Schedule I - Condensed Financial Information of Parent (Coupang, Inc.)
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
- Basis of Presentation
These condensed Parent company-only financial statements have been derived from its consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Coupang, Inc. and subsidiaries included in Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K. The Parent’s significant accounting policies are consistent with those described in Note 1 — "Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in Part II, Item 8, except that all subsidiaries are accounted for as equity method investments.
Certain subsidiaries in Korea hold various licenses and/or are regulated by governmental requirements. As a result, the ability of these subsidiaries to pay dividends or loan money to our Parent company is restricted due to terms which require the subsidiaries to meet certain financial covenants, including maintaining a positive net equity balance; having a minimum percentage of its total assets in low-risk, cash-like assets; and maintaining a minimum current asset to current liability ratio. In addition, the Parent has certain regulatory restrictions that only allow dividend payments to be made while maintaining a positive net equity balance or if dividends are paid out of the current years' income, if any.
- Debt
The Parent has a $875 million unsecured credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) as further described in Note 13 — "Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt" which was amended to extend the term to February 2026. As of December 31, 2024, there wasno balance outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility.
