Positive
  • Consolidated net profit attributable to owners of W603,087 million for H1 2025
  • Revenue recovery with W11,652,254 million in consolidated sales for H1 2025
  • Full plant utilization reported at 100% across Gumi, Paju and Guangzhou facilities in H1 2025
  • High R&D intensity: R&D-related expenditures of W1,212,498 million (10.4% of revenue)
  • Large patent portfolio: 30,644 patents in Korea and 37,516 patents in other countries (cumulative)
Negative
  • Operating loss of W82,569 million in H1 2025 despite net profit at the consolidated level
  • Significant valuation loss on FX derivatives of W277 billion during the reporting period
  • High customer concentration: top ten customers accounted for 90% of total sales in H1 2025
  • Material safety and labor incidents disclosed, including fines and corrective orders from 2021–2024
  • Large ongoing capital expenditures (W2.2 trillion in 2024; planned low‑to‑mid W2 trillion in 2025) that maintain capital intensity

Insights

TL;DR: Revenue recovered and LG Display returned to net profitability in H1 2025 despite an operating loss and sizable FX derivative valuation loss.

LG Display posted W11.65 trillion in revenue and W603.1 billion net income attributable to owners for H1 2025, reversing multi-year net losses. Operating loss of W82.6 billion suggests core operating margins remain under pressure, while a W277 billion valuation loss on FX derivatives materially affected financial results. High R&D intensity (~10% of revenue), sustained capex at ~W2 trillion and full plant utilization indicate continued investment to support OLED transition. For investors, the return to consolidated profitability is material, but operating profitability and derivative losses require monitoring.

TL;DR: Governance moves increase financing flexibility, but past safety incidents and labour corrective orders require continued oversight.

Amendments to the articles of incorporation broaden authorized share and issuance limits and permit more flexible interim dividend mechanics, which increases corporate flexibility for financing and capitalization. The board composition includes four outside directors of seven, and multiple board committees are in place. The report discloses prior safety incidents, fines and corrective orders; these items, together with high shareholder concentration (LG Electronics 36.72%), underscore the importance of robust oversight and stakeholder engagement.

Business
A.
Business overview

We were incorporated in February 1985 under the laws of the Republic of Korea. LG Electronics and LG Semicon transferred their respective LCD business to us in 1998, and since then, our business has been focused on the research, development, manufacture and sale of products that apply display technologies such as OLED and TFT‑LCD. Sorting by major sales product category, television, IT products, mobile and other products, and “auto” products (comprising automotive display products) accounted for 21%, 38%, 32% and 9% of our total sales, respectively, in the first half of 2025. Our customers primarily consist of global set makers, and our top ten customers comprised 90% of our total sales revenue in the first half of 2025. As a company focused on exports, our overseas sales accounted for approximately 96% of our total sales in the first half of 2025. We have overseas sales subsidiaries located in the United States, Germany, Japan, Taiwan, China and Singapore.

We operate key production facilities in Korea, China and Vietnam, and our cumulative annual production capacity for the first half of 2025 was approximately 2.4 million glass sheets, as converted into eighth-generation sheets (2200x2500mm). In order to expand our production capacity of differentiated and competitive products such as OLED panels, our total capital expenditures on a cash out basis was around W2.2 trillion in 2024. In 2025, we plan to maintain a similar level of capital expenditures as in 2024, at around the low-to-mid W2 trillion range.

The major raw materials for display panel production include glass, semiconductors, polarizers, organic matter, backlight units (“BLU”) and printed circuit boards (“PCB”), and the prices of our raw materials may fluctuate as a result of supply and demand in the market as well as changes in our purchase quantity.

The display industry to which we belong is highly affected by the global economic conditions. Given the characteristics of the display business, which requires large-scale investments, display panel prices may fluctuate due to an imbalance between supply and demand, which may affect our profitability. The sales performance of industry players is differentiated by not only the production capacity of each company but also other competitive differences arising from factors including technology, cost structure, product development capability, manufacturing efficiency, quality control and customer relationships, along with the price differentiation incorporating such factors. In addition, given the high proportion of our sales overseas, our sales of display panels are denominated mainly in U.S. dollars whereas our purchases of raw materials are denominated mainly in U.S. dollars, Japanese Yen and Chinese Yuan. Accordingly, our profit margins may be affected by changes in the exchange rates between the currencies. We strive to minimize the risk relating to foreign currency denominated assets, liabilities and operating cash flow due to exchange rate fluctuations.

