Samsung Pledges KRW 90–110 Trillion 2026 Shareholder Return, Largest in Korean History

Samsung Electronics said August 21, 2026 it will return KRW 90–110 trillion to shareholders in 2026 — dividends plus buybacks combined — calling it the largest ever by a Korean company. That's nine to eleven times its November 2024 KRW 10 trillion buyback. The board will detail the dividend-buyback split later in August.
