China Jinmao Holdings Group Limited on 16 April 2026 announced that its 51%-owned subsidiary Chengdu Quanmao Real Estate Co., Ltd. has signed a three-year loan framework agreement with its shareholders Beijing Yicheng Property Co., Ltd. (51%) and Chengdu Jingkai Urban Renewal Construction and Development Co., Ltd. (49%).
Key terms
1. Loan structure: Chengdu Quanmao will extend loans to Beijing Yicheng and Chengdu Jingkai, or their designated entities, in proportion to their respective equity stakes—51% and 49%—and on identical terms. Individual loan agreements will be executed under the framework.
2. Size cap: The maximum daily outstanding balance of loans (principal plus accrued interest) to Chengdu Jingkai during the three-year term is capped at RMB1.57 billion.
3. Pricing: Each loan will carry an effective interest rate linked to the latest Loan Prime Rate (LPR) published by the National Interbank Funding Center, within a floating band of ±50%.
4. Tenor and repayment: Specific maturities will be set in the separate loan contracts but will not exceed the framework’s three-year validity. Principal and interest are, in principle, repayable together; Chengdu Quanmao may demand early repayment in line with its liquidity needs.
5. Offsetting right: If either borrower defaults, Chengdu Quanmao may offset outstanding amounts against sums it owes to the same party.
Strategic rationale
Management expects robust sales at Chengdu Quanmao to generate sufficient cash. Redirecting surplus funds to its shareholders enables more efficient capital deployment across the wider China Jinmao group while maintaining at least three months of working-capital reserves for Chengdu Quanmao’s property projects.
Regulatory classification
• Beijing Yicheng is a wholly owned subsidiary of China Jinmao; Chengdu Jingkai is a substantial but non-connected shareholder because Chengdu Quanmao qualifies as an “insignificant subsidiary” under Rule 14A.09. • The maximum daily balance to Chengdu Jingkai triggers one or more percentage ratios above 5% but below 25%; therefore, the arrangement is deemed a “discloseable transaction” under Chapter 14 of the Hong Kong Listing Rules. No shareholder approval is required.
Corporate profiles
• China Jinmao: Hong Kong–listed platform of Sinochem Holdings for property development, covering residential and integrated projects, hotels, retail, leasing, property services, construction technology, urban agent construction and urban renewal in the PRC. • Chengdu Quanmao: Indirect non-wholly-owned subsidiary engaged in real estate development in Chengdu. • Beijing Yicheng: China Jinmao’s wholly owned subsidiary focused on real estate development and project investment. • Chengdu Jingkai: PRC state-linked entity overseen by the Management Committee of Chengdu Jingkai Technological Development Zone, engaged in construction engineering, real estate development and land consolidation.
The board of China Jinmao considers the loan framework fair, conducted on normal commercial terms and in the interests of the company and its shareholders as a whole. The agreement becomes effective immediately and will run until 15 April 2029.
