Guotai Haitong Securities amends articles reflecting capital change

Guotai Haitong Securities Co., Ltd. announced amendments to its Articles of Association, effective September 11, 2025, to reflect a reduction in registered capital. This change follows the cancellation of 782,867 Restricted A Shares on August 15, 2025, as authorized by the 2024 annual general meeting and the Restricted Share Incentive Scheme for A Shares. Consequently, the company's registered capital has decreased from RMB17,629,708,696 to RMB17,628,925,829.

The updated Article 26 now states that as of August 15, 2025, the total number of issued shares is 17,628,925,829, with A shares totaling 14,123,165,981 (80.11%) and H shares totaling 3,505,759,848 (19.89%). This adjustment was registered with the Shanghai Administration for Market Regulation, affirming the board's authority to make such amendments without further shareholder approval based on the 2024 annual general meeting resolution.