7

 


 

Our research and development expenses represent approximately 10% of our sales, and we are continually creating customer value through systematic R&D activities for new products and technologies. Leveraging our competitive R&D activities, we are leading the display market by providing differentiated values in display panel products utilizing our OLED and TFT-LCD technologies for various uses including television, IT, mobile products and automobiles.

Risk Management and Derivative Contracts
A.
Risk management
(1)
Major market risks

Our business is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. Accordingly, we operate a risk management system that identifies and analyzes these risks while monitoring and managing risk level by establishing appropriate risk controls in order to ensure that such risks do not exceed certain threshold levels.

See Note 24 to our interim consolidated financial statements attached hereto for more information regarding our exposure to each of the risks listed above.

(2)
Risk management method

 

In order to manage our risk against foreign currency fluctuations, we eliminate such risk by adopting a policy of maintaining our net exposure risk within an acceptable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates, when necessary, to address short-term imbalances in the inflow and outflow of foreign currency funds. We also continually monitor our currency position and risk for other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, and when needed, we may from time to time enter into cross‑currency interest rate swap contracts and foreign currency forward contracts. Furthermore, we have adopted a policy aimed at minimizing uncertainty and financial costs arising from interest rate fluctuations and manage our interest rate risk through periodic monitoring of interest rate trends and adoption of appropriate countermeasures.

B.
Derivative contracts
(1)
Currency risks

 

We are exposed to currency risks on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in currencies other than in Won, our functional currency. These currencies are primarily the U.S. dollar, the Chinese Yuan, the Japanese Yen and the Vietnamese Dong.
Interest on borrowings is denominated in the currency of the borrowing. Generally, borrowings are denominated in currencies that match the cash flows generated by our underlying operations, primarily in Won, the U.S. dollar and the Chinese Yuan.
As of the end of the reporting period, in order to avoid risks of exchange rate fluctuations on the fair value of advance received, we entered into an aggregate of USD 1,585 million, CNY 700 million cross currency interest swap agreements with Shinhan Bank and others, for which we have not applied hedge accounting. Any rights or obligations arising from derivative contracts that do not apply hedge accounting are measured at fair value and are accounted for as assets and liabilities, whereas any resulting valuation gain or loss is recognized as profit or loss at the time such valuation gain or loss is incurred. We recognized a loss on valuation of derivative instruments in the amount of W277 billion with respect to the above foreign exchange derivative instruments held during the reporting period.
(2)
Interest rate risks

 

Our exposure to interest rate risks relates primarily to our floating rate long term loan obligations. We have established and are managing interest rate risk policies to minimize uncertainty and costs associated with interest rate fluctuations by monitoring cyclical interest rate fluctuations and enacting countermeasures.
As of the end of the reporting period, we entered into an aggregate of W2,355 billion in interest rate swap agreements with Shinhan Bank and others, for which we have not applied hedge accounting. We recognized a gain on valuation of derivative instruments in the amount of W1 billion and a loss on valuation of derivative instruments in the amount of W4 billion with respect to our interest rate derivative instruments held during the reporting period.

Environmental and Safety Matters

In order to minimize the environmental impact of our business activities, we are actively responding to environmental regulations applicable to our products and business sites.

 

A.
Business environment management

We have installed and operate various types of prevention facilities to minimize the emission of environmental pollutants generated in our production process. With respect to air and water pollutants, we set and manage our internal standard at 70% of the permitted levels under the regulatory emission standards. In addition, in order to establish a resource circulation system, we operate a proprietary system to monitor waste from its generation to treatment, have developed waste treatment technology and identified suitable recycling companies to reduce the amount of waste we generate and maximize recycling.

 

In addition, as we were designated a target company for the greenhouse gas emission trading system in 2015, we allocate and monitor our greenhouse gas emissions every year. In order to continually promote the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, we have set a medium- to long-term goal to reduce the emission level by continually investing in facility improvements and monitoring our emission levels.

 

We are subject to a variety of environmental laws and regulations, and operations at our manufacturing plants are subject to regulation and periodic scheduled and unscheduled on‑site inspections by the Ministry of Environment and local environmental protection authorities. The primary types of environmental laws applicable to us include the following:

 

(1)
Environmental pollutant emission regulations: Integrated Control of Pollutant-discharging Facilities Act, Clean Air Conservation Act, Water Quality Conservation Act, Wastes Control Act, Environmental Impact Assessment Act, etc.

 

(2)
Greenhouse gas emission management: Framework Act on Carbon Neutral and Green Growth to Respond to Climate Crisis, Act on the Allocation and Trading of Greenhouse Gas Emission Permits, etc.

 

(3)
Other workplace environment management: Chemicals Control Act, Chemicals Registration and Evaluation Act, Soil Environment Conservation Act, etc.

