Corporate Governance

1. Corporate Governance Policy

(1) Shareholders

KEPCO has been striving for transparent governance since its listing on the stock market to protect shareholders’ rights and enhance shareholder value.

(2) Board of Directors

In order to ensure transparency in its corporate governance, anyone interested in KEPCO’s corporate governance practice can access, on its corporate website, Articles of Incorporation of KEPCO, Regulations Concerning the Board of Directors, Regulations Concerning Operations of the Audit Committee and KEPCO’s other internal regulations related to its corporate governance.

To ensure the transparency of its corporate governance through independent decision-making processes, KEPCO maintains non-standing directors as a majority of the Board. The Board of Directors is composed of seven standing directors, including the CEO, and eight non-standing directors. The chairperson of the Board of Directors is appointed from among non-standing directors to ensure the fair collection of opinions and suggestions regarding overall management.

Furthermore, non-standing directors are elected from among professionals with expertise in finance, accounting, labor management and energy industries, so as to fulfill their roles of consulting and advising on the agenda of board meetings.

KEPCO strives to provide sufficient information on each agenda to directors before the board meeting so that the directors can make an informed decision.

(3) Audit

The Audit Committee inspects the accounting and management issues, and also evaluates the operation of Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Moreover, it supervises the performance of directors and management to ensure that they make rational business decisions.

The Audit Committee consists of three directors, two of whom are required to be non-standing directors. The chairperson of the committee is required to be a non-standing director. One member of the Audit Committee is a standing director and is appointed upon the recommendation of the Director Nomination Committee and by the resolution of the general meeting of shareholders. Other members of the Audit Committee who are non-standing directors are appointed from among non-standing directors and by the resolution of the general meeting of shareholders.

The Audit Committee maintains objectivity in conducting audits, by working separately from the directors and management. If it is necessary to carry out its duties, the committee may request any related executive or employee to attend committee meetings, to submit reports and to state his or her opinion. Also, the committee may seek advice from external experts at the company’s expense.

2.	Key Characteristics of Corporate Governance Structure

(1) Organization of the Board of Directors

As the highest decision-making body of the company, the Board of Directors is composed of seven standing directors (including the CEO) and eight non-standing directors, securing its independence by having non-executive directors constitute a majority of the Board. Non-standing directors are elected from candidates with ample industrial or professional knowledge and experience without discrimination based on sex, race, age, nationality or cultural background so as to respond flexibly and professionally to a diversifying business environment. For fair and transparent operation of the Board of Directors, the chairperson is appointed from among non-standing directors following the review and resolution of the Committee for Management of Public Institutions under the Ministry of Climate, Energy and Environment pursuant to Article 21 of the Act on the Management of Public Institutions.

(2) Subcommittees in the Board of Directors

KEPCO operates four subcommittees under the Board of Directors, namely, the Audit Committee, the ESG Committee, the Director Nomination Committee, and the Power System Committee to strengthen the preliminary review and support the rational decision-making of the Board of Directors. The Audit Committee consists of two non-standing directors and one standing director, at least one of whom is appointed from among accounting or financial experts to conduct an audit of business and accounting. In December 2020, as the first public enterprise in Korea, KEPCO additionally established an Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) Committee under its Board of Directors to reinforce its ESG-based management system. The ESG Committee consists of three non-standing directors and one standing director and is responsible for resolving major management issues related to ESG, establishing ESG management strategies and business plans, checking on the overall direction of sustainable management and monitoring achievements and issues related to such performance. The Director Nomination Committee is in charge of the appointment of new directors. The Committee members consist of non-standing directors and other external members selected by the Board of Directors. The total number of members must be not less than five and not more than fifteen. The Board of Directors appoints external members comprising less than half of the members to maintain independence in the appointment of directors. The Power System Committee consists of three non-standing directors and one standing director and is in charge of the preliminary review of major agendas that require board approval, the deliberation of key management issues related to the power system, such as major plans for the power system requested by the board, and the inspection and feedback on the implementation of key policy plans and achievements related to the power system.

