Management Discussion and Analysis
In 2014, our consolidated sales, which is principally derived from the sale of electric power, increased by 6.3% to Won 57,123 billion from Won 53,713 billion in 2013, reflecting primarily a 4.7% increase in our average electricity tariff rates in 2014 compared to 2013 and a 0.58% increase in the volume of electricity sold from 474,849 gigawatt hours in 2013 to 477,592 gigawatt hours in 2014. For a discussion of the increase in our electricity tariff rates which are regulated by the Government, see Item 4B. “Business Overview—Sales and Customers—Electricity Rates.” The overall increase in the volume of electricity sold was primarily attributable to a 2.7% increase in the volume of electricity sold to the industrial sector, which represents the largest segment of electricity consumption in Korea, from 265,373 gigawatt hours in 2013 to 272,552 gigawatt hours in 2014, which was partially offset by a 1.4% decrease in the volume of electricity sold to the commercial sector from 102,196 gigawatt hours in 2013 to 100,761 gigawatt hours in 2014 and a 2.1% decrease in the volume of
electricity sold to the residential sector from 65,815 gigawatt hours in 2013 to 64,457 gigawatt hours in 2014. The increase in the volume of electricity sold to the industrial sector was primarily due to the general increase in demand for electricity in this sector in Korea largely as a result of continued export-led growth of the Korean economy, which involved an increased industrial output and greater capacity utilization in industrial plants. The decreases in the volume of electricity sold to the commercial and residential sectors were largely due to weather conditions, including cooler summer and warmer winter in 2014 compared to 2013.
As a cumulative result of the above factors, our consolidated profit increased significantly to Won 2,799 billion in 2014 from Won 174 billion in 2013. Our consolidated net profit margin also increased significantly to 4.9% in 2014 from 0.3% in 2013. Our profit attributable to the owners of the company was Won 2,687 billion in 2014 from Won 60 billion attributable to the owners of the company in 2013.

Management Discussion and Analysis
2013 Compared to 2012
In 2013, our consolidated sales, which is principally derived from the sale of electric power, increased by 9.3% to Won 53,713 billion from Won 49,121 billion in 2012, reflecting primarily a 7.3% overall increase in our average electricity tariff rates in 2013 (as a result of a 4.0% increase effective January 14, 2013 and a 5.4% increase effective November 21, 2013) and a 1.8% increase in the volume of electricity sold from 466,593 gigawatt hours in 2012 to 474,849 gigawatt hours in 2013. The overall increase in the volume of electricity sold was primarily attributable to a 2.8% increase in the volume of electricity sold to the industrial sector, which represents the largest segment of electricity consumption in Korea, from 258,102 gigawatt hours in 2012 to 265,373 gigawatt hours in 2013, and, to a lesser extent, a 0.6% increase in the volume of electricity sold to the commercial sector from 101,593 gigawatt hours in 2012 to 102,196 gigawatt hours in 2013 and a 0.5% increase in the volume of electricity sold to the residential sector, from 65,484 gigawatt hours in 2012 to 65,815 gigawatt hours in 2013. The increase in the volume of electricity sold to the industrial sector was primarily due to the general increase in demand for electricity in this sector in Korea largely as a result of continued export-led growth of the Korean economy, which involved an increased industrial output and greater capacity utilization in industrial plants. For a discussion of the increase in our electricity tariff rates, see Item 4B. “Business Overview—Sales and Customers—Electricity Rates.”
As a cumulative result of the above factors, we had consolidated profit of Won 174 billion in 2013, compared to consolidated loss of Won 3,078 billion in 2012. Our consolidated net profit margin was 0.3% in 2013 compared to consolidated net loss margin of 6.3% in 2012. Our profit attributable to the owners of the company was Won 60 billion in 2013, compared to loss of Won 3,167 billion attributable to the owners of the company in 2012.
