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.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
