Notes
KCTech is one of the few Korean players producing CMP slurry domestically, benefiting from localization efforts by Samsung and SK Hynix after the 2019 Japan export controls. The wet equipment segment competes with Japanese incumbents like SCREEN and Tokyo Electron, while the slurry business competes with global leaders Cabot and Fujimi. Spun off its display equipment business as KC in 2017 to focus on semiconductor.
Vice President Jung Eui Hoon, a non-registered executive, disposed of his entire holding of 2,419 common shares of the company on June 5, 2026 via on-market sale at KRW 61,315 per share. This reduced his ownership from 0.01% to 0% of the 19,798,661 outstanding shares. The transaction value is approximately KRW 148 million, a small absolute amount but notable as the executive now holds zero shares. Insider sell-downs to zero can be read as a mildly negative signal, though the stake size is immaterial relative to the float.
The company filed its FY2025 Corporate Governance Report covering the period from January 1 to December 31, 2025, reporting compliance with 8 of 15 core governance indicators (53.3% compliance rate). Key compliant areas include 4-week advance notice for shareholder meetings, electronic voting, dividend predictability, and quarterly internal audit meetings with external auditors without management. Notable non-compliance areas include the absence of a dividend policy, CEO succession plan, internal control/risk management policy, and an independent internal audit department, as well as the lack of separation between the board chair and CEO roles. The board consists of 6 inside directors and 3 outside directors, with the largest shareholder group holding 54.54% and minority shareholders holding 33.34%. Consolidated FY2025 revenue was KRW 382.9 billion (down slightly from KRW 385.4 billion), with operating profit of KRW 60.0 billion and net income of KRW 53.4 billion, both showing year-over-year growth.
KCTech filed its Q1 2026 quarterly report (10th fiscal year) covering January 1 to March 31, 2026, with no material changes to its corporate structure, controlling shareholder, or principal business. The company continues to operate one consolidated subsidiary (KCTech America Inc., established April 2025) supporting U.S. customer R&D for slurry and chemical products. Credit ratings remain stable at AA- from NICE D&B and A+ from Korea Ratings Data and EcredibleI, consistent with prior-year levels. The March 2026 AGM reappointed CEO Choi Dong-gyu, two inside directors, and three outside directors, with no new appointments. Capital stock and total shares outstanding (20,690,323 common shares) are unchanged from year-end 2025.
