Matters relating to Articles of Incorporation

This information is omitted in quarterly reports in accordance with Korean disclosure rules, and we plan to include such information in our semi-annual and annual reports.

2.	Business

Business overview

We were incorporated in February 1985 under the laws of the Republic of Korea. LG Electronics and LG Semicon transferred their respective LCD business to us in 1998, and since then, our business has been focused on the research, development, manufacture and sale of products that apply display technologies such as OLED and TFT-LCD. Sorting by major sales product category, television, IT products and mobile and other products accounted for 22%, 40% and 38% of our total sales, respectively, in the three quarters of 2023. Our customers primarily consist of global set makers, and our top ten customers comprised 86% of our total sales revenue in the three quarters of 2023. As a company focused on exports, our overseas sales accounted for approximately 97% of our total sales in the three quarters of 2023. We provide close local support through our overseas sales subsidiaries located in the United States, Germany, Japan, Taiwan, China and Singapore.

We operate key production facilities in Korea, China and Vietnam, and as of September 30, 2023, our cumulative production capacity was approximately 3.8 million glass sheets for the nine month period then ended, as converted into eighth-generation sheets (2200x2500mm). In order to expand our production capacity of differentiated and competitive products such as OLED panels, our total capital expenditures on a cash out basis was around W5.2 trillion in 2022. In 2023, we expect to reduce our capital expenditure to approximately in the W3 trillion range, as we strive to secure financial stability.

The major raw materials for display panel production include glass, semiconductors, polarizers, organic matter, backlight units (“BLU”) and printed circuit boards (“PCB”), and the prices of our raw materials may fluctuate as a result of supply and demand in the market as well as changes in our purchase quantity.

As securing production capacity through large scale investments in the display industry requires a long period of time, panel prices may fluctuate due to the imbalance between the increase in production capacity and growth in demand. The sales performance of industry players is differentiated by not only the production capacity of each company but also other competitive differences arising from factors including technology, product development capability, manufacturing efficiency, quality control and customer relationships, along with the price differentiation incorporating such factors. In addition, given the high proportion of our sales overseas, our sales of display panels are denominated mainly in U.S. dollars whereas our purchases of raw materials are denominated mainly in U.S. dollars, Japanese Yen and Chinese Yuan. Accordingly, our profit margins may be affected by changes in the exchange rates between the currencies. We strive to minimize the risk relating to foreign currency denominated assets, liabilities and operating cash flow due to exchange rate fluctuations.

Our research and development expenses represent approximately 13% of our sales, and we are continually creating customer value through systematic R&D activities for new products and technologies. Leveraging our competitive R&D activities, we are leading the display market by providing differentiated values in display panel products utilizing our OLED and TFT-LCD technologies for various uses including television, IT and mobile products, as well as automobiles and industrial uses.

Industry

(1)

Industry characteristics

•

From the supply perspective, the display panel industry is technology- and capital-intensive in nature and requires mass production through achieving an economy of scale.

•

From the demand perspective, the display panel industry tends to demonstrate a high level of volatility depending on the global macroeconomic conditions, major regional sales events and/or seasonal factors.

•

Though the display panel industry is facing a short-term risk of decreased consumption of related goods and reduced confidence of investors due to continued uncertainty in the global macroeconomic environment, there are continued opportunities in the display market to meet changes in consumer lifestyle and specific consumer needs in the mid- to long-term.

•

In the market for television display panels, new opportunities from the expansion of the ultra-large TV market are expected to arise with the increase of viewable content (including over-the-top services) and more diversified uses of television (such as playing video games).

•

In the market for traditional IT products such as laptops and desktop monitors, growth opportunities for new offerings such as gaming products and portable products are expected to increase due to the continually expanding demand for digital content production and consumption that utilize IT products in light of changes in lifestyle.

•

The growth in the market for smartphone products continued to be concentrated around high value-added products using plastic OLED display panels that offer superior performance through design flexibility, low-power consumption and high resolution, in light of increased use of smartphones for mobile contents and gaming purposes with the development of 5G communication infrastructure.

