YNBY International Limited (stock code: 00030) has announced a voluntary on-market share repurchase programme following shareholder approval of a 10% general buy-back mandate at the 16 May 2025 AGM.
Key parameters • Scope: Up to 679.99 million ordinary shares, equivalent to 10% of the company’s issued share capital as at the AGM date. • Budget: A maximum of HK$39.00 million will be deployed. • Funding: The repurchase will be financed entirely by existing cash reserves and free cash flow; no external borrowing will be used. • Pricing cap: In line with Hong Kong Listing Rules, the buy-back price per share may not exceed a 5% premium to the average closing price over the five trading days preceding each transaction. • Duration: Authorised purchases may occur from 18 March 2026 until the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next AGM, (ii) the statutory deadline for holding the next AGM, or (iii) any earlier revocation or revision of the mandate by shareholders.
Strategic considerations Management may either cancel the repurchased shares or hold them as treasury stock, subject to corporate needs and any required approvals. The board states that the programme demonstrates confidence in the company’s outlook and aligns with its long-term development strategy.
Regulatory safeguards The company confirmed that repurchases will be conducted within the Listing Rules, the Hong Kong Takeovers Code, and Bermuda law, ensuring that: • Public float does not fall below the minimum requirement; and • No mandatory general offer obligation is triggered under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.
Implementation discretion Execution of the buy-back will depend on prevailing market conditions and is at the company’s sole discretion. There is no assurance regarding the exact timing, volume or price of repurchases, and shareholders are advised to exercise caution when trading the stock.
