The record date is November 10, 2026, and the scheduled payout date is November 30, 2026; the payout date is subject to change based on discussions with relevant institutions.

The stated total was calculated using 733,028,922 outstanding common shares as of October 22, 2026, and the actual dividend amount may change based on outstanding shares on the record date.

market price-dividend ratio financial
"Market price-dividend ratio (%)"
record date financial
"The record date is November 10, 2026."
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.
capital reserve financial
"through a reduction of capital reserve"
A capital reserve is a portion of a company's profits set aside for special purposes, such as funding future growth or covering unexpected expenses. It acts like a savings fund that helps ensure the company’s stability and long-term success, which is reassuring for investors because it indicates the company is prepared for future opportunities or challenges.
retained earnings financial
"converted into retained earnings through a reduction of capital reserve"
Retained earnings are the cumulative portion of a company's profits that management keeps instead of distributing to shareholders as dividends; they appear on the balance sheet as part of owners’ value. For investors, retained earnings matter because they act like a company’s savings account—funding growth, paying down debt, or supporting future dividends—and their size and changes reveal how profitable the business has been and how management chooses to use those profits.

Date of board resolution (decision date)” and the date exactly one week prior to such date.

 

- The item “5. Total amount of dividends (KRW)” above was calculated based on our outstanding common shares of 733,028,922 shares as of October 22, 2026. The actual dividend amount is subject to change based on the number of outstanding shares as of the record date (November 10, 2026), following the acquisition of treasury shares as disclosed in the Form 6-K furnished on July 24, 2026 titled “Resolution to Enter into a Trust Agreement for Acquisition of Treasury Shares.”

 

- The item “6. Dividend record date” and “7.

- The cash dividend (KRW 220 per share) will be paid from funds converted into retained earnings through a reduction of capital reserve, and therefore will not be considered to be dividend income under the Income Tax Act of Korea or the Corporate Tax Act of Korea, and is thus not taxable income. However, in accordance with the relevant regulations (Article 26-3, Paragraph 6 of the Enforcement Decree of the Income Tax Act of Korea), in the case of certain resident shareholders who qualify as large shareholders, such dividend is excluded from dividend income only up to the book value of the shares held by such resident.

 

- The scheduled dividend payout date is subject to change based on discussions with relevant institutions.