(2)

Growth Potential

•

The display panel industry is expected to continue to grow, as the essential role of display products as a key device and a necessity for information and communication in daily lives of individuals as well as for industrial purposes becomes more pronounced. We are strengthening our business base with a focus on customer value and developing new markets under our strategic plan to transition our business to center around OLED, which has a strong future growth potential within the display panel industry. With respect to large-sized display panels, we are focusing on securing OLED dominance in the market through differentiated products such as “OLED.EX” and “Cinematic Sound” OLED display panels while leading the expansion into new business areas, such as transparent OLED display panels and gaming display panels. In the small-sized display panel business, we are further expanding our production capacity by securing high value-added and differentiated technology and stable operating capabilities for 6th generation plastic OLED smartphone displays while continuing to grow our small- and medium-sized OLED business in other product lines, including automotive display panels. We are also preparing to respond to new market opportunities, including automotive sound solutions, augmented reality and virtual reality. Furthermore, in the medium-sized display panel business, we are increasing the proportion of premium products such as high resolution and wide screen products based on IPS and Oxide technologies.

With respect to a wide range of products including smartphones, wearable devices, commercial products (including interactive whiteboards and video wall displays among others), industrial products (including aviation and medical equipment, among others) and automotive display products, we have continued to build a strong and diversified business portfolio and expanded our global customer base by leveraging the strength of our differentiated products that apply plastic OLED, Tandem n, IPS, in-TOUCH, Super Narrow bezel and other technologies to enable higher resolution and higher reliability.

Major customers

•

Customers “A” and “B” each accounted for more than 10% of our sales revenue in the three quarters of 2023 and 2022. Our sales revenue derived from our top ten customers comprised 86% of our total sales revenue in the three quarters of 2023 and 85% in the three quarters of 2022.

6.	Purchase Orders

•

We supply some of our products in accordance with the production plans of automobile manufacturers. However, the volume of our supply is subject to fluctuation depending on the customers’ actual order volume and future market conditions, and it is not possible to accurately predict the changes in demand resulting from changes in the domestic and global economic environment. Moreover, as of September 30, 2023, we do not have purchase order contracts that recognize revenue by measuring progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation by using the cost-based input method.

7.	Risk Management and Derivative Contracts

Risk management

(1)

Major market risks

Our business is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. Accordingly, we operate a risk management system that identifies and analyzes these risks while monitoring and managing risk level by establishing appropriate risk controls in order to ensure that such risks do not exceed certain threshold levels.

Market risk refers to the risk that income from the financial instruments that we hold or the fair value of such financial instruments will fluctuate due to fluctuations in market prices, such as exchange rates, interest rates and prices of equity securities. The objective of our market risk management system is to manage and control our exposure to market risk within an acceptable level while optimizing our profit levels.

(2)

Risk management method

As the average selling prices of OLED and TFT-LCD panels can continue to decline over time irrespective of industry-wide cyclical fluctuations, we may find it hard to manage risks associated with certain factors that are outside our control. However, we counteract such declines in average selling prices by increasing the proportion of high value added panels in our product mix while also implementing various cost reduction measures.

In addition, in order to manage our risk against foreign currency fluctuations, we eliminate such risk by adopting a policy of maintaining our net exposure risk within an acceptable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates, when necessary, to address short-term imbalances in the inflow and outflow of foreign currency funds. We also continually monitor our currency position and risk for other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, and when needed, we may from time to time enter into cross-currency interest rate swap contracts and foreign currency forward contracts. Furthermore, we have adopted a policy aimed at minimizing uncertainty and financial costs arising from interest rate fluctuations and manage our interest rate risk through periodic monitoring of interest rate trends and adoption of appropriate countermeasures.

Derivative contracts

(1)

Currency risks

•

We are exposed to currency risks on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in currencies other than in Won, our functional currency. These currencies are primarily the U.S. dollar, the Chinese Yuan and the Japanese Yen.

•

Interest on borrowings is denominated in the currency of the borrowing. Generally, borrowings are denominated in currencies that match the cash flows generated by our underlying operations, primarily in Won, the U.S. dollar and the Chinese Yuan.

•

As of the end of the reporting period, in order to avoid risks of exchange rate fluctuations on the fair value of advance received, we entered into long position currency forward contracts of US$1,200 million with Standard Chartered Bank and others. As of the end of the reporting period, among the valuation gains and losses of derivatives to which fair value hedge accounting is applied, there is no ineffective portion, and we recognized a valuation gain of W20 billion and a valuation loss of W3 billion (purchase commitment: USD 1,200 million, contract exchange rate: W1,289.11~1,310.08) as part of our foreign currency translation gains and losses. With regard to fair value hedging, the maximum expected period of exposure to fair value fluctuation risk from hedged transactions is within 28 months from the end of the reporting period.

