<ul>
<li>The exercise price is the arithmetic average of weighted average prices for the past two months, the past month, and the past week from the day before the board resolution.  </li>
<li>Considering the governance structure of most local companies, a split-off will still be more likely to be preferred than a spin-off. Split-offs will emerge despite the mandate of appraisal rights.</li>
<li>We should look into staggering spread openings, with the pricing done on a two-month window, as a downward price revision will likely intensify toward the announcement with mandatory appraisal rights.</li>

<li>SK On announced that it recently received 1 trillion won in investment, valuing the company at 22 trillion won, 29% higher than SK Innovation's market cap of 17 trillion won. </li>

<li>The Korea FSC finalized the additional investor protection measures: 1. stricter disclosure rules, 2. tighter listing requirements, and 3. mandatory appraisal rights.</li>
<li>The retroactive application period is five years. Companies that have been split off five years ago from the effective date are also subject to these new rules.</li>

<ul>
<li>I recommend focusing on the ceiling regression play. In this regard, SK Innovation has the most notable regression spread, and we should use Samsung SDI as a hedge against it.</li>
<li>As for constituent change, SungEel HiTech is firmly positioned with a market cap of ₩1.34T and a float rate of 50%. And it belongs to the Waste batteries keyword.</li>
<li>But, it is unclear whether SungEel will be in the top 25 in scoring. We should patiently wait until confirmation as it's still a worthy candidate requiring our attention.</li>

<ul>
<li>SK Group has been the the most active M&amp;A player among the major chaebols in Korea in the past decade. SK Group is once again making some big M&amp;A moves.</li>
