SAINT BELLA GROUP LIMITED reported a fresh on-market share repurchase of 87,500 ordinary shares on 24 September 2026, according to its Next Day Disclosure Return filed with the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
The buyback was executed within a price range of HKD 2.95–3.05 per share, translating into a volume-weighted average cost of HKD 2.99 per share and an aggregate outlay of HKD 0.26 million. The repurchased shares—representing 0.0142 % of the company’s 616.41 million issued shares (excluding treasury shares) prior to the transaction—will be held as treasury shares; none are earmarked for cancellation at this stage.
Following the transaction: • Issued shares (excluding treasury shares) decreased to 616.32 million. • Treasury shares rose to 5.88 million, bringing total issued shares (inclusive of treasury stock) to 622.20 million.
The buyback forms part of the mandate approved by shareholders on 30 June 2026, which authorises repurchases of up to 62.22 million shares. Cumulative purchases under this mandate now stand at 5.88 million shares, equivalent to 9.45 % of the authorised limit and 0.94 % of the company’s issued share base as at the mandate date.
Under Hong Kong listing rules, SAINT BELLA GP faces a 30-day moratorium—ending 24 October 2026—during which it cannot issue new shares or dispose of treasury shares without prior Exchange approval.
Joint Company Secretary Hao Yizhe confirmed that the repurchase complied with Main Board regulations and that no material changes have occurred to the repurchase mandate’s explanatory statement dated 26 May 2026.
