Progress and Future Plans Regarding Third-Party Allotment Paid-in Capital Increase:
The Company completed a board resolution on August 16, 2024 for a third-party allotment paid-in capital increase decision of 5 billion won (3 cases) and proceeded with related disclosures. Subsequently, multiple correction disclosures were submitted due to reasons including changes in payment dates, which resulted in delays in the paid-in capital increase procedures.
Main Reasons for Paid-in Capital Increase Delay and Non-issuance (Payment Delay):
The third-party allotment paid-in capital increase previously disclosed by the Company has been pursued according to a financing plan established under the previous management structure. However, the schedule was partially adjusted due to changes in the business environment. The main reasons for the delay in payment schedule include: changes in the investment schedule and fund execution plan of the initial payment subscriber, changes in investment conditions due to expanded financial market volatility, delays in coordinating fund execution schedules on the underwriter side, and adjustments to the Company's fund management and business schedule.
Future Implementation Plan:
The Company will make every effort to enhance the feasibility of implementation by continuously conducting consultations with relevant investors regarding the execution of the financing plan. The Company will carefully confirm the fund execution capability and implementation schedule of the payment subscriber and faithfully implement necessary procedures to ensure actual payment is made. However, details such as the payment schedule may change depending on the payment subscriber's financing conditions, investment schedule, or progress of related procedures in the future. In such cases, the Company will take necessary measures including correction disclosures without delay in accordance with applicable regulations.
