Other Considerations

 

- The decision to acquire treasury shares is intended to enhance shareholder return in accordance with the SFG’s 2026 Corporate Value-Up Plan disclosed on April 12, 2026.

 

- The above ‘1. Number of Shares to be Acquired’ was calculated by dividing the planned acquisition amount by the closing price of common shares of SFG as of the day prior to the resolution of the board of directors (July 22, 2026: KRW 104,500). The actual number and amount of shares to be acquired are subject to change depending on future changes in share price.

 

- The above ‘2. Estimated Amount of Shares to be Acquired’ is based on the amount resolved by the board of directors on the date hereof. Following the completion of the current treasury stock acquisition, SFG plans to review the possibility of an additional share repurchase during this year under the 2026 Corporate Value-Up Plan to further enhance shareholder value.

 

- The above ‘4. Estimated Holding period’ may change depending on the financial conditions, market environment, or other business factors. As the treasury shares acquired pursuant to this decision are intended for cancellation, SFG plans to cancel all treasury shares acquired during the acquisition period after completion of the acquisition within the above ‘3. Scheduled Acquisition Period.’

 

- The above ‘8. Treasury Shares Holdings – Other Acquisition’ represents a fractional share acquired in connection with the Company's previous comprehensive share exchange. Pursuant to Article 341-4 of the Korean Commercial Act (effective March 6, 2026), treasury shares held by a company must be cancelled within one year of acquisition. Accordingly, the Company's one treasury share acquired as a fractional share will be cancelled together with the treasury shares acquired pursuant to this decision.

 


 

- The above ‘10. Limit of buying order per day’ is the lower of [the higher of ① and ②] and ③.

1
10 % of the number of treasury shares to be acquired reported by this announcement: 669,856 common shares.
2
25% of the daily average trading volume for the last one-month period: 363,960 common shares.
3
1% of total issued and outstanding shares: 4,694,502 common shares
