Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of Korea. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards. As discussed in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Group adopted the amendment to K-IFRS No. 1001, ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ for the year ended December 31, 2012. The amendment requires operating profit, which is calculated by revenue less: 1) cost of sales, and 2) selling, general and administrative expenses, to be separately presented on the statements of comprehensive income. The Group applied this change in accounting policies retrospectively, and accordingly restated the comparative information of the statement of comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2011. Seoul, Korea March 2, 2013 This report is effective as of March 2, 2013, the audit report date. Certain subsequent events or circumstances, which may occur between the audit report date and the time of reading this report, could have a material impact on the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Accordingly, the readers of the audit report should understand that the above audit report has not been updated to reflect the impact of such subsequent events or circumstances, if any.

  • Using CSR As a Key Element for Achieving Competitive Advantage
    025-0181 Moral has no seasons: Using CSR as a key element for achieving competitive advantage. Marina Mattera Department of Economics and International Relations Universidad Europea de Madrid, C/Tajo, s/n. 28670-Villaviciosa de Odon-(Madrid) Spain POMS 23rd Annual Conference Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A. April 20 to April 23, 2011 Abstract: Firms' new challenges in the 21st century involve innovation and society's request for a more responsible business model. Based on bounded rationality conditions and the important role of externalities, it is analyzed through a case study whether corporate social responsibility strategies are essential for companies to achieve sustainable competitive advantages. Key words: Sustainable Development; Sustainable Management; Corporate Social Responsability; Open Innovation models. 1. Introduction Efforts towards generating sustainable growth and steady benefits have owned its accurate planning to the competitive advantage owned by the company. In several studies, it has been demonstrated that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) can improve a firm’s performance by enhancing the prestige and perception from consumers’ perspective (competitive advantage). However, it has also been denoted that solid inter-agents relationships are enhanced when they have consolidated CSR actions between them. New models for conducting business emerge, and together with them new difficulties. Known as “open innovation” (OI) models, the aforementioned collaborations between organizations have also gained a purely international character. This study aims to analyze those new interactions and relationships between firms, which of them succeed and the role corporate social responsibility plays in such a context. Taking into account the complex level of the existing interrelationship between agents and countries where they operate, it becomes difficult to accurately depict the company’s culture, its values, and beliefs; as shown in Figure 1.
