The latest announcement is out from Smart-Core Holdings Ltd. ( (HK:2166) ).
Smart-Core Holdings Ltd. has approved a new 2026 share award scheme, effective from 16 April 2026, that will use existing shares held in trust to reward eligible participants at no cost to them, subject to vesting conditions. The scheme caps total awards at 10% of the company’s issued share capital at adoption and is designed to retain key personnel, attract new talent, and tie staff incentives more closely to long-term group growth, with administration aligned to Hong Kong listing rules.
Concurrently, the board has resolved to terminate the existing 2016 share award scheme once the 2026 plan takes effect, transferring 31,420,000 residual shares into the new structure while preserving 4,000,000 unvested awards under their original terms. This transition refreshes Smart-Core’s equity incentive framework ahead of the 2016 plan’s scheduled expiry in 2026, signalling continued reliance on share-based compensation as a core tool for employee motivation and corporate development.
