[Edaily Reporter Shin Ha-yeon ] UNISON CO., LTD. ( UNISON CO., LTD.(018000)), a company specializing in wind turbines, announced on the 5th that Samhae E&C, an affiliate of its largest shareholder, Myeongun Industrial Development, had purchased UNISON shares on the open market.

The company explained that this share purchase is intended to demonstrate a commitment to responsible management, based on confidence in UNISON CO., LTD.’s mid- to long-term growth potential. The largest shareholder plans to continue providing support not only to expand its stake but also to strengthen the company’s business competitiveness and establish a foundation for stable growth.

Samhae E&C is a company specializing in offshore wind EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) and is currently carrying out offshore construction work for the Nakwol Offshore Wind Farm. It recently successfully completed construction of the Nakwol Offshore Wind Farm and is expanding its competitiveness in the offshore wind sector, having ranked first in the civil engineering category in the 2026 Construction Capability Evaluation.

UNISON CO., LTD. is expanding its business scope to include offshore wind power, building on its experience in manufacturing onshore wind turbines and operating power generation complexes. While pursuing the development of large offshore wind turbines and establishing a production base, the company is also strengthening its operations and maintenance (O&M) capabilities to lay the groundwork for mid- to long-term growth.

Myeongun Industrial Development, the largest shareholder, expects that combining UNISON CO., LTD.’s wind turbine technology and business experience with Samhae E&C’s offshore wind construction capabilities will generate business synergies. The company plans to actively seek out new renewable energy business opportunities through future collaboration among its affiliates.

Since becoming UNISON CO., LTD.’s largest shareholder this year, Myeongun Industrial Development has acquired the 17th series of convertible bonds (CBs) and supported the fundraising for the 18th series of CBs by its strategic partner, B.Grimm. It continues to provide financial and business support, including efforts to supply UNISON CO., LTD. wind turbines to the Hanbit Offshore Wind Farm.

Samhae NC& Co., Ltd. plans to continue purchasing UNISON CO., LTD. shares on the open market following this initial acquisition. The scale and timing of additional purchases will be determined based on market conditions and other factors.

An UNISON CO., LTD. official stated, “This share purchase goes beyond a simple expansion of the stake by an affiliate of the largest shareholder; it demonstrates to the market our confidence in UNISON CO., LTD.’s growth potential and our commitment to responsible management.” The official added, “We will execute the onshore and offshore wind power projects currently underway without a hitch and translate them into tangible results to enhance our corporate value.”
