Samsonite Group S.A. (1910) has scheduled a General Meeting on March 19, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. (CET)/7:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time), followed by an Extraordinary General Meeting at 12:15 p.m. (CET)/7:15 p.m. (Hong Kong time). Shareholders will consider granting a Dual Listing Issuance Mandate, amending the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, and canceling outstanding treasury shares.
The Dual Listing Issuance Mandate would authorize issuing up to 138.31 million shares (9.97% of the total issued shares excluding treasury shares as of February 9, 2026) at a discount not exceeding 15% from the last closing price or below 20% from the Benchmarked Price. This mandate aims to facilitate a potential additional listing of Samsonite shares in the form of American depositary shares on a U.S. exchange, subject to market conditions.
In connection with a completed buyback program totaling 79.30 million shares (acquired for US$200.04 million, excluding fees), the Extraordinary General Meeting will also vote on canceling all treasury shares that remain outstanding. Upon completion of the potential dual listing, the Company plans to reduce its share capital by US$0.79 million, reflecting the cancellation of these 79.30 million treasury shares to help offset potential dilution from new issuances.
Additional details, including proxy arrangements, meeting formats, and the exact text of the proposed resolutions, appear in Samsonite Group S.A.’s circulated document. Shareholders can refer to the original notices for the official instructions and attend or vote by proxy as directed.
