Independent Auditor’s Report

Based on a report originally issued in Korean

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Woori Financial Group Inc.

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Woori Financial Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (“the Group”), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2023, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes, comprising of material accounting policy information and other explanatory information.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2023, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards (“K-IFRS”).

We also have audited, in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing (KSAs), the Group’s Internal Control over Financial Reporting (“ICFR”) for consolidation purposes as of December 31, 2023, based on the criteria established in Conceptual Framework for Designing and Operating Internal Control over Financial Reporting issued by the Operating Committee of Internal Control over Financial Reporting in the Republic of Korea, and our report dated March 6, 2024 expressed an unmodified opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control over financial reporting for consolidation purposes.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing (KSAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in Republic of Korea, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the ethical requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Key Audit Matter

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Assessment of the allowance for credit losses for loans

As discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Group recognized an allowance for credit losses using the Expected Credit loss (ECL) impairment model for loans at amortized cost amounting to KRW 2,975,060 million as of December 31, 2023. ECL allowances are measured at

- 1 -

amounts equal to either (i) 12-month ECL; or (ii) lifetime ECL for those loans that have experienced a Significant Increase in Credit Risk (SICR) since initial recognition or are impaired. The Group measures ECL allowances on an individual basis for individually significant corporate loans which have had SICR or have become impaired. The allowance for credit losses for all other loans is measured on a collective basis. For these loans, the Group measures ECL by estimating the Probability of Default (PD), the Loss Given Default (LGD) as well as the impact of future economic forecast information. For corporate loans, the Group’s credit rating of the borrower and future economic forecast information are used in the determination of the PD. The Group uses quantitative and qualitative factors to determine the credit rating of the borrower and the evaluation of the qualitative factors involves a high level of judgment by the Group. For the incorporation of future economic forecast information in the PD, the Group uses various information to select a model and this also involves a high level of judgment by the Group.

We identified the following risk as a key audit matter, considering the likelihood of errors, the level of involvement of management judgement, and risk of material misstatement.

- Risk that the allowance for credit losses which is measured on a collective basis is misstated due to error or fraud in the evaluation of the qualitative factors which is used for determining the internal credit ratings of corporate loans, and the manner in which future economic forecast information is incorporated.

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this key audit matter:

- We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to: (i) the assessment of qualitative factors in the process of determining the Group’s credit rating of corporate loans; and (ii) the assessment of the appropriateness of the model selection process to incorporate future economic forecast information

- We checked whether, for a sample of corporate loans with ECL measured on a collective basis, the Group’s policy was applied in the credit rating process

- We involved credit risk professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in: (i) using statistical methods to analyze the correlation between the future economic forecast information and PD; (ii) assessing the reasonableness of the rationale for the selection of the final model by checking the appropriateness and the reasonableness of the model selection criteria by statistically; and (iii) checking the accuracy of the PD which incorporated future economic forecast information by a recalculation.

Other Matter

The procedures and practices utilized in the Republic of Korea to audit such consolidated financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries.

The consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2022 were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on those financial statements on March 7, 2023.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with K-IFRS, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

- 2 -

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with KSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with KSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

- 3 -

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Jae-Beom Choi.

- Structured entity for the investments in securities

The structured entity is established for the purpose of investments in securities.

The characteristics of interests and the nature of risks related to unconsolidated structured entities over which the Group does not have control in accordance with K-IFRS 1110 are as follows:

The interests in unconsolidated structured entities that the Group hold are classified into asset securitization, structured finance, investment fund and real-estate trust, based on the nature and the purpose of each structured entity.

With regard to uncertainties involving structured financing, there are entities that provide financial support such as additional fund, guarantees and prioritized credit grants prior to the Group’s intervention, but the Group is exposed to possible losses due to loss of principal from reduction in investment value or irrecoverable loans arising from failure to collect scheduled cash flows and cessation of projects.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(1) Basis of presentation

The Group maintains its accounting records in Korean won and prepares statutory financial statements in the Korean language (Hangul) in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the Republic of Korea (K-IFRS). The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been condensed, restructured and translated into English from the Korean language financial statements.

Certain information attached to the Korean language financial statements, but not required for a fair presentation of the Group’s financial position, financial performance or cash flows, is not presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with K-IFRS. These are the standards, subsequent amendments and related interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) that have been adopted by the Republic of Korea.

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

The consolidated financial statements, as described in following paragraphs of accounting policy, are prepared at the end of each reporting period in historical cost basis, except for certain non-current assets and financial assets that are either revalued or measured in fair value. Historical cost is generally measured at the fair value of consideration given to acquire assets.

Meanwhile, the consolidated financial statements of the Group were initially approved by the Board of Directors on February 6, 2024, revised and approved on February 9, 2024 and the final approval will be made in the annual general shareholders’ meeting on March 22, 2024.

1) The standards and interpretations that are newly adopted by the Group during the current period, and the changes in accounting policies thereof are as follows:

i) Amendments to K-IFRS 1001 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ – Disclosure of Accounting Policies

The amendments to Korean IFRS 1001 define and require entities to disclose their material accounting policy information (being information that, when considered together with other information included in an entity’s financial statements, can reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements) statements). These amended do not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

ii) Amendments to K-IFRS 1008 ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’ - Definition of Accounting Estimates

The amendments have defined accounting estimates and clarified how to distinguish them from changes in accounting policies. These amended do not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

iii) Amendments to K-IFRS 1001 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ - Disclosure of valuation gains or losses on financial liabilities with condition to adjust exercise price

The amendments require disclosure of valuation gains or losses (limited to those recognized in the profit or loss) of the conversion options or warrants (or financial liabilities including them), if all or part of the financial instrument with exercise price that is adjusted depending on the issuer’s share price change is classified as financial liability as defined in paragraph 11 (2) of K-IFRS 1032. These amended do not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

iv) Amendments to K-IFRS 1012 ‘Income Taxes’ - deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction

Additional phrase ‘the temporary difference to be added and the temporary difference to be deducted do not occur in the same amount’ has been added to initial recognition exception for a transaction in which an asset or liability is initially recognized. These amended do not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

v) New Standard: K-IFRS 1117 ‘Insurance Contract’

K-IFRS 1117 Insurance Contracts replaces K-IFRS 1104 Insurance Contracts. This Standard estimates future cash flows of an insurance contract and measures insurance liabilities using discount rates applied with assumptions and risks at the measurement date. The entity recognizes insurance revenue on an accrual basis including services (insurance coverage) provided to the policyholder by each annual periods. In addition, investment components (Refunds due to termination/maturity) repaid to a policyholder even if an insured event does not occur, are excluded from insurance revenue, and insurance financial income or expense and the investment income or expense are presented separately to enable users of the information to understand the sources of income or expenses. This standard does not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

vi) K-IFRS 1012 ‘Income Taxes’ - International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules

The amendments provide a temporary relief from the accounting for deferred taxes arising from legislation enacted to implement the Pillar Two model rules, which aim to reform international corporate taxation for multinational enterprises, and require disclosure of related current tax effects, etc. The amendments do not have a significant impact on the financial statements.

The Group applies the exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes. Since the Pillar Two legislation is scheduled to be effective from January 1, 2024, the Group has no current tax expense related to Pillar Two. The Group is in review for the impact of these amendments on the financial statements and does not expect that the impact will be significant.

2) The details of K-IFRSs that have been issued and published as of December 31,2023 but have not yet reached the effective date, and which the Group have not been early adopted by the Group are as follows:

i) Amendments to K-IFRS 1001 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ - Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current, Non-current Liabilities with Covenants

The amendments clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period and specify that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability, explain that rights are in existence if covenants are complied with at the end of the reporting period and introduce a definition of ‘settlement’ to make it clear that settlement refers to the transfer to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets or services.

The amendments specify that only covenants that an entity is required to comply with on or before the end of the reporting period affect the entity’s right to defer settlement of liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.

Such covenants affect whether the right exists at the end of the reporting period, even if compliance with the covenant is assessed only after the reporting date.

The amendments also specify that the right to defer settlement is not affected if an entity only has to comply with a covenant after the reporting period. However, if the entity’s right to defer settlement of liability is subject to the entity complying with covenants within 12 months after the

- 31 -

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

reporting period, an entity discloses information that enables users of financial statements to understand the risk of the liabilities becoming repayable within 12 months after the reporting period. This would include information about the covenants (including the nature of the covenants and when the entity is required to comply with them), the carrying amount of related liabilities and the facts and circumstances, if any, that indicate that the entity may have difficulties complying with the covenants.

The amendments should be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, and earlier application is permitted. The Group does not expect that these amendments have a significant impact on the financial statements.

ii) Amendments to K-IFRS 1007 ‘Statement of Cash Flows’, K-IFRS 1107 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures’ – Supplier finance arrangements

When applying supplier finance arrangements, an entity shall disclose information about its supplier finance arrangements that enables users of financial statements to assess the effects of those arrangements on the entity’s liabilities and cash flows and on the entity’s exposure to liquidity risk. The amendments should be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, and earlier application is permitted. The Group does not expect that these amended will have a significant impact on the financial statements.

iii) Amendments to K-IFRS 1116 ‘Leases’ - Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback

When subsequently measuring lease liabilities arising from a sale and leaseback, a seller-lessee shall determine lease payments or revised lease payments in a way that the seller-lessee would not recognize any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use retained by the seller-lessee. The amendments should be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, and earlier application is permitted. The Group does not expect that these amendments have a significant impact on the financial statements.

iv) Amendments to K-IFRS 1001 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ – Disclosure of Cryptographic Assets

The amendments require for an additional disclosure if an entity holds cryptographic assets, or holds cryptographic assets on behalf of the customer, or issues cryptographic assets. The amendments should be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, and earlier application is permitted. The Group does not expect that these amendments will have a significant impact on the financial statements.

The above enacted or amended standards will not have a significant impact on the Group.

(2) Basis of consolidated financial statement presentation

The consolidated financial statements consist of the financial statements of the parent company and the entities (including structured entities) controlled by the parent company (or its subsidiaries, which is the “Group”). Control is achieved where the Group 1) has the power over the investee, 2) is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and 3) able to use its power to affect its returns. The Group reassesses whether it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

When the Group has less than most of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether the Group’s voting rights in an investee are enough to give it power, including:

- The relative size of the Group’s holding of voting rights and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders;

- Potential voting rights held by the Group, other vote holders or other parties;

- Rights arising from other contractual arrangements;

- 32 -

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

- Any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Group has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders’ meetings.

Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until the date when the Group ceases to control the subsidiary. The carrying amount of the non-controlling interest after the acquisition is the amount initially recognized plus the amount of proportionate interest of the non-controlling interest in the changes in equity since the acquisition. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owner of the Group and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a negative (-) balance.

When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies.

All intra-group transactions and, related assets and liabilities, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amount of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owner of the parent company.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss on disposal is calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and any non-controlling interests. When assets of the subsidiary are carried at revalued amounts or fair values and the related cumulative gain or loss has been recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity, the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the relevant assets (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly to retained earnings). The fair value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is recognized as the fair value on initial recognition for subsequent accounting under K-IFRS 1109 Financial Instruments or, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or a joint venture.

(3) Business combinations

Acquisitions of subsidiaries and businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree, liabilities assumed by the Group for the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group. Acquisition-related costs are generally recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

At the acquisition date, the acquiree’s identifiable acquires assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are recognized at their fair value, except for the followings:

- Deferred tax assets or liabilities and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognized and measured in accordance with K-IFRS 1012 Income Taxes and K-IFRS 1019 Employee Benefits, respectively;

- Liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree or share-based payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with K-IFRS 1102 Share-based Payment at the acquisition date; and

- Non-current assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale are measured in accordance with K-IFRS 1105 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations

Any excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the Group’s previously held equity interest (if any) in the acquiree over the net of identifiable assets and liabilities assumed of the acquiree at the acquisition date is recognized as goodwill.

