Posco Holdings to Sell Stake in POSCO DX for KRW 482 Billion

By

Posco Holdings (KRX:005490) has decided to dispose of 23.4 million common shares of its affiliate POSCO DX, valued at approximately 481.7 won, with the block trade scheduled for Sept. 7.

The divestment, representing 0.77% of the company's consolidated equity, aims to reduce the holding company discount and secure strategic investment capital, according to a bourse filing on Friday.

Alongside the share sale, Posco Holdings will enter a three-year Price Return Swap contract based on a reference price of 20,600 won per share, with settlement tied to the actual disposal value.

Post-transaction, Posco Holdings will retain a 50.0% stake in POSCO DX, maintaining control over the IT services and engineering subsidiary.
