Jun 18

On 18 June 2026, Tencent Holdings Limited disclosed that it repurchased 1.14 million ordinary shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The shares were bought within a price range of HK$435.60 to HK$445.80, for a total consideration of HK$500.97 million, implying an average purchase price of approximately HK$437.9 per share.

The latest transaction lifts Tencent’s cumulative buy-backs under the shareholder mandate granted on 13 May 2026 to 23.93 million shares, equivalent to 0.26% of the company’s issued share capital on the mandate date. The authority allows for the repurchase of up to 911.80 million shares; utilisation therefore stands at roughly 2.6% of the approved limit.

Between 1 and 18 June 2026, Tencent has repurchased but not yet cancelled a total of 14.83 million shares—about 0.16% of its current 9.11 billion issued shares. All repurchased shares are intended for cancellation; the company held no treasury shares as of the reporting date.

Tencent’s issued share count remained unchanged at 9.11 billion ordinary shares as at both 17 and 18 June 2026. Under Hong Kong listing rules, the company is subject to a moratorium on new share issues or treasury-share sales until 18 July 2026 following the latest buy-back.