If, after reassessment, the Group’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognized immediately in net income as a bargain purchase gain.

The subsidiary’s non-controlling interests are identified separately from the Group’s equity. If the element of the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is the current interest at the acquisition date and the holder is entitled to a proportional share of the entity’s net assets, the non-controlling interest can be measured in 1) fair value or 2) proportionate share of the current equity instrument of the amount recognized for the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. The selection of these metrics is made for each acquisition transaction. All other non-controlling interests are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. The carrying amount of the non-controlling interest after acquisition reflects the proportional interest of the non-controlling interest in changes in equity after acquisition in the initial recognition amount. Even if the non-controlling interest is a negative (-) balance, total comprehensive income is attributed to the non-controlling interest.

When the consideration transferred by the Group in a business combination includes assets or liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition-date fair value and included as part of the consideration transferred in a business combination. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are adjusted retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the ‘measurement period’ (which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date.

The subsequent accounting for changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments depends on how the contingent consideration is classified. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured at subsequent reporting dates and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration other than the above is remeasured at subsequent reporting dates as appropriate, with the corresponding gain or loss being recognized in profit or loss.

When a business combination is achieved in stages, the Group’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured at fair value at the acquisition date (i.e., the date when the Group obtains control) and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognized in net income(or other comprehensive income, if applicable). Amounts arising from changes in value of interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognized in other comprehensive income are recognized, identical to the treatment assuming interests are sold directly.

If the initial accounting for a business combination is not completed by the end of the reporting period in which the business combination occurred, the Group reports in consolidated financial statements the provisional amount of items that have not been accounted for. If there is new information about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date during the measurement period (see above), the Group retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date or recognizes additional assets and liabilities to reflect the information that would have affected the measurement of the amount recognized at the acquisition date if it had already known at the acquisition date.

(4) Investments in joint ventures and associates

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence, and that is not a subsidiary or a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in making decision on the financial and operating policy of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to net assets relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

The net income of current period and the assets and liabilities of the joint ventures and associates are incorporated in these consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting, except when the investment is classified as held for sale, in which case it is accounted for in accordance with K-IFRS 1105 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. Under the equity method, an investment in the joint ventures and associates is initially recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the net assets of the joint ventures and associates and any impairment. When the Group’s share of losses of the joint ventures and associates exceeds the Group’s interest in the associate, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses are recognized only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint ventures and associates.

Investment in joint ventures and associates are accounted for and applied with the equity method from the time the investee becomes an associate or a joint venture.

Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the joint ventures and associates recognized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of acquisition exists after the review, it is recognized immediately in net income.

The requirements of K-IFRS 1028 – Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures to determine whether there has been a loss event are applied to identify whether it is necessary to recognize any impairment loss with respect to the Group’s investment in the joint ventures and associates. When necessary, the entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment in accordance with K-IFRS 1036 – Impairment of Assets as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell) with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized is not allocated to any asset (including goodwill), which forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized in accordance with K-IFRS 1036 to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.

The Group ceases to use the equity method from the time it fails meet the definition of an associate or a joint venture. Upon a loss of significant influence over the joint ventures and associates, the Group discontinues the use of the equity method and measures at fair value of any investment that the Group retains in the former joint ventures and associates from the date when the Group loses significant influence. The fair value of the investment is regarded as its fair value on initial recognition as a financial asset in accordance with K-IFRS 1109 Financial Instruments; Recognition and Measurement. The Group recognized differences between the carrying amount and fair value in net income and it is included in determination of the gain or loss on disposal of joint ventures and associates. The Group accounts for all amounts recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that joint ventures and associates on the same basis as would be required if the joint ventures and associates had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. Therefore, if a gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income by an associate or a joint venture would be reclassified to net income on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities, the Group reclassifies the gain or loss from equity to net income as a reclassification adjustment.

When the Group’s ownership of interest in an associate or a joint venture decreases but the Group continues to maintain significant influence over an associate or a joint venture, the Group reclassifies to profit or loss the proportion of the gain or loss that had previously been recognized in other comprehensive income relating to that decrease in ownership interest if the gain or loss would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities. Meanwhile, if interest on associate or joint venture meets the definition of non-current asset held for sale, it is accounted for in accordance with K-IFRS 1105.

- 35 -

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

The Group continues to use the equity method when an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate. There is no remeasurement to fair value upon such changes in ownership interests.

When the Group transacts with an associate or a joint venture of the Group, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate or joint venture are recognized in the Group’s consolidated financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate or joint venture that are not related to the Group.

The Group applies K-IFRS 1109 Financial Instruments, including the impairment requirements, to its long-term investment interests in associates and joint ventures that form part of its net investment without applying the equity method. In addition, when applying K-IFRS 1109 to long-term investments, the Group does not consider adjustments to the carrying amount required by K-IFRS 1028. Examples of such adjustments include an impairment assessment or an adjustment to the carrying amount of the long-term investment interest resulting from the allocation of losses to the investee in accordance with K-IFRS 1028.

(5) Investment in joint operation

A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

When the Group operates as a joint operator, it recognizes in relation to its interest in a joint operation:

- its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly;

- its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly;

- its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation;

- its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation;

- its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.

The Group accounts for the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses that correspond to its interest in a joint operation in accordance with the K-IFRSs applicable to the specific assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

When the Group enters into a transaction with a joint operation in which it is a joint operator, such as a sale or contribution of assets, it is conducting the transaction with the other parties to the joint operation and, as such, the Group recognizes gains and losses resulting from such a transaction only to the extent of the other parties’ interests in the joint operation.

When the Group enters a transaction with a joint operation in which it is a joint operator, such as a purchase of assets, it does not recognize proportional share of profit or loss until the asset is sold to a third party.

(6) Revenue recognition

K-IFRS 1115 requires the recognition of revenues based on transaction price allocated to the performance obligation when or as the Group performs that obligation to the customer. Revenues other than those from contracts with customers, such as interest revenue and loan origination fee (cost), are recognized through effective interest rate method.

1) Revenues from contracts with customers

The Group recognizes revenue when the Group satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. When a performance obligation is satisfied, the Group shall recognize as a revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

2) Revenues from sources other than contracts with customers

① Interest income

Interest income on financial assets measured at FVTOCI and financial assets at amortized costs is measured using the effective interest method.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and of allocating the interest income over the expected life of the asset. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows to the instrument’s initial unamortized cost over the expected period, or shorter if appropriate. Future cash flows include commissions and cost of reward points(limited to the primary component of effective interest rate) and other premiums or discounts that are paid or received between the contractual parties when calculating the effective interest rate, but does not include expected credit losses. All contractual terms of a financial instrument are considered when estimating future cash flows.

For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, interest revenue is recognized by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset from initial recognition. Even if the financial asset is no longer impaired in the subsequent periods due to credit improvement, the basis of interest revenue calculation is not changed from amortized cost to unamortized cost of the financial assets.

② Loan origination fees and costs

The commission fees earned on loans, which is part of the effective interest of loans, is accounted for as deferred origination fees. Incremental costs related to the origination of loans are accounted for as deferred origination fees and is being added or deducted to/from interest income on loans using effective interest rate method.

3) Dividend income

Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive dividends as a shareholder is confirmed. Dividend income is recognized as an appropriate item of profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income according to the classification of financial instruments.

(7) Accounting for foreign currencies

The Group’s consolidated financial statements are presented in Korean Won, which is the functional currency of the Group. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency at its prevailing exchange rates at the date. The effective portion of the changes in fair value of a derivative that qualifies as a cash flow hedge and the foreign exchange differences on monetary items that form part of net investment in foreign operations are recognized in equity.

Assets and liabilities of the foreign operations subject to consolidation are translated into Korean Won at foreign exchange rates at the end of the reporting period. Except for situations in which it is required to use exchange rates at the date of transaction due to significant changes in exchange rates during the period, items that belong to profit or loss shall be measured by average exchange rate, with foreign exchange differences recognized as other comprehensive income and added to equity (allocated to non-controlling interests, if appropriate). When foreign operations are disposed, the controlling interest’s share of accumulated foreign exchange differences related to such foreign operations will be reclassified to profit or loss, while non-controlling interest’s corresponding share will not be reclassified.

Adjustments to fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities, and goodwill arising from the acquisition of foreign operations will be treated as assets and liabilities of the corresponding foreign operation, and translated using foreign exchange rates at the end of the period. The foreign exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

(8) Cash and cash equivalents

The Group is classifying cash on hand, demand deposits, interest-earning deposits with original maturities of up to three months on acquisition date, and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value as cash and cash equivalents.

(9) Financial assets and financial liabilities

1) Financial assets

A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is recognized or derecognized on the trade or settlement date. A regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of a financial asset under a contract whose term requires delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulation or convention in the marketplace concerned.

On initial recognition, financial assets are classified into financial assets at FVTPL, financial assets at FVTOCI, and financial assets at amortized cost according to its business model and contractual cash flows.

a) Business model

The Group evaluates the way business is being managed, and the purpose of the business model for managing a financial asset best reflects the way information is provided to the management at its portfolio level. Such information considers the following:

- The accounting policies and purpose specified for the portfolio, the actual operation of such policies. This includes strategy of the management focusing on the receipt of contractual interest revenue, maintaining a certain level of interest income, matching the duration of financial assets and the duration of corresponding liabilities to obtain the asset, and outflow or realization of expected cash flows from disposal of assets

- The way the performance of a financial asset held under the business model is evaluated, and the way such evaluation is being reported to the management

- The risk affecting the performance of the business model (and financial assets held under the business model), and the way such risk is being managed

- The compensation plan for the management (e.g. whether the management is being compensated based on the fair value of assets or based on contractual cash flows received)

- Frequency, amount, timing and reason for sale of financial assets in the past, and forecast of future sale activities.

b) Contractual cash flows

The principal is defined to be the fair value of a financial assets at initial recognition. Interest is not only composed of consideration for the time value of money, consideration for the credit risk related to remaining principal at a certain period of time, and consideration for other cost (e.g. liquidity risk and cost of operation) and fundamental risk associated with lending, but also profit.

When evaluating whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interests, the Group considers the contractual terms of the financial instrument. When a financial asset contains contractual conditions that modify the timing and amount of contractual cash flows, it is required to determine whether contractual cash flows that arise during the remaining life of the financial instrument due to such contractual condition are solely payments of principal and interest. The Group considers the following elements when evaluating the above:

- Conditions that lead to modification of timing or amount of cash flows

- Contractual terms that adjust contractual nominal interest, including floating rate features

- Early payment features and maturity extension features

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

- Contractual terms that limit the Group’s claim on cash flows arising from certain assets

① Financial assets at FVTPL

The Group is classifying those financial assets that are not classified as either financial assets at amortized cost or financial assets at FVTOCI, and those designated to be measured at FVTPL, as financial assets at FVTPL. Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value, and related profit or loss is recognized in net income. Transaction costs related to acquisition at initial recognition is recognized in net income immediately upon its occurrence.

It is possible to designate a financial asset as financial asset at FVTPL if at initial recognition: (a) it is possible to remove or significantly reduce recognition or measurement mismatch that may otherwise have occurred if not for its designation as financial asset at FVTPL; (b) the financial asset forms part of the Group’s financial instrument group (a group composed of a combination of financial asset or liability), is measured at fair value and is being evaluated for its performance, and such information is provided internally; and (c) the financial asset is part of a contract that contains one or more of embedded derivatives, and is a hybrid contract in which designation as financial asset at FVTPL is allowed under K-IFRS 1109 Financial Instruments. However, the designation is irrevocable.