•

As of the end of the reporting period, in order to avoid risks of interest rate fluctuations and exchange rate fluctuations on foreign currency denominated borrowings with floating interest rates, we entered into an aggregate of USD 2,065 million and CNY 345 million cross currency swap agreements with KB Kookmin Bank and others, for which we have not applied hedge accounting. Any rights or obligations arising from derivative contracts that do not apply hedge accounting are measured at fair value and are accounted for as assets and liabilities, whereas any resulting valuation gain or loss is recognized as profit or loss at the time such valuation gain or loss is incurred. We recognized a gain on valuation of derivative instruments in the amount of W294 billion and a loss on valuation of derivative instruments in the amount of W200 billion with respect to the above foreign exchange derivative instruments held during the reporting period.

(2)

Interest rate risks

•

Our exposure to interest rate risks relates primarily to our floating rate long term loan obligations. We have established and are managing interest rate risk policies to minimize uncertainty and costs associated with interest rate fluctuations by monitoring cyclical interest rate fluctuations and enacting countermeasures.

•

As of the end of the reporting period, we entered into an aggregate face value of US$1,565 million (equivalent to Won 2,104.6 billion) in cross-currency interest swap agreements with Hana Bank and others, and an aggregate of W990 billion in interest rate swap agreements with China Construction Bank and others, for which we have not applied hedge accounting. We recognized a gain on valuation of derivative instruments in the amount of W2 billion and a loss on valuation of derivative instruments in the amount of W1 billion with respect to our interest rate derivative instruments held during the reporting period.

•

We are managing the transition to alternative benchmark reference rates through the insertion of replacement clauses for financial instruments tied to interbank lending rates (“IBORs”) that have not yet been converted. As of September 30, 2023, the remaining financial instruments tied to IBORs which we are exposed to will be replaced from USD London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) rates to the Secured Overnight Financing Rates (SOFR) in accordance with certain replacement guidelines. Even if a replacement clause has been inserted, if the interest rate of the financial instrument is still tied to an IBOR, we consider such financial instrument as not yet having been converted.

11.

Environmental and Safety Matters

In order to minimize the environmental impact of our business activities, we are actively responding to environmental regulations applicable to our products and business sites.

Business environment management

We have installed and operate various types of prevention facilities to minimize the emission of environmental pollutants generated in our production process. With respect to air and water pollutants, we set and manage our internal standard at 70% of the permitted levels under the regulatory emission standards. In addition, in order to establish a resource circulation system, we operate a proprietary system to monitor waste from its generation to treatment, have developed waste treatment technology and identified suitable recycling companies to reduce the amount of waste we generate and maximize recycling.

In addition, as we were designated a target company for the greenhouse gas emission trading system in 2015, we allocate and monitor our greenhouse gas emissions every year. In order to continually promote the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, we have set a medium- to long-term goal to reduce the emission level by continually investing in facility improvements and monitoring our emission levels.

We are subject to a variety of environmental laws and regulations, and operations at our manufacturing plants are subject to regulation and periodic scheduled and unscheduled on-site inspections by the Ministry of Environment and local environmental protection authorities. The primary types of environmental laws applicable to us include the following:

(1)

Environmental pollutant emission regulations: Clean Air Conservation Act, Water Quality Conservation Act, Wastes Control Act, Environmental Impact Assessment Act, etc.

(2)

Greenhouse gas emission management: Framework Act on Carbon Neutral and Green Growth to Respond to Climate Crisis, Act on the Allocation and Trading of Greenhouse Gas Emission Permits, etc.

(3)

Other workplace environment management: Chemicals Control Act, Chemicals Registration and Evaluation Act, Soil Environment Conservation Act, etc.

Through the implementation of an environmental and energy management system, we are continuously making efforts to minimize environmental impact and reduce energy usage in all aspects of our business process. Accordingly, we have acquired and currently operate the environmental management system ISO14001 for all of our domestic and overseas production sites, and we have also obtained energy management system ISO 50001 certifications for our domestic business sites and overseas subsidiaries in Guangzhou, Nanjing and Yantai in order to build a sustainable management system. In addition, we have established company-wide safety, healthy, energy and environment management policies and manuals, which are regularly updated based on international standards. We also conduct systematic management of our business process in accordance with international standards through annual follow-up and renewal audits.

