[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Hyun-seok] Susan Heavy Industries announced on the 16th that it disposed of 2.5 million shares held by its affiliates through a block deal (off-hours large volume trading). This amount corresponds to 4.63% of the total issued shares. The selling price per share was 4,457 won, approximately an 8.5% discount from the previous day's closing price.
This block deal was aimed at securing additional funds for factory efficiency investments by Susan CSM, a subsidiary of Susan Heavy Industries. On the 2nd, Chairman Jeong Seok-hyun and others stated that the proceeds from the block deal of Susan INT shares would be used for investments in subsidiaries of Susan Heavy Industries.
Chairman Jeong Seok-hyun is the largest shareholder of Susan Industry, which announced the sale through the block deal on the same day.