② Financial assets at FVTOCI

When financial assets are held under a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and when contractual cash flows from such financial assets are solely payments of principal and interest, the financial assets are classified as financial assets at FVTOCI. Also, for investments in equity instruments that are not held for short-term trade, an irrevocable election is available at initial recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value as other comprehensive income.

At initial recognition, financial assets at FVTOCI are measured at its fair value plus any direct transaction cost, and is subsequently measured in fair value. However, for equity instruments that do not have a quotation in an active market and in which fair value cannot be measured reliably, they are measured at cost. The income tax effects related to the changes in fair value except for profit or loss items such as impairment losses (reversals), interest revenue calculated by using effective interest method, and foreign exchange gain or loss about debt instrument are recognized as other comprehensive income until the asset’s disposal. Upon derecognition, the accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to net income for FVTOCI (debt instrument), and reclassified within the equity for FVTOCI (equity instruments).

③ Financial assets at amortized cost

When financial assets are held under a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and when contractual cash flows from such financial assets are solely payments of principal and interest, the financial assets are classified as financial assets at amortized cost. At initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost are recognized at fair value plus any direct transaction cost. Financial assets at amortized cost are presented at amortized cost using effective interest method, less any loss allowance.

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

2) Financial liabilities

At initial recognition, financial liabilities are classified into either financial liabilities at FVTPL or financial liabilities at amortized cost.

Financial liabilities are usually classified as financial liabilities at FVTPL when they are acquired with a purpose to repurchase them within a short period of time, when they are part of a certain financial instrument portfolio that is actually and recently being managed with a purpose of short-term profit and joint management by the Group at initial recognition, and when they are derivatives that do not qualify as hedging instruments. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value plus direct transaction cost at initial recognition, and are subsequently measured at fair value. Profit or loss arising from financial liabilities at FVTPL is recognized in net income when occurred.

It is possible to designate a financial liability as financial liability at FVTPL if at initial recognition: (a) it is possible to remove or significantly reduce recognition or measurement mismatch that may otherwise have occurred if not for its designation as financial liability at FVTPL; (b) the financial asset forms part of the Group’s financial instrument group (a group composed of a combination of financial asset or liability) according to the Group’s documented risk management or investment strategy, is measured at fair value and is being evaluated for its performance, and such information is provided internally; and (c) the financial liability is part of a contract that contains one or more of embedded derivatives, and is a hybrid contract in which designation as financial liability at FVTPL is allowed under K-IFRS 1109 Financial Instruments.

Financial liabilities designated as at FVTPL are initially recognized at fair value, with any direct transaction cost recognized in profit or loss, and are subsequently measured at fair value. Any profit or loss from financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities not classified as financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at amortized cost.

3) Reclassification

Financial assets are not reclassified after initial recognition unless the Group modifies the business model used to manage financial assets. When the Group modifies the business model used to manage financial assets, all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period after the modification.

4) Derecognition

Financial assets are derecognized when contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets are expired, or when substantially all of risk and reward for holding financial assets is transferred to another entity as a result of a sale of financial assets. If the Group does not have and does not transfer substantially all of the risk and reward of holding financial assets with control of the transferred financial assets retained, the Group recognizes financial assets to the extent of its continuing involvement. If the Group holds substantially all the risk and reward of holding a financial asset, it continues to recognize that asset and proceeds are accounted for as collateralized borrowings.

When a financial asset is fully derecognized, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of proceeds and accumulated other comprehensive income is recognized as profit or loss in case of FVTOCI (debt instruments), and as retained earnings for FVTOCI (equity instruments).

In case when a financial asset is not fully derecognized, the Group allocates the carrying amount into amounts retained in the books and removed from the books, based on the relative fair value of each portion at the date of sale, and based on the degree of continuing involvement. For the derecognized portion of the financial assets, the difference between its carrying amount and the sum of proceeds and the portion of accumulated other comprehensive income attributable to that portion will be recognized in profit or loss in case of debt instruments and recognized in retained earnings in case of equity instruments. The accumulated other comprehensive income is distributed to the portion of carrying amount retained in the books, and to the portion of carrying amount removed from the books.

- 42 -

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

The Group derecognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss.

When the Group exchanges with the existing lender one debt instrument into another one with the substantially different terms, such exchange is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. Similarly, the Group accounts for substantial modification of terms of an existing liability or part of it as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new liability. It is assumed that the terms are substantially different if the discounted present value of the cash flows under the new terms, including any fees paid net of any fees received and discounted using the original effective rate is at least 10 percent different from the discounted present value of the remaining cash flows of the original financial liability.

5) Fair value of financial instruments

Financial assets at FVTPL and financial assets at FVTOCI are measured and presented in consolidated financial statements at their fair values, and all derivatives are also subject to fair value measurement.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to exchange an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a recent transaction between independent parties that are reasonable and willing. Fair value is the transaction price of identical financial assets or financial liabilities generated in an active market. An active market is a market where trade volume is sufficient and objective price information is available due to the fact that bid and ask price differences are small.

When trade volume of a financial instrument is low, when transaction prices within the market show large differences among them, or when it cannot be concluded that a financial instrument is being traded within an active market due to disclosures being extremely shallow, fair value is measured using valuation techniques based on alternative market information or using internal valuation techniques based on general and observable information obtained from objective sources. Market information includes maturity and characteristics, duration, similar yield curve, and variability measurement of financial instruments of similar nature. Fair value amount contains unique assumptions on each entity (the Group concluded that it is using assumptions applied in valuing financial instruments in the market, or risk-adjusted assumptions in case marketability does not exist).

The market approach and income approach, which are valuation techniques used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments, both require significant judgment. Market approach measures fair value using either a recent transaction price that includes the financial instrument, or observable information on comparable firm or assets. Income approach measures fair value through discounting future cash flows with a discount rate reflecting market expectations, and revenue, operating income, depreciation, capital expenditures, income tax, working capital and estimated residual value of financial investments are being considered when deriving future cash flows. Valuation techniques such as the above include estimates based on the financial instruments’ complexity and usefulness of observable information in the market.

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

The valuation techniques used in the evaluation of financial instruments are explained below.

a) Financial assets at FVTPL and Financial assets at FVTOCI

The fair value of equity securities included in financial assets at FVTPL and financial assets at FVTOCI category is recognized in the statement of financial position at its available market price. Debt securities traded in the over-the-counter market are generally recognized at an amount computed by an independent appraiser. When the Group uses the fair value determined by independent appraisers, the Group usually obtains three values from three different appraisers for each financial instrument, and selects the minimum amount without making additional adjustments. For equity securities without marketability, the Group uses the amount determined by the independent appraiser. The Group verifies the prices obtained from appraisers in various ways, including the evaluation of independent appraisers’ competency, indirect verification through comparison between appraisers’ price and other available market information, and reperformed by employees who have knowledge of valuation models and assumptions that appraisers used.

b) Derivatives

The Group’s transactions involving derivatives such as futures and exchange traded options are measured at market value. For exchange traded derivatives classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, the fair value is estimated using internal valuation techniques. If there are no publicly available market prices because they are traded over-the-counter, fair value is measured through internal valuation techniques. When using internal valuation techniques to derive fair value, the types of derivatives, base interest rate or characteristics of prices, or stock market indices are considered. When variables used in the internal valuation techniques are not observable information in the market, such variables may contain significant estimates.

c) Adjustment of valuation amount

The Group is exposed to credit risk when a counterparty to a derivative contract does not perform its contractual obligation, and the exposure amount is equal to the amount of derivative asset recognized in the statement of financial position. When the Group earns income through valuation of derivatives, such income is recognized as derivative asset in the statement of financial position. Some of the derivatives are traded in the market, but most of the derivatives are measured at estimated fair value derived from internal valuation models that use observable information in the market. As such, in order to estimate the fair value there should be an adjustment made to incorporate counterparty’s credit risk, and credit risk adjustment is being considered when valuing derivative assets such as over-the counter derivatives. The amount of financial liabilities is also adjusted by the Group’s own credit risk when valuing them.

The amount of adjustment is derived from counterparty’s probability of default and loss given default. This adjustment considers contractual matters that are designed to reduce the Group’s exposure to each counterparty’s credit risk. When derivatives are under master netting arrangement, the exposure used in the computation of credit risk adjustment is a net amount after adding/deducting cash collateral received (or paid) from loss(or gain) position derivatives with the same counterparty.

6) Expected credit losses on financial assets

The Group recognizes loss allowance on expected credit losses for the following assets:

- Financial assets at amortized cost

- Debt instruments measured at FVTOCI

- Contract assets as defined by K-IFRS 1115

Expected credit losses are weighted-average value of a range of possible results, considering the time value of money, and are measured by incorporating information on current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions that are available without undue cost or effort.

The methods to measure expected credit losses are classified into following three categories in accordance with K-IFRS:

- General approach: Financial assets that does not belong to below two models and unused loan commitments

- Simplified approach: When financial assets are either trade receivables, contract assets or lease receivables

- Credit impairment model: Purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets

The measurement of loss allowance under general approach is differentiated depending on whether the credit risk has increased significantly after initial recognition. That is, loss allowance is measured based on 12-month expected credit loss when the credit risk has not increased significantly after initial recognition, while loss allowance is measured at lifetime expected credit loss when credit risk has increased significantly. Lifetime is the expected remaining life of the financial instrument up to the maturity date of the contract.

The measurement of loss allowance under simplified approach is always based on lifetime expected credit loss, and loss allowance under credit impairment model is measured as the cumulative change in lifetime expected credit loss since initial recognition.

a) Measurement of expected credit losses on financial asset at amortized cost

The expected credit losses on financial assets at amortized cost is measured by the difference between the contractual cash flows during the period and the present value of expected cash flows. Expected cash inflows are computed for individually significant financial assets in order to calculate expected credit losses.

When financial assets that are not individually significant, they are included in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and expected credit losses of the group are calculated collectively.

Expected credit losses are deducted through loss allowance account, and when the financial asset is determined to be uncollectible, the loss allowance is written off from the books along with the related financial asset.

b) Measurement of expected credit losses on financial asset at FVTOCI(Debt instruments)

The measurement method of expected credit loss is identical to financial asset at amortized cost, but changes in the loss allowance is recognized in other comprehensive income. When financial assets at FVTOCI is disposed or repaid, the related loss allowance is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income.

(10) Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are presented as a net amount in the statements of financial position when the Group has an enforceable legal right and an intention to settle on a net basis or to realize an asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

(11) Investment properties

The Group classifies a property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation as an investment property. Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs, less subsequent depreciation and impairment.

Subsequent costs are included in the carrying amount of the asset or recognized as a separate asset if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the assets will flow into the Group and the cost of an asset can be measured reliably, and the carrying amount of a portion of an asset that are replaced by a subsequent expenditure is removed from the books. Routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

While land is not depreciated, all other investment properties are depreciated based on the depreciation method and useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, and when it is deemed appropriate to change them, the effect of any change is accounted for as a change in accounting estimates.

An investment property is derecognized from the consolidated financial statements on disposal or when it is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected even from its disposal. The gain or loss on the derecognition of an investment property is calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the property and is recognized in profit or loss in the period of the derecognition.

(12) Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment is expenditure directly attributable to their purchase or construction, which includes any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. It also includes the initial estimate of costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.

Subsequent costs are recognized in the carrying amount of an asset or as a separate asset (if appropriate) if it is probable that future economic benefit associated with the assets will flow into the Group and the cost of an asset can be measured reliably. Routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

While land is not depreciated, for all other Property, Plant and Equipment, depreciation is charged to net income on a straight-line basis by applying the following estimated economic useful lives on the amount of cost or revalued amount less residual value.

