Both of such interest rates are based on the five-year Korean government bond yield plus a spread. For both series of the hybrid securities, an additional spread of 0.25% is payable beginning ten years from the date of issuance and an additional spread of 0.75% is payable after 25 years from the date of issuance. The Company classified the hybrid securities as equity, as there is no contractual obligation to deliver financial assets to the bondholders. The hybrid securities are subordinated bonds which take priority over common shares upon bankruptcy or liquidation. The maturity date of the hybrid securities is June 7, 2078, which can be extended by the Company without any notice or announcement.

[SK Broadband]
SK Broadband acquired subscribership of regional cable and other service providers on several different occasions. Such acquisitions were intended to secure a stable subscriber base for its broadband Internet service and, at the same time, increase the service coverage area. Because such acquisitions were conducted on a relatively small scale and involved the purchase of subscribership, SK Broadband did not believe that such acquisitions rose to the level of purchasing an entire business line from another company or were likely to have a material impact on its business, and therefore decided that such acquisitions did not require resolutions of its shareholders.

[Wireless Business]
A. | Industry Characteristics |
The telecommunications services market can be categorized into telecommunications services (such as fixed-line, wireless, leased line and value-added services) and broadcasting and telecommunications convergence services. Pursuant to the Telecommunications Business Act, the telecommunications services market can be further classified into basic telecommunications (fixed-line and wireless telecommunications), special category telecommunications (resale of telecommunications equipment, facilities and services) and value-added telecommunications (internet connection and management, media contents and others). The size of the domestic telecommunications services market is determined based on various factors specific to Korea, including size of population that uses telecommunication services and telecommunications expenditures per capita. While it is possible for Korean telecommunication service providers to provide services abroad through acquisitions or otherwise, foreign telecommunication services markets have their own characteristics depending, among others, on the regulatory environment and demand for telecommunication services.
The Korean mobile communication market is considered to have reached its maturation stage with more than a 100% penetration rate. However, the Korean mobile communications market continues to improve in the quality of services with the help of advances in network-related technology and the development of highly advanced LTE-A, LTE and 3G smartphones which enable the provision of convergence services for multimedia contents, mobile commerce, telematics, new media and other related services. In addition, through the commercialization of LTE network in July 2011 and LTE-A network in June 2013, B2B businesses, such as the corporate connected workforce business which can directly contribute to an enhancement in productivity, are expected to grow rapidly.
In the first half of 2014, wideband LTE-A service was commercialized and on December 29, 2014, tri-band LTE-A service with a maximum speed of 300 Mbps was also commercialized. Since June 2017, through the commercialization of 5band CA technology, which is considered the final stage of LTE development, the Company has provided 4.5G service at the speed of 700Mbps to 900Mbps. Since early 2018, the Company was the first to start providing LTE service with a speed of up to 1 Gbps. Such achievements were the building blocks towards the Companys LTE penetration reaching 78.1% as of June 30, 2018.

The Korean mobile communication market includes the entire population of Korea with mobile communication service needs, and almost every Korean is considered a potential user. Sales revenue related to data services is expected to increase due to the increasing popularity of smartphones and high-speed wireless networks. There is also a growing importance to the business-to-business segment, which creates added value by selling and developing various solutions. Seasonal and economic fluctuations have much less impact on the Korean mobile communication market compared to other industries.

D. | Business Overview and Competitive Strengths |
The Company is seeking to transform itself from a telecommunications service provider into a comprehensive ICT service provider. It has continued to innovate the scope of its services and achieved strong growth in subscribers amid fierce competition and rate cuts. As a result, for the second quarter of 2018, the Company recorded Won 4,154 billion in revenue and Won 347 billion in operating income on a consolidated basis and Won 2,942 billion in revenue and Won 368 billion in operating income on a separate basis. In particular, the number of subscribers subscribing to Band Data plans, which was launched in the second quarter of 2015, has continued to steadily increase in 2017, which in turn led to an increase in data usage. The success of Luna, a smartphone launched in September 2015 that was designed to run exclusively on the Companys networks, led to the launch of various other relatively low-priced devices and became an example of successfully targeting a niche market.
By continuing to be innovative in developing core competencies, the Company has more firmly established its position as the market leader in wireless telecommunications. The competitive environment of the wireless telecommunications industry has become more focused on retention especially through the reinforcement of marketing that is focused on innovation in increasing customer value. In the second quarter of 2018, the average monthly churn rate was 1.2%. The number of subscribers (including MVNO subscribers) as of June 30, 2018 was 30.7 million, an increase of approximately 520,000 since December 31, 2017. In particular, the number of LTE subscribers as of June 30, 2018, was 24.0 million, an increase of approximately 1,120,000 since December 31, 2017, solidifying the Companys market leadership. In addition, the Company continued to sell products targeted towards second devices such as the Cookiz Phone, T Outdoor and T Pocket-fi, which the Company believes shows a level of demand that can potentially lead to growth of the lifestyle enhancement platform.
Following the launch of commercial LTE services in July 2011, the Company became the first telecommunications service provider in the world to launch commercial wideband LTE-A services in June 2014. The Company launched tri-band LTE-A services in December 2014 and 5band 4.5G services in June 2017. In the first quarter of 2018, the Company commenced providing LTE service of up to 1 Gbps by utilizing five-band carrier aggregation technology and 4T4R technology. By launching various high quality services utilizing the LTE-A and wideband LTE networks such as group video conference call services and full high definition mobile IPTV streaming services, the Company plans to provide an innovative user experience, enhance customer satisfaction and increase profitability.
The Company has proved that it has superior network quality compared to its competitors according to the Korea Communications Commission quality evaluations. The Company has also proved to be the leader in Koreas top three customer satisfaction indices: according to the National Customer Satisfaction Index, Korean Customer Satisfaction Index and Korean Standard Service Quality Index, the Company has continued to hold the leading position for 21 years, 20 years and 18 years, respectively. The Company received the highest level of evaluation in 2017 by the Korea Commission for Corporate Partnership for the sixth consecutive year and was selected for the commissions Honored Corporation Award, demonstrating the Companys efforts to be fair and law-abiding in its path towards creating a New ICT ecosystem.
SK Telink, a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, expanded its operations to the MVNO business based on its technical expertise and know-how obtained in its international telecommunications business and launched its MVNO service, SK 7Mobile, which is offered at reasonable rates and provides excellent quality. SK Telink is increasing its efforts to develop low-cost distribution channels and create niche markets through targeted marketing towards customers including foreign workers, middle-aged adults and students. An MVNO leases the networks of an MNO and provides wireless telecommunication services under its own brand and fee structure, without owning telecommunication networks or frequencies.
Network O&S, a subsidiary of the Company responsible for the operation of the Companys base stations and related transmission and power facilities, offers quality fixed-line and wireless network services to customers, including mobile office products to business customers.
PS&Marketing, a subsidiary of the Company, provides a sales platform for products of the Company and SK Broadband including fixed-line and wireless telecommunication products that address customers needs for various convergence products. PS&Marketing provides differentiated service to clients through the establishment of new sales channels and product development.

