Exchangeable bonds
2. Details of loss
Loss Amount (excluding previously reported amounts) (Won)
3,977,121,095,025

Large-scale Corporation
Applicable
3. Reason for loss
- The loss on transaction of
derivatives and loss on valuation of derivatives were recognized for accounting purposes due to exercises of the exchange rights under the exchangeable bonds issued by the Company on April 11, 2023, and increases in the Company s share
price, among other factors.
- Under International Financial Reporting Standards as
adopted in Korea, the embedded derivatives in the exchangeable bonds have been measured at fair value and reflected in the Company s financial statements. Accordingly, there is no actual cash outflow.
- As the loss on transaction of derivatives and loss on valuation of derivatives
relating to the Company s exchangeable bonds are offset by the Company s gain on disposal of treasury shares recognized when the Company s exchangeable bonds are exchanged into its common shares, their overall impact on the
Company s total equity is minimal.
