What happened

POSCO FUTURE M revised its long-term battery materials supply contract signed with Samsung SDI in 2023. The original deal covered NCA cathode materials (materials used in a battery's positive side) for EVs. The two companies agreed to switch part of that volume to LFP cathode materials. The contract value changed from KRW 40.0 trillion to KRW 21.2 trillion: KRW 15.2 trillion for NCA and KRW 6.1 trillion for LFP.

In the company's terms

The company said the combined supply volume is larger than in the original contract. The value fell because unit prices are linked to lithium prices, which are lower than when the deal was signed. The contract equals 1,068.0% of 2021 consolidated revenue of KRW 2.0 trillion, compared with 2,011.8% before the correction.

What changes for shareholders

The amount was converted at KRW 1,358.5 per USD and may change with processing costs or exchange rates. The two companies are also discussing other substitute materials and will disclose any decision. The contract runs until 2032.12.31.
