Dividends

KB Financial Group maintains a progressive dividend policy and aims to increase its payout ratio to 30% in the mid- to long-term, and also plans to consider acquiring and cancelling treasury shares to improve shareholder return depending on market conditions.

Although KB Financial Group has continued to increase its payout ratio, for example, from 24.8% in 2018 to 26% in 2019, it has decided on a payout ratio of 20% in 2020 based on the Financial Services Commission’s recommendation to temporarily limit the payout ratio to 20% in consideration of uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Following the termination of the Financial Services Commission’s recommendation as described above in 2021, KB Financial Group, for the first time in its history, announced a quarterly dividend of Won 750 per share as of June 30, 2021. KB Financial Group increased its payout ratio from 20% in 2020 to 26% in 2021, which was the same level of payout ratio as in 2019.

Starting with the first quarter of 2022, KB Financial Group has regularized the payout of a quarterly cash dividend of Won 500 per share each quarter, and it is targeting a payout ratio in 2022 that will be at least the same level as the payout ratio in 2021, which was 26%. The Group is continuing to strive to improve its shareholder value by pursuing various shareholder return policies, as demonstrated by its two cancellations of treasury shares in 2022, which were each completed in February and August of 2022.

Other Factors Affecting the Group’s Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The economic outlook for Korea and its financial services sector in the remainder of 2022 and for the foreseeable future remains highly uncertain as a result of, among others, (i) volatile conditions in the Korean and global economies and financial markets resulting from fluctuations in oil and commodity prices, interest and exchange rate fluctuations, higher inflation and unemployment rates, lower consumer confidence, stock market and real estate market volatility and changes in fiscal and monetary policies, (ii) adverse conditions in the Korean and global economies and financial markets resulting from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and its effects on global commodity prices, and (iii) the continuing risk of further outbreaks of COVID-19 variants and its effects on retail consumption levels.