 

Through the implementation of an environmental and energy management system, we are continuously making efforts to minimize environmental impact and reduce energy usage in all aspects of our business process. Accordingly, we have acquired and currently operate the environmental management system ISO14001 and energy management system ISO 50001 certifications for all of our domestic and overseas production sites. In addition, we have established company-wide safety, healthy, energy and environment management policies and manuals, which are regularly updated based on international standards. We also conduct systematic management of our business process in accordance with international standards through annual follow-up and renewal audits.

We have been participating in the Carbon Disclosure Project (“CDP”), a globally recognized authority on environmental disclosure, and named to the Honors Club in the IT category of the Climate Change Korea Awards for nine consecutive years from 2016 to 2024. Such recognitions reflected our carbon management leadership based on our achievement of a 43% reduction in carbon emissions across our domestic and overseas business sites and the conversion of 39% of our total electricity consumption to renewable energy as of 2024, compared to their 2018 levels. In addition, we were recognized as a top-performing company in the water management category by the CDP Water Security Korea Awards for five consecutive years from 2018 to 2022. In 2023 and 2024, we received a Leadership A- rating in recognition of our excellence in managing water-related environmental impact, including the public disclosure of our mid- to long-term water reuse rate targets and water pollutant discharge levels.

In addition, in recognition of our efforts toward recycling rate improvement and waste reduction, we were nominated as a leading company with an excellent performance in resource circulation and received a commendation from the Minister of Environment in 2020. Our overseas subsidiary in Yantai earned Platinum Zero Waste to Landfill (“ZWTL”) validation in 2021, all of our domestic production facilities earned Gold ZWTL validation, our overseas subsidiary in Nanjing earned Platinum validation in 2022, and our Paju plant earned Platinum validation in June 2024. In 2022, we introduced a resource recirculation recognition program in accordance with the Korean government’s waste management policy and received circular resource certification on eight types of our discarded trays and vinyl. In 2023, we have obtained quality certification for certain of our recycled items recognized as circular resources, and we plan to continue to promote the resource circulation of our products. We will continue our efforts to reinforce our resource circulation program by minimizing waste and maximizing recycling rate.

We have continued to pursue ESG management activities based on the spirit of “value creation for consumers” and “human-first management,” and we plan to obtain further recognition for our eco-friendly management and share relevant information with the stakeholders.

B.
Product environment management

In order to respond to applicable domestic and overseas environmental regulations, such as the European Union’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) and Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) that restrict the use of certain hazardous substances, we operate a hazardous substance management program that implements a four-step procedure (each such step, a “Gate”) that manages various stages of our production cycle, beginning with the registration process of our business partners up to the mass production stage. In addition, in order to preemptively address four types of phthalate substances that became additionally regulated pursuant to the RoHS in 2016 and officially went into effect on July 22, 2019, we replaced the latent risk elements in advance as well as implemented a more stable management process with respect to such substances. In implementing this process, we collaborated with external agencies to ascertain regulatory trends and establish our response strategy, and we formulated and applied effective management measures through the collaborative efforts of our development, procurement, quality assurance and analysis teams.

- Gate 01 (Business Partner Stage): An audit is conducted prior to the registration of a new business partner (including the inspection of the business partner’s hazardous substance response process)

- Gate 02 (Parts Development Stage): An environmental evaluation of each part under development is conducted (consisting of three stages: (1) document review; (2) XRF test and (3) precision analysis)

- Gate 03 (Product Development Stage): An environmental evaluation of the product model and product labeling are conducted (including RoHS verification)

- Gate 04 (Mass Production Stage): Process management through the periodic testing of mass-produced parts for any hazardous substances (including rate-based tests based on risk assessment)

We operate a “Hazardous Substance Management System for Products” that effectively manages hazardous substances by classifying them into four levels: A-I, A-II, B-I, and B-II. In particular, in addition to substances prohibited by global hazardous substance regulations on products, we have designated substances causing harm to the human body and the environment as Level B substances. By developing alternative technologies and parts and applying them to our products, we continually strive to achieve a gradual reduction and elimination of non-prohibited hazardous substances.

- Level A-I (Prohibited Substances): Prohibited substances designated under the RoHS regulations (i.e., 10 regulated substances) and those designated by specific customers

- Level A-II (Prohibited Substances): Substances prohibited by regulations and conventions other than those covered under Level A-1 and those designated as such by customers

- Level B-I (Substances Subject to Voluntary Reduction): Substances that are being voluntarily replaced over a certain period of time

- Level B-II (Substances Under Observation): Substances that are not currently banned, but are expected to become prohibited in the future

Moreover, we participated in reforming IEC 62321, an international testing standard published by the International Electrotechnical Commission and used by RoHS, and the commission adopted our halogen‑free combustion ion chromatography method in as IEC 62321‑3‑2, which was published in June 2013.

