Guotai Junan International Holdings Ltd is currently the subject of a privatisation by way of scheme of arrangement. In accordance with Rule 22 of the Hong Kong Code on Takeovers and Mergers, BNP Paribas Financial Markets—classified as a Class (1) associate acting in concert with the Offeror—filed a disclosure of dealings in the company’s shares.

On 8 September 2026, BNP Paribas Financial Markets purchased 533,000 Guotai Junan International shares at an average price of HKD 2.8848 per share. Following the transaction, its resultant shareholding balance in the company stood at zero, representing 0.0000% of the issued share capital. The trades were executed for BNP Paribas Financial Markets’ own account, and the entity is ultimately owned by BNP Paribas.

The disclosure fulfils regulatory requirements during the ongoing privatisation process and provides transparency on dealings by parties acting in concert with the Offeror.
