Guoquan Food Plans Up to HK$200 Million H-Share Buyback Pending Mandate Approval

Guoquan Food (Shanghai) Company., Ltd. Class H ( (HK:2517) ) has provided an announcement.

Guoquan Food (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. plans to seek shareholder approval at its 2025 annual general meeting for a mandate allowing the board to repurchase up to 10% of its H shares, excluding treasury stock, through 2026. Under this proposed mandate, the board has resolved to implement an H share repurchase plan of up to HK$200 million on the open market, with prices capped at no more than 5% above the average closing price over the preceding five trading days.

The company may cancel repurchased shares or hold them as treasury stock and will continue buybacks under its existing 2024 mandate until the 2025 meeting. Management says the current share price undervalues the firm’s intrinsic worth and prospects, viewing the repurchase as a way to signal confidence, enhance shareholder value, and support its market positioning, while pledging compliance with Hong Kong listing, takeover, and public float rules and warning that execution will depend on market conditions and board discretion.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:2517) stock is a Buy with a HK$4.80 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Guoquan Food (Shanghai) Company., Ltd. Class H stock, see the HK:2517 Stock Forecast page.
