Miniso CEO signals confidence with planned $6.4m share purchase

It will include ADSs and/or Hong Kong-listed ordinary shares.

MINISO Group has announced that Chairman and CEO Guofu Ye plans to increase his stake in the company by at least $6.4m (HK$50m) within the next 12 months.

The purchases will include American Depositary Shares (ADSs) and/or Hong Kong-listed ordinary shares, and will be made through open market or private transactions using Ye’s personal funds.

Ye said the move reflects confidence in MINISO’s strategy and long-term growth, citing the company’s recent performance and execution.

The company noted that he is currently under trading blackout restrictions due to the pending release of MINISO’s Q1 2026 results. He will begin buying shares during the next open trading window after the results are announced, in compliance with insider trading rules.

The timing, price, and volume of purchases will depend on market conditions and regulatory requirements.

As of the announcement, Ye owns 789,541,061 shares, or about 63.7% of MINISO’s outstanding shares, excluding treasury shares.
