Where an issuer has shares which have a nominal value of less than HK$0.25, then for the purpose of calculating the annual listing fee, the nominal value of each share shall be deemed to be HK$0.25.
Notes:
- For secondary listings on the Main Board, the annual fee is normally 25% of the fees listed above.
- For HDR issuers, the "nominal value of listed equity securities" refers to the nominal value of the shares represented by the DRs.
- In the case of listed issuers whose shares cease to have a nominal value subsequent to their date of listing (the “no-par event”), the nominal value per share that was used to calculate the annual listing fees immediately before the no-par event (the “notional nominal value per share”) shall be used to calculate the annual listing fees from the no-par event. If an issuer conducts a subdivision of shares after the no-par event, the notional nominal value per share shall be adjusted accordingly, subject to a minimum of HK$0.25 (e.g. if an issuer conducts a 2-for-1 subdivision, and the notional nominal value per share was HK$1, the nominal value per share used to calculate annual listing fees from the subdivision will be HK$0.50).
- In the case of issuers whose shares have no nominal value on their date of listing, the nominal value per share shall be deemed to be HK$0.25 for the purpose of calculating the annual listing fee.