In recognition of our efforts, we were awarded the highest level, Leadership A, and received the grand prize award at the CDP Water Korea Best Awards in 2016 from the Carbon Disclosure Project, which was presided over by the Carbon Disclosure Project Korea Committee. Since then, we have continued to maintain our excellence in water conservation activities and received Leadership A recognition from 2018 to 2022. In addition, we have also received the Carbon Management Honors Club award from 2017 to 2020 and the Carbon Management Sector Honors every year since 2016 in recognition of our continued greenhouse gas emission reduction activities.

In addition, in recognition of our efforts toward recycling rate improvement and waste reduction, we were nominated as a leading company with an excellent performance in resource circulation and received a commendation from the Minister of Environment in 2020. Our overseas subsidiary in Yantai earned Platinum Zero Waste to Landfill (“ZWTL”) validation in 2021, and all of our domestic production facilities earned Gold ZWTL validation (above 95% recycling rate), and our overseas subsidiary in Nanjing earned Platinum validation in 2022. In 2022, we introduced a resource recirculation recognition program in accordance with the Korean government’s waste management policy and received circular resource certification on eight types of our discarded trays and vinyl. We will continue our efforts to reinforce our resource circulation program by minimizing waste and maximizing recycling rate.

Moreover, in line with the global trend for environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) management, we earned Gold rating (which recognizes top 5% companies) in the ESG assessment conducted by global research center EcoVadis. We have continued to pursue ESG management activities based on the spirit of “value creation for consumers” and “human-first management,” and we plan to obtain further recognition for our eco-friendly management and share relevant information with the stakeholders.

Product environment management

In order to respond to applicable domestic and overseas environmental regulations, such as the European Union’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) and Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) that restrict the use of certain hazardous substances, we operate a hazardous substance management program that implements a four-step procedure (each such step, a “Gate”) that manages various stages of our production cycle, beginning with the registration process of our business partners up to the mass production stage. In addition, in order to preemptively address four types of phthalate substances that became additionally regulated pursuant to the RoHS in 2016 and officially went into effect on July 22, 2019, we replaced the latent risk elements in advance as well as implemented a more stable management process with respect to such substances. In implementing this process, we collaborated with external agencies to ascertain regulatory trends and establish our response strategy, and we formulated and applied effective management measures through the collaborative efforts of our development, procurement, quality assurance and analysis teams.

•

Gate 01 (Business Partner Stage): An audit is conducted prior to the registration of a new business partner (including the inspection of the business partner’s hazardous substance response process)

•

Gate 02 (Parts Development Stage): An environmental evaluation of each part under development is conducted (consisting of three stages: (1) document review; (2) XRF test and (3) precision analysis)

•

Gate 03 (Product Development Stage): An environmental evaluation of the product model and product labeling are conducted (including RoHS verification)

•

Gate 04 (Mass Production Stage): Process management through the periodic testing of mass-produced parts for any hazardous substances (including rate-based tests based on risk assessment)

We operate a “Hazardous Substance Management System for Products” that effectively manages hazardous substances by classifying them into four levels: A-I, A-II, B-I, and B-II. In particular, in addition to substances prohibited by global hazardous substance regulations on products, we have designated substances causing harm to the human body and the environment as Level B substances. By developing alternative technologies and parts and applying them to our products, we continually strive to achieve a gradual reduction and elimination of non-prohibited hazardous substances.

•

Level A-I (Prohibited Substances): Prohibited substances designated under the RoHS regulations (i.e., 10 regulated substances) and those designated by specific customers

•

Level A-II (Prohibited Substances): Substances prohibited by regulations and conventions other than those covered under Level A-1 and those designated as such by customers

•

Level B-I (Substances Subject to Voluntary Reduction): Substances that are being voluntarily replaced over a certain period of time

•

Level B-II (Substances Under Observation): Substances that are not currently banned, but are expected to become prohibited in the future

Moreover, we participated in reforming IEC 62321, an international testing standard published by the International Electrotechnical Commission and used by RoHS, and the commission adopted our halogen-free combustion ion chromatography method in as IEC 62321-3-2, which was published in June 2013.

