An announcement from Orient Securities Co., Ltd. Class H ( (HK:3958) ) is now available.

Orient Securities has agreed in principle to acquire 100% of Shanghai Securities by issuing new A shares and paying a portion in cash, with the issue price of the consideration shares set around RMB10.29–10.49 per share subject to adjustment after its 2025 profit distribution. Upon completion, Shanghai Securities will become a wholly owned subsidiary and its financials will be consolidated into the group, with the new shares to be issued under a specific mandate and listed in Shanghai.

The potential deal is expected to be treated as a notifiable transaction under Hong Kong listing rules, though its exact classification will only be determined once the total consideration is fixed and a definitive agreement is signed. As the vendors are independent third parties, the transaction is not expected to be a connected transaction, and the company plans to seek shareholder approval for the share issuance while committing to comply with all relevant Hong Kong regulatory requirements.