[Fixed-line Business]
A. | Industry Characteristics |
The Korean fixed-line services industry is marked by a relatively low level of economic sensitivity and high level of market concentration, as the government is highly selective in granting telecommunications business licenses. The competitive landscape of the fixed-line and wireless services markets is dominated by its three leading operators, the Company (including SK Broadband), KT and LG U+. Growing competition within the industry has promoted rapid technological evolution, including the convergence of fixed-line and wireless services, as well as broadcasting and telecommunications. In general, the fixed-line and wireless services markets have been characterized by relatively high profitability, cash flows and financial stability.
In the backdrop of increasing regulation in the fixed-line industry, competition to provide Giga services has intensified and the growth of high-speed internet subscribers has slowed. It is currently expected that the rate of increase of IPTV subscribers will decrease, among others, due to the conversion to digital broadcasting. In order to differentiate itself from its competitors, the Company believes that it will need to provide customers with high quality media content on its IPTV platform. Additionally, the Company expects increased demand for ultra-high definition broadcasting. Such changing trends of broadcasting consumption present opportunities to incorporate the Companys IoT, cloud and big data technologies into the Companys home platform business to achieve new growth. The Company plans to increase its subscriber base by providing differentiated services and focusing on marketing strategies centered around high value services such as Giga services and ultra-high definition broadcasting services.

C. | Cyclical Nature and Seasonality |
High-speed Internet, fixed-line telephone and IPTV services are mature markets that are comparatively less sensitive to cyclical economic changes as such services have become more of a necessity and the market has matured. The telecommunications services market overall is not expected to be particularly affected by economic downturns due to the low income elasticity of demand for telecommunication services.

E. | Business Overview and Competitive Strengths |
For the second quarter of 2018, the Company recorded Won 781.6 billion in revenue, Won 30.4 billion in operating income and Won 8.5 billion in profit for the period for its fixed-line business on a consolidated basis. The Companys revenue grew compared to the previous quarter and the same quarter of the previous year, driven by an increase in revenue from IPTV services due to a growth in the number of subscribers and an increase in platform revenue. The number of subscribers to each of its high-speed Internet, residential fixed-line telephones, VoIP services and IPTV services was 5.52 million, 2.32 million, 1.69 million and 4.55 million, respectively (resulting in the total number of telephone subscribers being 4.01 million subscribers). In addition, SK Broadband was awarded first place for eight consecutive years, including in 2018, in the survey by the National Customer Satisfaction Index for its high-speed internet and IPTV services. This is the result of its continuous efforts to deliver new value to its customers through innovation.
In the case of high-speed Internet, the Company has continued to increase the proportion of subscribers of premium services, including its Giga Internet service, by strengthening its marketing efforts based on quality and customer value improvements. With the launch of its 2.5 Giga Internet service, the Company enhanced customer satisfaction levels as well as service value through services of various speeds. The Company was also able to provide enhanced customer experience and strengthen its brand image through the launch of products that meet customers needs, such as Giga+Wifi packaged products.
With continued increase in the number of subscribers and growth in platform revenue, such as transmission fees, the Companys IPTV service business continued its steady growth, with revenue for the second quarter of 2018 increasing by more than 20% compared to the second quarter of 2017. In addition, the Companys IPTV service has continued to improve its competitiveness through its further offerings of differentiated contents and services, such as AI STB with a voice recognition function, new monthly fixed-fee products that meet customers needs, expanded childrens contents and the launch of two-way childrens services.
The number of Oksusu users has increased due to a boost in its marketing centered on sports programs, such as professional baseball and the World Cup. Oksusu has also reinforced the competitiveness of its contents by producing differentiated original contents. SK Stoa improved its broadcast quality through the opening of a media center and internalization of its broadcast production capabilities, and continued its revenue growth by strengthening mobile sales and expanding direct-purchase products.
SK Telink, a provider of international telecommunications service, has been able to establish itself as a market leader as a result of its affordable pricing, proactive marketing and the quality of its services. It launched a mobile phone-based international calling service under the brand name 00700 in 1998, creating a new niche market within the long-distance telephony market that was otherwise dominated by existing service providers. In 2003, SK Telink was designated a common carrier for international calling services, which allowed the Company to expand its international calling services to fixed-line international calling services. In 2005, SK Telink obtained a license to operate VoIP services and local calling value-added services to develop into a versatile fixed-line telecommunications service provider. SK Telink plans to strategically target the convergence of wireless and fixed-line telecommunications and strengthen its existing business as a comprehensive ICT service provider, including international satellite calling services (internet, wireless and fixed-line calling services on ships, aircraft and in polar regions), and video conference call services while aiming to satisfy the diverse needs of customers by providing quality solutions at reasonable prices.
[Other Business]
A. | Industry Characteristics |
As the number of smartphones distributed in Korea exceeds 40 million, the growth in various mobile devices has spurred the rise of the service provider with a strong platform business as the leader in the ICT market. It is becoming increasingly important to enhance competitiveness by building a platform with large data capacity to handle the increase in data transmission.
26
A platform business acts as an intermediary by promoting interactions among various customer groups, thereby generating new values. It is important for a platform business to continually attract subscribers and users and to create an ecosystem with certain lock-in effects. A platform can exist in various forms, including as a technological standard (iOS, Android OS), a subscriber-based service platform (Facebook, Twitter) or a marketplace (Amazon, Onestore). Platform businesses are evolving and expanding globally.
A platform business has strong growth potential due to its connectivity with related services and ease of global expansion. Apple became a world-leading smartphone producer based on its innovative design and the competitive strength of its App Store platform. Google has created a new ecosystem of long-tail advertising by attracting millions of third parties to its advertising platform, as well as showing strong growth in mobile markets with its competitive platform based on Android OS. It is becoming increasingly important to enhance competitiveness through a database that can register and analyze purchase patterns of customers across all areas and a platform with large data capacity with which to utilize this database and provide differentiated services to customers.
B. | Growth Potential |
The scope and value generated by the platform business, including application and content marketplaces and N-screen services, continue to increase as smartphones and tablet computers become more popular and the bandwidth and speed of network infrastructure improve. As the wireless network evolves to LTE, business opportunities for the platform business exist, including multimedia streaming, N-screen service based on cloud technology and high-definition location-based services. Since the platform business realizes profit by connecting with advertisements or commerce sites after building a critical mass of subscribers and traffic, the recent growth in the advertising and commerce markets is expected to present an opportunity for platform businesses. The importance of building a platform with large data capacity that is connected to various digital contents and commerce is expected to increase in the future.
C. | Domestic and Overseas Market Conditions |
(1) | Commerce markets |
The Company expects that online/mobile commerce markets will continue to grow due to the growth potential of the Internet shopping population, the strengthening of online business models by off-line operators, and the rapid rise of mobile commerce. Recently, due to the widespread use of smartphones and social media, the commercialization of location-based services and the development of big data technology, online to offline (or, O2O) business, which is a concept of attracting customers to offline stores using online and mobile environments, is being highlighted as a new field in the online commerce market industry as new business models continue to emerge.
(2) | Digital contents |
The growth of application marketplaces, which started with Apples App Store, provides the platform business with new opportunities for revenue generation. The competitive paradigm is shifting from a competition among platform operators toward a competition among eco-systems that include application developers as well as platform operators.
D. | Business Overview and Competitive Strengths |
The Company plans to expand its platform ecosystem in operating its commerce business which includes marketplace and O2O businesses, such as 11st, Syrup and OK Cashbag, thereby ultimately increasing its enterprise value.