	Useful life
Buildings used for business purpose		26 to 57 years
Structures in leased office		4 to 5 years
Properties for business purpose		4 to 7 years

The Group reassesses the depreciation method, the estimated useful lives and residual values of Property, Plant and Equipment at the end of each reporting period. If changes in the estimates are deemed appropriate, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate. When there is an indicator of impairment and the carrying amount of a Property, Plant and Equipment item exceeds the estimated recoverable amount, the carrying amount of such asset is reduced to the recoverable amount.

(13) Intangible assets and goodwill

The Group recognizes the acquisition cost of an intangible asset as the manufacturing cost or purchase cost plus additional incidental expenses. Development costs are the sum of expenditures incurred after the asset recognition requirements, such as technical feasibility and future economic benefits, are met. After the initial recognition, the carrying value is presented as the accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses deducted from the cost.

The Group’s intangible asset are amortized over the following economic lives using the straight-line method. However, for some intangible assets, the period of time that is expected to be available is not predictable, so the useful life of some intangible assets is assessed as indefinite and not depreciated.

The estimated useful life and amortization method of intangible assets with a finite useful life are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. If changes in the estimates are deemed appropriate, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.

	Useful life
Industrial property rights		5 to 10 years
Development costs		5 years
Software and others		1 to 10 years

In addition, when an indicator that intangible assets are impaired is noted, and the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount.

Goodwill acquired in a business combination is included in intangible assets. Goodwill is not amortized, but is subject to an impairment test at the cash-generating unit level every year, and whenever there is an indicator that goodwill is impaired.

Goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating unit (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit on a pro rata basis based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognized directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.

(14) Impairment of non-monetary assets

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives or intangible assets that are not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, regardless of whether there is any indication of impairment. All other assets are tested for impairment by estimating the recoverable amount when there is an objective indication that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverable amount is the higher of value in use or net fair value, less costs to sell. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and such impairment loss is recognized immediately in net income.

(15) Leases

The Group determines whether the contract is a lease or includes a lease at the time of the contract agreement. In exchange for consideration in a contract, the contract is either a lease or includes a lease if the control over the use of the identified asset is transferred for a period of time. In determining whether a contract transfers control over the use of the asset to which it is identified, the Group uses the definition of lease in K-IFRS 1116.

① The Group as a lessee

The Group recognizes the right-of-use asset and the lease liability at the commencement date of the lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, lease payments made at or before the commencement date(less any lease incentives received), initial direct costs, and an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated on a straight-line basis from the commencement of the lease to the end of the lease term. However, if the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term or if the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the lessee will exercise a purchase option, the lessee depreciates the right-of-use asset same as a fixed asset from the commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. The right-of-use asset may be reduced by an impairment of the underlying asset or adjusted by remeasurement of the lease liability.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that cannot be readily determined, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate. The Group generally uses the incremental borrowing rate.

The Group makes adjustments to reflect the terms of the lease and the characteristics of the lease asset in interest rates obtained from external financial information, and calculates the incremental borrowing rate.

The Group calculates the lease term by including the relevant period when it is quite certain that the lessee will exercise the extension option or the termination option. The Group calculates the enforceable period in consideration of the economic disadvantages of terminating the contract if the lessee and the lessor have the right to terminate it without the consent of the other parties.

The lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:

- Fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments)

- Variable lease payments that depend on an index(or a rate), initially measured using the index or a rate as at the commencement date

- Amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees

- The exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option, lease payments of the extended period if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise extension option, and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease

The lease liability is subsequently increased be the interest expense recognized for the lease liability and decreased by reflecting the payment of the lease payments. The lease liability is remeasured if the future lease payments change depending on changes in the index(or a rate), changes in the expected amount to be paid under the residual value guarantee, and changes in the assessment of whether the purchase or extension option is reasonably certain to be exercised or not to exercise the terminate option.

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

When remeasuring a lease liability, the related right-of-use asset is adjusted and if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset decreases to zero, the remeasurement amount is recognized in profit or loss.

The Group applies its judgment when determining the lease term for some lease contracts that include the extension option. The assessment of whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise the option significantly affects the lease term and therefore has a significant impact on the amount of lease liabilities and the right-of-use asset.

Because the Group can replace the asset without significant cost or business discontinuation, the option to extend the lease is not included in the lease liability in most offices and vehicle transport leases.

The Group reevaluates the lease term when the option is exercised (or not exercised) or the Group is liable to exercise (or not exercise) the option. Group will change its judgment only when significant events occur that affect the lessee’s control and the determination of the lease term, or there is a significant change in the circumstances.

Lease liabilities and right-of-use-asset increased by 7,373 million Won, reflecting the exercise impact of the extension and termination options during the current term.

In the statement of financial position, the Group classified the right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property as ‘Property, Plant and Equipment’ and the lease liabilities as ‘other financial liabilities.’

The Group has chosen a practical expedient that does not recognize the right-of-use asset and lease liabilities for short-term leases with a lease term less than 12 months and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. The Group recognizes the lease payments associated with those leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

② The Group as a lessor

At the date of the agreement or the effective date of the modification containing the lease element, the Group allocates the consideration of the contract to each lease element based on its relative stand-alone price.

As a lessor, the Group classifies its leases as either a finance lease or an operating lease at the commencement date.

The Group subsequently judges whether the lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset, otherwise a lease is classified as an operating lease.

If the agreement contains both lease and non-lease elements, the Group applies K-IFRS 1115 to allocate the consideration of the contract.

The Group applies the derecognition and impairment provisions of K-IFRS 1109 to its net investment in the lease. The Group also carries out regular review of the unguaranteed residual value used to calculate total lease investment.

The Group recognizes lease payments from operating lease as income on a straight-line basis.

The accounting policy that the Group has applied as a lessor is not different from K-IFRS 1116.

(16) Derivative instruments

Derivative instruments are classified as forwards, futures, options and swaps, depending on the types of transactions and are classified at the point of transaction as either trading or hedging based on its purpose.

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date of contract and are subsequently measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in net income immediately unless the derivative is designated or effective as a hedging instrument. If derivatives have been designated as hedging instruments and if it is effective, the point of recognition of gain or loss depends on the characteristics of hedging relationship.

Derivatives that have positive (+) fair values are recognized as financial assets and those that have negative (-) fair values are recognized as financial liabilities. Derivatives are not offset in the consolidated financial statements unless they have legally enforceable right to set off or are intended to set off.

1) Embedded derivatives

Embedded derivatives are components of a hybrid financial instrument that includes a non-derivative host contract. It has an effect of modifying part of cash flows of the hybrid financial instrument similar to an independent derivative.

Embedded derivatives that are part of a hybrid contract of which the host contract is a financial asset within the scope of K-IFRS 1109 are not separated. The classification is done by considering the hybrid contract as a whole, and subsequent measurement is either at amortized cost or fair value.

If embedded derivatives are part of a hybrid contract of which the host contract is not a financial asset within the scope of K-IFRS 1109 (e.g. financial liability), then these are treated as separate derivatives if embedded derivatives meet the definition of a derivative, characteristics & risk of the embedded derivatives are not closely related to that of host contract, and if the host contract is not measured at FVTPL.

2) Hedge accounting

The Group is applying K-IFRS 1109 in regard to hedge accounting. The Group is designating certain derivatives as hedging instrument against fair value changes in relation to the interest rate risk, foreign currency translation and interest rate risk, and foreign currency translation risk.

The Group is documenting the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items at the commencement of hedging in accordance with their purpose and strategy. Also, the Group documents at the commencement and subsequent dates whether the hedging instrument effectively counters the changes in fair value of hedged items. A hedging instrument is effective only when it meets all the following criteria:

- When there is an economic relationship between the hedged items and hedging instruments

- When the effect of credit risk is not stronger than the change in value due to the economic relationship between the hedged items and hedging instruments

- When the hedge ratio of hedging relationship is equal to the proportion of the number of items that the group actually hedges and the number of hedging instruments that the Group actually uses to hedge the number of hedged items

When a hedging relationship no longer meets the hedging effectiveness requirements related to hedge ratio, but when the purpose of risk management on designated hedging relationship is still maintained, the hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is adjusted so that hedging relationship may meet the requirements again (Hedge ratio readjustment).

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

The Group has designated derivatives as hedging instrument except for the portion on foreign currency basis spread. The fair value change due to foreign currency basis spread is recognized in other comprehensive income and is accumulated in equity. If the hedged item is related to transactions, the accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss when the hedged item affects the profit or loss. However, when non-monetary items are subsequently recognized due to hedged items, the accumulated equity is removed from the equity directly, and is included in the initial carrying amount of the recognized non-monetary items. Such transfers does not affect other comprehensive income. But if part or all of accumulated equity is not expected to be recovered in the future periods, the amount not expected to be recovered is immediately reclassified to profit or loss. If the hedged item is time-related, then the foreign currency basis spread on the day the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument that is related to the hedged item is reclassified to profit or loss over the term of the hedge.

3) Fair value hedge

Gain or loss arising from valid hedging instrument is recognized in profit or loss. However, when the hedging instrument mitigates risks on equity instruments designated as financial assets at FVTOCI, related gain or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income.

The carrying amount of hedged items that are not measured in fair value is adjusted by the changes in fair value arising from the hedged risk, with resulting gain or loss reflected in net income. In case of debt instruments measured at FVTOCI, carrying amount is an amount that is already adjusted to fair value and thus gain or loss arising from the hedged risk is recognized in profit or loss instead of other comprehensive income without adjustments in carrying amount. When the hedged item is equity instruments measured at FVTOCI, the gain or loss arising from hedged risk is retained at other comprehensive income in order to match the gain or loss with hedging instruments.

When gains or losses arising from the hedged risk are recognized in profit or loss of the current term, they are recognized as items related to the hedged items.

Hedge accounting ceases to apply only when hedging relationship (or part of it) does not meet the requirements of hedge accounting (even after hedging relationship readjustment, if applicable). This treatment holds in case of lapse, disposal, expiry and exercise of hedging instruments, and this cease of treatment applies prospectively. The fair value adjustments made to carrying amount of hedged item due to hedged risk is amortized from the date of discontinuance of hedge accounting and is recognized in profit or loss.

4) Cash flow hedge

The Group recognizes the effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives and other valid hedging instruments that are designated and qualified as cash flow hedges in other comprehensive income to the extent of cumulative fair value changes of the hedged item from the starting date of hedge accounting and it is cumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in net income.

Amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified to net income when the hedged item affects net income. However, when non-monetary assets or liabilities are subsequently recognized due to expected transactions involving hedged items, the valuation gain or loss accumulated in the equity as other comprehensive income is removed from the equity and included in the initial carrying amount of the recognized non-monetary assets or liabilities. Such transfers does not affect other comprehensive income. Also, if the cash flow hedge reserve is loss and accumulated other comprehensive income is a loss and part or all of the losses are not expected to be recovered in the future periods, the said amount is immediately reclassified to profit or loss.

Hedge accounting ceases to apply only when hedging relationship (or part of it) does not meet the requirements of hedge accounting (even after hedging relationship readjustment, if applicable). This treatment holds in case of lapse, disposal, expiry and exercise of hedging instruments, and this cease of treatment applies prospectively. At the point of cessation of cash flow hedge, the valuation gain or loss recognized as accumulated other comprehensive income continues to be recognized as equity, and is reclassified to profit or loss when the expected transaction is ultimately recognized as profit or loss. However, when transactions are no longer expected to occur, the valuation gain or loss of hedging instrument recognized as accumulated other comprehensive income is immediately reclassified to profit or loss.

(17) Assets (or disposal group) held for sale

The Group classifies a non-current asset (or disposal group) as held for sale if its carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. Non-current assets (and disposal groups) classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their previous carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.

