In this meeting, Vice Chairman Han explained, “We have robots as another new growth engine, and we are moving forward step by step.”
However, he avoided direct answers about the timing of the acquisition of Rainbow Robotics, which recently raised an additional stake to raise the stake to 14.99%.
Vice Chairman Han replied, “It’s a very security issue,” and “It’s being done bit by bit.”
He said, “Although time is delayed due to the recession this year, we will achieve good results in M&A,” he said.
In particular, he said, “We are open to everything,” leaving open the possibility of other M&As other than Rainbow Robotics.
Regarding the plan to apply ChatGPT, which has been popular around the world recently, on home appliances, he said, “It’s true that everyone is using it a lot, and the trend is right.”
