Korea Zinc said it met all 15 key indicators, recording a compliance rate of 100%. The key indicators in the corporate governance report are criteria for assessing matters such as the protection of shareholder rights, board independence, and internal control systems. These indicators quantify the level of governance at listed companies.

The company said its compliance rate last year was 80%. The average compliance rate for KOSPI-listed companies was 54.3%. The comparison figures show the extent of the company's compliance improvements.

The company said it improved 3 previously unmet items and met all indicators. The company said the improvements included publishing the notice convening the shareholder meeting 4 weeks in advance, holding the meeting on a date that avoids peak shareholder meeting days, and providing predictability for cash dividends. It said this addressed procedures that had previously been inadequate.

The52 annual general meeting notice was posted 29 days before the meeting, on 2026the year 2, month 23, and day. The company said it had secured time to review the agenda. The change in the timing of the announcement affects shareholders’ access to information.

The company said the shareholders’ meeting was held outside the peak dates for such meetings, and that it combined electronic voting with proxy solicitation. It explained that combining electronic voting and other measures made participation more convenient for shareholders. The relevant disclosures were reflected on the company’s website and in its annual report.

The company said the results of this report showed that it had strengthened disclosures related to corporate governance. It added that it would continue its disclosures and communication with shareholders.
