Samsung Electronics has decided to grant 1,132,477 shares of common treasury stock to 928 executives as long-term performance incentives in an effort to strengthen responsible management and drive long-term value creation.

Samsung Electronics announced on the 13th that it held a board of directors meeting and approved the disposal of treasury shares with these details.

The total number of treasury shares to be disposed of is 1,132,477, with a price per share of 285,000 won. The total planned disposal amount is 322,759,450,000 won, and the scheduled disposal date is July 13. The treasury shares will be transferred directly from the company's holding account to the individual accounts of 928 eligible executives as of the disposal date. Samsung Electronics has appointed Samsung Securities, Shinhan Investment & Securities, and KB Securities as commissioned brokerage firms for this disposal.

The share price for the disposal was calculated based on the closing price on the Korea Exchange on July 10, 2026, the day before the board resolution date. However, the actual disposal amount may vary depending on the stock price at the time of disposal. The company explained that the number of recipients and the number of shares to be disposed of may also change within the board-approved limit, depending on the number of eligible recipients and stock price fluctuations at the time of payment.

Meanwhile, as of the disposal decision, Samsung Electronics held 81,003,271 shares of common treasury stock, representing approximately 1.4% of total issued shares. The 1,132,477 shares to be disposed of this time account for only about 0.019% of the total issued shares (5,846,278,608 common shares). Samsung Electronics expects that the stock dilution effect from this disposal will be negligible.