(3) Expertise of subcommittees in the Board of Directors

In order to enhance the expertise of its Board of Directors, KEPCO considers each candidate’s expertise at the document screening stage for director candidates and has actively recruited many experts in various fields. KEPCO appoints members of subcommittees such as the ESG Committee or the Audit Committee based on the professional fields of each non-standing director and also obtains comprehensive advice from the ESG Advisory Committee and the Audit Advisory Committee which are composed of external specialists. In addition, KEPCO strives to strengthen the expertise of its directors by regularly providing education related to internal control over financial reporting and ESG.

The Audit Committee consists of three directors, two of whom are required to be non-standing directors and one standing director, and at least one of whom is appointed from among accounting or financial experts to conduct an audit of business and accounting. The ESG Committee consists of three non-standing directors and one standing director and it is in charge of deliberating on major management issues related to ESG, establishing ESG management strategies and related business plans, checking on the overall direction of sustainable management and monitoring and supervising achievements and issues related to such performance. The Director Nomination Committee, when the appointment of executives is required, is composed of a majority of non-standing directors and not less than five and not more than fifteen external members selected by the Board of Directors through a board resolution, thereby ensuring independence in the appointment of directors. The Power System Committee consists of three non-standing directors and one standing director and is in charge of the preliminary review of major agendas that require board approval in the power system sector, the deliberation of key management issues related to the power system such as major plans for the power system requested by the board, and the inspection and feedback on the implementation of key policy plans and achievements related to the power system. In addition, in order to enhance expertise, KEPCO strives to strengthen the capability of its directors by regularly providing education related to internal control over financial reporting and ESG.

(4) Independence of the Board of Directors

KEPCO ensures the independence of its Board of Directors so that the directors can carry out their duties of ‘checks and balances’ in a responsible manner. KEPCO supports directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to support their decision-making with a firm conviction, and prohibits any director who has a special interest in an agenda item from participating in the related board resolution. KEPCO also strictly scrutinizes whether a non-standing director candidate has any related-party transaction that would disqualify such candidate from his or her directorship under the Korean Commercial Act.

III.

Shareholders

Core Principle 1. Shareholders’ Rights

Detailed Principle 1-① Providing sufficient information on the General Meeting of Shareholders

To comply with the legal deadline, KEPCO makes a public disclosure immediately after the board resolution to hold a general meeting of shareholders and announces the time, place, agenda and other details of the meeting at least two weeks before the date of the meeting.

KEPCO’s general meetings of shareholders in the period from January 2025 to June 2026 were held as follows:


Type	Date of Resolution	Date of Notice	Date of Meeting	Period of Notice
Annual General Meeting	Feb. 28, 2025	Mar. 11, 2025	Mar. 26, 2025	15 days
Annual General Meeting	Feb. 26, 2026	Mar. 10, 2026	Mar. 25, 2026	15 days
Extraordinary General Meeting	Dec. 20, 2024	Dec. 20, 2024	Jan. 6, 2025	17 days
	May 9, 2025	May 13, 2025	May 28, 2025	15 days
	Apr. 10, 2026	Apr. 10, 2026	Apr. 27, 2026	17 days
	May 6, 2026	May 6, 2026	May 21, 2026	15 days

Detailed Principle 1-② Encourage shareholders to participate in the General Meeting

KEPCO implements an electronic voting system so that shareholders can participate in the General Meeting and exercise their rights smoothly. Also, in order to facilitate shareholders’ attendance in 2024 and 2025, the Annual General Meetings were held on a date other than the dates that the Korea Listed Companies Association recommends avoiding as there are a concentrated number of companies holding their annual general meetings on those dates.

However, with respect to the 65th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, although we made efforts to avoid holding the meeting on a peak meeting date, after comprehensively considering shareholders’ need for sufficient time to review the agenda items, the voting period, and the financial closing schedule, we were unavoidably required to hold the meeting on a peak meeting date. KEPCO has adopted an electronic voting system to maximize shareholder participation in the general meeting and is making its best efforts to ensure that shareholders can exercise their voting rights smoothly through this system. We will continue to seek ways to enable greater shareholder participation in the future.

A list of the agenda items voted on at the general meetings of shareholders in the period from January 2025 to June 2026 is provided below:


Date of Meeting	Resolution	Agenda	Outstanding Shares		Shares Voted		Shares for (Approval Rate*)

* Under the Korean Commercial Act, the voting rights of the shareholders who hold shares in excess of three percent of the total number of issued shares are limited to three percent when appointing members of the Audit Committee.

