Leader Education Limited (Stock code: 1449) has released a circular announcing its upcoming Annual General Meeting scheduled for 24 February 2026 at 3:30 p.m. in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, China. The meeting will cover four key proposals: granting general mandates to issue and buy back shares, re-electing directors, changing auditors, and addressing other AGM-related matters.

According to the announcement, the board will propose a general mandate authorizing the allotment, issuance, and disposal of shares (including any resale from treasury) up to 20% of the total issued share capital. A separate mandate, capped at 10%, will allow the company to buy back shares on the Stock Exchange, subject to market conditions and regulatory requirements.

Four directors—two executive and two independent non-executive—will stand for re-election. The executive directors up for re-election are named as Mr. Wang and Mr. Che. Meanwhile, Mr. Chan and Mr. Xu will also stand for election in their roles as independent non-executive directors.

On the auditors front, BDO Limited will retire following the board’s inability to reach consensus on the audit fee. The board recommends appointing Jon Gepsom CPA Limited as the new auditors, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM. The company cites Jon Gepsom CPA Limited’s available resources, independence, and experience as key factors supporting the proposed appointment.

The 2025 Annual Report, containing audited financial statements and the directors’ and auditors’ reports, was previously dispatched to shareholders. Proxy forms must be deposited with the company’s Hong Kong branch share registrar 48 hours before the meeting for voting eligibility. Shareholders registered on 24 February 2026 will be entitled to vote at the meeting.