(3) | Policies for Allowance for Doubtful Accounts |
The Company establishes allowances for doubtful accounts based on the likelihood of recoverability of trade and other receivables based on their aging at the end of the period and past customer default experience for the past two years. With respect to trade receivables relating to wireless telecommunications services, the Company considers the likelihood of recovery based on past customer default experience and the length of default in connection with the type of default (e.g., whether the customers service has been terminated or is continued). For such trade receivables that have been overdue for more than two years after the customers service has been terminated, the Company records an allowance of 100% of such receivables. For such trade receivables that have been overdue for less than two years after the customers service has been terminated or relates to a customer that is continuing his service, the Company records an allowance of a certain percentage of such receivable. Consistent with customary practice, the Company writes off trade and other receivables for which the prescription period has passed or that are determined to be impossible or economically too costly to collect, including receivables that are less than Won 200,000 and more than six months overdue and receivables that have been determined to be the subject of identity theft.

Independent Auditors Review Report
Based on a report originally issued in Korean
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
SK Telecom Co., Ltd.:
Reviewed financial statements
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed separate interim financial statements of SK Telecom Co., Ltd. (the Company), which comprise the condensed separate statement of financial position as of June 30, 2018, the condensed separate statements of income, and comprehensive income for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the condensed separate statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Managements responsibility
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these condensed separate interim financial statements in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards (K-IFRS) No. 1034, Interim Financial Reporting, and for such internal controls as management determines necessary to enable the preparation of condensed separate interim financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors responsibility
Our responsibility is to issue a report on these condensed separate interim financial statements based on our reviews.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the Review Standards for Quarterly and Semiannual Financial Statements established by the Securities and Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. A review of interim financial statements consists principally 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 reviews, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed separate interim financial statements referred to above are not prepared fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with K-IFRS No. 1034, Interim Financial Reporting.
Emphasis of matter
As a matter that does not have an impact on our review conclusion, we draw the attention of the users of the above-mentioned financial statements of the Company to the matter described in Note 3 to the condensed separate financial statements. The Company has initially adopted K-IFRS Nos. 1109 and 1115 for the year beginning on January 1, 2018, and the Company has taken an exemption not to restate the condensed separate financial statements as of December 31, 2017 or for the three or six-month period ended June 30, 2017, presented for comparative purposes, in accordance with transition requirements of the standards. The financial impacts of applying K-IFRS Nos. 1109 and 1115 are discussed in Note 3.
1
Other matters
The separate statement of financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017, and the related separate statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, which are not accompanying this report, were audited by us in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing and our report thereon, dated February 23, 2018, expressed an unqualified opinion. The accompanying condensed separate statement of financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017, presented for comparative purposes, is consistent, in all material respects, with the audited separate financial statements from which it has been derived.
The procedures and practices utilized in the Republic of Korea to review such condensed separate interim financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries.
KPMG Samjong Accounting Corp.
Seoul, Korea
August 13, 2018
This report is effective as of August 13, 2018, the review report date. Certain subsequent events or circumstances, which may occur between the review report date and the time of reading this report, could have a material impact on the accompanying condensed separate interim financial statements and notes thereto. Accordingly, the readers of the review report should understand that the above review report has not been updated to reflect the impact of such subsequent events or circumstances, if any.

