- This cancellation of treasury shares is based on the resolution of the Board of Directors to cancel treasury shares previously purchased within the scope of dividends available and therefore, there is no reduction of capital following this cancellation.
- Legal basis of cancellation of treasury shares : Article 343 Paragraph 1 of the Commercial Act
- Above ‘1. Number of shares to be retired’ is based on 2% (1,691,425 shares) of the total number of issued shares (84,571,230 shares) at the time of the announcement of the ‘Cancellation of existing treasury shares (Cancel treasury shares, which account 6% of outstanding shares within the next three years (2024~2026))’ in July 2024.
- Above ‘4. Estimated amount of retirement (KRW)’ is the amount obtained by multiplying the number of treasury shares subject to cancellation by the closing price (KRW248,500) of the day before the board resolution date.
- Above ‘7. Scheduled retirement date’ is subject to change following consultations with relevant authorities.
- Since it is the case of cancellation of existing treasury shares, the disclosure of ‘disposal of treasury shares’ is replaced by this disclosure.
