Report on Review of Condensed Separate Interim Financial Statements
(English Translation of a Report Originally Issued in Korean)
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
KB Financial Group Inc.
Reviewed Financial Statements
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed separate interim financial statements of KB Financial Group Inc. (the "Company"). These condensed separate interim financial statements consist of the separate interim statement of financial position of the Company as at March 31, 2024, and the related separate interim statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three- month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, and material accounting policy information and other selected explanatory notes, expressed in Korean Won.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed separate interim financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the Republic of Korea ("Korean IFRS") No.1034 Interim Financial Reporting, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of condensed separate interim financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed separate interim financial statements based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with quarterly or semi-annual review standards established by the Securities and Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe the accompanying condensed separate interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with Korean IFRS 1034 Interim Financial Reporting.
1
Other Matters
We have audited the separate statement of financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2023, and the related separate statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, not presented herein, in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing. We expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements in our audit report dated March 6, 2024. The separate statement of financial position as at December 31, 2023, presented herein for comparative purposes, is consistent, in all material respects, with the above audited statement of financial position as at December 31, 2023.
Review standards and their application in practice vary among countries. The procedures and practices used in the Republic of Korea to review such financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries.