In 2017, we became the first display panel company to receive the SGS Eco Label accreditation for OLED television display modules from SGS, a global product testing/accreditation agency, and have since continually received such accreditation. In 2024, such accreditation has been updated to “SGS EEPS accreditation.” In 2022, we expanded our accreditation program to cover display modules for monitors, notebook computers, tablets and automobiles, as a result of which our display modules for monitors and notebook computers received SGS Eco Label accreditation for the first time and our automotive display module became the first in the industry to receive the same accreditation for its excellence in energy efficiency, and we have since maintained the SGS Eco Label for such products. In 2023, our high-end LCD panels for 16-inch notebooks and 27-inch monitors, in which we incorporated recycled materials for the first time, received the SGS Eco Label accreditation. In addition, our 30-inch and 55-inch transparent display products, for which we applied hazardous substance reduction technology, became the first in the industry to receive the SGS Eco Label accreditation. Moreover, in 2022, our 27-inch monitor display product that applied anti-bacterial films received the SGS Performance Mark accreditation for its anti-bacterial performance, and in 2023, our commercial display module that applied Plus-Bright energy consumption reduction technology obtained the SGS Performance Mark accreditation for its energy efficiency performance. Our high-end LCD panels

for 16-inch notebooks and 27-inch monitors also received the same accreditation for reducing energy consumption through the implementation of proprietary algorithms and improving panel transmittance.

Also in 2022, upon assessment and verification of GHG emissions throughout its entire product life cycle, our OLED TV panel received the industry’s first Carbon Footprint Certification from The Carbon Trust, a not-for-profit company founded by the United Kingdom government that provides voluntary carbon certification services and carbon labeling schemes. In 2023, our high-end IT LCD panels (27-inch and smaller) received the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) certification from TÜV Rheinland, a global independent testing, inspection and certification agency, by achieving carbon emission reduction through the application of recycled materials and low energy consumption technologies. Our OLED panels for automotive products also received the same certification for achieving carbon emission through the application of light-control film integration technology. In 2024, our 14-inch high-end LCD panel product for notebook computers received the Product Carbon Footprint Reduction (PCR) certification from TÜV Rheinland through the application of bio-plastic, recycled materials and ultra-precision micro-processing technology. Additionally, upon verification by Underwriters Laboratories (UL), a global inspection and certification agency, such display panel also received the Environmental Claim Validation (ECV) certification. In 2025, we obtained the “Product Carbon Footprint Methodology” certification from TÜV Rheinland reflecting our establishment of a system to calculate carbon emissions generated throughout the entire product life cycle based on international standards and our proprietary evaluation methodology optimized for display panels, as well as an IT system for evaluating product carbon footprints. .

In 2021, we received the “Green Technology Certification” for our advanced incell touch display technology, an eco-friendly technology with touch-sensing electrodes and transmission lines that reduce carbon emissions and the use of rare metals. Also, since 2021, we have continued to obtain an eco-friendly certification from TUV SUD, a globally recognized accreditation agency, for excellence in resource circulation and non-use of specific hazardous substances in our display panels for OLED televisions, OLED tablets, and PO mobile models and smartwatches.

In 2018, we became the first display panel company to receive the “Green Technology Certification” from the Korean Ministry of Science and ICT for improving the light efficiency technology of OLED to promote energy use reduction. In 2017, for the IPS Nano Color for LCD, we received the Quality & Performance Mark from Intertek, a global product testing/accreditation agency, by applying a technology to eliminate cadmium (Cd) and indium phosphide (InP).

C.
Safety standards

Our products comply with the IEC 62638-1 global product safety standards, and we obtain CB and UL certifications on applicable products.

In order to promote the enhancement of safety for automobile manufacturers and consumers, we became the first display panel company in June 2016 to introduce a flame-resistant certification program for our display panels, which program includes flame resistance standards for automotive materials (including ISO 3795, DIN 75200 and FMVSS 302 standards) as well as for safety standards for information technology devices, which has been certified by TUV SUD. In 2022, we expanded the number of applicable flame resistance standards for such program from three to nine.

Furthermore, in 2021, we established infrastructure for flammability tests required under the United States Federal Aviation Administration’s FAR 25.853 standards and impact tests under RTCA DO-313 standards, and the reliability of these test results have been certified by TUV SUD.

