YSB Inc., a Cayman-incorporated company listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, reported a further repurchase of 633,600 ordinary shares on 23 October 2026, according to its latest Next Day Disclosure Return filed on the same date.
• Transaction details: The shares were acquired on-market at prices ranging from HK$3.50 to HK$3.64, for a total consideration of HK$2.27 million. All repurchased shares are intended for cancellation rather than retention as treasury stock.
• Share capital position: The company’s issued share capital stood at 692.49 million shares both before and after the transaction because the 633,600 shares had not yet been cancelled as of the reporting date.
• Outstanding repurchases pending cancellation: Including the 23 October purchase, YSB now holds 8.03 million shares pending cancellation, equivalent to approximately 1.16 % of the current issued share base.
• Mandate utilisation: Since shareholders renewed the buyback mandate on 21 May 2026 (authorising repurchases of up to 68.81 million shares), YSB has acquired 6.23 million shares, representing 0.90 % of the company’s issued shares on the mandate date. The latest transaction brings total deployment of the mandate to roughly 9 % of the authorised limit.
• Post-repurchase restrictions: In line with Hong Kong Listing Rules, YSB is subject to a moratorium on issuing new shares or transferring treasury shares until 22 November 2026.
The filing confirms that the board authorised the repurchase and that all regulatory requirements and financial settlements have been satisfied.
