Korea Dividend Stocks: Yearend Trading Approach

Below is the amount of inheritance tax for Samsung founding family members. They were given a five-year grace period. So, one-sixth was paid on April 30th this year, the due date of payment, and the remaining five-sixths have to be paid by the end of each year over five years.In the case of Lee Jae-yong, the total inheritance tax is ₩2.90T, and he paid ₩0.48T in April of this year. And he has to make a total of 5 payments of ₩ 0.48T for five years from the end of this year.

Of course, the inheritance tax of this size is not a small amount for them either. Their wealth consists mostly of stocks. Artworks and real estate are difficult to liquidate. Most of the cash consists of dividends, but short-term cash holdings are estimated to be negligible.Below are the shares they each hold.

The problem, however, is to pay the inheritance tax without compromising the control of the group.First, they appear to have covered their first payment in April by using dividends and credit loans.And they recently announced that they plan to cover the second payment at the end of this year through the sale of their shares. As shown below, they seem to have carefully chosen which to sell. In the case of Lee Bu-jin and Lee Seo-hyun (the daughters), the amount to be paid in the first and second payments and the amount raised by this year are roughly the same. Hong Ra-hee (the spouse) raised money (₩2.40T) that was significantly more than the amount owed right away (₩0.96T). The reason for this has not yet been clearly disclosed.

And most importantly, Lee Jae-yong hasn't raised a dime this year. He appears to have made up his first payment with only the cash he had (probably financed mainly through dividends).Therefore, the market is interested in Lee Jae-yong's financing plan to pay the upcoming inheritance tax payments, which might have been one of the reasons why the stock prices of Samsung Electronics and Samsung SDS have continued to underperform the market.In the end, Jae-Yong Lee's only options for financing are dividends, bank loans, and the sale of shares. In the case of stake sale, Samsung Electronics and Samsung SDS are the only stakes that can be sold without damaging management rights.

<li>Increasing concerns about the excessive inheritance taxes and the transition of the major shareholding from the former Chairman of Celltrion Group Seo Jung-Jin to his sons</li>
<li>The timing of the merger of the three major Celltrion companies (Celltrion Inc, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/celltrion-healthcare" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:23641:1" rel="noopener">Celltrion Healthcare (091990 KS)</a>, and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/celltrion-pharm-inc" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:992:1" rel="noopener">Celltrion Pharm (068760 KS))</a>

</ul>It was reported in the<a href="http://www.sisaweek.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=147919" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> local media</a> that some of the local minority shareholders of Celltrion have formed an "emergency response committee" in order to prepare for an official activist stance to urge the company to improve its corporate governance. In recent months, share price of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/celltrion-inc" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:991:1" rel="noopener">Celltrion Inc (068270 KS)</a> has declined significantly and this has made many minority shareholders very upset. Celltrion's share price has declined 44% since its highs in December 2020. Conclusion - There are numerous uncertainties facing Celltrion Inc right now. The two biggest uncertainties include the transfer of the controlling ownership stake from the founder Seo Jung-Jin to his two sons along with the merger of the three public Celltrion companies. A few retail minority shareholders formed an emergency response committee in order to raise more voice to improve corporate governance. In the midst of these uncertainties, we believe that there could be further weakness in Celltrion Inc. Although a merger of the three public Celltrion companies could boost the share price in the short term, there remain concerns about the excessive inventory at Celltrion Healthcare/Celltrion Inc and until the financials of the three companies on a merged basis become available, there could be continued negative sentiment on the company.

Key takeaways

All the family members, except Lee Jae-yong, disclosed they had newly signed a disposal trust agreement on the same date (October 5) with the same trust institution, KB Bank.
However, all of these regulatory filings were published after the market closed last Friday. That is, the market only found it out late Friday, so whatever impact will likely be reflected in the price next trading day, which is next Tuesday.
All four trust contracts expire on April 25 next year. However, it does not necessarily mean that the deadline for the stake sale is April 25.
Only Samsung Life Insurance disclosed the deadline for sale to be December 24 of this year. But it strongly suggests that this December 24 will likely be the deadline for the other trust contrasts as well.
All four trust contracts clearly stated that the purpose was to pay inheritance tax.
