This filing signals a significant vote of confidence from MINISO's Chairman and CEO, Mr. Guofu Ye, who intends to invest at least HK$50 million (approximately US$6.4 million) of his own funds to increase his shareholding. This commitment is particularly notable as the company's stock is currently trading near its 52-week low, suggesting the CEO sees value at current levels. The planned purchases, which will commence after the Q1 2026 financial results blackout period, underscore his belief in the company's long-term prospects and strategic direction.
