Samsonite Wins Shareholder Backing for Potential U.S. Dual Listing and Capital Restructuring

The latest announcement is out from Samsonite International SA ( (HK:1910) ).

Samsonite shareholders have approved an issuance mandate allowing directors to allot and issue up to 138,306,408 additional shares in connection with a potential dual listing of the company’s stock in the United States through American depositary shares. The mandate was passed with 94.35% of votes cast in favor, with no shareholders required to abstain, underscoring broad investor support for the company’s U.S. listing ambitions.

At a concurrent extraordinary general meeting, investors overwhelmingly backed amendments to Samsonite’s Articles of Incorporation to enable listing of American depositary shares in the U.S. and align governance with Hong Kong and Luxembourg requirements. Shareholders also approved a conditional reduction of share capital via cancellation of 79,301,100 treasury shares upon completion of the potential dual listing, a move that would simplify the capital structure and could enhance capital efficiency following a U.S. debut.