* Approval rate is the percentage of the shares voting in favor to the shares voted.

Detailed Principle 1-③ Proposal Right of Shareholders

KEPCO provides information on the proposal right of shareholders via telephone or in writing, but there have been very few cases of shareholders’ proposals at the General Meeting so far. KEPCO will consistently strive to guarantee the shareholders’ proposal right in accordance with the relevant laws and provide the relevant information on such right through KEPCO’s corporate website.

KEPCO assures the proposal right of shareholders in accordance with requirements provided under the Korean Commercial Act. When a certain agenda item is proposed and unless it is against the laws or the Articles of Incorporation of KEPCO, it shall be submitted to the general meeting of shareholders after the resolution by the Board of Directors.

Every shareholder who attends the general meeting of shareholders has the right to inquire about and request explanations of the agenda items, unless he or she obviously intends to obstruct the proceedings of the meeting.

Shareholders may make a proposal for the general meeting of shareholders, but no shareholder proposal has been submitted to the meetings held by June 2026.

Detailed Principle 1-④ Shareholder Return Policy

In accordance with provisions in the Korean Commercial Act, Articles of Incorporation of KEPCO and the KEPCO Act, KEPCO is entitled to pay out dividends. KEPCO determines dividends considering its investment plan, future cash flow and financial structure to enhance shareholder value and increase shareholder return. However, as the resolution of the large-scale accumulated deficit that persisted from 2021 to 2023 is urgent, and a flexible dividend policy is required to respond to the rapidly changing internal and external business environments, KEPCO has not established or announced a mid- to long-term shareholder return policy.

KEPCO’s dividend payments are finally determined at the annual general meeting of shareholders through resolutions by the Board of Directors and announced immediately via DART. As the timing of the turnaround is uncertain due to the recently accumulated deficit, KEPCO has not announced a specific dividend policy. KEPCO discloses key dividend indicators for the most recent three fiscal years in its business reports and semi-annual reports, and provides dividend payment information for the most recent five fiscal years on its corporate website.

Following a return to profitability in the fiscal year 2025, KEPCO paid a dividend of Won 1,542 per share. The dividend record date was the fiscal year end of December 31, 2025, in accordance with Article 15 of KEPCO’s Articles of Incorporation. The dividend was finalized on March 25, 2026, at the annual general meeting of shareholders, upon which the shareholders eligible for dividends and the dividend amount were confirmed. We will strive to enhance the predictability of dividends for our shareholders in the future.

Detailed Principle 1-⑤ Shareholders’ rights to dividends

Pursuant to Article 14 of the KEPCO Act, KEPCO may pay dividends only when profit is generated as a result of the settlement of accounts for a fiscal year. Accordingly, KEPCO was unable to pay dividends for fiscal year 2023 due to a net loss. Although financial conditions remained challenging in fiscal years 2024 and 2025 due to high debt-to-equity ratios (619% in fiscal year 2024 and 444% in fiscal year 2025), despite a return to profitability, KEPCO paid dividends at the maximum level possible within the range that would allow it to secure future financial soundness, in order to respect shareholders’ rights to receive an appropriate level of return on KEPCO’s profits.

As a listed public company, KEPCO implements shareholder returns. Although KEPCO has not paid any dividend for the fiscal year 2023 due to deficits, KEPCO is striving to pay a dividend and faithfully provide information on past dividends to shareholders. The distributable profit for 2024 and 2025 includes net income based on the separate financial statements.


					Cash Dividend
	Fiscal Year		Share Dividend		Distributable Profit (KRW)		Total Dividend (KRW)		Dividend Per Share (KRW)		Dividend Yield (%)
Common Shares		2025		12		7,249,899,527,855		989,908,606,734		1,542		3.2
Class Shares		2025		12		—		—		—		—
Common Shares		2024		—		829,338,815,456		136,738,348,401		213		1.0
Class Shares		2024		—		—		—		—		—

Core Principle 2. Fair and Equitable Treatment of Shareholders

Detailed Principle 2-① Issued Shares and Disclosure of Company Information

Currently, KEPCO’s authorized share capital is as follows.


