LG Group Annual Affiliate Status Disclosure: 63 Domestic Affiliates, Total Assets of 186.3 Trillion KRW, Expansion into Robotics and Bio Energy
LG Group is a large conglomerate under controlling shareholder Kwang-mo Koo, with 63 domestic affiliates (12 listed) and 317 overseas affiliates. As of end-2025, total assets were 186.3 trillion KRW, equity 90.4 trillion KRW, revenue 136.0 trillion KRW, and net income 4.2 trillion KRW.
Over the past year, 32 new affiliates including Bear Robotics (robotics), OSO Group (hot water solutions), and LG Eni Bio Refining (biofuel) were added, actively expanding the business portfolio into robotics, AI, and eco-friendly energy.
Key subsidiaries: LG Energy Solution reported a net loss of 572.7 billion KRW (due to weak battery market), LG Display lost 98.2 billion KRW, but LG Chem (1.4 trillion KRW profit) and LG Electronics (1.0 trillion KRW profit) underpinned overall group profitability.
Total borrowings stood at approximately 48.1 trillion KRW (debt-to-equity ratio 106.1%), and inter-affiliate debt guarantees reached 19.3 trillion KRW, warranting monitoring of financial leverage risks.
[AI Summary]This disclosure is a routine report on LG Group's governance and financial status, with no specific positive or negative events. The expansion into robotics, AI, and bio businesses is positive for long-term growth drivers. However, weak performance at key battery and display subsidiaries and high debt guarantees may weigh on short-term investor sentiment.