2. | Basis of Preparation |
(1) | Statement of compliance |
These condensed separate interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with K-IFRS No. 1034, Interim Financial Reporting, as part of the period covered by the Companys K-IFRS annual financial statements. Selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of the Company since December 31, 2017. These condensed separate interim financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required for full annual financial statements.
These condensed interim financial statements are separate interim financial statements prepared in accordance with K-IFRS No.1027, Separate Financial Statements, presented by a parent, an investor with joint control of, or significant influence over, an investee, in which the investments are accounted for at cost.
(2) | Use of estimates and judgments |
1) Critical judgments, assumptions and estimation uncertainties
The preparation of the condensed separate interim financial statements in conformity with K-IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these condensed separate interim financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Companys accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 except significant judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty related to the K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from contracts with customers, and K-IFRS No. 1109, Financial Instruments, that are described in Note 3.

2. | Basis of Preparation, Continued |
(2) | Use of estimates and judgments, Continued |
2) Fair value measurement
A number of the Companys accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. The Company has an established policies and processes with respect to the measurement of fair values. This includes a valuation team that has overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements, including Level 3 fair values, and reports directly to the finance executives.
The valuation team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information, such as broker quotes or pricing services, are used to measure fair values, then the valuation team assesses the evidence obtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that such valuations meet the requirements of K-IFRS, including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which such valuations should be classified.
When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
| Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
| Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and |
| Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). |
If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.
Information about assumptions used for fair value measurements are included in Note 28.

3. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The significant accounting policies applied by the Company in these condensed separate interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Company in its separate financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, except for the following changes in accounting policies described below. The following changes in accounting policies are also expected to be reflected in the Companys separate financial statements as at and for the year ending December 31, 2018.
(1) Changes in accounting policies
The Company has initially adopted K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and K-IFRS No. 1109, Financial Instruments, from January 1, 2018. A number of other amendments to standards are effective from January 1, 2018, but they do not have a material effect on the Companys condensed separate interim financial statements.
1) K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from Contracts with Customers
K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. K-IFRS No. 1115 replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including K-IFRS No. 1018, Revenue, K-IFRS No. 1011, Construction Contracts, K-IFRS No. 2031, Revenue: Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services, K-IFRS No. 2113, Customer Loyalty Programs, K-IFRS No. 2115, Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, and K-IFRS No. 2118, Transfers of Assets from Customers.
The Company has initially applied K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, from January 1, 2018 using the cumulative effect method with the effect of initially applying this standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as at January 1, 2018. The Company applied K-IFRS No. 1115 retrospectively only to contracts that are not completed contracts at the date of initial application, which is January 1, 2018 using the practical expedient permitted by K-IFRS No.1115.
i) Identification of performance obligations in the contract
A substantial portion of the Companys revenue is generated from providing wireless telecommunications services. K-IFRS No. 1115 requires the Company to evaluate goods or services promised to customers to determine if there are performance obligations other than wireless telecommunications service that should be accounted for separately. In the case that the Company provides a wireless telecommunications service and sells a handset together to one customer, the Company allocates considerations from the customer between handset sale revenue and wireless telecommunications service revenue. The handset sales revenue is recognized when handset is delivered and the wireless telecommunications service revenue is recognized as revenue over the period of the contract term as stated in the subscription contract.
ii) Allocation of the transaction price to performance obligations
Under K-IFRS No. 1115, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation identified in a contract on a relative stand-alone selling price basis. The Company uses adjusted market assessment approach method for estimating the stand-alone selling price of a good or service.
In the case of providing both wireless telecommunication services and mobile devices for sale, the Company allocates the transaction price based on relative stand-alone selling prices.

(1) | Changes in accounting policies, Continued |
1) K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Continued
iii) Incremental costs to acquire a contract
The Company pays commissions to its direct retail stores and authorized dealers in connection with acquiring service contracts. The commissions
paid to these parties historically constituted a significant portion of the Companys operating expenses. These commissions would not have been paid if there have been no binding contracts with subscribers. K-IFRS No. 1115 requires the
Company to capitalize certain costs associated with commissions paid to obtain new customer contracts and amortize them over the expected contract periods with customers. As a result of applying K-IFRS
No. 1115, the Company recognized 2,356,136 million of prepaid expenses as at January 1, 2018. W
iv) Contract liability
Upon
adoption of K-IFRS No. 1115, the Company reclassified the receipts in advance and unearned revenue amounting to 44,045 million that are related to prepaid rate
plans and customer loyalty program, respectively, to contract liabilities as at January 1, 2018. W
v) Impact of adopting K-IFRS No. 1115 on the condensed separate interim financial statements
If K-IFRS No. 1018 were applied on the Companys condensed separate statement of financial position as of June 30, 2018, prepaid expenses and long-term prepaid expenses would be decreased by
1,683,133 million and W640,838 million, respectively, and contract assets and long-term contract assets each would be decreased by
W1,280 million and WW5,013 million, respectively, while deferred tax assets would be increased by 58,819 million. As a result, total assets would be
decreased by W2,271,445 million. In addition, contract liabilities, long-term contract liabilities and deferred tax liabilities would be decreased by W50,723 million,
W7,758 million and W566,360 million, respectively, while other liabilities such as receipts in advance and unearned revenue would be increased by
W58,481 million. As a result, total liabilities would be decreased by W566,360 million. In relation to these changes in assets and liabilities, retained earnings would be
decreased by W1,705,085 million. W
If K-IFRS No. 1018
were applied on the Companys condensed separate statement of income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, revenues would be increased by
2,486 million, while commissions would be decreased by W23,385 million. Operating profit and profit before income tax would be increased by
W25,871 million. As a result, profit for the period would be increased by WW18,900 million with increase in income tax expense of 6,971 million. W
When compared to K-IFRS No. 1018, the adoption of K-IFRS No. 1115 did not have material impact on the Companys condensed separate statement of cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018.