(18) Provisions

Provisions are recognized if it has present or contractual obligations as a result of the past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation is reliably estimated. A provision is not recognized for the future operating losses.

The Group recognizes provisions related to the payment guarantees, loan commitment and litigations. Under the terms of lease agreement, the cost incurred by the Group to recover the leased asset to its original state are recognized as provisions at the commencement of the lease or during a specific period in which the obligation is incurred as a result of the using the asset. The provisions are measured as the best estimate of the expenditure required to recover the asset, which is regularly reviewed and sated to the new situation.

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the probability that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the obligations as a whole. Although the likelihood of outflow for any one item may be small, if it is probable that some outflow of resources will be needed to settle the obligations as a whole, a provision is recognized.

At the end of each reporting period, the remaining provision balance is reviewed an assessed to determine if the current best estimate is being recognized.

(19) Equity instruments issued by the Group

1) Capital and compound financial instruments

The Group classifies a financial instrument that it issues as a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. A financial liability is a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset to another entity. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. The compound financial instruments are financial instruments where it is neither a financial liability nor an equity instrument because it was designed to contain both equity and debt elements.

If the Group reacquires its own equity instruments, the consideration paid including the direct transaction costs (net of tax expense) are presented as a deduction from total equity until such instruments are retired or reissued. When these instruments are reissued, the consideration received (net of direct transaction costs) is included in the shareholder’s equity.

2) Hybrid securities

The Group classifies hybrid securities that have the unconditional right to avoid contractual obligations, such as to deliver cash or other financial assets in relation to financial instruments into equity instruments and presents as part of equity. Meanwhile, hybrid securities issued by subsidiaries of the group are classified as non-controlling interests according to the criteria, and the distribution paid is treated as net profit attributable to non-controlling interests in the consolidated comprehensive income statement.

(20) Financial guarantee contracts

A financial guarantee contract is a contract where the issuer must pay a certain amount of money in order to compensate losses suffered by the creditor when debtor defaults on a debt instrument in accordance with original or modified contractual terms.

A financial guarantee is initially measured at fair value and is subsequently measured at the higher of the amounts below unless it is designated to be measured at FVTPL or when it arises from disposal of an asset.

- Loss allowance in accordance with K-IFRS 1109

- Initial carrying amount less accumulated profit measured in accordance with K-IFRS 1115

(21) Employee benefits and pensions

The Group recognizes the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by the employees. Also, the Group recognizes expenses and liabilities in the case of accumulating compensated absences when the employees render services that entitle their right to future compensated absences. Similarly, the Group recognizes expenses and liabilities for customary profit distribution or bonuses when the employees render services, even though the Group does not have legal obligation to do so because it can be construed as constructive obligation.

The Group is operating defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans. Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as an expense when employees have rendered services entitling them to receive the benefits. For defined benefit plans, the defined benefit liability is calculated through an actuarial assessment using the projected unit credit method every end of the reporting period, conducted by a professional actuaries. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding the amount included in net interest from net defined benefit liability (asset)), and the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling is reflected immediately in the consolidated statement of financial position with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur.

Remeasurement recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income is not reclassified to profit or loss in the subsequent periods. Past service cost is recognized in profit or loss in the period of a plan amendment. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset. Defined benefit costs are composed of service cost (including current service cost and past service cost, as well as gains and losses on settlements), net interest expense (income) and remeasurement.

The Group presents the service cost and net interest expense (income) components in profit or loss, and the remeasurement component in other comprehensive income. Curtailment gains and losses are accounted for as past service costs.

The retirement benefit obligation recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position represents the actual deficit or surplus in the Group’s defined benefit plans. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is recognized as an asset limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.

Liabilities for termination benefits are recognized at the earlier of either the date when the Group is no longer able to cancel its proposal for termination benefits or the date when the Group has recognized the cost of restructuring that accompanies the payment of termination benefits.

(22) Income taxes

Income tax expense is composed of current tax and deferred tax. That is, income tax expense is composed of taxes payable or refundable during the period and deferred taxes calculated by applying asset-liability method to taxable and deductible temporary differences arising from operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Temporary differences are the differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases. Deferred income tax benefit or expense is recognized for the change in deferred tax assets or liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured as of the reporting date using the enacted or substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or asset is realized. Deferred tax assets, including the carryforwards of unused tax losses, are recognized to the extent it is probable that the deferred tax assets will be realized.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset if, and only if, the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority or when the entity intends to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis with different taxable entities.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit(tax loss) nor the accounting profit.

Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity or when it arises from business combination.

The tax uncertainty arises from the compensation claim filed by the Group, and refund litigation for the amount of tax levied by the tax authority due to differences in tax law analysis. In response, the Group paid taxes in accordance with K-IFRS 2123 due to the tax authority’s claim, but recognized as a corporate tax asset if it is highly probable of a refund in the future. In addition, the Group appropriately estimates and reflects the amount of corporate tax liabilities based on the analysis of corporate tax laws and the evaluation of many factors, including past experiences.

(23) Criteria of calculating earnings per share (“EPS”)

Basic EPS is a calculation of net income per each common stock. It is calculated by dividing net income attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting the earnings and number of shares for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares.

(24) Share-based payment

For cash-settled share-based payment transactions that provide cash in return for the goods or services received, the Group measures the goods or services received, and the corresponding liability at the fair value and recognizes as employee benefit expenses and liabilities during the vesting period. The fair value of the liability is remeasured at the end of each reporting period and the settlement date until the liability is settled, and changes in fair value are recognized as employee benefits.

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

Material accounting estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated based on a number of factors, including historical experience and expectations of future events that are considered reasonably probable. Accounting estimates calculated based on these definitions may not match actual results. The accounting estimates and assumptions that include a significant risk of materially changing the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities currently recognized in the following accounting period are as follows.

The Korean government implemented support measures such as loan repayment deferment to mitigate the negative impact of COVID-19. The Group determined that the credit risk of loans affected by the repayment deferment has significantly increased, with a high possibility of default. The Group will continue to evaluate the adequacy of forward-looking information regarding the duration of the economic impacts of COVID-19 and future government policies even after termination of financial support. The Group also manages credit risk on loans with extended maturities.

<Woori Bank>

Woori Bank recognizes additional expected credit loss allowance for loans subject to payment holiday and extended maturities due to the assessment of the high possibility of default.

Woori Bank’s total loans (loan receivables, payment guarantees) that are subject to payment holiday and that changed its stage from 12-month to lifetime expected credit losses (Stage 2) due to the increase in credit risk considering payment holiday, and additionally recognized expected credit loss allowances are as follows. (Unit: Korean Won in millions):

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

In addition, as of December 31, 2023, the Group reflects the forward-looking information in the estimated probability of default rate and recognizes additional expected credit loss allowance appropriations by adjusting the forward-looking indicators in consideration of the Korean government financial support policies, increased economic uncertainty, and potential insolvency due to market interest rate hikes.

<Woori Card>

Woori Card Co., Ltd. recognize an additional allowance for expected credit losses as it evaluates loans with payment holiday and extended maturities as having a high probability of default. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, which credit risk has increased significantly due to payment holiday, financial assets at amortized cost of debtors transferred from 12-month expected credit loss measurement to lifetime expected credit losses are 6,764 million Won and 6,670 million Won, respectively, and additionally recognized expected credit loss allowance are 131 million Won and 177 million Won, respectively.

<Woori Financial Capital Co., Ltd.>

Woori Financial Capital Co., Ltd. recognize an additional allowance for expected credit losses as it evaluates loans with payment holiday and extended maturities as having a high probability of default. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, which credit risk has increased significantly due to payment holiday, financial assets at amortized cost of debtors transferred from 12-month expected credit loss measurement to lifetime expected credit losses are 24,384 million Won and 52,611 million Won, respectively, and additionally recognized expected credit loss allowance are 5,284 million Won and 9,846 million Won, respectively.

1) Income taxes

The Group has recognized current and deferred taxes based on best estimates of expected future income tax effect arising from the Group’s operations until the end of the current reporting period. However, actual tax payment may not be identical to the related assets/liabilities already recognized, and these differences may affect current taxes and deferred tax assets/liabilities at the time when income tax effects are finalized. Deferred tax assets relating to tax losses carried forward and deductible temporary differences are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the tax losses carried forward and the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. In this case the Group’s evaluation considers various factors such as estimated future taxable profit based on forecasted operating results, which are based on historical financial performance. The Group is reviewing the carrying amount of deferred tax assets every end of the reporting period and in the event that the possibility of earning future taxable income changes, the deferred tax assets are adjusted up to taxable income sufficient to use deductible temporary differences.

2) Valuation of financial instruments

Financial assets at FVTPL and FVTOCI are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at fair value. All derivatives are measured at fair value. Valuation techniques are required in order to determine fair values of financial instruments where observable market prices do not exist. Financial instruments that are not actively traded and have low price transparency will have less objective fair value and require broad judgment in liquidity, concentration, uncertainty in market factors and assumption in price determination and other risks.

As described in ‘2. Basis of Preparation and Material Accounting Policies (9) 5) Fair value of financial instruments’, when valuation techniques are used to determine the fair value of a financial instrument, various general and internally developed techniques are used, and various types of assumptions and variables are incorporated during the process.

3) Impairment of financial instruments

The accuracy of the provision for credit losses is determined by the estimation of the expected cash flows for each tenant for estimating the individually assessed loan-loss allowance, and the assumptions and variables in the model used for estimating the collectively assessed loan-loss allowance payment, guarantee and unused commitment.

The Group has estimated the allowance for credit losses based on reasonable and supportable information that was available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

Information on measuring expected credit loss is described in 4. Risk Management (1) 2) Measurement of expected credit loss.

4) Defined benefit plan

The Group operates a defined benefit pension plan. Defined benefit obligation is calculated at every end of the reporting period by performing actuarial valuation, and estimation of assumptions such as discount rate, expected wage growth rate and mortality rate is required to perform such actuarial valuation. The defined benefit plan, due to its long-term nature, contains significant uncertainties in its estimates.

5) Impairment of goodwill

The recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGU) is determined based on value-in-use calculations.

4. RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group is exposed to various risks that may arise from its operating activities and the main types of risks are credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk and etc. The Risk Management Organization analyzes and assesses the level of complex risks in order to manage the risks and the risk management standards such as policies, regulations, management systems and decision-making have been established and operated for sound management of the Group.

The risk management organization is operated by Risk Management Committee, Chief Risk Officer(CRO), and Risk Management Department. The Board of Directors operates a Risk Management Committee comprised of outside directors for professional risk management. The Risk Management Committee plays a role as the top decision-making body in risk management by establishing basic policies for risk management that are in line with the Group’s management strategy and determining the risk level that the Group is willing to take.

The Chief Risk Officer (CRO) assists the Risk Management Committee and operates a Group Risk Management Council comprised of risk management managers of subsidiaries to periodically check and improve the risk burden of external environments and the Group. The risk management department is independent and is in charge of risk management of the Group. It also supports reporting and decision-making of key risk-related issues.

(1) Credit risk

Credit risk represents the possibility of financial losses incurred due to the refusal of the transaction or when the counterparty fails to fulfill its contractual obligations. The goal of credit risk management is to maintain the Group’s credit risk exposure to a permissible degree and to optimize its rate of return considering such credit risk.

1) Credit risk management

To measure credit risk, the Group considers the possibility of failure in performing the obligation by the counterparties, credit exposure to the counterparty, the related default risk and the rate of default loss. The Group uses the credit rating model to assess the possibility of counterparty’s default risk; and when assessing the obligor’s credit rating, other than quantitative methods utilizing financial statements and others, and assessor’s judgement, the Group utilizes credit rating derived using statistical methods.

In order to manage credit risk limit, the Group establishes the appropriate credit line per obligor, company or industry by monitoring obligor’s credit line, total exposures and loan portfolios when approving the loan.

