Bulletin Express05-04

Essex Bio-Technology Limited filed its Monthly Return for the period ended 30 April 2026, confirming that both authorised and issued share capital remained unchanged during the month.

The company’s authorised share capital stood at 1.00 billion ordinary shares with a par value of HKD 0.10, representing total authorised capital of HKD 100 million. No increase or decrease was recorded.

Issued shares were steady at 567.01 million, with zero treasury shares outstanding. As a result, the total number of issued shares also remained at 567.01 million. Essex Bio-Tech confirmed compliance with the Hong Kong Main Board’s minimum public-float requirement of 25%.

Under the Share Option Scheme approved on 9 June 2023, no options were outstanding at month-end and no new shares were issued via option exercises. However, 57.06 million shares remain available for potential issuance under the scheme, providing future flexibility without diluting existing shareholders in the current period.

The filing reported no warrants, convertible securities, other share issuance arrangements, or movements in treasury shares.

The Monthly Return was submitted to Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited on 4 May 2026 and signed by Director Fang Haizhou.
