---	---
Note 2)	The number of our common shares increased by 5,792,866 on August 10, 2021 due to a comprehensive stock exchange to integrate Woori Financial Capital as a wholly-owned subsidiary.
Note 3)	The number of our common shares increased by 32,474,711 as a result of a comprehensive stock exchange that took place on August 8, 2023 to convert Woori Investment Bank and Woori Venture Partners as our wholly-owned<br>subsidiaries.
Note 4)	On October 30, 2023, of the number of our common shares was reduced by 8,585,799 due to the cancellation of our treasury shares acquired through a trust agreement.

• Our paid-in capital does not match the par value of our total issued shares at year-end because our cancellation of treasury shares constitutes the cancellation of treasury shares acquired within the limits of profits available for dividends, which means that there would be no reduction in the paid-in capital of Woori Financial Group.

3.	Dividend Information

As a financial holding company, we depend on receiving dividends from our subsidiaries to pay dividends, and our subsidiaries pay us dividends within the limits of their distributable profits after deducting the necessary internal reserves required to maintain the adequate regulatory capital imposed by the financial authorities by sector. Therefore, the levels of our dividend payouts take into holistic consideration the current and future asset growth of Woori Financial Group and its subsidiaries and surplus funds after maintaining the appropriate capital adequacy ratios, among other factors.

In 2023, we established and disclosed, through our IR activities, our “Shareholder Return Policy and Capital Management Plan based on the Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) Ratio (considering both dividends and treasury share buyback/cancellation”. Accordingly, for the first time since our establishment, we paid interim dividends (KRW 180 per share for each of the second and third quarters), repurchased and canceled treasury shares worth KRW 100 billion, and achieved a TSR of approximately 33.8% through a resolution to pay a year-end dividend of KRW 640 per share.

Furthermore, to advance the dividend process (dividend decision g record date), we resolved to amend our articles of incorporation at the FY2022 shareholders’ meeting (held on March 24, 2023) and subsequently set the record date for the FY2023 annual dividend to come after the announcement of the dividend decision, effectively enhancing the predictability of dividends.

Considering the recent strengthening of capital regulations, enhanced loss-absorption capacity, and the competitive landscape, we have reviewed and made some modifications to the existing shareholder return policy, including changing the CET1 ratio criterion from 12% to 13%. The main points are as follows:

①	Maintain the current policy of “concurrently paying cash dividends and repurchasing and canceling treasury<br>shares” and gradually increase the level of such activities.
②	Modify the shareholder return policy for each CET1 ratio range as follows:
---	---
Classification	Tier 1	Tier 2	Tier 3
---	---	---	---
CET1 Ratio	~ 11.5%	11.5% ~ 13.0%	13.0% ~
Total Shareholder Return (TSR)	below 30%	30% ~ 35% Level	35% or above
			(Target TSR 50%)
Note 1)	The TSR ratio is determined annually based on the macro environments (both domestic and international) and group net profit, etc.
---	---
Note 2)	The shareholder return policy may change depending on regulatory supervision, economic conditions and management objectives, among others.
③	Promote selective growth considering Return on Risk Weighted Asset (RoRWA) for a proactive risk-weighted asset<br>management and additional capital ratio improvement through asset portfolio enhancement, such as increasing high-quality assets with low risk and high returns.
---	---

We will continue our efforts to review the criteria and scale of future shareholder return policies, aiming to enhance market predictability and shareholder value. If there are any changes to the shareholder return policy, such as the implementation of the “Enterprise Value-Up Program” in the future, we will actively communicate such updates with stakeholders through guidance and disclosure.
