Beijing-Shanghai HSR (CNE100003RV9) approved a proposed CNY 0.789 cash dividend per 10 shares on October 21, 2026, equal to 57 percent of first-half net profit. According to CFI, the board tied the distribution to the 2026 interim results and the company's three-year dividend plan.
Dividend reflects CNY 6.77 billion profit
The payout proposal was based on CNY 6.77 billion in attributable net profit for the first half of 2026. The proposed distribution totals CNY 3.86 billion, according to CFI, and represents 57 percent of that profit.
The board meeting took place on October 21, 2026, after shareholders had authorized the board on June 30, 2026, to decide an interim distribution under the 2025-2027 shareholder return plan. The resolution requires no further shareholder vote, the announcement said.
What does the 57 percent payout mean?
The ratio places the distribution directly against reported earnings rather than a fixed cash promise. For investors, the key comparison is between the CNY 3.86 billion proposed payout and the CNY 6.77 billion first-half profit, leaving CNY 2.91 billion outside the interim distribution calculation.
Three dates show the earnings sequence
On June 30, 2026, the company reported CNY 6.77 billion in first-half net profit, according to CFI. On October 16, 2026, finanzen.at cited a CNY 12.28 billion revenue estimate for the coming quarter. On October 21, 2026, the board approved the CNY 0.789 interim dividend proposal, according to CFI.
Results date sets the next test
The next scheduled date is October 31, 2026, when Beijing-Shanghai HSR is expected to present its latest quarterly results, according to finanzen.at. The same estimate points to CNY 0.080 earnings per share and CNY 12.28 billion revenue for the quarter, compared with CNY 11.79 billion revenue in the prior-year quarter.
