Krafton Announces Three-Year Shareholder Return Policy, Totaling 1 Trillion Won

Krafton Co., Ltd. announced on the 9th that it has finalized its three-year shareholder return policy from 2026 to 2028 through a board meeting. Under this policy, Krafton will implement shareholder returns totaling over KRW 1 trillion over the next three years, representing a 44% increase over the KRW 693 billion implemented between 2023 and 2025.

The shareholder return plan consists of cash dividends, treasury stock repurchase, and cancellation of all treasury shares. Cash dividends will be paid in the form of tax-free reduced dividends to minority shareholders, amounting to KRW 100 billion annually over three years. The remaining KRW 700 billion or more will be used to repurchase treasury shares, which will then be cancelled to enhance shareholder value. The company also leaves open the possibility of further expansion of the dividend payout scale, depending on market conditions and financial conditions.

Kim Chang-han, CEO of Krafton, said, “This shareholder return policy is a decision that reflects our will to increase shareholder value,” and added, “We will continue to develop global games and make strategic investments while simultaneously returning shares based on stable cash flow generation.”

Krafton plans to implement a three-year shareholder return plan in stages, starting with the first round of stock acquisition worth KRW 200 billion starting February 10th.
