Sun Hung Kai & Co. Limited reported a further on-market share repurchase on 1 September 2026, acquiring 348,000 ordinary shares at prices ranging between HKD 4.095 and HKD 4.125. The transaction totalled HKD 1.43 million, implying an average cost of roughly HKD 4.11 per share.
Including this latest purchase, the company has bought back 1.46 million shares between 24 August and 1 September that are earmarked for cancellation. The cumulative consideration for these trades amounts to approximately HKD 6.00 million, translating into a volume-weighted average price of about HKD 4.11 per share. The repurchased stock represents around 0.07 % of the current 1.96 billion issued shares.
Despite the recent activity, the issued share capital of Sun Hung Kai & Co. remains unchanged at 1,960.62 million shares because the repurchased shares had not yet been cancelled as of the reporting date.
Under the repurchase mandate approved on 27 May 2026, the board is authorised to buy back up to 196.50 million shares, equivalent to 10 % of the company’s issued share capital at that time. To date, 5.80 million shares—about 0.30 % of the shares then in issue—have been repurchased under this mandate. Following the latest purchase, the company is subject to a moratorium on new share issues or treasury-share sales until 1 October 2026, in line with Hong Kong Stock Exchange regulations.
