Approval of reductions to the capital reserve |
| |
• |
|
In accordance with Article 461-2 of the Korea Commercial Code (Reduction
of Reserve), the company intends to transfer its capital reserve to retained earnings. This measure aims to expand the funds available for dividends, as part of the company’s shareholder return policy. |
| |
• |
|
The reduction in capital reserve will result in an increase of KRW 3.0 trillion in distributable profit, which,
in accordance with relevant laws, may be used as a source for non-taxable dividends in the future. |
| |
• |
|
For individual shareholders, non-taxable dividends are not subject to
withholding tax (15.4%), allowing them to receive 100% of the dividend amount. Additionally, such dividends are not subject to comprehensive taxation on financial income (up to 49.5%). |
