WANDA HOTEL DEV (00169) has called its annual general meeting (AGM) for 3 June 2026 at 10:00 a.m. in Central, Hong Kong. Key resolutions include the renewal of share issuance and repurchase mandates, re-election of four directors, and re-appointment of the external auditor.
The board is seeking: • A 12-month general mandate to issue up to 20% of the existing share capital, equal to 939.47 million new shares based on the 4.70 billion shares in issue as of 4 May 2026. • A parallel mandate to repurchase up to 10% of the share capital, or 469.73 million shares. Any repurchased stock may be cancelled or held as treasury shares, and the issue mandate may be extended by the amount of shares bought back.
Re-elections are proposed for Executive Director Han Xu; Non-Executive Directors He Qicong and Liang Xinhua; and Independent Non-Executive Director Dr. Teng Bing Sheng. The nomination committee confirmed Dr. Teng’s independence under Listing Rule 3.13.
Ernst & Young is nominated to continue as auditor for the year ending 31 December 2026, with an estimated audit fee of RMB 1.10 million–1.20 million.
The share register will close from 29 May to 3 June 2026 inclusive. Shareholders recorded on 3 June may attend and vote; all resolutions will be decided by poll.
Controlling shareholder Wanda Commercial Properties Overseas Limited holds 65.04% of issued shares. Full utilisation of the repurchase mandate would raise its stake to approximately 72.26%, still below the threshold that would trigger a mandatory offer under the Takeovers Code, according to the board.
Proxy forms must be lodged with Tricor Investor Services by 1 June 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Completion of a proxy does not preclude in-person voting at the AGM.
