Shinhan Financial Group reported that the board of its wholly owned subsidiary Shinhan Bank resolved to issue Write-down Contingent Capital Securities to help maintain regulatory capital under Basel III standards.
The securities are described as Basel III-compliant Tier 2 subordinated debt with a total issuance limit of KRW 200 billion. If Shinhan Bank is designated an insolvent financial institution under Article 2 of Korea’s Act on the Structural Improvement of the Financial Industry, the full amount of these contingent capital securities, including interest or dividends, will be written off without prior consent from related parties. Specific terms such as interest rate and final maturity have been delegated to the CEO of Shinhan Bank.
Shinhan Financial Group Co., Ltd. reports that its board approved the cancellation of 5,537,098 common treasury shares, with an estimated cancellation amount of KRW 500,000,000,000.
The company plans to acquire these shares for cancellation on the Korea Exchange from February 9, 2026 to July 10, 2026, with the exact cancellation date to be determined. The resolution was adopted on February 5, 2026, and applies only to common shares; no preferred shares are involved.
Shinhan Financial Group plans a significant share buyback through a trust arrangement. On February 5, 2026, its board approved entering a trust agreement to acquire treasury shares with an estimated acquisition amount of KRW 500,000,000,000. The scheduled acquisition period runs from February 9, 2026 to July 10, 2026.
Under the Korean Commercial Code, the upper limit of profits available for dividends as of the end of the previous fiscal year is KRW 4,072,040,620,882, and the filing calculates a legal limit on treasury share acquisition of KRW 1,421,877,440,731 after reflecting prior buybacks and dividend decisions. This buyback program uses only part of that capacity, suggesting room for further capital returns if the company chooses.
Shinhan Financial Group has set the record dates and expected cash payment dates for its 2026 first, second, and third quarter cash dividends. This follows a change in Korean capital markets law that allows the Board of Directors to decide quarterly dividend record dates instead of using fixed month-end dates.
For 2026, the dividend record dates are April 30 for the first quarter, July 30 for the second quarter, and November 3 for the third quarter. The expected payment dates are May 29, August 28, and November 27, respectively, and may change after discussions with relevant institutions.
Shinhan Financial Group Co., Ltd. has set February 20, 2026 as the record date for its annual cash dividend for fiscal year 2025, as provided under Article 59 of its Articles of Incorporation. Shareholders recorded on that date will be eligible to receive the annual cash dividend once it is determined and approved.
Shinhan Financial Group reported preliminary 2025 results showing solid full-year growth but a weaker fourth quarter. On a consolidated basis, revenue was KRW 64,681,960 million, down 12.67%, while net income rose 11.55% to KRW 5,084,519 million, helped by higher operating income and pre-tax profit.
Fourth-quarter net income was KRW 538,049 million, down sharply from the prior quarter but up 24.00% year over year. Shinhan Bank saw 2025 revenue decline 17.29% to KRW 39,167,414 million, yet net income increased 2.16% to KRW 3,775,822 million, mainly from higher interest income on larger loan assets.
Shinhan Card faced pressure, with 2025 net income down 16.52% to KRW 480,205 million as interest expenses rose, while Shinhan Life delivered higher revenue but slightly lower annual net income and a small loss in 4Q 2025. The board declared a 4Q 2025 cash dividend of KRW 880 per common share at the group level, for a total of KRW 417,695,836,800, bringing the annual dividend to KRW 2,590 per share (KRW 1,245.9 billion in total), all subject to audit completion and shareholder approval.
Shinhan Financial Group is amending its earlier share cancellation notice after completing a share repurchase program on January 30, 2026. The group now plans to cancel 10,840,573 common shares, with an estimated book-value amount of KRW 799,999,984,300.
The cancellation is scheduled for February 6, 2026, although this date may change based on discussions with related institutions. The shares are treasury shares cancelled under Article 343-1 of the Korea Commercial Act, so the paid-in capital of Shinhan Financial Group will remain unchanged.
Shinhan Financial Group ended its trust agreement for acquiring treasury shares after the contract expired on January 30, 2026. The trust, originally signed on July 31, 2025 with NH Investment & Securities, had a total contract amount of 800,000,000,000 before termination.
Upon termination, 10,840,573 treasury shares, representing 2.23% of total shares issued, are held in Shinhan Financial Group’s corporate account. The trust properties are returned as cash and treasury shares, and no separate board resolution was required under Korean regulations.
Shinhan Financial Group Co., Ltd. reported a small decrease in the stake held by its largest shareholder, Korea’s National Pension Service (NPS).

The change is based on the shareholder registry closing as of December 31, 2025.
