Zhongguancun Science-Tech Leasing Expands Sale-and-Leaseback Deals With Discloseable Transaction

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Zhongguancun Science-Tech Leasing Co. Ltd. Class H ( (HK:1601) ) has provided an announcement.

Zhongguancun Science-Tech Leasing has entered into a new finance lease agreement with a Chinese medicine producer, under which it will acquire leased assets for RMB49 million and lease them back over 18 months for total payments of about RMB51.21 million, including RMB2.21 million in interest. This follows an earlier 18‑month sale-and-leaseback deal signed in November 2025 with a solar water heater seller for RMB30 million of assets and RMB31.41 million in total payments; together, the related-party transactions meet Hong Kong disclosure thresholds, underscoring the growing scale of the company’s leasing activities and its compliance with listing rule transparency requirements.

The two lessees are under common control but, along with their ultimate beneficial owners, are otherwise independent of Zhongguancun Science-Tech Leasing and its connected persons, according to the board. Aggregation of the agreements over a 12‑month period pushed the highest applicable percentage ratio above 5% but below 25%, classifying the latest arrangement as a discloseable transaction that requires notification and public announcement, a development that may draw closer investor attention to the company’s risk management and credit exposure to commonly controlled clients.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:1601) stock is a Buy with a HK$0.97 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Zhongguancun Science-Tech Leasing Co. Ltd. Class H stock, see the HK:1601 Stock Forecast page.
