According to its business report, Hanwha Systems announced that in November last year, it purchased 566,635 common shares of KAI for 5.99 billion won. This represents 0.58% of KAI's total shares. Because holdings below 5% are not subject to the substantial shareholding disclosure requirement, the purchase was disclosed through the business report. Hanwha Systems stated, "The purpose of the stake acquisition is to strengthen cooperation in the aerospace and defense sectors."
