S.F. Holding (06936) significantly increases A-share repurchase funds to 3 billion to 6 billion yuan.

S.F. Holding (06936) announced that the company plans to make changes to its A-share repurchase plan. Based on the firm confidence in the company's future development prospects and the high recognition of the company's value, in order to effectively protect the interests of the majority of investors, enhance investor confidence, and increase long-term investment value, the company held its seventh board meeting on March 30, 2026 to deliberate and approve: (i) adjusting the total amount of funds for the repurchase plan for the first phase of A-shares in 2025 from "not less than 15 billion yuan and not more than 30 billion yuan" to "not less than 30 billion yuan and not more than 60 billion yuan"; (ii) extending the repurchase implementation period to 12 months from the date of approval by the board; and (iii) changing the purpose of repurchasing shares from "for employee shareholding plans or equity incentive plans" to "for cancellation and reduction of registered capital." Apart from the changes mentioned above, other contents of the repurchase plan for the first phase of A-shares in 2025 remain unchanged. After the changes to the repurchase plan, the A-shares repurchased under the first phase of the 2025 repurchase plan will be cancelled, and the company's registered capital will be correspondingly reduced, which will be beneficial for increasing earnings per share, effectively enhancing the investment return for the company's shareholders, and boosting investor confidence.
