Daekyo Raises 20.6B KRW via OTC Sale of 1.8M Treasury Shares... Funds for New Growth in Culture/Arts and Education IP

Daekyo disposed 1.8 million common treasury shares at 1,145 KRW per share via OTC sale to affiliate Daekyo Holdings on May 28, 2026, raising a total of 20.6 billion KRW.
The disposal price is based on the closing price on the disposal date and is close to the market price, limiting dilution concerns for existing shareholders.
The proceeds will fund new growth initiatives: the 'Studio Ghibli Exhibition in Jeju' (opening July 2026) and additional investment in global education IP 'Numberblocks and Alphablocks'.
As treasury shares are sold, total issued shares remain unchanged while floating shares increase, resulting in minimal per-share dilution. The capital raised supports long-term value enhancement through growth investments.
[AI Comprehensive Analysis]This disclosure is positive as the company raised funds for new investments at market price without significant dilution. However, execution risk remains due to uncertainty in investment outcomes, warranting close monitoring of future performance.
