Hong Leong Asia’s China Yuchai greenlights US$40m share buyback plan

The plan will be funded through operating cash flow and existing cash balance.

Hong Leong Asia’s NYSE-listed subsidiary, China Yuchai, has approved a share buyback plan that could be worth up to US$40m.

The plan, approved by the firm’s board of directors on 7 June, allows China Yuchai to repurchase its ordinary shares of as much as US$40m or up to four million shares, whichever occurs earlier.

The firm plans to use operating cash flow and existing cash balance to fund the buyback program.

China Yuchai manufactures, assembles and sells light- to heavy-duty engines for trucks, buses, passenger vehicles, construction equipment, as well as marine and agriculture applications in China.

Its parent firm, Singapore-based Hong Leong Asia, saw its attributable net profit climb 19%YoY to $64.9m in FY23.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