	Authorized Shares		Issued Shares		Issued Rate			Note
Common Shares		1,200,000,000		641,964,077		53.50	%		Registered Common Shares
Class Shares		150,000,000		—		0.00	%		Non-Voting Preferred Shares

* Par value of a share is KRW 5,000.

* Issuance rate is the percentage of the issued shares to the authorized shares.

Issued common shares are all registered common shares, and each share shall have one voting right. The voting rights of the shareholders who hold shares in excess of three percent of the total number of issued shares are limited to three percent when it comes to the agenda of election of members of the Audit Committee, under the Korean Commercial Act.

KEPCO makes its company information public through its corporate website and electronic disclosure systems (DART, KIND) in order to provide information in a fair, equitable and timely manner.

KEPCO holds IR meetings in relation to quarterly earnings releases in February, May, August and November. Moreover, following the relocation of its headquarters to Naju City, KEPCO holds weekly IR meetings in Seoul and conference calls with institutional investors. KEPCO announces its earnings release schedule via DART as well as public filings on the SEC website; KEPCO also posts its IR schedule on its corporate website. IR presentations are available on its corporate website, both in Korean and English. (http://home.kepco.co.kr/kepco/EN)

Since listing its American Depositary Receipts on the New York Stock Exchange in October 1994, KEPCO has made English disclosures available on the SEC website through the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval (“EDGAR”) system. The English filings KEPCO makes with the SEC are available by accessing http://www.sec.gov, clicking the “Company Filings” button and entering “Korea Electric Power Corporation” in the “Company Name” search field.

Detailed Principle 2-② Related Party Transactions and the Internal Monitoring System

KEPCO has put into effect several internal regulations, including the Code of Conduct and Conduct Guidelines for its executives and employees, so as to prevent related party transactions and self-dealings that promote private interests among its executives and employees. Also, KEPCO has established an internal monitoring system to identify and appropriately disclose related party transactions between KEPCO and its related parties.

Under the Code of Conduct, employees who harm the proper performance of their duties become subject to disciplinary actions. The Code of Conduct also prohibits employees from engaging in transactions based on information obtained during the course of their employment. In addition, under the Regulations Concerning Public Disclosure, its executives and employees are prohibited from using any material non-public information related to its business in trading of securities or any other transaction.

Detailed Principle 2-③ Shareholder Protection Policy

To protect shareholder rights, KEPCO provides various channels to communicate with shareholders, such as its corporate website, through which shareholders may submit opinions and obtain material information on its major business and operations.

There were no material changes in corporate governance structure or major business from January 2025 to June 2026, including mergers, business transfers, divestitures, exchanges or transfers of its shares.

Detailed Principle 3-③ Internal Control Policy

To identify and manage various types of risks, KEPCO operates a company-wide risk control system and risk governance by designating the Chief Risk Officer (CRO). The risk management departments are set up to identify, diagnose, report and respond for each type of risk.

Also, KEPCO operates the following bodies independently: a Risk Deliberation Committee, which is composed of internal and external experts, external auditors and the Audit Committee under its Board of Directors. Under the Audit Committee, an independent internal audit organization has been established to effectively support an internal control system. The Risk Deliberation Committee ensures its independence and expertise by comprising a majority of external members. For financial risks, an external auditor regularly examines and evaluates financial statements and the internal control system. In addition, the ESG Committee reviews and deliberates on major reports and decisions for non-financial risks such as environmental, social and governance issues.

In terms of compliance management, KEPCO designates the establishment and amendment of internal audit regulations as a matter subject to resolution by the board and operates the Code of Conduct and the Conduct Guidelines for KEPCO executives and employees.

For internal accounting management, KEPCO established Regulations Concerning Internal Control over Financial Reporting and established the internal accounting control system pursuant to the Act on External Audit of Stock Companies, etc. In order to enhance the reliability of financial information and share the importance of Internal Control over Financial Reporting company-wide, KEPCO defines control activities in detail and conducts an annual evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal accounting control system.

The President & CEO of KEPCO is responsible for the company’s internal accounting control system, and the Chief Financial & Strategic Planning Officer oversees the system’s accounting management and operational organization. The CEO checks the effectiveness of the company’s internal accounting control system after the end of every fiscal year and reports the results to the general meeting of shareholders, the Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee evaluates the operation of the internal accounting control system and reports the results to the Board of Directors.