2) K-IFRS No. 1109, Financial Instruments
K-IFRS No. 1109 set out requirements for recognizing and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some contracts to buy or sell non-financial items. This standard replaces K-IFRS No. 1039, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The Company adopted K-IFRS No. 1109, Financial Instruments, from January 1, 2018, and the Company has taken an exemption not to restate the financial statements for prior years with respects to transition requirements.
The following table explains the impact of transition to K-IFRS No. 1109 on the opening balance of reserves and retained earnings as at January 1, 2018.

i) Classification of financial assets and financial liabilities
K-IFRS No. 1109 largely retains the existing requirements in K-IFRS No. 1039 for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities. However, it eliminates the previous K-IFRS No. 1039 categories for financial assets of held to maturity, available for sale, loans, and receivables.
Under K-IFRS No. 1109, on initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at: amortized cost; FVOCI-debt investment; FVOCI-equity investment; or FVTPL. The classification of financial assets under K-IFRS No. 1109 is generally based on the business model in which a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics. If a contract contains embedded derivatives and the host is an asset within the scope of K-IFRS No. 1109, then such embedded derivatives are not separated.
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
| it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flow; and |
| its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. |

i) Classification of financial assets and financial liabilities, Continued
A debt investment is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
| it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and |
| its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. |
On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investments fair value in other comprehensive income (OCI). This election is made on an investment-by-investment basis.
All financial assets not classified as measured at amortized cost or FVOCI as described above are measured at FVTPL. These include all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortized cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.
A financial asset (unless it is an account receivable - trade without a significant financing component that is initially measured at the transaction price) is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition.
The following accounting polices apply to the subsequent measurement of financial assets.
Financial assets at FVTPL | These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss. | |
Financial assets at amortized cost | These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss. | |
Debt investments at FVOCI | These assets are subsequently measured at fair value.

ii) Impairment of financial assets
K-IFRS No. 1109 sets out a new expected credit loss (ECL) impairment model which replaces the incurred loss model under K-IFRS No. 1039 for recognizing and measuring impairment. The new impairment model applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, contract assets and debt investments at FVOCI, but not to investments in equity instruments. Under K-IFRS No. 1109, credit losses are recognized earlier than under K-IFRS No. 1039.
ECL is a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all expected cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the entity in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Company expects to receive).

2) K-IFRS No. 1109, Financial Instruments, Continued
ii) Impairment of financial assets, Continued
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. As a result of applying K-IFRS No. 1109, as of January 1, 2018, the Company recognized the impairment loss on debt instruments at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses.
Loss allowance on financial assets measured at amortized cost is deducted from the carrying amount of the respective assets, while loss allowance on debt instruments at FVOCI is recognized in OCI, instead of reducing the carrying amount of the assets.
iii) Hedge accounting
When initially applying K-IFRS No. 1109, the Company elected as its accounting policy to apply hedge accounting requirements under K-IFRS No. 1109. The Company designates derivatives such as currency swaps as hedging instruments to hedge the risk of variability in cash flows associated with the foreign currency debentures and borrowings. As the Companys hedging instruments as of January 1, 2018 satisfy the hedge requirements of retrospective testing (80~125%) under K-IFRS No. 1039, there is no material effect of applying K-IFRS No. 1109.

4. | Trade and Other Receivables, Continued |
(3) | The Company applies the simplified approach that allows the Company to estimate the loss allowance for accounts receivables - trade at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses. The expected credit losses include the forward-looking information. To make that assessment, the Company used its historical credit loss experience and classified the accounts receivable - trade by their credit risk characteristics and days overdue. |
As the Company is a wireless telecommunications service provider, the Companys financial assets measured at amortized cost consist primarily of receivables from individual customers, and, therefore, no significant credit concentration risk arises.
5. | Prepaid expenses |
As discussed in Note 3, the Company adopted K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, during the year beginning on January 1, 2018.

The Company pays commissions to its direct retail stores and authorized dealers for wireless telecommunications services for each service contract and installation contract secured. The Company capitalized certain costs associated with commissions paid to sales agents to obtain new customer contracts as prepaid expenses, which the Company previously expensed. These prepaid expenses are amortized over the periods that the Company expects to maintain its customers.

The Company participated in the frequency license allocation auction hosted by Ministry of Science and
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and was selected for the 3.5GHz and 28GHz license allocation during the six-month period ended June 30, 2018. The considerations payable for the bands of
frequency are W1,218,500 million and W207,300 million, respectively. These bands of frequency are to be allocated in December 2018 as the Company pays the initial lump sum during November 2018, and then
the annual payments in installment of the remaining balance will be made for the next ten and five years, respectively. The Company will recognize these frequency licenses at the initial lump sum as intangible assets and will amortize when the bands
of frequency are in the condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

(1) | Financial risk management |
The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. Market risk is the risk related to the changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The Company implements a risk management system to monitor and manage these specific risks.
The Companys financial assets consist of cash and cash equivalents, financial instruments, investment securities, and accounts receivable - trade and other. Financial liabilities consist of accounts payable other, borrowings, and debentures.
1) Market risk
(i) Currency risk
The Company is exposed to currency risk mainly on exchange fluctuations on forecasted transactions and recognized assets and liabilities which are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies as of June 30, 2018 are as follows:

