Hong Kong–listed Melco International Development Limited released its Monthly Return for the period ended 30 April 2026. The filing shows no change in issued share capital, continued compliance with public-float requirements, and a modest decline in outstanding share options.
Issued Shares and Public Float
• The company’s issued ordinary share capital remained unchanged at 2.28 billion shares, with zero treasury shares recorded at month-end. • Melco International confirmed that at least 25% of its issued shares remained in public hands, satisfying the Hong Kong Stock Exchange’s minimum public-float threshold.
Share-Based Incentives
• Under the 2012 Share Option Scheme, 445,119 options lapsed during April, trimming the outstanding balance to 2.16 million options. No options were exercised, granted or cancelled, and no new shares were issued pursuant to option exercises. • The Share Incentive Scheme reported no outstanding options; however, it still authorises the potential issuance of up to 151.67 million shares in the future. • Total funds raised from option exercises in April were HKD 0.
Other Capital Movements
• The company reported no activity in warrants, convertible securities, share repurchases, or other share-issuance arrangements during the month. • Consequently, both the total number of issued shares and treasury shares were unchanged.
Key Takeaway
Melco International’s April 2026 report highlights a stable capital structure with full public-float compliance. The only notable movement was the lapse of a small tranche of options under the 2012 scheme, leaving the overall share count and cash position unaffected.
