LG Chem Plans KRW 300 Billion Share Buyback With LG Energy Solution Stake Sale Proceeds

• LG Chem plans to sell KRW 2.5 trillion of LG Energy Solution shares under an Oct. 28, 2026 decision.
• About KRW 400 billion, roughly 20% of after-tax proceeds, is earmarked for shareholder returns, balancing financial health with future investment needs.
• Share buybacks will use KRW 300 billion; the remainder will fund FY2026 year-end dividends, with the final dividend amount determined later.
• The broader plan targets gradually reducing its LG Energy Solution holding to about 70% over roughly five years.
• Future shareholder returns will prioritize share buybacks and cancellations when shares are deemed undervalued, while maintaining dividend stability.
