Ordinary Shares Record Date May 20, 2026 Close of business, Hong Kong time, for AGM voting eligibility
ADS Record Date May 20, 2026 Close of business, U.S. Eastern Time, for ADS voting instructions
Hong Kong transfer cutoff 4:30 p.m., May 20, 2026 Deadline for lodging share transfers with Computershare Hong Kong
Cayman transfer cutoff 6:00 p.m., May 19, 2026 Deadline for lodging share transfers with Maples Fund Services
record date financial
"the record date for determining the eligibility of the holders of our Class A ordinary shares"
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.
American Depositary Shares financial
"Holders of American Depositary Shares (the “ADSs”) issued by The Bank of New York Mellon"
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.
Depositary financial
"The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary of the ADSs (the “Depositary”)"
A depositary is a financial institution that holds and safeguards financial assets, such as stocks or bonds, on behalf of investors. It ensures that ownership records are accurate and that transactions are processed securely. For investors, a depositary provides a trustworthy way to manage their investments, similar to a secure vault that keeps valuables safe and organized.
proxy materials regulatory
"together with the proxy materials in due course"
Proxy materials are the packet of documents sent to shareholders that explain items to be voted on at a company meeting and include the actual ballot or instructions for casting a vote. Think of them as a voting packet that lays out who’s running the company, major proposals (like pay, mergers, or board changes), and arguments for and against each item. Investors care because those votes shape corporate direction, affect risk and future profits, and can influence share value.
weighted voting rights financial
"A company controlled through weighted voting rights and incorporated in the Cayman Islands"
A system where some shares carry more voting power than others so certain owners can control corporate decisions with fewer shares. Think of it like tickets to a meeting where some tickets count for five votes and others for one: it lets founders or insiders steer strategy and board picks even if they don't own most of the stock. For investors this affects corporate governance, the protection of minority shareholders, and how much influence public holders have over major decisions.
