Shinhan Financial Group (SHG) filed an amended Form 6-K to correct key figures in its 6 February 2025 share-cancellation notice. Following completion of its treasury-stock repurchase program on 23 June 2025, the Group now plans to retire 10,347,131 common shares.
- Estimated book-value amount: KRW 499,999,982,000.
- Scheduled retirement date: 26 June 2025 (subject to potential adjustment).
The retirement is executed under Article 343-1 of the Korea Commercial Act, meaning it utilises distributable profits and does not reduce paid-in capital. Earlier, 7,603,260 shares were cancelled on 29 April 2025; consequently, total issued shares stood at 495,842,065 as of 23 June 2025. All other details from the original announcement remain unchanged.
Shinhan Financial Group Co., Ltd. (SHG) filed a Form 6-K announcing the early termination of the trust agreement it executed on 6 February 2025 to repurchase its own shares. The trust, managed by NH Investment & Securities, had an original ceiling of ₩500 billion and an expected end-date of 6 August 2025. On 23 June 2025 the board resolved to close the arrangement because the planned repurchase had been completed ahead of schedule.
Upon termination, the company holds 10,347,131 common shares, equal to 2.1 % of total shares outstanding. These shares—plus any residual cash—will be transferred from the trust into SHG’s corporate account. No other classes of stock were acquired, and fractional shares acquired in earlier mergers remain negligible.
The disclosure contains no additional earnings data or capital actions. Investors should note that although the buyback has been finalised, future utilisation of the treasury shares (retirement, employee compensation, M&A currency, etc.) is not addressed in this filing.
