POSCO Holdings Sets March 24 Shareholder Meeting amid Weaker 2025 Earnings and Governance Changes

President's Day Sale - 70% Off

POSCO ( (PKX) ) just unveiled an announcement.

POSCO HOLDINGS INC. has called its 58th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders for March 24, 2026, in Seoul, where investors will vote on approval of the 2025 financial statements and a year-end dividend of KRW 2,500 per share, completing a KRW 10,000-per-share annual payout. The company reported weaker 2025 consolidated operating profit as rechargeable battery materials and construction businesses deteriorated, despite a partial earnings recovery in steel.

Shareholders will also consider amendments to the Articles of Incorporation that, among other changes, formally retitle outside directors as independent directors, expand rules around audit committee composition and voting, and authorize electronic shareholder meetings while abolishing a separate cumulative voting provision. POSCO highlighted about KRW 7 trillion in 2025 capex to reinforce steel competitiveness and battery-materials leadership, an active program of asset divestitures and treasury-share cancellations to lift capital efficiency, and progress on major ESG initiatives including low-carbon steelmaking projects and group-wide human rights governance.

The most recent analyst rating on (PKX) stock is a Hold with a $59.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on POSCO stock, see the PKX Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on PKX Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, PKX is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance—especially thin TTM profitability and negative free cash flow—despite a resilient balance sheet. Technicals are moderately supportive with the stock trading above key moving averages and positive MACD. Valuation is a notable headwind due to the high P/E, only partly offset by the dividend yield.