D.
Green management

In accordance with Article 27 of the Framework Act on Carbon Neutral and Green Growth to Respond to Climate Crisis, we submitted a statement of our 2024 domestic emissions and energy usage to the Korean government in March 2025 after it was certified by DNV Business Assurance Korea, a government‑designated certification agency.

 

The table below sets forth yearly levels of our greenhouse gases emissions and energy usage in the statement submitted to the Korean government:

Since our designation as a target company for the greenhouse gas emission trading system in 2015, we have received greenhouse gas emission allowances from the government and at the same time submit our greenhouse gas emission calculations and specifications to the government every year. In order to continually promote the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, we have set a mid-term goal to reduce the emission level from 2018 to 2030 by 53% and a medium- to long-term goal to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. In order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we plan to develop high-efficiency process gas scrubbers and low-carbon alternative gas technologies, strengthen company-wide power-saving activities and accelerate the transition to renewable energy. In addition to internal reduction efforts, in order to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, we plan to externally offset residual emissions that are difficult to reduce technically. In addition, through our ESG governance (including ESG committee/management meetings), we will regularly monitor and report our carbon-neutral implementation progress to strengthen our execution capabilities and continually upgrade our roadmap to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.

 

In order to reduce emissions of fluorinated gases (F-Gas) used in the dry etching process in our manufacturing operations, we have installed plasma equipment at our manufacturing sites since 2018, which is capable of reducing such emissions by over 90%. As a result, in 2024, we were able to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across our domestic and overseas business sites by 43% compared to their 2018 levels. In addition, in line with the renewable energy utilization program in Korea, which was initiated in 2021, our domestic business sites are shifting to renewable energy through the green premium program, while our overseas business sites in China and Vietnam are shifting to renewable energy through Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) purchases. In 2024, we converted 3,071 GWh of electricity (approximately 39% of our total electricity) to renewable energy.

 

We are enhancing the efficiency of our utility manufacturing equipment and improving the power usage of our production facilities through a company-wide organization dedicated to energy conservation. In addition, we are optimizing facility operations using Digital Transformation (DX)-based technologies, such as smart control systems for chillers, and are working with experts to minimize energy consumption for each equipment as part of our ongoing energy-saving initiatives.

In January 2021, an incident involving a leakage of tetramethylammonium hydroxide chemicals occurred during refurbishment of equipment at one of our plants in Paju, causing bodily harm to workers. In December 2021, we and certain of our employees were prosecuted for violating the Occupational Safety and Health Act and the Chemicals Control Act. In January 2023, the Goyang Branch of the Uijeongbu District Court ordered a fine of W20 million. The prosecution filed an appeal with respect to several of the prosecuted employees, which was dismissed by the Seoul Appellate Court on December 8, 2023. In addition, the judgment against the remaining defendants, including one of our employees but excluding two of our employees who filed a final appeal with the Supreme Court, was confirmed on December 16, 2023. The final appeals of the two employees were dismissed on March 15, 2024, and the Appellate Court’s ruling was confirmed on March 22, 2024. In order to prevent recurrence, we are exerting continual efforts to treat safety as a top priority management objective, including by strengthening our safety management standards and employee training efforts.

 

On May 19, 2023, an incident resulting in the death of one of our employees occurred, and we subsequently became subject to a non-periodic inspection by the Southern Branch Office of the Seoul Regional Employment and Labor Office. As a result of the labor inspection, we and our former CEO were alleged to have violated Article 53 of the Labor Standards Act on October 6, 2023, and the Southern Branch Office of Ministry of Employment and Labor conducted an investigation, which was completed on October 22, 2024 without any prosecution. In addition, on November 13, 2023, we had received a corrective order from the Southern Branch Office of the Seoul Regional Employment and Labor Office to pay W239,743,773 in overtime wages to the relevant employees for violations of Article 36 and Provision 1 of Article 43 of the Labor Standards Act. On November 27, 2023, we had fulfilled the corrective order, and accordingly, we do not expect to be charged with any further penalties in relation to the corrective order. In the case of a corrective order, when such order is fulfilled, the case becomes concluded at the labor office level, and the labor office does not pursue further criminal action. In order to prevent the recurrence of similar events, we have established a special committee to improve the culture of our organization and have continued to implement ongoing remedial measures including the reorganization of our employee attendance system.

Other Matters

Legal proceedings

We are a defendant in two separate civil lawsuits (comprising one damages claim in the United Kingdom filed by private plaintiffs and one damages claim in Israel filed by private plaintiffs) filed against us and certain other TFT-LCD panel manufacturers in connection with alleged anticompetitive behavior of the defendants. In each of these cases, the amount being sought has not been determined. The trial for the case in the United Kingdom has been completed and an appeal is currently in progress, while no trial has been scheduled for the case in Israel. While the expected outcome of each of these cases is unclear, we do not believe that any of these cases would have a material effect on our financial conditions.

