Guangdong – Hong Kong Greater Bay Area Holdings Limited (GD-HKGBA Holdings) released its AGM circular dated 27 April 2026 outlining key resolutions to be tabled at the annual general meeting in Shenzhen on 17 June 2026.
The Board is asking shareholders to approve: • A general mandate permitting the allotment and issuance (or sale/transfer of any treasury shares) of up to 20% of the company’s issued share capital, equivalent to 236.78 million shares based on the current 1.18 billion shares outstanding (par value HK$0.10 each). • A repurchase mandate authorising the buyback of up to 10% of issued shares, or 118.39 million shares. Repurchased shares may be cancelled or held in treasury. • An extension that would add the number of shares repurchased under the buyback mandate to the issuance limit.
Management stressed that there is no immediate plan to issue or repurchase shares. Should the full buyback be executed, the combined interest of presumed concert parties China Guangdong-Hong Kong Greater Bay Area Holdings Limited and Champion Road Group would rise from 61.21% to 68.01%, a level the Board believes would not trigger a mandatory general offer under Hong Kong’s Takeovers Code. Public float is expected to remain above the 25% threshold.
Governance items scheduled for vote include the re-election of executive directors Luo Jieping (Chairman) and Zhong Junhua, together with independent non-executive directors Han Qinchun, Qian He and Liu Xiaoyan. Prism Hong Kong Limited is nominated for re-appointment as auditor with an expected FY 2026 audit fee of HK$1.85 million.
Shareholders registered by 4:30 p.m. on 11 June 2026 will be eligible to vote. The register of members will be closed from 12 June to 17 June 2026 (both dates inclusive).
