note: The capital axis of the turnaround — Chunbo is expanding a Saemangeum LiFSI (2,500 tpy) and FEC additive plant, targeting ~50% cost savings versus existing lines via a non-China, low-cost process. As a high-fixed-cost materials maker, rising utilization drives large profit leverage; it is central to a non-China supply chain that dodges US countervailing duties.