The Group mitigates credit risk resulting from the obligor’s credit condition by using financial and physical collateral, guarantees, netting agreements and purchase of credit derivatives that have low correlation with the obligor’s credit status. The Group has adopted the comprehensive method to mitigate its credit risk. Credit risk mitigation is reflected in qualifying financial collateral, trade receivables, guarantees, residential and commercial real estate and other collaterals. The Group regularly performs a revaluation of collateral reflecting such credit risk mitigation.

2) Measurement of expected credit loss

K-IFRS 1109 requires entities to measure loss allowance equal to 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses after classifying financial assets into one of the three stages, depending on the degree of increase in credit risk since their initial recognition.

Classification	Stage 1	Stage 2	Stage 3
Definition	No significant increase in credit risk after initial recognition (*)	Significant increase in credit risk after initial recognition	Credit-impaired
Loss allowance	12-month expected credit losses:	Lifetime expected credit losses:
	Expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date	Expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of the financial instrument

(*) If the financial instrument has low credit risk at the end of the reporting period, the Group may assume that the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition.

Loss allowance under credit impairment model is measured as the cumulative change in lifetime expected credit loss since initial recognition.

At the end of each reporting period the Group assesses whether credit risk has significantly been increased since the date of initial recognition. The Group assesses whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition by using credit rating, asset quality level, early warning system, days past due and others. For financial assets whose contractual cash flows have been modified, the Group assesses whether there is a significant increase in credit risk on the same basis.

The Group performs the below assessment to both corporate and retail exposures, and indicators of significant increase in credit risk are as follows:

Corporate Exposures	Retail Exposures
Asset quality level ‘Precautionary’ or lower	Asset quality level ‘Precautionary’ or lower
More than 30 days past due	More than 30 days past due
‘Warning’ level in early warning system	Significant decrease in credit rating(*)
Debtor experiencing financial difficulties (Capital impairment, Adverse opinion or Disclaimer of opinion by external auditors)	Deferment of repayment of principal and interest
Significant decrease in credit rating (*)	Deferment of interest
Deferment of repayment of principal and interest
Deferment of interest

(*) The Group has applied the below indicators of significant decrease in credit rating since initial recognition as follows, and the estimation method is regularly being monitored

	Credit rating	Significant increased indicator of the credit rating
Corporate	AAA ~ A+	More than or equal to 4 steps
	A- ~ BBB	More than or equal to 3 steps
	BBB- ~ BB+	More than or equal to 2 steps
	BB ~ BB-	More than or equal to 1 step
Retail	1 ~ 3	More than or equal to 3 steps
	4 ~ 5	More than or equal to 2 steps
	6 ~ 10	More than or equal to 1 step

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

The Group determined that there is no significant increase in credit risk after initial recognition for debt securities, etc. with a credit rating of A + or higher, which are deemed to have low credit risk at the end of the reporting period.

The Group concludes that credit is impaired when financial assets are under conditions stated below:

- When principal and interest of loan is overdue for 90 days or longer due to significant deterioration in credit

- For loans overdue for less than 90 days, when it is determined that not even a portion of the loan will be recovered unless claim actions such as disposal of collaterals are taken

- When other objective indicators of impairment have been noted for the financial asset.

The Group has estimated the allowance for credit losses using an estimation model that additionally reflects the forward looking information based on the past experience loss rate data.

Loss allowance is calculated by applying PD (Probability of Default) and LGD (Loss Given Default) estimated for each financial asset in consideration of factors such as obligor type, credit rating and portfolio. The estimates are regularly being reviewed in order to reduce discrepancies with actual losses.

In measuring the expected credit losses, the Group is also using reasonable and supportable macroeconomic indicators such as GDP growth rate, Personal consumption expenditures increase/decrease rate, consumer price index change rate in order to forecast future economic conditions.

The Group is conducting the following procedures to estimate and apply forward looking information.

- Development of estimation models through regression analysis of corporate retail/year-by-year default rate and macroeconomic indicator data by year

Major macroeconomic indicators	Correlation between credit risk and macroeconomic indicators
GDP growth rate	Negative(-) Correlation
Personal consumption expenditures increase/decrease rate	Negative(-) Correlation
Won-dollar exchange rate	Positive(+) Correlation

- Calculation of estimated default rate incorporating forward looking by applying estimated macroeconomic indicators provided by verified institutions such as Bank of Korea and National Assembly Budget Office to the estimation model developed

- Forecast of macroeconomic variables

a) Probability weight

As of December 31, 2023, the probability weights applied to the scenarios of the forecasts of macroeconomic variables is as follows (Unit: %):

	Base Scenario		Upside Scenario		Downside Scenario		Worst Scenario

5) Collateral and other credit enhancements

For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, there have been no significant changes in the value of collateral or other credit enhancements held by the Group and there have been no significant changes in collateral or other credit enhancements due to changes in the collateral policy of the Group.

6) Among financial assets that measured loss allowance at lifetime expected credit losses, amortized costs before changes in contractual cash flows as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are 161,893 million Won and 149,511 million Won, respectively, with net losses recognized along with the changes 5,107 million Won and 8,474 million Won, respectively.

7) The Group determines which loan is subject to write-off in accordance with internal guidelines and writes off loan receivables when it is determined that the loans are practically irrecoverable. For example, loans are practically irrecoverable when application is made for rehabilitation under the Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act and loans are confirmed as irrecoverable by the court’s decision to waive debtor’s obligation, or when it is impossible to recover the loan amount through legal means such as auctioning of debtor’s assets or through any other means of recovery available.

As the Group manages receivables that have not lost the right of claim to the debtor for the grounds of incomplete statute limitation and uncollected receivables under the related laws as receivable charge-offs, the balance as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are 10,089,739 million Won and 9,825,284 million Won. In addition, the contractual non-recoverable amount of financial assets amortized for the year ended December 31, 2023, but still in the process of recovery is 1,599,465 million Won.

(2) Market risk

Market risk is the possible risk of loss arising from trading position and non-trading position as a result of the volatility of market factors such as interest rates, stock prices and foreign exchange rates.

1) Market risk management

Market risk management refers to the process of making and implementing decisions for the avoidance, acceptance or mitigation of risks by identifying the underlying source of the risks, measuring its level, and evaluating the appropriateness of the level of accepted market risks for both trading and non-trading activities.

a) Trading activities

The Group uses the standard approach and internal model approach (Woori Bank) in measuring market risk for trading positions, and allocates market risk capital through the Risk Management Committee. Risk management departments of the Group and its subsidiaries manage limits in detail including those on risk and loss with their management result regularly reported to the Risk Management Committee.

Subsidiaries such as Woori Bank manage market internal capital limits using the Basel III standard approach, and other subsidiaries manage market risks by applying the simple method.

The Basel III standard approach consists of a sensitivity method that measures linear and nonlinear losses that may occur due to unfavorable fluctuations in market risk factors, bankruptcy risks that may occur due to sudden bankruptcy, and residual risk-bearing equity capital for other losses.

Woori Bank, a major subsidiary subject to Basel III standard approach of market risk management, has the following equity capital required for market risk.(Unit : Korean Won in millions)

	Risk Group	December 31, 2023
Sensitivity-based risk	General interest rate risk		37,832
	Equity risk		9,376

(3) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Group may encounter difficulties in meeting obligations from its financial liabilities.

1) Liquidity risk management

Liquidity risk management is to prevent potential cash shortages as a result of mismatching maturity of assets and liabilities or unexpected cash outflows. The consolidated financial liabilities that are relevant to liquidity risk are incorporated within the scope of risk management. Derivatives instruments are excluded from those financial liabilities as they reflect expected cash flows for a pre-determined period.

Assets and liabilities are grouped by account under Asset Liability Management (“ALM”) in accordance with the characteristics of the account. The Group manages liquidity risk by identifying the maturity gap and such gap ratio through various cash flows analysis (i.e. based on remaining maturity and contract period, etc.), while maintaining the gap ratio at or below the target limit.

The information on early repayment related to asset securitization is described in NOTE 40. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS (4) 5).

2) Maturity analysis of non-derivative financial liabilities

3) Maturity analysis of derivative financial liabilities

Derivatives held for trading purpose are not managed in accordance with their contractual maturity, since the Group holds such financial instruments with the purpose of disposing or redemption before their maturity. As such, those derivatives are incorporated as “within 3 months” in the table below. Derivatives designated for hedging purpose are estimated by offsetting cash inflows and cash outflows.

The cash flow by the maturity of derivative financial liabilities as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 is as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions):

		Remaining maturity
		Within 3 months			4 to 6 months			7 to 9 months			10 to 12 months			1 to 5 years		Over 5 years			Total

4) Maturity analysis of off-balance accounts (Payment guarantees, commitments, and etcs)

A payment guarantee represents an irrevocable undertaking that the Group should meet a customer’s obligations to third parties if the customer fails to do so. The loan commitment represents the limit if the Group has promised a credit to the customer. Loan commitments include commercial standby facilities and credit lines, liquidity facilities to commercial paper conduits and utilized overdraft facilities. The maximum limit to be paid by the Group in accordance with guarantees and loan commitment only applies to principal amounts. There are contractual maturities for payment guarantees, such as financial guarantees for debentures issued or loans, unused loan commitments, and other credits, however, under the terms of the guarantees and unused loan commitments, funds should be paid upon demand from the counterparty. Details of off-balance accounts as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions):

	December 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Payment guarantees		13,793,301		11,921,586
Loan commitments		126,829,192		118,172,070
Other commitments		4,854,099		4,602,429

(4) Operational risk

The Group defines the operational risk that could cause a negative effect on capital resulting from inadequate internal process, labor work and systematic problem or external factors.

1) Operational risk management

The Group has established and operated a group operational risk management system to cope with new Basel III global regulations, which is implemented since 2023, and the management of operational risks follows the procedures for risk recognition, evaluation, measurement, monitoring and reporting, risk control and mitigation.

2) Operational risk measurement

The Group applies the standard approach for the purpose of calculating operational risk required equity capital.

- The standard approach is to calculate operational risk required equity capital by multiplying the Business Indicator Component(BIC), which is calculated by multiplying Business Indicator(BI) that is a measure based on consolidated financial statements and adjustment coefficient, and the Internal Loss Multiplier(ILM), an adjusted multiplier based on the average past loss and operating index.

“Operational risk required equity capital” = Business Indicator Component (BIC) × Internal Loss Multiplier(ILM)

“Business Indicator Component(BIC)” = Business Index(BI) × Adjustment Coefficient

“Internal Loss Multiplier(ILM)” = ln (exp(1)-1 + (Loss Component(LC)/Business Indicator Component(BIC)^0.8)

Bucket	Business Index (BI) section	The coefficient
1	1.4 trillion Won or less	12%
2	More than 1.4 trillion Won and less than or equal to 42 trillion Won	15%
3	Over 42 trillion Won	18%

(5) Capital management

The Group complies with the standard of capital adequacy provided by financial regulatory authorities. The capital adequacy standard is based on Basel III published by Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in Bank for International Settlement and was implemented in Korea in December 2013. The capital adequacy ratio is calculated by dividing own capital by asset (weighted with a risk premium – risk weighted assets) based on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

According to the above regulations, the Group is required to meet the following minimum requirements: Tier 1 common capital ratio of 8.0%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 9.5%, and a total capital ratio of 11.5% as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Details of the Group’s capital adequacy ratio as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions):

Details	December 31, 2023(*)			December 31, 2022
Tier 1 capital		26,343,941			23,757,296

11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

(1) The fair value hierarchy

The fair value hierarchy for financial instruments is determined by the amount of observable market data. The specific financial instruments characteristics and market condition such as the existence of the transactions among market participants and transparency are reflected to the market observable inputs. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Group maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value of its financial assets and financial liabilities. Fair value is measured based on the perspective of a market participant. As such, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Group’s own assumptions reflect those that market participants would use for measuring the assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

The fair value measurement is described in the one of the following three levels used to classify fair value measurements:

• Level 1 - fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The types of financial assets or liabilities generally included in Level 1 are publicly traded equity securities, derivatives, and debt securities issued by governmental bodies.

