Samsung Electronics announced on the 16th that it will hold the 52nd regular shareholders’ meeting at the Suwon Convention Center in Gyeonggi-do on March 17th.
The agenda of this general shareholders’ meeting is the 52nd term end-of-year dividend, which adds 1.07 trillion won (1578 won per share) of special dividend. Approval of the 52nd financial statements is also expected.
In addition, the agenda for re-appointment of outside directors Park Byeong-guk, Kim Jong-hoon, and internal directors Kim Ki-nam, Kim Hyun-seok, and Ko Dong-jin will be proposed, and the re-appointment of outside director Kim Seon-wook, who is a member of the Audit Committee, is a separate agenda. Along with this, approval of the compensation limit for directors this year is also expected to proceed.
Since last year, Samsung Electronics has introduced an electronic voting system so that shareholders can exercise their voting rights even if they do not attend the general shareholders’ meeting. Shareholders can participate in the e-voting from 9 am on March 7 to 5 pm on the 16th. After registering shareholder information in the electronic voting system, you can check the convocation announcement and detailed details of each agenda, and exercise voting rights through the’voting event’ button for each agenda. The KFTC’s electronic voting system enables 24-hour electronic voting for shareholders’ convenience from this year.
Samsung Electronics is introducing online broadcasting for the first time this year for the convenience of shareholders. In early March, a pre-application for online broadcast is scheduled to be announced through the Samsung Electronics website. Shareholders can apply for online broadcasting through a separate site and pre-register questions for each agenda. The application period is the same as the electronic voting period.
Shareholders who apply can watch the entire shareholders’ meeting in real time and ask questions. However, it is not possible to vote online on the agenda of the shareholders’ meeting while watching the online broadcast on the day of the shareholders’ meeting according to the current law.
