Jiumaojiu International Holdings Limited, the Hong Kong–listed casual-dining group, released its monthly return for the period ended 31 August 2026. Key take-aways are as follows:

1. Share Capital Structure • Authorised share capital remained unchanged at 500.00 billion ordinary shares with a par value of USD 0.0000001 each, equivalent to USD 50,000. • Issued share capital stood flat at 1.34 billion ordinary shares. The company held no treasury shares at month-end, indicating that all issued shares continue to be outstanding.

2. Buy-back Activity • A total of 6.74 million ordinary shares were repurchased between 15 June and 10 July 2026 for future cancellation. • As at 31 August 2026, these repurchased shares had not yet been cancelled, explaining why the month-end issued share count was unchanged.

3. Share Option Scheme Movements • Under the 6 December 2019 Share Option Scheme, 0.93 million options lapsed during August, reducing outstanding options to 44.10 million. • No new shares were issued and no cash was raised through option exercises. The scheme still allows for up to 16.59 million additional shares to be issued, while total potential issuance across all outstanding and ungranted options amounts to 88.14 million shares.

4. Public Float Compliance • Jiumaojiu confirmed compliance with the Main Board’s minimum 25% public-float requirement as of 31 August 2026.

Overall, the August filing signals capital stability, with the company maintaining its authorised and issued share counts. The pending cancellation of repurchased shares and the sizeable option pool are the main variables to monitor for future changes in the share base.