For disclosure management, KEPCO established the Regulations Concerning Public Disclosure and operates the disclosure organization to ensure that all information is disclosed in a fair, accurate and timely manner.

The Corporate Planning Department of the headquarters handles the disclosure work and the Audit & Inspection Office checks the disclosure for accuracy and timeliness.

Also, the Chief Financial & Strategic Planning Officer is responsible for establishing and maintaining the disclosure control system and the Accounting Team under Finance & Accounting Department gathers and reviews information to be disclosed from operating departments, periodically and frequently as needed.

KEPCO’s internal control system is divided into “self-compliance” as a precautionary measure and “internal audit” as a post-audit measure for effective internal checks. In addition, KEPCO and its subsidiaries jointly established an internal accounting system to enhance the reliability of consolidated financial information.

Detailed Principle 4-③ Director Appointment Process

In accordance with the Act on the Management of Public Institutions, KEPCO must have a Director Nomination Committee to recommend candidates for positions of the CEO, the standing director who concurrently serves as a member of the Audit Committee and non-standing directors. We manage such details under Regulations Concerning Operations of the Director Nomination Committee.

The Director Nomination Committee is convened on an ad-hoc basis depending on the need for new appointment of directors. The committee members consist of non-standing directors and others selected by the Board of Directors and must be not less than five and not more than fifteen persons, of which the Board of Directors elects less than one-half of the members. The committee members are selected by the Board of Directors from various fields, such as law, economics, academia, media and labor relations, and are required to include one person who acts as a spokesperson for KEPCO under the relevant regulations. The chairperson of the Director Nomination Committee is elected from among the committee members who are non-standing directors by the vote of the members of the Director Nomination Committee.

In order to ensure transparency and fairness in the director nomination process, KEPCO strictly complies with its internal regulations and relevant laws regarding the eligibility criteria and review procedure. Moreover, KEPCO strictly verifies the eligibility criteria of each director candidate as required by the Act on the Management of Public Institutions, the Public Service Ethics Act and the Korean Commercial Act.

KEPCO provides detailed information on the director appointment process to shareholders at least two weeks before the general meeting of shareholders, to thoroughly review director candidates. Also, KEPCO persistently makes efforts to reflect minority shareholders’ opinions.

We do not exclude concentrated voting under the Articles of Incorporation of KEPCO. If concentrated voting is claimed by a shareholder who has more than 1% of the issued shares in a general meeting of shareholders that is subject to the appointment of more than two directors, we can adopt concentrated voting in accordance with the Korean Commercial Act.

Detailed Principle 4-④ Preventing the appointment of unqualified executives

In order to prevent the appointment of executives who may damage our corporate value or shareholders’ rights, we appoint our executives in accordance with the Guidelines for Personnel Management of Public Institutions. Unregistered executives are selected from applicants who have successfully completed KEPCO’s competency evaluation and are subject to an annual reconfirmation of their qualifications each year.

Core Principle 5. Responsibilities of non-standing directors

Core Principle 8. Subcommittees

Detailed Principle 8-① Composition of the Subcommittees

Under the Board of Directors, KEPCO established four subcommittees, namely, the Audit Committee, the Director Nomination Committee, the ESG Committee and the Power System Committee.

The Audit Committee is mandatory in accordance with the Act on the Management of Public Institutions and the Commercial Act and comprises one standing director and two non-standing directors.

The Director Nomination Committee recommends candidates for the CEO, a standing director for the Audit Committee, and non-standing directors. It also negotiates management contracts with the CEO candidate in accordance with the Act on the Management of Public Institutions. The Director Nomination Committee comprises non-standing directors and members appointed by the Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee comprises a majority of non-standing directors in accordance with relevant laws and regulations.

The ESG Committee consists of three non-standing directors and one standing director. It checks the overall direction of sustainability management and supervises its performance and issues, including deliberating on major ESG management issues and providing advice on ESG management strategies and related business plans.

The Power System Committee consists of three non-standing directors and one standing director and is in charge of the preliminary review of major agendas that require board approval, the deliberation of key management issues related to the power system, such as major plans for the power system requested by the board, and the inspection and feedback on the implementation of key policy plans and achievements related to the power system.

