LG Innotek has published its '2025–2026 Sustainability Report,' containing its sustainable management strategies and ESG performance. The market evaluated these efforts to strengthen ESG management as a positive factor for enhancing corporate value, and on the same day, the stock recorded a surge of over 7%, recovering to the 980,000 KRW level.

LG Innotek announced on the 30th that it disclosed the report through a voluntary disclosure. The report was prepared based on the fiscal year from January 1 to December 31, 2025, with some key business activities reflecting content up to the first half of 2026. In addition, it includes quantitative data from the past three years (2023–2025), structured to allow a clear view of the trends in key indicators at a glance.

In line with global sustainability disclosure standards, the report was prepared based on the GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) Standards 2021, with K-IFRS applied to financial information. Disclosure guidelines from TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures), SASB (Sustainability Accounting Standards Board), and ESRS (European Sustainability Reporting Standards) were also partially reflected to enhance reliability. In particular, the Korea Productivity Center (KPC) conducted third-party verification to ensure the transparency of the disclosure.

Detailed contents include the CEO's message, ESG vision and operational system, stakeholder engagement, and the results of the Double Materiality Assessment. Key initiatives by sector are as follows: • Environmental (E): Climate change response and environmental management strategy • Social (S): Respect for human rights, safety and health, human resource management, building a sustainable supply chain, and social contribution activities • Governance (G): Enhanced management transparency, ethical management, compliance, risk management, and information security systems

Since 2010, LG Innotek has been publishing a sustainability report every year to transparently disclose its ESG information. Going forward, the company plans to consistently share its sustainable management performance and expand communication with stakeholders.

The market analysis suggests that in addition to expectations for growth in high-value semiconductor substrates and AI and automotive components, the company's enhanced ESG management efforts have led its corporate value to be evaluated even more positively.
