Insights

Routine option exercises increased the CMO’s share holdings without any open-market sales.

All transactions are coded “M”, meaning Wang Bei exercised stock options to convert derivative awards into Class A ordinary shares of So-Young International Inc.. The largest step was exercising 30,260 options at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, boosting direct ownership to 141,940 shares.

The remaining entries show exercises of fully vested options from earlier grants, some bringing their balances to zero. A January 1, 2026 grant of 38,466 options still leaves 35,261 options outstanding, vesting quarterly through January 1, 2029. With no sales, tax withholdings, or gifts reported, these look like standard compensation-driven exercises rather than market-timing trades.

American depositary shares financial
"The Class A ordinary shares are held in the form of American depositary shares ("ADS"), 13 of which represent 10 class A ordinary shares"
American depositary shares (ADSs) are a way for investors in the United States to buy shares of foreign companies without dealing with international markets directly. They represent ownership in a foreign company's stock and are traded on U.S. stock exchanges, making it easier for American investors to buy, sell, and own parts of companies from around the world.

Class A ordinary share financial
"Class A ordinary share, par value US$0.01"
A Class A ordinary share is a type of common stock a company issues that carries a specific set of rights—most often particular voting power, dividend terms, or transfer rules—distinct from other share classes. For investors it matters because those rights affect control over company decisions, how income is paid out, and how easy shares are to buy or sell; think of it like a tiered ticket that gives different access and influence at the same event.