Detailed Principle 8-② Subcommittee Regulations

KEPCO establishes subcommittees in accordance with Regulations Concerning the Board of Directors. KEPCO sets out each subcommittee’s aim, applicable scope, duties, composition and the procedures for convening meetings and adopting resolutions under regulations concerning each subcommittee.

The Audit Committee conducts audits of KEPCO’s business and accounting, inspects the business and assets of the company and reports the results to the Board of Directors. The ESG Committee reviews an agenda related to ESG issues that are subject to resolution of the Board of Directors and reports its review results to the Board of Directors. The Power System Committee conducts a preliminary review of major matters relating to the power system and reports to the Board of Directors the results of its review, including with respect to the commencement of construction projects for major power facilities of 345 kV or higher. The Director Nomination Committee decides its composition (including non-standing directors and external members appointed by the Board of Directors) and evaluation standards for director candidates with a resolution of the Board of Directors. As the Director Nomination Committee comprises external members including non-standing directors and conducts reviews and makes recommendations of director candidates independently from the Board, it is not required to report its results to the Board of Directors.

Core Principle 10. External Auditor

Detailed Principle 10-① External Auditor’s Independence and Expertise

(1) Appointment of External Auditors

As a listed company, KEPCO appoints the external auditor for three consecutive fiscal years subject to approval by the Audit Committee in compliance with the Act on External Audit of Stock Companies, etc.

The Audit Committee comprehensively considers the following qualities when approving the appointment of the external auditor: auditing period, appropriate number of skilled personnel, compensation, appropriateness of audit plans, independence and expertise. Moreover, by organizing a bidding evaluation committee, the Audit Committee evaluates each bidder with the criteria of financial condition, understanding of KEPCO, allocation and proposed management of professionals, project implementation plan, audit quality and the availability of other accounting services. The results of review, the number of meetings, attendants, and remarks are recorded in writing in the case of an in-person meeting for the appointment of an external auditor.

The Audit Committee also approved a detailed plan for the appointment of an external auditor on July 21, 2021, and in accordance with such plan, a technical evaluation of an external auditor candidate was conducted on September 30, 2021. In addition, an in-person meeting for evaluation with an external auditor candidate was held on October 8, 2021. Accordingly, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of Ernst & Young Han Young as KEPCO’s external auditor for the fiscal years from 2022 to 2024 on October 15, 2021.

Also for the fiscal years from 2025 to 2027, the Audit Committee approved a detailed plan for the appointment of an external auditor on September 5, 2024. In accordance with such plan, a technical evaluation of an external auditor candidate was conducted on December 10, 2024. In addition, an in-person meeting for evaluation with an external auditor candidate was held on December 11, 2024. Accordingly, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of KPMG Samjong as KEPCO’s external auditor for the fiscal years from 2025 to 2027 on January 23, 2025.

The Audit Committee annually evaluates the audit performance of the external auditor based on compliance with the terms determined at the time of appointment, the adequacy of audit procedures, cooperation with the internal audit teams, and any sanctions by the regulatory authorities.

(2) Non-audit services of External Auditors

In limited circumstances, the Audit Committee may selectively authorize the external auditor to engage in non-audit services, but only after finding that there are no significant independence issues as well as confirming full compliance with Section 201 of U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Code of Ethics for Korean Certified Public Accountants and Regulations Concerning Operations of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee also considers any detriment to independence caused by such engagement, the need for a separate engagement agreement and the appropriateness of the fees being paid.

The external auditor provided non-audit services to KEPCO and its subsidiaries in the fiscal year 2025 as follows:


In thousands of Korean Won
Date	Services	External Auditor	Compensations
Feb. 27, 2025	Tax filing and advice for KOMIPO Van Phong Power Service	Ernst & Young Han Young	19,004

Sep. 19, 2025	Advice for transfer pricing documentation and filing of Fujeij Wind Power Company	KPMG Samjong Accounting Corp.	10,679

* As the decision on whether the financial statements will need to be restated to reflect the Global Minimum Tax depends on the outcome of the litigation, the contract amount was calculated based on two possible scenarios, and the service fee may change depending on that outcome. The service fee stated herein reflects the higher of the two contract amounts.
