It selects 100 leading companies based on a comprehensive evaluation of market representativeness, profitability, shareholder returns, market valuation (PBR), and capital efficiency (ROE). In particular, this year&#8217;s index was composed solely of companies that disclosed corporate value enhancement plans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-[var(--color-text)] leading-relaxed\">After being selected for the Korea Value-up Index for the first time last year, SK Gas was again named a constituent in the results of the third periodic review announced by the Korea Exchange on May 28, continuing its inclusion in the index for a second consecutive year. The periodic review results were fully reflected in the index on June 12.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-[var(--color-text)] leading-relaxed\">SK Gas said the continued inclusion reflected its stable profit-generating capacity, ongoing shareholder return policy, and mid- to long-term plans to enhance corporate value. In March, SK Gas disclosed its corporate value enhancement plan, setting targets of a dividend payout ratio of at least 25% on a consolidated basis and an annual total shareholder return (TSR) of more than 10%.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-[var(--color-text)] leading-relaxed\">In the second half of this year, the company will hold an &#8216;Investor Day&#8217; attended by top management to expand communication with the capital market. It is also pursuing a revision of its new shareholder return policy, to be applied from 2027 to 2029, with a goal of completing the overhaul within the year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-[var(--color-text)] leading-relaxed\">&#8220;Through the continued strengthening of our shareholder return policy, we have continued efforts to enhance shareholder value, including expanding the dividend from 4,000 won per share in 2020 to around 9,000 won in 2025,&#8221; an SK Gas official said. &#8220;Going forward, we will further solidify the trust of shareholders and the market based on continued growth and sincere communication with the market.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SK Gas dividend trends, 2020-2025. \/ SK Gas SK Gas (018670.KS) has been included in the Korea Value-up&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":55208,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[457],"tags":[31375,7049,31376,337,6994,864,615,31374,298],"class_list":["post-55207","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-korea-exchange","tag-corporate-value","tag-dividend","tag-investor-day","tag-korea-exchange","tag-korea-value-up-index","tag-krx","tag-shareholder-return","tag-sk-gas","tag-total-shareholder-return"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55207","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55207"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55207\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/55208"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55207"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=55207"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55207"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
