China Starch Holdings Limited disclosed that it repurchased 7.36 million ordinary shares on 13 July 2026 via on-market transactions at prices ranging from HK$0.166 to HK$0.170 per share. The consideration paid totalled HK$1.24 million.
The shares were bought for cancellation and lift the cumulative number of shares repurchased under the mandate granted on 12 May 2026 to 109.68 million, representing 1.84 % of the company’s issued share capital on the mandate date. The mandate allows purchases of up to 596.45 million shares, leaving roughly 486.77 million shares (or about 81.6 % of the mandate) still available for future buybacks.
Although 109.68 million shares are awaiting cancellation, the company’s issued share capital remained unchanged at 5.96 billion shares as of 13 July 2026. In accordance with Hong Kong Stock Exchange rules, China Starch is restricted from issuing new shares until 12 August 2026, 30 days after the latest repurchase.
Leung Siu Hong, Company Secretary, confirmed that all repurchases complied with the Hong Kong Main Board Listing Rules and the terms of the explanatory statement dated 14 April 2026.
