Auntea Jenny (Shanghai) Industrial Co., Ltd. has released an updated Articles of Association, effective July 2026, providing a detailed governance blueprint for the HK-listed beverage group.
Key corporate governance features • Board composition: The Company will maintain a seven-member board, including at least three independent non-executive directors and one employee representative. A chairperson is elected by a simple majority of directors for a three-year term. • Audit & oversight: An audit committee—comprising three non-management directors, two of whom are independent—assumes supervisory responsibilities and must pre-approve financial disclosures, auditor appointments and CFO hiring. Nomination and remuneration committees are also mandated, each led by an independent director. • Shareholder safeguards: – Shareholders holding 1% or more of issued shares can submit meeting proposals; those holding at least 10% for 90 consecutive days may convene an extraordinary general meeting if the board fails to act. – Cumulative voting applies in director elections and independent director appointments. – Related-party shareholders must abstain from voting on connected transactions; resolutions require a majority of non-related votes. • Party organisation: The Company formally establishes a Communist Party committee, consistent with PRC corporate law.
Capital and share information The Articles confirm total issued capital of 105.20 million ordinary shares, comprising 94.68 million H shares and 10.52 million unlisted domestic shares. Shares are denominated at RMB 1.00 each; all are subject to equal economic rights.
Share transfer & lock-up rules Directors and senior management face a 12-month lock-up post-listing and may dispose of no more than 25% of their holdings in any subsequent 12-month period. Company-held treasury shares carry no voting rights.
Dividend and reserve policy • Distribution frequency: At least once per financial year, subject to board proposal and shareholder approval. • Cash priority: If distributable profits are positive and operating needs are met, cash dividends take precedence over scrip. • Implementation: Approved dividends must be paid within two months of the relevant shareholders’ meeting.
Capital management The Company may repurchase up to 10% of issued shares for employee incentives, bond conversion or value-preservation purposes, subject to shareholder or board approval depending on the circumstance. Capital reduction, mergers or liquidation require special resolutions and creditor notification procedures.
Dissolution & liquidation Clear steps are detailed for voluntary dissolution, bankruptcy filing and simplified deregistration where no debts exist, with liquidation committees empowered to settle claims and distribute residual assets.
The Articles align Auntea Jenny’s governance framework with PRC Company Law, CSRC regulations and HKEX Listing Rules, reinforcing shareholder participation, independent oversight and disciplined profit distribution.
