DC Holdings: Shareholders Reject Bye-laws Overhaul as Special Resolution Gains Only 42.05% Support

Bulletin Express
Jun 26

Digital China Holdings Limited (DC Holdings, 00861) announced that its sole special resolution—aimed at revising and replacing the company’s existing Bye-laws—failed to secure the required 75% approval threshold at the Special General Meeting (SGM) on 26 June 2026. The motion garnered 499.13 million votes in favour (42.05%) versus 687.91 million votes against (57.95%).

Total voting base: Of the 1.67 billion shares in issue, 191.99 million unvested shares held by Law Debenture Trust (Asia) Limited were required to abstain under Listing Rules, leaving 1.48 billion shares eligible to vote. No other shareholders were subject to voting restrictions, and none had signalled an intention to oppose or abstain ahead of the meeting.

Governance participation: All board members participated electronically except Non-executive Director Ms Cong Shan, who was absent due to other commitments. Tricor Investor Services Limited acted as scrutineer for the poll.

Board composition (post-SGM) remains unchanged: Executive Directors Mr. Guo Wei (Chairman & CEO), Mr. Lin Yang (Vice Chairman) and Mr. Cai Yinghua (President & COO); Non-executive Director Ms Cong Shan; and five Independent Non-executive Directors—Dr. Liu Yun, Mr. William King, Dr. Guo Song, Mr. Michael Chan Wai Hong and Dr. Li Jing.

The outcome leaves DC Holdings operating under its existing Bye-laws, with no immediate structural amendments enacted following the SGM vote.