As of the end of the reporting period, we have not provided any collateral in connection with borrowings or debt guarantees arising from transactions with our major shareholders.

Report on Review of Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

 

(English Translation of a Report Originally Issued in Korean)

 

 

 

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

LG Display Co., Ltd.

Reviewed Financial Statements

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements of LG Display Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”). These condensed consolidated interim financial statements consist of the consolidated interim statement of financial position of the Group as at June 30, 2025, and the related consolidated interim statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and material accounting policy information and other selected explanatory notes, expressed in Korean won.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the Republic of Korea (Korean IFRS) 1034 Interim Financial Reporting, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of condensed consolidated interim financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements based on our review.

We conducted our review in accordance with quarterly or semi-annual review standards established by the Securities and Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit.

2.
Basis of Preparation

 

(a)
Application of accounting standards

 

The Group's condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard as adopted by the Republic of Korea (Korean IFRS) 1034 Interim Financial Reporting. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information required for full annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

(b)
Basis of Measurement

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following material items in the consolidated statement of financial position:

 

derivative financial instruments at fair value, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”), financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”), financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”), and
net defined benefit liabilities (defined benefit assets) recognized at the present value of defined benefit obligations less the fair value of plan assets

 

(c)
Functional and Presentation Currency

 

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates (the “functional currency"). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Korean won, which is the Parent Company’s functional and presentation currency

 

(d)
Estimates and Judgments

 

The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with Korean IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may differ from these estimates at the end of the interim reporting period which are based on management's best estimate, as the underlying assumptions may vary from actual outcomes.

 

(e)
Accounting standards and Interpretation issued and adopted by the Group

 

The Group has applied the following standards and amendments for the first time for their annual reporting period commencing January 1, 2025.

 

 

(i)
Amendments to Korean IFRS 1021 Effect of Exchange Rate Fluctuations, Amendments to Korean IFRS 1101 First Adoption of International Generally Accepted Accounting Principles Adopted by Korea – Lack of Exchangeability

 

The amendment requires the entity to disclose the relevant information when an entity estimates a spot exchange rate because exchangeability between two currencies is lacking. The amendments do not have a significant impact on the financial statements.

-

(ii)

Financial Risk Management

 

The Group is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Group identifies and analyzes such risks, and controls are implemented under a risk management system to monitor and manage these risks at below an acceptable level.

 

(a) Market risk

 

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices, will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

 

(i) Currency risk

 

The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Parent Company, Korean won (KRW). The currencies in which these transactions primarily are denominated are USD, CNY, JPY, and VND, etc.

 

Interest on borrowings is accrued in the currency of the borrowing. Generally, borrowings are denominated in currencies that match the cash flows generated by the underlying operations of the Group, primarily KRW, USD and CNY.

 

The Group adopts policies to ensure that its net exposure is kept to a manageable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates when necessary to address short-term imbalances. In respect of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, the Group manages currency risk through continuously managing the position of foreign currencies, measuring the currency risk and, if necessary, using derivatives such as currency forwards, currency swap and others.

 

i) Exposure to currency risk

 

The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk for major foreign currencies as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is as follows:

(26,923)

VND

 

(1,050,718)

 

(1,485,175)

 

 

Net exposure is the difference between foreign currency assets and liabilities and it includes derivatives assets and liabilities from cross currency interest rate swap contracts and forward exchange contracts.

 

Cross currency interest rate swap contracts, USD 630 million (2024: USD 500 million) and CNY 700 million (2024: CNY 726 million) were entered into to manage currency risk with respect to foreign currency denominated borrowings and USD 955 million (2024: USD 980 million) were entered into to manage currency risk and interest rate risk with respect to foreign currency denominated borrowings and bonds.

 

Forward exchange contracts, there is no balance which were entered into to manage currency risk with respect to advances received in foreign currency. (2024: USD 750 million)

ii) Sensitivity analysis

 

A weaker won, as indicated below, against the following currencies which comprise the Group’s assets or liabilities denominated in a foreign currency as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, would have increased (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis is based on foreign currency exchange rate variances that the Group considers to be reasonably possible at the end of the reporting period. The analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, would remain constant. The changes in equity and profit or loss would have been as follows:

Financial Risk Management, Continued

 

(ii) Interest rate risk

 

Interest rate risk arises principally from the Group’s variable interest-bearing bonds and borrowings. The Group establishes and applies its policy to reduce uncertainty arising from fluctuations in interest rates and to minimize finance cost and manages interest rate risk by monitoring of trends of fluctuations in interest rate and establishing plan for countermeasures. Meanwhile, the Group entered into cross currency interest rate swap contracts amounting to USD 955 million (W1,295,362 million) and interest rate swap contracts amounting to W2,355,000 million in notional amount to hedge interest rate risk with respect to variable interest bearing borrowings.

