There is no stock score on this page. The score is computed from audited XBRL filings on SEC EDGAR and includes a 20-point insider component built from Form 4s, and a Korean company files neither, so a grade here would be measuring something different from the same letter on a US hub. These are the reported figures instead.

What ISC does

Source: AIStockWire

ISC makes test sockets, the part that holds a chip against the tester and makes electrical contact with every pin on it. Its sockets use a conductive rubber rather than metal springs, which is a different engineering approach from the pin-based sockets other suppliers build, and it suits fine-pitch and high-frequency parts.

Sockets wear out and are replaced, so revenue follows how many chips are being tested rather than how many fabs are being built. That makes the business steadier than equipment, and it grows with the complexity of the parts being tested, since a denser chip needs more contacts and a more demanding socket. It is a small company in a niche, and it depends on the testing budgets of a short list of customers.

ISC has no US listing. Buying the shares means buying the Seoul line, which most US brokerage accounts cannot do directly.

Frequently asked questions

What is ISC's stock code?

ISC trades on the KOSDAQ in Seoul under the code 095340. Data providers usually write it as 095340.KQ. The company has no US listing, so the Seoul line is the only place the shares trade.

Why is ISC an AI stock?

ISC makes test sockets, the part that holds a chip against the tester and makes electrical contact with every pin on it. Its sockets use a conductive rubber rather than metal springs, which is a different engineering approach from the pin-based sockets other suppliers build, and it suits fine-pitch and high-frequency parts.

What do analysts expect for ISC?

11 analysts covering ISC have an average price target of ₩249,545 (about $185.90), which is +31.2% against the last close. Coverage of Korean listings is overwhelmingly domestic, so these are Korean brokerage estimates rather than the US sell-side names that cover an American chip stock.

Does ISC file with the SEC?

No. ISC is a Korean company listed in Seoul, so it reports to the Korea Exchange and the Financial Supervisory Service, not the SEC. That is why this page has no filings, Form 4 insider or congressional trading sections: those are built from EDGAR, which has nothing on a company that does not file there.