In 2017, in a joint effort with the global product testing/accreditation agency SGS, we became the first display panel company to develop SGS Eco Label, an environmentally friendly accreditation program for television display modules, and have since continuously received the SGS Eco Label accreditation for our OLED television models. In 2022, we expanded our accreditation program to cover display modules for monitors, notebook computers, tablets and automobiles, as a result of which our display modules for monitors and notebook computers received SGS Eco Label accreditation for the first time and our automotive display module became the first in the industry to receive the SGS Eco Label accreditation for its excellence in energy efficiency. In 2023, our high-end IT LCD panels (27-inch and under), in which we incorporated recycled materials for the first time, received the SGS Eco Label accreditation. In addition, our 30-inch and 55-inch transparent display products, for which we applied hazardous substance reduction technology, became the first in the industry to receive the SGS Eco Label accreditation. Moreover, in 2022, our 27-inch monitor display product that applied anti-bacterial films received the SGS Performance Mark accreditation for its anti-bacterial performance, and in 2023, our commercial display module that applied Plus-Bright energy consumption reduction technology obtained the SGS Performance Mark accreditation for its energy efficiency performance. Our high-end IT panels (27-inch and smaller) also received the same accreditation for reducing energy consumption through the implementation of proprietary algorithms and improving panel transmittance.

Also in 2022, upon assessment and verification of GHG emissions throughout its entire product life cycle, our OLED TV panel received the industry’s first Carbon Footprint Certification from The Carbon Trust, a not-for-profit company founded by the United Kingdom government that provides voluntary carbon certification services and carbon labeling schemes. In 2023, our high-end IT LCD panels (27-inch and smaller) received the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) certification from TÜV Rheinland, a global independent testing, inspection and certification agency, by achieving carbon emission reduction through the application of recycled materials and low energy consumption technologies.

In 2021, we received the “Green Technology Certification” for our advanced incell touch display technology, an eco-friendly technology with touch-sensing electrodes and transmission lines that reduce carbon emissions and the use of rare metals. We also obtained an eco-friendly certification from TUV SUD, a globally recognized accreditation agency, for excellence in resource circulation and non-use of specific hazardous substances in our OLED television and PO mobile models, following our co-development of such certification program with such agency.

In 2018, we became the first display panel company to receive the “Green Technology Certification” from the Korean Ministry of Science and ICT for improving the light efficiency technology of OLED to promote energy use reduction. In 2017, for the IPS Nano Color for LCD, we received the Quality & Performance Mark from Intertek, a global product testing/accreditation agency, by applying a technology to eliminate cadmium (Cd) and indium phosphide (InP).

Other Matters

Legal proceedings

We are a defendant in two separate civil lawsuits (comprising one damages claim in the United Kingdom filed by private plaintiffs and one damages claim in Israel filed by private plaintiffs) filed against us and certain other TFT-LCD panel manufacturers in connection with alleged anticompetitive behavior of the defendants. In each of these cases, the amount being sought has not been determined. A trial for the case in the United Kingdom was under progress in October 2023, but no trial has been scheduled for the case in Israel. While the expected outcome of each of these cases is unclear, we do not believe that any of these cases would have a material effect on our financial conditions.

Status of collateral pledged to related party

In March 2023, we entered into an agreement to obtain a long-term borrowing from LG Electronics, our largest shareholder, in the aggregate amount of W1 trillion with an interest rate of 6.06% per year. We received W0.65 trillion of the principal amount of such borrowing on March 30, 2023 and the remaining W0.35 trillion on April 20, 2023. We are responsible only for interest payments during the first two years of the borrowing term, while the principal amount is subject to repayment on a quarterly basis during the final year, until its maturity on March 30, 2026. We obtained such borrowing in order to strengthen the competitiveness of our OLED business as well as for general corporate purposes. In addition, as an ancillary, we pledged certain of our land and buildings equal to the sum of the principal and interest amount as collateral for such borrowing.

Moreover, deposits in the amount of CNY4,288 million (equivalent to W790.1 billion) have been pledged as collateral by LG Display Nanjing Co., Ltd. in connection with our borrowings in the amount of USD 200 million (equivalent to W269.0 billion) and W450 billion from Shinhan Bank and others.