(b) Credit risk

 

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers.

 

The Group’s exposure to credit risk of trade and other receivables is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management believes that the default risk of the country in which each customer operates, does not have a significant influence on credit risk since the majority of the customers are global electronic appliance manufacturers operating in global markets.

 

The Group establishes credit limits for each customer and each new customer is analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively before determining whether to utilize third party guarantees, insurance or factoring as appropriate.

 

In relation to the impairment of financial assets subsequent to initial recognition, the Group recognizes the changes in expected credit loss (“ECL”) in profit or loss at each reporting date.

 

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are as follows:

Financial Risk Management, Continued

 

Trade accounts and notes receivable are insured in order for the Group to manage credit risk if they do not meet the Group’s internal credit ratings. Uninsured trade accounts and notes receivable are managed by continuous monitoring of internal credit rating standards established by the Group and seeking insurance coverage, if necessary.

 

There are no significant concentrations of credit risk, whether through exposure to individual customers, specific industry sectors and/or regions.

 

(c) Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or other financial assets. The Group’s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows in major currencies and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans.

 

The Group has historically been able to satisfy its cash requirements from cash flows from operations and debt and equity financing. In addition, the Group maintains a line of credit with various banks.

 

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Capital management

 

Management’s policy is to maintain a capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. Liabilities to equity ratio, net borrowings to equity ratio and other financial ratios are used by management to achieve an optimal capital structure. Management also monitors the return on capital as well as the level of dividends to ordinary shareholders. The Group is also responsible for complying with certain financial ratios as part of capital maintenance conditions imposed externally. To fulfill this responsibility, the Group regularly monitors these financial ratios and takes proactive measures when necessary.

(iii) Fair values of financial assets and liabilities

 

i) Fair value hierarchy

 

Financial instruments carried at fair value are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques. The different levels have been defined as follows:

 

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or

liability, either directly or indirectly

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data

 

The Group measures fair value for financial reporting purposes, including fair value measurements, which are classified as “Level 3”. The Group consults on the fair value assessment process and its results in accordance with the financial reporting schedule, and recognizes changes in the "level" at the end of the reporting period when there is a change in events or circumstances that cause a shift between fair value levels.

Report on Review of Condensed Interim Financial Statements

(English Translation of a Report Originally Issued in Korean)

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

LG Display Co., Ltd.

Reviewed Financial Statements

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed interim financial statements of LG Display Co., Ltd. (referred to as the “Company”). These condensed interim financial statements consist of the interim statement of financial position of the Company as at June 30, 2025, and the related interim statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and material accounting policy information and other selected explanatory notes, expressed in Korean won.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed interim financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the Republic of Korea (Korean IFRS) 1034 Interim Financial Reporting, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of condensed interim financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed interim financial statements based on our review.

We conducted our review in accordance with quarterly or semi-annual review standards established by the Securities and Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe the accompanying condensed interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with Korean IFRS 1034 Interim Financial Reporting.

 

 

img36667812_3.jpg


 

Other Matters

We have audited the statement of financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2024, and the related statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, not presented herein, in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing. We expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements in our audit report dated March 4, 2025. The statement of financial position as at December 31, 2024, presented herein for comparative purposes, is consistent, in all material respects, with the above audited statement of financial position as at December 31, 2024.

Review standards and their application in practice vary among countries. The procedures and practices used in the Republic of Korea to review such financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries.

August 11, 2025

Seoul, Korea

This report is effective as of August 11, 2025, the review report date. Certain subsequent events or circumstances, which may occur between the review report date and the time of reading this report, could have a material impact on the accompanying condensed interim financial statements and notes thereto. Accordingly, the readers of the review report should understand that there is a possibility that the above review report may have to be revised to reflect the impact of such subsequent events or circumstances, if any.

The preparation of the condensed separate interim financial statements in conformity with Korean IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.

The Company has applied the following standards and amendments for the first time for their annual reporting period commencing January 1, 2025.

23. Financial Risk Management

 

The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Company identifies and analyzes such risks, and controls are implemented under a risk management system to monitor and manage these risks at below an acceptable level.

