Shenzhen International Holdings Limited announced a Scrip Dividend Scheme for its FY2025 final dividend, offering shareholders HK$0.46 per share. The arrangement—approved at the 13 May 2026 AGM—allows eligible investors to receive the dividend wholly in new shares, wholly in cash, or a combination of both.
The market value of the scrip shares will be based on the average closing price recorded from 18 May 2026 to 22 May 2026. Shareholders who take no action will automatically receive the dividend in shares, with fractional entitlements settled in cash.
Key dates: • Record date: 20 May 2026 • Election deadline: 4:30 p.m., 9 June 2026 • Dispatch of share certificates/dividend warrants: 22 June 2026 • Expected first trading day of scrip shares: 23 June 2026
Shareholders registered in China, Macau and Singapore may participate, while those in California, Pennsylvania and Illinois will receive cash only, due to local regulatory constraints.
Implementation of the scheme depends on the Stock Exchange granting listing and trading approval for the new shares. As of the latest practicable date, the company had 33.27 million outstanding share options and 517.97 million shares held through Southbound Trading programs, both unaffected by the dividend choice.
The board highlights that the scheme enables investors to expand their holdings without incurring transaction costs, while retaining cash within the company for operational needs.
