RESOL generates revenue through hotel room sales, green fees, vacation villa rentals, F&B, corporate employee benefit subscriptions, and renewable energy sales.

Mitsui Fudosan (31.04% stake) and Konami Group (20.38% stake) are the two largest shareholders, anchoring a stable strategic ownership structure formed via 2005-2006 capital and business alliances.
