Akeso will convene its annual general meeting (AGM) on 29 June 2026 at 14:00 in Zhongshan, Guangdong. Shareholders will vote on four core proposals:
1. Capital Authorities • Issuance Mandate: Directors may allot and issue up to 20% of existing share capital, equivalent to 184.23 million shares, based on the current 921.14 million shares outstanding. • Repurchase Mandate: Directors may buy back up to 10% of issued shares, or 92.11 million shares. • Extension Mandate: Any repurchased shares can be added to the issuance limit, effectively expanding the potential new-issue capacity.
2. Board Composition • Re-election of three retiring directors—executives Dr. Li Baiyong and Dr. Wang Zhongmin Maxwell, and non-executive director Mr. Xie Ronggang.
3. Auditor Appointment • Re-appointment of Ernst & Young as external auditor for the year ending 31 December 2026, with estimated fees between RMB2.30 million and RMB3.00 million.
4. Procedural Matters • Register of members will be closed from 24 June to 29 June 2026, inclusive. • Shareholders must lodge transfer documents by 16:30 on 23 June 2026 to qualify for voting. • Proxy forms must be submitted by 14:00 on 27 June 2026.
Akeso confirms it holds no treasury shares and has no immediate plans to issue new shares or execute buy-backs under the proposed mandates.