Independent Auditors’ Review Report

Based on a report originally issued in Korean

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

LG Display Co., Ltd.:

Reviewed Financial Statements

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements of LG Display Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Group”) which comprise the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position as of September 30, 2023, the condensed consolidated interim statements of comprehensive loss for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and notes comprising material accounting policy information and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards No. 1034, Interim Financial Reporting, and for such internal controls as management determines necessary to enable the preparation of condensed consolidated interim financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to issue a report on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements based on our reviews.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the Review Standards for Quarterly and Semiannual Financial Statements established by the Security and Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. A review of interim financial information consists principally of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our reviews, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements referred to above are not presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards No. 1034, Interim Financial Reporting.

Other Matters

The procedures and practices utilized in the Republic of Korea to review such condensed consolidated interim financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries.

We audited the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2022 and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, which are not accompanying this review report, in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing, and our report thereon, dated March 3, 2023, expressed an unmodified opinion. The accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2022, presented for comparative purposes, is not different from that audited by us from which it was derived in all material respects.

This report is effective as of November 13, 2023, the review report date. Certain subsequent events or circumstances, which may occur between the review report date and the time of reading this report, could have a material impact on the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereto. Accordingly, the readers of the review report should understand that the above review report has not been updated to reflect the impact of such subsequent events or circumstances, if any.

26.	Financial Risk Management

The Group is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risks. The Group identifies and analyzes such risks, and controls are implemented under a risk management system to monitor and manage these risks at below an acceptable level.

(a)

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices, will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

(i)

Currency risk

The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Controlling Company, Korean won (KRW). The currencies in which these transactions primarily are denominated are USD, CNY, JPY, etc.

Interest on borrowings is accrued in the currency of the borrowing. Generally, borrowings are denominated in currencies that match the cash flows generated by the underlying operations of the Group, primarily KRW, USD and CNY.

The Group adopts policies to ensure that its net exposure is kept to a manageable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates when necessary to address short-term imbalances. In respect of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, the Group manages currency risk through continuously managing the position of foreign currencies, measuring the currency risk and, if necessary, using derivatives such as currency forwards, currency swap and others.

ii) Sensitivity analysis

A weaker won, as indicated below, against the following currencies which comprise the Group’s assets or liabilities denominated in a foreign currency as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, would have increased (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis is based on foreign currency exchange rate variances that the Group considers to be reasonably possible at the end of the reporting period. The analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, would remain constant. The changes in equity and profit or loss would have been as follows:


	September 30, 2023						December 31, 2022
(In millions of won)	Equity			Profit or loss			Equity			Profit or loss
USD (5 percent weakening)	W	(86,078	)		61,552			(114,317	)		(23,215	)
JPY (5 percent weakening)		(7,315	)		(7,394	)		(8,614	)		(8,541	)
CNY (5 percent weakening)		(178,381	)		(2	)		(105,926	)		(5	)
TWD (5 percent weakening)		118			7			68			3
EUR (5 percent weakening)		168			18			896			(281	)
PLN (5 percent weakening)		15			15			11			11
VND (5 percent weakening)		(2,544	)		(2,544	)		(6,161	)		(6,161	)

A stronger won against the above currencies as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 would have had the equal but opposite effect on the above currencies to the amounts shown above, on the basis that all other variables remain constant.

iii) Fair value hedging derivatives

In relation to advances received that are denominated in foreign currencies, the Controlling Company uses derivative instruments to hedge change of fair value due to foreign currency exchange rate changes. As of September 30, 2023, there is no ineffective portion of the gain or loss on valuation of derivatives to which change of fair value hedging accounting has been applied and gain and loss on valuation amounting to W20,014 million and W2,609 million, respectively, (contracted buying amount: USD 1,200 million, contracted exchange rate: W1,289.11 ~ 1,310.08) are recognized in profit or loss.

(ii) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises principally from the Group’s variable interest-bearing bonds and borrowings. The Group establishes and applies its policy to reduce uncertainty arising from fluctuations in interest rates and to minimize finance cost and manages interest rate risk by monitoring of trends of fluctuations in interest rate and establishing plan for countermeasures. Meanwhile, the Group entered into cross currency interest rate swap contracts amounting to USD 1,565 million (W2,104,612 million) and interest rate swap contracts amounting to W990,000 million in notional amount to hedge interest rate risk with respect to variable interest-bearing borrowings.

i) Profile

The interest rate profile of the Group’s interest-bearing financial instruments as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is as follows:


(In millions of won)	September 30, 2023			December 31, 2022
Fixed rate instruments
Financial assets	W	4,087,313			3,547,256
Financial liabilities		(6,994,848	)		(6,025,365	)

Variable rate instruments
Financial liabilities	W	(10,492,532	)		(8,966,045	)

ii) Equity and profit or loss sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, a change of 100 basis points in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below for the respective following 12 month periods. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant.


