Kuaishou Technology disclosed that it repurchased 1.30 million Class B weighted-voting-rights shares on 23 September 2026 at prices ranging from HKD 30.50 to HKD 30.80 per share, for a total outlay of HKD 39.96 million. The shares will be cancelled.

The latest transaction lifts total repurchases under the 25 June 2026 general mandate to 37.81 million shares, equivalent to 0.87 % of the company’s issued share capital on the mandate date. The mandate permits the company to buy back up to 432.69 million shares.

Including the 1.30 million shares bought on 23 September, 25.52 million repurchased shares—about 0.59 % of the current share base—are awaiting cancellation.

Separately, on 22 September 2026, 4,800 new Class B shares were issued upon exercise of employee stock options under the pre-IPO incentive scheme adopted on 6 February 2018. The issuance increased the Class B share count to 3,664.18 million, adding only 0.0001 % to the total issued shares.

Under Hong Kong listing rules, Kuaishou cannot issue new shares until 23 October 2026, 30 days after the latest on-market buyback. The company confirmed all repurchase and issuance activities were duly authorised and complied with relevant regulations.
