Samsung faces performance-pay dispute as 100 trillion-won profit milestone nears

  • Samsung Electronics will disclose detailed criteria for the Device Solutions special performance bonus this week.
  • The bonus uses 10.5% of DS operating profit, with 40% distributed equally and the remainder linked to business-unit performance.
  • Roh Tae-moon will hold a Device eXperience employee town hall next month as Samsung approaches a potential 100 trillion-won quarterly profit milestone.

Samsung Electronics is preparing to disclose detailed criteria for a special performance bonus for its Device Solutions semiconductor division as tensions grow with the Device eXperience business over compensation differences. Created under a May wage agreement, the bonus allocates 10.5% of DS operating profit, with 40% shared equally and the remainder tied to business-unit performance, paid in company treasury shares without a separate cap. Roh Tae-moon, president and head of the DX division, will hold a companywide town hall next month. Preliminary third-quarter results are expected early next month, with FnGuide forecasting 199.1189 trillion won in revenue and 105.6443 trillion won in operating profit, potentially marking Samsung’s first quarterly operating profit above 100 trillion won.
