Scholar Education Group ( (HK:1769) ) has provided an announcement.

Scholar Education Group has reported that the trustee of its share award scheme bought 593,000 shares on the market on 15 May 2026, representing about 0.088% of its issued share capital, at an average price of roughly HK$1.31 per share. The shares, bringing the trustee’s total holdings to 16,388,000 shares or 2.43% of the company, will be held on trust for selected participants under the scheme as the board continues to use share awards to incentivize staff and signal confidence in the company’s valuation and business outlook.

The board stated it views the current share price as significantly undervaluing the company’s underlying value, and it sees present market conditions as an attractive opportunity to accumulate shares for future awards. Management indicated it will keep monitoring market and trading conditions, and will decide at its discretion both the timing of further purchases for the scheme and the vesting terms for participants, reinforcing a strategy of using share-based compensation to support long-term performance and retention.