(ii) Interest rate risk
The interest rate risk of the Company arises from borrowings and debentures. Since the Companys interest bearing assets are mostly fixed-interest bearing assets, the Companys revenue and operating cash flows are not influenced by the changes in market interest rates.
The Company performs various analysis of interest rate risk to reduce interest rate risk and to optimize its financing. To minimize risks arising from changes in interest rates, the Company takes various measures such as refinancing, renewal, alternative financing and hedging.
As of June 30, 2018, floating-rate debentures amount to 336,510 million, and the Company has
entered into interest rate swaps to hedge interest rate risk related to floating-rate debentures. Therefore, income before income taxes for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 would not have been
affected by the changes in interest rates of floating-rate borrowings and debentures. W
2) Credit risk
The maximum credit exposure as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are as follows:

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. To manage credit risk, the Company evaluates the credit worthiness of each customer or counterparty considering the partys financial information, its own trading records and other factors. Based on such information, the Company establishes credit limits for each customer or counterparty.
The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts on its estimated losses in respect of trade and other receivables. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures and a collective loss component established for groups of similar assets in respect of losses that have been expected to occur. The collective loss allowance is determined based on historical data of payment statistics for similar financial assets. Also, the Companys credit risk can arise from transactions with financial institutions related to its cash and cash equivalents, financial instruments and derivatives. To minimize such risk, the Company has a policy to deal only with financial institutions with high credit ratings. The amount of maximum exposure to credit risk of the Company is the carrying amount of financial assets as of June 30, 2018.

The above information does not include fair values of financial liabilities of which fair values have not been measured as carrying amounts are reasonable approximation of fair values.
Available-for-sale financial assets amounting to
135,344 million as of December 31, 2017 are measured at cost in accordance with K-IFRS 1039 since they are equity instruments which do not have quoted price in an
active market for the identical instruments and for which fair value cannot be reliably measured using other valuation methods. W
Fair value of the financial instruments classified as financial assets at FVOCI that are traded in an active market is measured based on the bid price at the end of the reporting date.
The Company uses various valuation methods for determination of fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market. Derivative financial contracts and long-term liabilities are measured using the discounted present value methods. Other financial assets are determined using the methods such as discounted cash flow and market approach. Inputs used to such valuation methods include swap rate, interest rate, and risk premium, and the Company performs valuation using the inputs which are consistent with natures of assets and liabilities measured.

(Unaudited)
June 30, 2018 and 2017
(With Independent Auditors Review Report Thereon)
Independent Auditors Review Report
Based on a report originally issued in Korean
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
SK Telecom Co., Ltd.:
Reviewed financial statements
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements of SK Telecom Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprise the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of June 30, 2018, the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Managements responsibility
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards (K-IFRS) No.1034, Interim Financial Reporting, and for such internal controls as management determines necessary to enable the preparation of condensed consolidated interim financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors responsibility
Our responsibility is to issue a report on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements based on our reviews.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the Review Standards for Quarterly and Semiannual Financial Statements established by the Securities and Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. A review of interim financial statements consists principally 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 reviews, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements referred to above are not prepared fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with K-IFRS No.1034, Interim Financial Reporting.
Emphasis of matter
As a matter that does not have an impact on our review conclusion, we draw the attention of the users of the above-mentioned financial statements of the Group to the matter described in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Group has initially adopted K-IFRS Nos. 1109 and 1115 for the year beginning on January 1, 2018, and the Group has taken an exemption not to restate the condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017 or for the three or six-month period ended June 30, 2017, presented for comparative purposes, in accordance with transition requirements of the standards. The financial impacts of applying K-IFRS Nos. 1109 and 1115 are discussed in Note 3.
1
Other matters
The consolidated statement of financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, which are not accompanying this report, were audited by us in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing and our report thereon, dated February 23, 2018, expressed an unqualified opinion. The accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2017, presented for comparative purposes, is consistent, in all material respects, with the audited consolidated financial statements from which it has been derived.
The procedures and practices utilized in the Republic of Korea to review such condensed consolidated interim financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries.
KPMG Samjong Accounting Corp.
Seoul, Korea
August 13, 2018
This report is effective as of August 13, 2018, the review report date. Certain subsequent events or circumstances, which may occur between the review report date and the time of reading this report, could have a material impact on the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereto. Accordingly, the readers of the review report should understand that the above review report has not been updated to reflect the impact of such subsequent events or circumstances, if any. |

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
2. | Basis of Preparation, Continued |
(2) | Use of estimates and judgments |
1) Critical judgments, assumptions and estimation uncertainties
The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with K-IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Groups accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 except significant judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty related to the K-IFRS Nos. 1115 and 1109 that are described in Note 3.
2) Fair value measurement
A number of the Groups accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. The Group has established policies and processes with respect to the measurement of fair values. This includes a valuation team that has overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements, including Level 3 fair values, and reports directly to the finance executives.
The valuation team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information, such as broker quotes or pricing services, are used to measure fair values, then the valuation team assesses the evidence obtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that such valuations meet the requirements of K-IFRS, including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which such valuations should be classified.
When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
✓ | Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
✓ | Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and |
✓ | Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). |
If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. The Group recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.
Information about assumptions used for fair value measurements are included in Note 31.

3. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The significant accounting policies applied by the Group in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, except for the following changes in accounting policies described below. The following changes in accounting policies are also expected to be reflected in the Group consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ending December 31, 2018.
(1) | Changes in accounting policies |
The Group has initially adopted K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and K-IFRS No. 1109, Financial Instruments, from January 1, 2018. A number of other amended standards are effective from January 1, 2018 but they do not have a material effect on the Groups condensed consolidated financial statements.
1) | K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from Contracts with Customers |
K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from contracts with customers, establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. K-IFRS No. 1115 replaced the revenue recognition guidance, including K-IFRS No. 1018, Revenue, K-IFRS No. 1011, Construction Contracts, K-IFRS No. 2031, Revenue: Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services, K-IFRS No. 2113, Customer Loyalty Programs, K-IFRS No. 2115, Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, and K-IFRS No. 2118, Transfers of Assets from Customers.
The Group has adopted K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from contracts with customers, from January 1, 2018 using the cumulative effect method with the effect of initially applying this standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as at January 1, 2018. The Group applied K-IFRS No. 1115 retrospectively only to contracts that are not completed contracts at the date of initial application, which is January 1, 2018 using the practical expedient permitted by K-IFRS No.1115.
i) Identification of performance obligations in the contract
A substantial portion of the Groups revenue is generated from providing wireless telecommunications services. K-IFRS No. 1115 requires the Group to evaluate goods or services promised to customers to determine if there are performance obligations other than wireless telecommunications service that should be accounted for separately. In the case that the Group provides a wireless telecommunications service and sells a handset together to one customer, the Group allocates considerations from the customer between handset sale revenue and wireless telecommunications service revenue. The handset sales revenue is recognized when handset is delivered and the wireless telecommunications service revenue is recognized as revenue over the period of the contract term as stated in the subscription contract.
The Group also determined that the installation services provided with the fixed-line telecommunication services are not distinguishable
performance obligations from the related fixed-line telecommunication services such as high speed broadband Internet or IPTV services. Therefore, the Group included the installation fee in the fixed-line telecommunication service revenue. The
installation fee will be recognized as revenue over the contract term in which the Group has to provide fixed-line telecommunication services. The Group recognized 23,063 million as contract liability on the
consolidated statement of financial position as of January 1, 2018 due to such change in the accounting policies. W

3. | Significant Accounting Policies, Continued |
(1) | Changes in accounting policies, Continued |
1) K-IFRS No. 1115, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Continued
ii) Allocate the transaction price to each performance obligations
In accordance with K-IFRS No. 1115, the Group allocates the considerations from contracts to each performance obligation in a contract in proportion to their stand-alone selling prices when the Group provides a wireless telecommunications service and sells a handset together to one customer. The Group used adjusted market assessment method for estimating the stand-alone selling price. However, in some circumstances, the Group used expected cost plus a margin approach.
As a result of applying K-IFRS No. 1115, the Group recognized
142,596 million of considerations allocated to handset sale revenue as contract assets at January 1, 2018. W
iii) Incremental costs to acquire a contract
The Group pays commissions to its direct retail stores and authorized dealers in connection with acquiring service contracts. The commissions
paid to these parties historically constituted a significant portion of the Groups operating expenses. These commissions would not have been paid if there have been no binding contracts with subscribers. K-IFRS No. 1115 requires the Group
to capitalize certain costs associated with commissions paid to obtain new customer contracts and amortize them over the expected contract periods with customers. As a result of applying K-IFRS No. 1115,
the Group recognized 2,389,097 million of prepaid expenses as at January 1, 2018. W
iv) Contract liability
Under K-IFRS No. 1115, the Group reclassified the receipts in advance and
unearned revenue amounting to 109,555 million that are related to prepaid rate plans and customer loyalty program, respectively, to contract liabilities as at January 1, 2018. W
v) Impact of adopting K-IFRS No. 1115 on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements
If K-IFRS No. 1018 were applied on the Groups condensed consolidated statement of
financial position as of June 30, 2018, prepaid expenses and long-term prepaid expenses would be decreased by 1,658,170 million and W708,413 million, respectively,
and contract assets and long-term contract assets each would be decreased by W92,183 million and W35,232 million, respectively, while accounts receivable - trade would be
increased by W4,072 million. As a result, total assets would be decreased by W2,489,926 million. In addition, contract liabilities, long-term contract liabilities and
deferred tax liabilities would be decreased by W113,841 million, W20,104 million and W589,189 million, respectively, while other
liabilities such as receipts in advance and unearned revenue would be increased by W108,421 million. As a result, total liabilities would be decreased by W614,713 million.
In relation to these changes in assets and liabilities, retained earnings would be decreased by W1,875,213 million. W

v) Impact of adopting K-IFRS No. 1115 on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements, Continued
If K-IFRS No. 1018 were applied on the
Groups condensed consolidated statement of income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, revenues and advertising would be increased by 56,730 million
and W26,306 million, respectively, while commission expenses would be decreased by W9,702 million. Operating profit and profit before income tax would be increased by
W39,791 million with increase in operating expenses by W16,939 million. As a result, profit for the period would be increased by
W24,807 million with increase in income tax expense of W14,984 million. W
When compared to K-IFRS No. 1018, the adoption of K-IFRS No. 1115 did not have material impact on the Groups condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018.
2) K-IFRS No. 1109, Financial Instruments
K-IFRS No. 1109 sets out requirements for recognizing and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some contracts to buy or sell non-financial items. This standards replaces K-IFRS No. 1039, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The Group adopted K-IFRS No. 1109, Financial Instruments, from January 1, 2018, and the Group has taken an exemption not to restate the financial statements for prior years with respects to transition requirements.
The following table explains the impact of transition to K-IFRS No. 1109 on the opening balance of reserves and retained earnings as at January 1, 2018.

i) Classification of financial assets and financial liabilities
K-IFRS No. 1109 largely retains the existing requirements in K-IFRS No. 1039 for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities. However, it eliminates the previous K-IFRS No. 1039 categories for financial assets of held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, and loans and receivables.
Under K-IFRS No. 1109, on initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at: amortized cost; FVOCI-debt investment; FVOCI-equity investment; or FVTPL. The classification of financial assets under K-IFRS No. 1109 is generally based on the business model in which a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics. If a contract contains embedded derivatives and the host is an asset within the scope of K-IFRS No. 1109, then such embedded derivatives are not separated.
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
- | it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flow; and |
- | its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. |
A debt investment is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
- | it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and |
- | its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. |
On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Group may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investments fair value in other comprehensive income (OCI). This election is made on an investment-by-investment basis.
All financial assets not classified as measured at amortized cost or FVOCI as described above are measured at FVTPL. These include all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortized cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.
A financial asset (unless it is an account receivable - trade without a significant financing component that is initially measured at the transaction price) is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition.

