As the largest shareholder of DaedongMetal, DAEDONG Corporation increased its share count by 3,029,580 shares through a 1-to-1 stock dividend and a 5-to-1 stock split. However, conversion of convertible bonds issued in 2018 totaling 789,166 shares increased total outstanding shares, dropping its stake from 70.13% to 52.78%.

The stock dividend and split improve liquidity but do not alter fundamental enterprise value. This filing is a routine governance disclosure with no change in control.
[AI Summary]DAEDONG's ownership in DaedongMetal decreased by 17.35 percentage points due to CB conversion, a dilution from debt-to-equity conversion with no new capital inflow. This lacks growth catalyst but control remains stable. Short-term stock pressure may arise from dilution perception.
