Shareholder Return Policy

To enhance shareholder value, we have established a shareholder return policy for the period from 2024 to 2026. Under this policy, at least 25% of our adjusted consolidated net income each year will be returned to shareholders through cash dividends or share buybacks followed by retirement. ​

Balancing investments for future growth with shareholder value creation, we are implementing shareholder returns primarily through share buybacks and subsequent retirement. In 2024, ₩60 bn worth of treasury shares (2.3% of total outstanding shares) were repurchased and fully retired on January 24, 2025.​

In 2025, we entered into a trust agreement for a ₩30 bn share buyback. As of the end of March 2025, 613,400 shares (1.64%) have been acquired. All repurchased shares will be fully retired upon the expiration of the trust agreement. ​

Going forward, we will continue to carry out shareholder returns within the scope of distributable earnings, taking into account investments for sustainable growth, the business environment, and shareholder value. Our shareholder return policy may be adjusted depending on economic uncertainties, regulatory changes, and the Company’s strategic objectives.
