NH Investment & Securities Launches Subscription for KRW 100 Billion ELS Linked to Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix - Capital Neutral with No Dilution for Existing Shareholders
NH Investment & Securities filed a supplementary shelf registration on July 6, 2026, to publicly offer N2 Retirement Pension ELS Series 69 and 70, each worth KRW 5 billion, totaling KRW 10 billion, linked to Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix.
These are partial principal-protected equity-linked securities not covered by depositor protection, available only through retirement pension accounts DB, DC, and IRP.
Series 69 is rated normal risk targeting up to 7.3% annual return, while Series 70 is high risk targeting up to 18.4% annual return but with a maximum 20% principal loss.
NH Investment & Securities holds an AA+ credit rating as of March 25, 2026, from Korea Corporate Rating. This issuance does not dilute existing shareholders' equity.
The company paid a cash dividend of 1,300 won per common share for fiscal year 2025, increasing shareholder returns compared to the prior year.
Proceeds will be used for hedging and investment in high-grade debt securities to ensure stable repayment.
[AI Summary]This ELS issuance by NH Investment & Securities is a debt financing without equity dilution, offering tailored products for retirement pension investors. Given the AA+ credit rating and solid financial structure, credit risk is low; however, investors should consider potential principal loss due to underlying stock volatility and knock-in conditions. The company's increased dividend payout in 2025 reflects positive shareholder return policy.
