MiniMax Group Inc. announced that Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited has approved its transition from a Pre-Commercial Company to a Commercial Company under Chapter 18C of the Listing Rules, following FY2025 revenue that met the HK$250.00 million threshold.
Key implications of the approval:
1. Stock marker removal and trading name change • The “P” marker, which denotes Pre-Commercial status, will be removed. • From 9:00 a.m. on 18 Mar 2026, Class A ordinary shares will trade under the new short name “MINIMAX-W” instead of “MINIMAX-WP”. • The stock code remains 0100; existing share certificates, board lot size, trading currency, and registrar arrangements are unchanged.
2. Updated lock-up expiries • Founders and close associates: 79.10 million shares (25.22 % of issued capital) remain restricted until 8 Jan 2027. • Other executive management: 12.39 million shares (3.94 %) locked until 8 Jan 2027. • Pathfinder SIIs (miHoYo affiliates): 17.93 million shares (5.72 %) locked until 8 Jul 2026. • IDG-related SIIs: 7.84 million shares (2.50 %) locked until 8 Jul 2026. • The above restrictions comply with Rule 18C.23 and voluntary undertakings disclosed in the prospectus.
3. Capital structure snapshot • Total shares in issue: 313.64 million, comprising 232.53 million Class A and 81.10 million Class B shares. • Weighted voting rights remain with the founders, Dr. Yan and Ms. Yun.
