Foshan Haitian Flavouring and Food announced on Monday, November 9, 2026, that it repurchased 434,400 A shares for about CNY 15.3465 million and 300,000 H shares for about HKD 7.9076 million. The figures were reported by Investing.com, citing Zhitong Finance.

The A shares are intended to be held as treasury stock for cancellation, a reduction in registered capital or future employee shareholding and incentive programs. The H shares are intended for cancellation. For investors, the announcement extends Haitian's ongoing capital-return program across both listings, while the allocation of repurchased shares points to different uses by market.

Demand and margins remain key issues

Recent third-quarter coverage has highlighted pressure on profitability despite broadly stable quarterly revenue. A report carried by Futunn.com said nine-month revenue rose 4.3 percent year over year, while third-quarter net profit attributable to owners fell 15.4 percent. The report also cited weaker core categories and lower gross margin as short-term pressure points.