	Equity					Profit or loss
(In millions of won)	1%p increase			1%p decrease		1%p increase			1%p decrease
September 30, 2023
Variable rate instruments (*)	W	(57,523	)		57,523		(57,523	)		57,523

(iii) Managing interest rate benchmark reform and associated risks

In response to the IBOR interest rate reform, the Group have completed the process of transitioning to an alternative benchmark rate. As of September 30, 2023, for the remaining IBORs with exposed consolidated entities, the interest rate benchmark will be changed from USD LIBOR to SOFR in the future, subject to the alternative provisions. The Group considers that a contract is not yet transitioned to an alternative benchmark rate when interest rate under the contract is indexed to a benchmark rate that is still subject to IBOR reform, even if it includes a fallback clause that deals with the cessation of the existing IBOR(“unreformed contracts”). As of September 30, 2023, the total amounts of unreformed contracts and those with appropriate fallback language are as follows:


(In millions of won)	Total amount of unreformed contracts		Amount with appropriate fallback clause
Non-derivative financial liabilities
Borrowings	W	134,480		134,480
Derivative assets
Cross currency interest rate swap contracts	W	198,533		198,533

(b)

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers.

The Group’s exposure to credit risk of trade and other receivables is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management believes that the default risk of the country in which each customer operates, do not have a significant influence on credit risk since the majority of the customers are global electronic appliance manufacturers operating in global markets.

The Group establishes credit limits for each customer and each new customer is analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively before determining whether to utilize third party guarantees, insurance or factoring as appropriate.

In relation to the impairment of financial assets subsequent to initial recognition, the Group recognizes the changes in expected credit loss (“ECL”) in profit or loss at each reporting date.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or other financial assets. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.

The Group has historically been able to satisfy its cash requirements from cash flows from operations and debt and equity financing. To the extent that the Group does not generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its capital requirements, the Group may rely on other financing activities, such as long-term borrowings and offerings of debt instruments, equity-linked and other debt instruments. In addition, the Group maintains a line of credit with various banks.

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments, as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Determination of fair value

(i)

Measurement of fair value

A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

Current assets and liabilities

The carrying amounts approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

ii)

Trade receivables and other receivables

The fair value of trade and other receivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date. This fair value is determined for disclosure purposes. The carrying amounts of current receivables approximate their fair value.

iii)

Investments in equity and debt securities

The fair value of marketable financial assets at FVTPL and FVOCI is determined by reference to their quoted closing bid price at the reporting date. The fair value of non-marketable instruments is determined using the results of fair value assessment performed by external valuation institutions and others.

iv)

Non-derivative financial liabilities

Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, except for the liabilities at FVTPL, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.

Derivatives

The inputs used to measure the fair value of currency forward and cross currency interest rate swap are calculated based on the exchange rates and interest rates observable in the market at the reporting date.

Fair values of financial assets and liabilities

i) Fair value hierarchy

Financial instruments carried at fair value are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques. The different levels have been defined as follows:

•

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

•

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly

•

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data

ii) Financial instruments measured at fair value

Fair value hierarchy classifications of the financial instruments that are measured at fair value as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are as follows:

25.	Financial Risk Management

The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risks. The Company identifies and analyzes such risks, and controls are implemented under a risk management system to monitor and manage these risks at below an acceptable level.

(a)

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

(i)

Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company, Korean won (KRW). The currencies in which these transactions primarily are denominated are USD, JPY, etc.