i) Classification of financial assets and financial liabilities, Continued
The following accounting polices apply to the subsequent measurement of financial assets.
Financial assets at FVTPL | These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss. | |
Financial assets at amortized cost | These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss. | |
Debt investments at FVOCI | These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognized in OCI. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss. | |
Equity investments at FVOCI | These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognized as income in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognized in OCI and are never reclassified to profit or loss. |

ii) Impairment of financial assets
K-IFRS No. 1109 sets out a new expected credit loss (ECL) impairment model which replaces the incurred loss model under K-IFRS No. 1039 for recognizing and measuring impairment. The new impairment model applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, contract assets and debt investments at FVOCI, but not to investments in equity instruments. Under K-IFRS No. 1109, credit losses are recognized earlier than under K-IFRS No. 1039.

ii) Impairment of financial assets, Continued
ECL is a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all expected cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the entity in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive).
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. As a result of applying K-IFRS No. 1109, as of January 1, 2018, the Group recognizes the impairment loss on debt instruments at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses.
Loss allowance on financial assets measured at amortized cost is deducted from the carrying amount of the respective assets, while loss allowance on debt instruments at FVOCI is recognized in OCI, instead of reducing the carrying amount of the assets.
iii) Hedge accounting
When initially applying K-IFRS No. 1109, the Group elected as its accounting policy to apply hedge accounting requirements under K-IFRS No. 1109. The Group designates derivatives such as currency swaps as hedging instruments to hedge the risk of variability in cash flows associated with the foreign currency debentures and borrowings. As the Groups hedging instruments as of January 1, 2018 satisfy the hedge requirements of retrospective testing (80~125%) under K-IFRS No. 1039, there is no material effect of applying K-IFRS No. 1109.

(2) | Standards issued but not yet effective |
The following new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2018 and earlier application is permitted; however, the Group has not early adopted the following new standard in preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018.
K-IFRS | No. 1116, Leases |
The Group currently plans to apply K-IFRS No.1116 in the period beginning on January 1, 2019 and to assess the financial impact on its consolidated financial statements resulting from the adoption of K-IFRS No. 1116 by December 31, 2018. The assessment results will be disclosed in its annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2018. As of June 30, 2018, there have been no significant changes related to the financial impact assessment of adopting K-IFRS No. 1116 which was disclosed in the Groups consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Since there are no intersegment sales of inventory or depreciable assets, there is no unrealized intersegment profit to be eliminated on consolidation. The Group principally operates its businesses in Korea and the revenue earned outside of Korea are immaterial. Therefore, no entity-wide geographical information is presented.
No single customer contributed 10% or more to the Groups total revenue for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

(*) | The Group writes off the trade and other receivables when contractual payments are more than 5 years past due, or for reasons such as shut-down or liquidation. |
(3) | The Group applies the simplified approach that allows the Group to estimate the loss allowance for accounts receivables - trade at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses. The expected credit losses include the forward-looking information. To make that assessment, the Group uses its historical credit loss experience and classifies the accounts receivable - trade by their credit risk characteristics and days overdue. |
As the Group is the wireless telecommunication services provider, the Groups financial assets measured at amortized cost consist primarily of receivables from numerous individual customers and, accordingly, no significant credit concentration risk arises.

(ii) Interest rate risk
The interest rate risk of the Group arises from borrowings and debentures. Since the Groups interest bearing assets are mostly fixed-interest bearing assets, the Groups revenue and operating cash flows are not influenced by the changes in market interest rates.
The Group performs various analysis of interest rate risk to reduce interest rate risk and to optimize its financing. To minimize risks arising from changes in interest rates, the Group takes various measures such as refinancing, renewal, alternative financing and hedging.
As of
June 30, 2018, the floating-rate borrowings and debentures of the Group are 229,182 million and W336,510 million, respectively, and the Group has entered into
interest rate swap agreements for some of floating-rate borrowings and debentures to hedge interest rate risk. W
If the interest rate
increases (decreases) 1%p with all other variables held constant, income before income taxes for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 would change by
858 million due to the interest expense on floating-rate borrowings that are exposed to interest rate risk. W

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. To manage credit risk, the Group evaluates the credit worthiness of each customer or counterparty considering the partys financial information, its own trading records and other factors. Based on such information, the Group establishes credit limits for each customer or counterparty.
The Group establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts on its estimated losses in respect of trade and other receivables. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures and a collective loss component established for groups of similar assets in respect of losses that have been expected to occur. The collective loss allowance is determined based on historical data of payment statistics for similar financial assets. Also, the Groups credit risk can arise from transactions with financial institutions related to its cash and cash equivalents, financial instruments and derivatives. To minimize such risk, the Group has a policy to deal only with financial institutions with high credit ratings. The amount of maximum exposure to credit risk of the Group is the carrying amount of financial assets as of June 30, 2018.
3) Liquidity risk
The Groups approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will always maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents balances and have enough liquidity through various committed credit lines. The Group maintains enough liquidity within credit lines through strong operating activities.

The above information does not include fair values of financial assets and liabilities of which fair values have not been measured as carrying amounts are reasonable approximation of fair values.
Available-for-sale financial assets amounting to 199,903 million as of December 31, 2017 are measured at cost in accordance with
K-IFRS 1039 since they are equity instruments which do not have quoted price in an active market for the identical instruments and for which fair value cannot be reliably measured using other valuation
methods. W
Fair value of the financial instruments classified as financial assets at FVOCI that are traded in an active market is measured based on the bid price at the end of the reporting date.
The Group uses various valuation methods for determination of fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market. Derivative financial contracts and long-term liabilities are measured using the discounted present value methods. Other financial assets are determined using the methods such as discounted cash flow and market approach. Inputs used to such valuation methods include swap rate, interest rate, and risk premium, and the Group performs valuation using the inputs which are consistent with natures of assets and liabilities measured.
