Report on Termination of Treasury Share Acquisition Trust... 99.5% of 1 Billion KRW Used to Buy Back Shares, Total Treasury Shares Increase to 3.26%

GIS reports termination of its 1 billion KRW treasury share acquisition trust contract with DB Securities on May 26, 2026.
From Nov 27 to Dec 26, 2025, a total of 478,467 shares were acquired for 995,064,501 KRW, achieving 99.51% of the contract amount (shortfall due to management fees and expenses).
After termination, the company holds 1,081,084 shares (2.25%) under Article 165-3 of the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, plus 482,375 shares under Article 341-2 of the Commercial Act, totaling 1,563,459 treasury shares (approx. 3.26% of outstanding).
This buyback is part of a strategy to stabilize stock price and enhance shareholder value; though modest, it is a positive signal.
[AI Comprehensive Analysis]The termination indicates that the planned buyback was largely completed. The increased treasury shares could improve net asset value per share and reduce shares outstanding, positively impacting the stock price. However, the buyback amount is only about 0.6% of market cap, so the direct short-term impact is limited, and the lack of further buyback plans is a downside.