The Company adopts policies to ensure that its net exposure is kept to a manageable level by buying or selling foreign currencies at spot rates when necessary to address short-term imbalances. In respect of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, the Company manages currency risk through continuously managing the position of foreign currencies, measuring the currency risk and, if necessary, using derivatives such as currency forwards, currency swap and others.

ii) Sensitivity analysis

A weaker won, as indicated below, against the following currencies which comprise the Company’s assets or liabilities denominated in a foreign currency as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, would have increased (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis is based on foreign currency exchange rate variances that the Company considers to be reasonably possible at the end of the reporting period. The analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, would remain constant. The changes in equity and profit or loss would have been as follows:


	September 30, 2023						December 31, 2022
(In millions of won)	Equity			Profit or loss			Equity			Profit or loss
USD (5 percent weakening)	W	(182,695	)		(182,695	)		(207,623	)		(207,623	)

iii) Fair value hedging derivatives

In relation to advances received that are denominated in foreign currencies, the Company uses derivative instruments to hedge change of fair value due to foreign currency exchange rate changes. As of September 30, 2023, there is no ineffective portion of the gain or loss on valuation of derivatives to which change of fair value hedging accounting has been applied and gain and loss on valuation amounting to W20,014 million and W2,609 million, respectively, (contracted buying amount: USD 1,200 million, contracted exchange rate: W1,289.11~1,310.08) are recognized in profit or loss.

(ii) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises principally from the Company’s variable interest-bearing bonds and borrowings. The Company establishes and applies its policy to reduce uncertainty arising from fluctuations in interest rates and to minimize finance cost and manages interest rate risk by monitoring of trends of fluctuations in interest rate and establishing plan for countermeasures. Meanwhile, the Company entered into cross currency interest rate swap contracts amounting to USD 1,565 million (W2,104,612 million) and interest rate swap contracts amounting to W990,000 million in notional amount to hedge interest rate risk with respect to variable interest bearing borrowings.

i) Profile

The interest rate profile of the Company’s interest-bearing financial instruments as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is as follows:


(In millions of won)	September 30, 2023			December 31, 2022

(iii) Managing interest rate benchmark reform and associated risks

In response to the IBOR interest rate reform, the company have completed the process of transitioning to an alternative benchmark rate. As of September 30, 2023, for the remaining IBORs, the interest rate benchmark will be changed from USD LIBOR to SOFR in the future, subject to the alternative provisions. The Company considers that a contract is not yet transitioned to an alternative benchmark rate when interest rate under the contract is indexed to a benchmark rate that is still subject to IBOR reform, even if it includes a fallback clause that deals with the cessation of the existing IBOR(“unreformed contracts”). As of September 30, 2023, the total amounts of unreformed contracts and those with appropriate fallback language are as follows:


(In millions of won)	Total amount of unreformed contracts		Amount with appropriate fallback clause
Non-derivative financial liabilities
Borrowings	W	134,480		134,480
Derivative assets
Cross currency interest rate swap contracts	W	198,533		198,533

(b)

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers.

The Company’s exposure to credit risk of trade and other receivables is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management believes that the default risk of the country in which each customer operates, do not have a significant influence on credit risk since the majority of the customers are global electronic appliance manufacturers operating in global markets.

The Company establishes credit limits for each customer and each new customer is analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively before determining whether to utilize third party guarantees, insurance or factoring as appropriate.

In relation to the impairment of financial assets subsequent to initial recognition, the Company recognizes the changes in expected credit loss (“ECL”) in profit or loss at each reporting date.

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are as follows:


(In millions of won)	September 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Financial assets carried at amortized cost
Cash equivalents	W	148,684		692,312
Deposits in banks		20,011		42,815
Trade accounts and notes receivable, net		2,620,982		2,475,920
Non-trade receivables		73,915		133,991
Accrued income		92		1,125
Deposits		8,230		8,317
Short-term loans		24,208		30,062
Long-term loans		41,691		58,806
Long-term non-trade receivables		16,121		13,364

Financial assets effective for fair value hedging
Derivatives	W	20,014		—

	W	3,270,577		3,688,589

In addition to the financial assets above, as of September 30, 2023, the Company provides payment guarantees in connection with the principal amount of credit facilities amounting to USD 1,532 million (W2,060,532 million) (see note 15).

Trade accounts and notes receivable are insured in order for the Company to manage credit risk if they do not meet the Company’s internal credit ratings. Uninsured trade accounts and notes receivable are managed by continuous monitoring of internal credit rating standards established by the Company and seeking insurance coverage, if necessary.

(c)

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or other financial assets. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.

The Company has historically been able to satisfy its cash requirements from cash flows from operations and debt and equity financing. To the extent that the Company does not generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its capital requirements, the Company may rely on other financing activities, such as long-term borrowings and offerings of debt instruments, equity-linked and other debt instruments. In addition, the Company maintains a line of credit with various banks.

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments, as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.


			September 30, 2023
