PMA Association's total assets amount to approximately 16.7 billion KRW and total liabilities to approximately 3.05 billion KRW, with its largest investor Bitgwa Electric holding a 99.97% stake.
[AI Summary]Blue Industrial Development's largest shareholder PMA Association secured financial liquidity through a stock collateral loan via a specially related party, but this is more defensive in nature rather than for new capital raising or growth purposes. While the stake remains unchanged, the pledge creates a burden on the stock price due to potential margin calls or forced liquidation if the stock price declines.