 

(a) Market risk

 

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices, will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

 

(i) Currency risk

 

The Company is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company, Korean won (KRW). The currencies in which these transactions primarily are denominated are USD, JPY, etc.

 

Interest on borrowings is accrued in the currency of the borrowing. Generally, borrowings are denominated in currencies that match the cash flows generated by the underlying operations of the Company, primarily KRW and USD.

 

The Company adopts policies to ensure that its net exposure is kept to a manageable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates when necessary to address short-term imbalances. In respect of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, the Company manages currency risk through continuously managing the position of foreign currencies, measuring the currency risk and, if necessary, using derivatives such as currency forwards, currency swap and others.

(12,784)

 

(13,282)

 

 

Net exposure is the difference between foreign currency assets and liabilities and it includes derivatives assets and liabilities from cross currency interest rate swap contracts and forward exchange contracts.

 

Cross currency interest rate swap contracts, USD 630 million (2024: USD 500 million) and CNY 700 million (2024: CNY 726 million) were entered into to manage currency risk with respect to foreign currency denominated borrowings and USD 955 million (2024: USD 980 million) were entered into to manage currency risk and interest rate risk with respect to foreign currency denominated borrowings and bonds.

 

Forward exchange contracts, there is no balance which were entered into to manage currency risk with respect to advances received in foreign currency. (2024: USD 750 million)

ii) Sensitivity analysis

 

A weaker won, as indicated below, against the following currencies which comprise the Company’s assets or liabilities denominated in a foreign currency as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 would have increased (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis is based on foreign currency exchange rate variances that the Company considers to be reasonably possible at the end of the reporting period. The analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, would remain constant. The changes in equity and profit or loss would have been as follows:

(ii) Interest rate risk

 

Interest rate risk arises principally from the Company’s variable interest-bearing bonds and borrowings. The Company establishes and applies its policy to reduce uncertainty arising from fluctuations in interest rates and to minimize finance cost and manages interest rate risk by monitoring of trends of fluctuations in interest rate and establishing plan for countermeasures. Meanwhile, the Company entered into cross currency interest rate swap contracts amounting to USD 955 million (W1,295,362million) and interest rate swap contracts amounting to W2,355,000 million in notional amount to hedge interest rate risk with respect to variable interest bearing borrowings.

(b) Credit risk

 

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers.

 

The Company’s exposure to credit risk of trade and other receivables is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management believes that the default risk of the country in which each customer operates, does not have a significant influence on credit risk since the majority of the customers are global electronic appliance manufacturers operating in global markets.

 

The Company establishes credit limits for each customer and each new customer is analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively before determining whether to utilize third party guarantees, insurance or factoring as appropriate.

 

In relation to the impairment of financial assets subsequent to initial recognition, the Company recognizes the changes in expected credit loss (“ECL”) in profit or loss at each reporting date.

 

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are as follows:

23. Financial Risk Management, Continued

 

In addition to the financial assets above, as of June 30, 2025, the Company provides payment guarantees to LG Display Vietnam Haiphong, Co., Ltd. in connection with the principal amount of credit facilities amounting to USD 1,000 million (W1,356,400 million) (see note 15).

 

Trade accounts and notes receivable are insured in order for the Company to manage credit risk if they do not meet the Company’s internal credit ratings. Uninsured trade accounts and notes receivable are managed by continuous monitoring of internal credit rating standards established by the Company and seeking insurance coverage, if necessary. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk, whether through exposure to individual customers, specific industry sectors and/or regions.

 

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or other financial assets. The Company’s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows in major currencies and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans.

 

The Company has historically been able to satisfy its cash requirements from cash flows from operations and debt and equity financing. In addition, the Company maintains a line of credit with various banks.

(d) Capital management

 

Management’s policy is to maintain a capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. Liabilities to equity ratio, net borrowings to equity ratio and other financial ratios are used by management to achieve an optimal capital structure. Management also monitors the return on capital as well as the level of dividends to ordinary shareholders. The Company is also responsible for complying with certain financial ratios as part of capital maintenance conditions imposed externally. To fulfill this responsibility, the Company regularly monitors these financial ratios and takes proactive measures when necessary.

(iii) Fair values of financial assets and liabilities

 

i) Fair value hierarchy

 

Financial instruments carried at fair value are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques. The different levels have been defined as follows:

 

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data

 

The Company measures fair value for financial reporting purposes, including fair value measurements, which are classified as "Level 3". The Company consults on the fair value assessment process and its results in accordance with the financial reporting schedule, and recognizes changes in the "level" at the end of the reporting period when there is a change in events or circumstances that cause a shift between fair value levels.