• Level 2 - fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). The types of financial assets or liabilities generally included in Level 2 are debt securities not traded in active markets and derivatives traded in OTC but not required significant judgment.

• Level 3 - fair value measurements are those derived from valuation technique that include inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). The types of financial assets or liabilities generally included in Level 3 are non-public securities and derivatives and debt securities of which valuation techniques require significant judgments and subjectivity.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Group’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to a fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of inherent factors of the asset or liability.

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

Financial assets and liabilities at FVTPL, financial liabilities at FVTPL designated as upon initial recognition, financial assets at FVTOCI, and derivative assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value. Fair value is the amount that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Financial instruments are measured at fair value using a quoted market price in active markets. If there is no active market for a financial instrument, the Group determines the fair value using valuation methods. Valuation methods and input variables for each type of financial instruments are as follows:

1) Valuation methods and input variables for each type of financial instrument classified into level 2 as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

	Valuation methods	Input variables
Debt securities	Fair value is measured by discounting the future cash flows of debt securities applying the risk-free market rate with credit spread and LSMC and Hull-White model.	Risk-free market rate, credit spread, discount rate originated from credit grade, volatility of stock and volatility of interest rate
Equity securities and beneficiary certificates	The beneficiary certificates are measured at net asset value method, DCF model(Discounted Cash Flow Model), Binomial Tree model and T-F model.	Values of underlying assets such as bond, discount rate, volatility of stock, terminal growth rate etc.
Derivatives	Fair value is measured by models such as option model (Closed form).	Discount rate, volatility, exchange rate, stock prices, fair value originated from forward price etc.
Loans	The future cash flows of debt instruments are measured at a discount by applying the market interest rate applied to entities with similar creditworthiness to the debtor.	Risk-free market rate and credit spread

2) Valuation methods and input variables for each type of financial instrument classified into level 3 as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

	Valuation methods	Input variables
Loans	Fair value is measured by using the DCF model (Discounted Cash Flow Model), which is a valuation technique commonly used in the market taking into account the price and variability of the underlying asset, T-F model, LSMC and Hull-White etc.	Values of underlying assets, volatility, discount rate, volatility of stock, volatility of interest rate
Debt securities	Fair value is measured by models such as LSMC(Least-Squares Monte Carlo), Hull-White model.	Discount rate originated from credit grade, volatility of stocks , volatility of interest rate etc.
Equity securities, capital contributions and Beneficiary certificates	Among DCF (Discounted Cash Flow) Model, FCFE (Free Cash Flow to Equity) Model, Comparable Company Analysis, Dividend Discount Model, Risk-adjusted Rate of Return Method, Net Asset Value Method, LSMC, Hull-White and Precedent Transactions model more than one method is used given the characteristic of the subject of fair value measurement.	Risk-free market rate, market risk premium, corporate Beta, stock prices, volatility of underlying asset, discount rate originated from credit grade, volatility of interest rate, volatility of real estate value, terminal growth rate, PBR, PSR etc.
Derivatives	Fair value is measured by models such as option model.	Correlation, etc.
Others	The fair value of the underlying asset, after calculating the fair value using the DCF model, etc., considering the price and volatility of the calculated underlying asset, is calculated using the binomial tree, which is commonly used valuation techniques in the market.	Stock price, volatility of underlying assets, etc.

			Discount rate	10.42%	Fair value increases as discount rate decreases.
			Growth rate	0.00%	Fair value increases as terminal growth rate increases

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities classified into Level 3 is measured by the Group using its own valuation methods or using external specialists. Unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements are produced by the internal system of the Group and the appropriateness of inputs is reviewed regularly.

(4) Sensitivity analysis results on reasonable fluctuation of the significant unobservable input variables for the fair value of Level 3 financial instruments are as follows.

The sensitivity analysis of the financial instruments has been performed by classifying with favorable and unfavorable changes based on how changes in unobservable assumptions would have effects on the fluctuations of financial instruments’ value. When the fair value of a financial instrument is affected by more than one unobservable assumption, the below table reflects the most favorable or the most unfavorable changes which resulted from varying the assumptions individually. The sensitivity analysis was performed for two types of level 3 financial instruments: (1) interest rate related derivatives, currency related derivatives, equity related derivatives, equity-linked securities beneficiary certificates and loans of which fair value changes are recognized as net income; (2) equity securities of which fair value changes are recognized as other comprehensive income.

Meanwhile, among the financial instruments that are classified as Level 3 amounting to 5,484,098 million Won and 4,695,688 million Won as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, equity instruments of 4,704,747 million Won and 3,196,703 million Won whose carrying amount are considered to represent the reasonable approximation of fair value are excluded from the sensitivity analysis.

The sensitivity on fluctuation of input variables by financial instruments as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 is as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions):

	December 31, 2023

(*1) Fair value changes of equity related derivatives assets and liabilities and equity-linked securities are calculated by increasing or decreasing correlation, which are major unobservable variables, by 10%, respectively.

(*2) Fair value changes of equity securities are calculated by increasing or decreasing stock prices (-10%~10%) and volatility (-10%p~10%p). The stock prices and volatility are major unobservable variables.

(*3) Fair value changes of equity securities are calculated by increasing or decreasing terminal growth rate (-0.5%p~1%p) and discount rate (-1%p~1%p) or liquidation value (-1%p~1%p). The growth rate, discount rate, and liquidation value are major unobservable variables.

(*4) Even if the sensitivity analysis of the capital contributions and beneficiary certificates is not possible in practice, fair value changes of beneficiary certificates and other securities whose major unobservable variables are composed of the real estate are calculated by increasing or decreasing price fluctuation rate of real estate which is underlying assets and discount rate by 1%.

The fair values of financial instruments are measured using quoted market price in active markets. In case there is no active market for financial instruments, the Group determines the fair value by using valuation methods. Valuation methods and input variables for financial assets and liabilities that are measured at amortized cost are given as follows:

	Valuation methods	Input variables
Securities at amortized cost	The fair value is measured by discounting the projected cash flows of debt securities by applying risk-free market rate with credit spread.	Risk-free market rate and credit spread
Loans and other financial assets at amortized cost	The fair value is measured by discounting the projected cash flows of loan products by applying the market discount rate that has been applied to a proxy company that has similar credit rating to the debtor.	Risk-free market rate, credit spread and prepayment rate
Deposits due to customers, borrowings, debentures and other financial liabilities	The fair value is measured by discounting the projected cash flows of debt products by applying the market discount rate that is reflecting credit rating of the Group.	Risk-free market rate and credit spread

12. DERECOGNITION AND OFFSET OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

(1) Derecognition of financial instruments

Transferred financial assets that do not meet the condition of derecognition in their entirety.

1) Bonds sold under repurchase agreements

The financial instruments that were disposed but the Group agreed to repurchase at the fixed amounts at the same time, so that they did not meet the conditions of derecognition, are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions):

		December 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Assets transferred	Financial assets at FVTPL		238,461		214,577

	Securities at amortized cost		48,368		1,171,300
	Total		843,412		1,969,075
Related liabilities	Bonds sold under repurchase agreements		757,691		1,898,744

2) Securities loaned

When the Group loans its securities to outside parties, the legal ownerships of the securities are transferred; however, they should be returned at the end of lending period. Therefore, the Group does not derecognize them from the consolidated financial statements as it owns majority of risks and benefits from the securities continuously, regardless of the transfer of legal ownership. The carrying amount of the securities loaned are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions):

		December 31, 2023		December 31, 2022		Loaned to
Financial assets at FVTPL	Korean treasury and government bonds		625,398		—	The Korea Securities Finance Corporation
Financial assets at FVTOCI	Korean treasury and government bonds		592,218		98,027	Korea Securities Depository

3) Liquidity of financial assets

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the consolidated structured companies issued asset-backed securities with loans and corporate bonds held by the Group as liquid assets, and the Group bear related risks through the purchase agreements or credit contributions. The transaction details of the transfer of the financial instrument are as follows:

		December 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
		Carrying amount (*)		Carrying amount (*)

(*) The carrying amount is the amount before the allowance for bad debts.

On the other hand, the details of transferred financial assets that have not been removed, such as bonds sold under the repurchase agreement and loan securities, are also described in Note 18. The Group does not have financial instruments that are continuously involved.

(2) The offset of financial assets and liabilities

The Group possesses both the uncollected domestic exchange receivables and the unpaid domestic exchange payable, which satisfy offsetting criteria of K-IFRS 1032. Therefore, the total number of uncollected domestic exchange receivables has been offset with a part of unpaid domestic exchange payables, and they have been disclosed in loans at amortized cost and other financial assets and other financial liabilities of the Group’s statements of financial position, respectively.

The Group possesses the derivative assets, derivative liabilities, receivable spot exchange and payable spot exchange that do not satisfy the offsetting criteria of K-IFRS 1032, but provide the Group under the circumstances of the trading party’s default, insolvency or bankruptcy, with the right of offsetting. Items such as cash collateral cannot satisfy the offsetting criteria of K-IFRS 1032, but in accordance with the collateral arrangements and under the circumstances of the trading party’s default, insolvency or bankruptcy, the net amount of derivative assets and derivative liabilities, receivable spot exchange and payable spot exchange can be offset.

The Group has entered into a resale and repurchase agreement and accounted it as a collateralized borrowing. The Group has also entered into a resale and purchase agreement and accounted it as a secured loans. The Group under the repurchase agreements has an offsetting right only upon the counterparty’s default, insolvency or bankruptcy; thus, the repurchase agreements are applied by the TBMA/ISMA Global Master Repurchase Agreement, which does not satisfy the offsetting criteria of K-IFRS 1032. The Group disclosed bonds sold under repurchase agreements as borrowings and bonds purchased under resale agreements as loan at amortized cost and other financial assets.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the financial instruments to be offset and may be covered by master netting agreements and similar agreements are as follows (Unit: Korean Won in millions):

(*4) The Group has acquired PT Batavia Prosperindo Finance Tbk to expand installment finance business in Indonesia, and recognized the goodwill as it is expected to strengthen the competitiveness and existing customer relationships by securing sales network of used cars in Indonesia.

2) Impairment test

The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is measured at larger amount between the fair value less costs to sell and the value to use.

The net fair value is calculated by deducting costs of disposal from the amount received from the sale of the cash-generating unit in an arm’s length transaction between the parties with reasonable judgment and willingness to negotiate. In case of difficulty in measuring this amount, the sale amount of a similar cash-generating unit in the past market is calculated by reflecting the characteristics of the cash-generating unit. If reliable information related to fair value less costs to sell is not available, value in use is considered as recoverable amount. Value in use is the present value of future cash flows expected to be generated by the cash-generating unit. Future cash flows are estimated based on the latest financial budget approved by the management, with an estimated period of up to five years. The Group applied 1.0% - 4.3% growth rate to estimate future cash flow for the period over five years. The main assumptions used to estimate cash flows are about the size of the market and the share of the group. The appropriate discount rate for discounting future cash flows is the pre-tax discount rate, including assumptions about risk-free interest rates, market risk premium, and systemic risk of cash-generating units. The impairment test, which compares the carrying amount and recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated, is conducted every year and every time an impairment sign occurs.

Carrying amount		414,455		160,596		221,248		740,558		509,730		120,355

(*) The Group conducted a consolidated impairment test on the goodwill of Woori Asset Management and Woori Global Asset Management, which are scheduled to merge in January 2024.

