FTSE 100: Index falls as earnings results weigh; pound below $1.33, Bodycote soars
HONG KONG - Air China (OTC:AIRYY) Limited, the flag carrier of the People’s Republic of China, has announced the adoption of electronic dissemination for all future corporate communications to its shareholders, in compliance with the updated rules of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. The move aligns with the paperless listing regime that came into effect on December 31, 2023.
The company, listed under stock code 00753, will no longer provide printed copies of documents such as directors’ reports, annual accounts, interim reports, notices of meetings, listing documents, circulars, and proxy forms. Instead, both English and Chinese versions will be accessible on Air China’s official website and the HKEXnews website.
Shareholders are encouraged to provide their email addresses by using a personalized QR code found on a reply form sent by the company or by returning the signed form to Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited. This will ensure they receive timely notifications about the publication of corporate communications.
In the event that Air China does not receive a functional email address from a shareholder, the company will send actionable corporate communications in printed form. It is the shareholder’s responsibility to provide a working email address. Once an email address is provided, if no "non-delivery message" is received by the company, it will be deemed compliant with the Listing Rules.
Shareholders preferring printed copies can request them by completing the reply form or by sending an email to the specified address by Air China. This preference will be valid for one year from the date of receipt and will expire thereafter.
The transition to electronic communications is part of a broader trend among companies to increase efficiency and reduce environmental impact. This change is based on a press release statement from Air China.
