IDT International Limited ( (HK:0167) ) has provided an announcement.

The remaining 6.76% of shares were held by other investors, leaving a relatively small free float in the market.

This tight ownership base has coincided with extreme share price movements, with IDT’s stock surging about 989.9% between September 2025 and mid-March 2026 before retreating somewhat. Regulators cautioned that the limited public float could cause substantial price swings on low trading volumes and urged existing and prospective investors to exercise extreme caution when dealing in the stock.
