Insights

TL;DR: A routine share repurchase of 281,290 shares was executed and will be cancelled, modestly reducing the share count.

This transaction represents a standard on-market buy-back executed via Merrill Lynch International under shareholder-authorized authority announced earlier in 2025. The company reports the exact volume repurchased and the post-transaction shares in issue, which provides transparency for disclosure thresholds. No earnings, cash usage details, or material changes to capital structure beyond the share cancellation are disclosed in this notice, so the immediate financial impact on per-share metrics cannot be quantified from this filing alone.

TL;DR: The buy-back follows shareholder authorization and compliance with relevant listing and buy-back rules.

The announcement confirms the repurchase was performed on-exchange and as an on-market purchase for Hong Kong purposes, and that the Company intends to cancel the shares. The filing also updates the total voting rights figure for shareholder notification purposes, fulfilling regulatory transparency obligations. No governance concerns or departures from documented authority are indicated in the filing.
