Woori Financial amends share exchange filing, dissenting shareholders total 0.6%

  • Woori Financial Group amended prior disclosure on its planned share exchange to confirm it will proceed as a small-scale share exchange under Korean law.
  • Written dissent notices totaled 4,396,004 shares, or 0.6% of 734,076,320 issued common shares, below 20% threshold that could have forced a shareholder meeting or triggered termination or amendment rights under share exchange agreement.
  • US securities filing approach shifted, with transaction expected to rely on Securities Act Rule 802 exemption because US holders owned below 10% of Tongyang shares as of May 6, 2026 record date, leading Woori to plan Form CB instead of previously contemplated Form F-4 registration.
