China CITIC Bank Corporation Limited announced that it will fully redeem its outstanding 350 million domestic preference shares, issued on 21 October 2016, on 26 October 2026. The securities, trading under the abbreviation “CITIC Excellent 1” and code 360025, carry a par value of RMB 100 per share, bringing the aggregate redemption size to RMB 35.00 billion.
The redemption price will equal the nominal value plus accrued dividends for the interest-bearing period from 26 October 2025 through 25 October 2026. Accrued dividends will be calculated using the formula: IA = B × i × t / 365, where B represents the aggregate par value of shares to be redeemed, i is the current-year dividend rate, and t is the actual number of interest-bearing days.
Payment of principal and accrued dividends will be executed on 26 October 2026. The redemption plan has been approved by the bank’s board of directors and received a “no-objection” reply from the National Financial Regulatory Administration.
