Hanwha Investment & Securities Issues KRW 9.95 Billion KOSPI200-Linked ELB... Neutral Event with No Equity Dilution
Hanwha Investment & Securities is publicly issuing KRW 9.95 billion of 'Hanwha Smart ELB No. 1095 Derivative-Linked Bond (Equity-Linked Derivative Bond)' linked to the KOSPI200 index (face value KRW 10,000, issue price KRW 9,950). Subscription and payment date is June 8, 2026, with maturity on June 12, 2029.
The bond features principal protection at maturity or upon early redemption (low risk). If the underlying asset price is at or above 75% of the initial strike price on any autocall evaluation date, it is redeemed early with an annual yield of 5.25%. If conditions are not met until maturity, 100% of principal is repaid. Early redemption by investor request is possible at 95% or more of fair value (90% or more within 6 months of issuance), but principal loss may occur.
The proceeds will be used for hedging transactions and investments in financial instruments to ensure stable payment of redemption amounts. This does not directly affect existing shareholders' capital or cause dilution.
The bond is not listed on the Korea Exchange, so liquidity is limited, and it is not protected by the Depositor Protection Act. The issuer's credit rating is AA- (NICE, December 2025), and there is a risk of principal loss if financial soundness deteriorates.
