Share buy-backs awaiting cancellation • Between 24 September and 23 October, Xinyi Energy repurchased 27.32 million shares for cancellation. • The purchases were executed on the Exchange at volume-weighted average prices ranging from HK$0.70 to HK$0.79 per share. • Aggregate consideration for the nine transactions totalled HK$20.48 million, implying an average buy-back price of HK$0.75 per share.

Latest daily transaction • On 23 October alone, the company bought back 7.26 million shares at prices between HK$0.705 and HK$0.730, spending HK$5.21 million.

Capital base implications • All repurchased shares remain outstanding as at 23 October; once cancelled, the issued share count would decline from 8.65 billion to roughly 8.63 billion, a reduction of about 0.32%.

Repurchase mandate utilisation • The current shareholder mandate approved on 29 May 2026 allows Xinyi Energy to repurchase up to 851.97 million shares. • Cumulative buy-backs since the mandate’s approval have reached 70.37 million shares, equivalent to 0.83% of the company’s share base at that time, leaving significant headroom for further purchases.

Issuance moratorium • In line with Hong Kong listing rules, Xinyi Energy is restricted from issuing new shares or transferring any treasury shares until 23 November 2026, 30 days after the latest repurchase.
