3.	Dividend Information

As a financial holding company, we distribute dividends to our shareholders using the dividends we receive from our subsidiaries. Our subsidiaries pay dividends to us within the limits of their distributable profits after deducting the necessary internal reserves required to maintain the adequate regulatory capital set by the financial authorities for each sector. As such, our dividend levels are determined based on a comprehensive analysis taking into consideration the current and future asset growth of our subsidiaries and us, as well as the surplus funds after maintaining the appropriate capital adequacy ratios, among others.

In February 2023, we announced our “Shareholder Return Policy and Group Capital Management Plan Based on the Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) Ratio (including both dividends and treasury share buyback/cancellations)” through our investor relations disclosures. Furthermore, in our business report for the fiscal year 2023, we disclosed the modifications we made to our existing shareholder return policy, including an adjustment to the Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) ratio target from 12% to 13%, taking into consideration the strengthened capital regulations, our enhanced loss absorption capacity, and the overall competitive landscape.

In July 2024, we became the first Korean bank holding company to announce a “Corporate Value Enhancement Plan,” in which we announced that we would strive to enhance corporate value by “enhancing shareholder return capabilities based on the CET1 ratio,” and presented a mid-to-long-term TSR target of 50%. A summary of the details of our shareholder return plans are as follows:

①

Simultaneously pursuing both cash dividends and treasury share buybacks/cancellations, and gradually increasing their amounts (continually increasing the dividend per share (“DPS”))

②

Dividing the CET1 ratio ranges into segments and increasing shareholder returns to enhance sustainability and predictability


Classification	Tier 1	Tier 2	Tier 3	Tier4
CET1 Ratio	~ 11.5%	11.5% ~ 12.5%	12.5% ~ 13.0%	13.0% ~
Total Shareholder Return (TSR)	~ 30%	~ 35%	~ 40%	~ 50%

Note 1)

TSR and DPS may change based on shifts in the financial environment, regulatory guidance, and management objectives (such as one-time profits and losses through mergers and acquisitions)

Note 2)

CET1 ratio ranges are based on year-end figures

③

Maintaining a dividend payout ratio of approximately 30% and allocating any excess amounts to treasury share buybacks/cancellations if the TSR is below 40%, and increasing both the cash dividend payouts and treasury share buybacks/cancellations in a balanced manner if the TSR exceeds 40%.

In February 2025, through with our “Corporate Value Enhancement Plan (Value-up),” we released our review report for 2024 and our future plans for 2025. The details of the implementation plans are as follows:

① Striving to achieve a CET1 Ratio of 12.5% in 2025 despite challenging market conditions, including high levels of exchange rates.

② Reallocating part of the capital surplus to retained earnings and using such funds to implement tax-free dividends, thereby effectively increasing tangible shareholder returns.

Our shareholders are expected to approve a transfer of KRW 3 trillion worth of capital surplus to retained earnings at the annual general meeting of shareholders in March 2025. We expect to use such amount to distribute tax-free dividends, beginning with the year-end dividends for fiscal year 2025 (expected to be distributed in April 2026).

③ Expanding treasury share buybacks/cancellations, with KRW 150 billion planned for 2025.

④ Determining the dividend amount before the record date to increase visibility for investors, starting from the first quarter of 2025.

In February 2026, through our “Corporate Value Enhancement Plan (Value-up 2.0),” we released our review report for 2025 and our future plans for 2026. The details of the implementation plans are as follows:

① Early achievement of a 13% CET1 ratio in 2026, maintaining a stable level of 13.2% or higher thereafter.

② Driving a sustainable Group ROE of 10% or higher (including expanding the non-bank profit contribution to approximately 20% by 2026)

③ Leading the expansion of the investor base as a flagship dividend stock in the financial sector

-	(Dividends): Implementing the first tax-free dividends among bank holding companies and pursuing a consistent annual DPS increase of 10% or more.

-	(Buybacks & Cancellations): Accelerating short-term share buybacks to 10%, and considering additional buybacks if the CET1 ratio exceeds 13%.

We are committed to faithfully implementing the corporate value enhancement plans that we had previously announced, and will continue our efforts to enhance market predictability and shareholder value. If there are any changes to the shareholder return policy, we will actively communicate them with all stakeholders through notices and disclosures.

The Company operates a performance-based stock-linked compensation system, pursuant to the standards established by the shareholders at the shareholders’ meeting and the Compensation Committee. The Company initially determines, for each recipient, the maximum share amounts that can be granted under the system, and then determines the final share amounts based on an evaluation of the long-term performance indices over four years (including the current year). The compensation is then paid in cash, based on the final share amount and the share price at the time the compensation is granted. The long-term performance indices include relative shareholder return, common equity ratio, return on equity, profit for the period, cost-to-income ratio, non-performing loan ratio and individual performance evaluations. For further information, please refer to the notes to the financial statements.