As a result of the impairment test on goodwill, it is determined that the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit to which the goodwill has been allocated will not exceed the recoverable amount.

In this regard, the Office of Foreign Assets Control concluded its investigation in December 2020 urging the bank’s attention without taking any additional sanctions, and New York State Department of Financial Services concluded its investigation in February 2022 without taking any additional sanctions. Meanwhile, in June 2022, the Group reversed the provision related to the investigation of the U.S. Prosecutors, which have not been completed yet, in consideration of the opinion of an independent legal expert that the probability of sanctions by the U.S. Prosecutors in this case is low.

24. NET DEFINED BENEFIT LIABILITY(ASSET)

The Group’s pension plan is based on the defined benefit retirement pension plan. Employees and directors with one or more years of service are entitled to receive a payment upon termination of their employment, based on their length of service and rate of salary at the time of termination. The assets of the plans are measured at their fair value at the end of reporting date. The plan liabilities are measured using the projected unit method, which takes account of projected earnings increases, using actuarial assumptions that give the best estimate of the future cash flows that will arise under the plan liabilities.

The Group is exposed to various risks through defined benefit retirement pension plan, and the most significant risks are as follows:

Volatility of asset	The defined benefit obligation was estimated with an interest rate calculated based on blue chip corporate bonds earnings. A deficit may occur if the rate of return of plan assets falls short of the interest rate.
Decrease in profitability of blue-chip bonds	A decrease in profitability of blue-chip bonds will be offset by some increase in the value of debt securities that the employee benefit plan owns but will bring an increase in the defined benefit obligation.
Risk of inflation	Defined benefit obligations are related to inflation rate; the higher the inflation rate is, the higher the level of liabilities. Therefore, deficit occurs in the system if an inflation rate increases.

(2) Overview of the Group’s hedge accounting

1) Fair value hedge

As of December 31, 2023, the Group has applied fair value hedge on fixed interest rate foreign currency denominated debentures amounting to 3,682,140 million Won, and foreign currency loans amounting to 261,084 million Won. The purpose of the hedging is to avoid fair value volatility risk of fixed interest rate foreign and local currency denominated debentures derived from fluctuations of market interest rate, and as such the Group entered into interest rate swap agreements designated as hedging instruments.

Pursuant to the interest rate swap agreement, by swapping the calculated difference between the fixed interest rate and floating interest rate applied to the nominal value, the fair value fluctuation risk is hedged as the foreign currency denominated debentures fixed interest rate terms are converted to floating interest rate. Pursuant to the interest rate swap agreement, hedge ratio is determined by matching the nominal value of hedging instrument to the face value of the hedged item.

In this hedging relationship, only the market interest rate fluctuation, which is the most significant part of the fair value change of the hedged item, is designated as the hedged risk, and other risk factors including credit risk are not included in the hedged risk. Therefore, the ineffective portion of the hedge could arise from fluctuations in the timing of the cash flow of the hedged item, price margin set by counterparty of hedging instrument, and unilateral change in credit risk of any party of hedging instrument.

The interest rate swap agreements and the hedged items are subject to fluctuations in the underlying market rate of interest and the Group expects the fair value of the interest rate swap contract and the value of the hedged item to generally change in the opposite direction.

The fair value of the interest rate swap at the end of the reporting period is determined by discounting future cash flows estimated by using the yield curve at the end of the reporting period and the credit risk embedded in the contract and the average interest rate is determined based on the outstanding balance at the end of the reporting period. The variable interest rate applied to the interest rate swap is Compounding SOFR or CD 3M plus spread. In accordance with the terms of each interest rate swap contract designated as a hedging instrument, the Group receives interest at a fixed interest rate and pays interest at a variable interest rate.

2) Cash Flow Hedge

As of the December 31, 2023, the Group has applied cash flow hedge on local currency denominated debentures amounting to 179,945 million won and debentures on foreign currency amounting to 752,447 million won The Group’s hedging strategies are to ① Mitigate risks of cash flow fluctuation from variable interest rate debentures on local currency due to changes in market interest rate by entering into an interest rate swap contract and thereby designating it as hedging instrument; ② Mitigate the risks of cash flow fluctuation from principal and interest of variable interest rate debentures denominated in foreign currency due to changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates by entering into a currency swap contract and thereby designating it as hedging instrument; ③ Mitigate the risks of cash flow fluctuation from principal and interest of fixed interest rate debentures denominated in foreign currency due to changes in foreign exchange rates and ④ Mitigate the risks of cash flow fluctuation in variable interest rate foreign currency borrowings resulting from changes in market interest rates and designate it as a hedging instrument through entering into currency swap contracts and interest rate swap contracts.

This means exchanging a predetermined nominal amount as set forth in the interest rate swap contract adjusted by the differences between the fixed and variable interest rates, which results in the conversion of interest rates of debentures in local currency from variable interest into fixed interest, eliminating the cash flow fluctuation risk.

- 151 -

WOORI FINANCIAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

In addition, this also means a payment of predetermined principal amount as set forth in the currency swap adjusted by fixed interest rate, an exchange of an amount calculated by applying variable interest rate to USD or applying fixed interest rate to SGD, and an exchange of the principal denominated in KRW and principal denominated in foreign currency at maturity eliminating cash flow fluctuation risk on principal and interest.

The hedge ratio is determined by matching the nominal amount of the hedging instrument to the face amount of the hedged item in accordance with interest rate swap and currency swap.

Only interest rate and foreign exchange rate fluctuation risk, which is the most significant factor in the cash flow fluctuation of the hedged item, is addressed in this hedging relationship, and other risk factors such as credit risk are not subject to hedging.

Thus, there could be hedge ineffectiveness arising from price margin set by the counterparty of hedging instruments and unilateral change in credit risk of any party in the transaction.

The interest rate swap, currency swap contract and the hedged item are all affected by the changes in market interest rate and foreign exchange rates which are basic factors of the derivative. The Group expects that the value of interest rate swap contract, currency swap contract and value of the hedged item will generally fluctuate in opposite direction.

3) Hedges of Net Investment in Foreign Operations

Foreign currency exposure arises from the Group’s net investments in Woori America Bank, Woori Bank(Cambodia) PLC and Hong Kong Woori Investment Bank, and overseas branches, which use USD as their functional currency. The risk arises from fluctuations in the spot exchange rate between USD and KRW. This may result in different net investment amounts.

The risk hedged in the net investment hedging is the volatility of KRW against USD, which may reduce the carrying amount of the Group’s net investments in Woori America Bank, Woori Bank(Cambodia) PLC and Hong Kong Woori Investment Bank.

A portion of the Group’s net investments in Woori America Bank, Woori Bank(Cambodia) PLC and Hong Kong Woori Investment Bank, and overseas branches are hedged in USD denominated foreign currency bonds(Carrying amount as of December 31, 2023: USD 863,959,317) and mitigate foreign exchange risk arising from the net assets of subsidiaries.

The bonds was designated as a hedging instrument for changes in the value of net investment resulting from fluctuations in the USD/KRW spot exchange rate.

To assess the effectiveness of the hedging instrument, the Group determines the economic relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item by comparing (offsetting) changes in the carrying amount of the liability due to changes in the spot exchange rate with changes. The Group’s policy is to hedge the net investment only within the principal range of the liability.

(*1) As the amount of payment varies according to the base price (the arithmetic average of the weighted average stock price of transactions in the past one week, the past one month, and the past two months) at the date of payment, the fair value is calculated to measure the liability according to the Black Scholes model based on the base price at the time of each settlement.

(*2) It is a system in which the amount of stock payable is determined at the beginning, and the payment rate is determined in accordance with the degree of achievement of the pre-set performance target. Performance is evaluated by long-term performance indicators such as relative shareholder return, net profit, return on equity (ROE), non-performing loan ratio, and job performance.

2) The Group accounts for performance condition share-based payments according to the cash-settled method and the fair value of the liabilities is reflected in the compensation costs by re-measuring every closing period. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the carrying amount of the liabilities related to the performance condition share-based payments recognized by the Group amounts to 46,741 million Won and 41,334 million Won, respectively, including the carrying amount of liabilities related to key management of 19,924 million Won and 17,494 million Won, respectively.

(4) Other commitments

1) As of December 31, 2023, Woori FIS Co., Ltd, a subsidiary, has been provided with a payment guarantee limit of 6,457 million Won in relation to bid guarantees and contract/defect guarantees from the Korean Software Financial Cooperative, but there is no committed amount. In relation to the guarantee, the capital contributions to the Korean Software Financial Cooperative are provided as collateral. In addition, as of December 31, 2023, Seoul Guarantee Insurance Company is providing a payment guarantee of 374 million Won related to the return of subsidy to the daycare center at work.

2) As of December 31, 2023, Woori FIS Co., Ltd, a subsidiary agreed with Shinhan Bank for short-term borrowings of 20 billion Won for one year (2023.11.16.~2024.11.16.), and there is no outstanding balance of short-term borrowings as of December 31, 2023.

3) As of December 31, 2023, Woori Savings bank is provided with a guarantee of 1,593 million Won from Seoul Guarantee Insurance Company in relation to provisional attachment for recovery of loans, etc.

4) As of December 31, 2023, Woori Asset Trust, a subsidiary, has committed to fulfill responsibility for the completion of 43 projects, including a residential-commercial complex in U-dong, Haeundae-gu, Busan. Responsible completion type management land trust is a trust that bears the obligation of responsible completion when the construction company fails to fulfill the obligation of responsible completion, and the obligation to compensate losses to the lending financial institution if Woori Asset Trust fails to fulfill the obligation of responsible completion. As of December 31, 2023, the total amount of PF(Project Financing) loans from PF lending financial institutions invested in the responsible completion type management land trust business is 2,275,634 million Won. Although additional losses may occur in relation to these contracts for liability obligations, these effects were not reflected in the financial statements at the end of the current period because the possibility is not high and the amount of losses cannot be reliably estimated. Meanwhile, Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd. has failed to fulfill the responsibility of the completion of 5 projects including the Okjeong Knowledge Industry Center in Yangju. The total amount of PF limit from PF lending financial institutions invested in projects is 271,000 million Won and the amount of PF loans is 161,700 million Won. Additionally, Woori Asset Trust Co., Ltd. has exceeded the deadline for responsibility of completion of a commercial facility in Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province. The total amount of PF limit from PF lending financial institutions invested in projects is 61,000 million Won and the amount of PF loans is 43,000 million Won. Also, as of December 31, 2023, Woori Asset Trust may lend a trust account for a part of the total project cost in relation to 24 debt-type land trust contracts including Busan Haeundae Udong Beautique Terrace Hotel and responsible completion management land trust contracts in Gyeongseo-dong, Seo-gu, Incheon, and additional business sites in progress. The maximum loan amount (unused limit) is 113,428 million Won. Whether or not Woori Asset Trust lends a trust account in relation to the relevant businesses is not an unconditional payment obligation, and it is determined by considering overall matters such as the unique account and the fund balance plan of each trust business.

5) Pursuant to some contracts related to asset securitization, the Group utilizes various prerequisites as triggering events causing early redemption, limiting risks that investors bear due to change in asset quality. Breach of such triggering clause leads to an early redemption of the securitized bonds.

6) During the current period, there was an investigation by Fair Trade Commission regarding Loan-To-Value ratio. The Group received the review report but cannot reasonably estimate its impact on financial statements.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting for Consolidation Purposes

An entity’s internal control over financial reporting for consolidation purposes is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards (“K-IFRS”). A Group’s internal control over financial reporting for consolidation purposes includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the group; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with K-IFRS, and that receipts and expenditures of the group are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the group; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the group’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting for consolidation purposes may not prevent or detect misstatements in the consolidated financial statements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Jae-Beom Choi.
