Annual Large Business Group Status Disclosure (Identical Person)
Original: 대규모기업집단현황공시[연1회(동일인용)]
Summary
This is the annual mandatory disclosure of the Samsung business group's structure, filed under the designated controlling person Lee Jae-yong. The filing reports six overseas affiliates that directly or indirectly hold stakes in domestic affiliates, including Harman International Industries, Samsung Electronics America, and the D&M/DEI/Viper Holdings chain — all 100%-owned within the group. No overseas affiliates are held directly by the controlling family (20%+ thresholds), and intra-group ownership remains fully consolidated. This is a routine regulatory filing with no changes to shareholding structure or business operations.
