LG Electronics filed details on Tuesday of its 2026 interim dividend schedule after a board resolution.

The record date for the interim dividend is Aug. 13. It will pay a cash dividend of 500 won per share for both common and preferred shares. The total dividend is valued at 89.7 billion won, with payment scheduled for Aug. 28. LG Electronics has continued interim dividends since 2024 after setting a minimum annual dividend of 1,000 won per share.

LG Electronics has also recently completed a 100 billion won share buyback it filed in January. Following the termination of a trust contract with NH Investment & Securities, it acquired 588,589 common shares and 141,840 preferred shares, the company said.

It plans to cancel the acquired treasury shares within the year. Treasury share cancellations reduce the number of shares in circulation and lead to improved profit metrics such as earnings per share (EPS) and book value per share (BPS), the company said.

The interim dividend and share cancellation are part of a shareholder return plan filed at the end of last year. LG Electronics promised shareholder returns of 200 billion won over 2 years at the time and plans to carry out additional shareholder returns worth 100 billion won next year.
