On 30 November 2017, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a capital increment agreement with
Yimidida, pursuant to which the Group, as one of the investors, agreed to subscribe for the shares newly issued by
Yimidida at a consideration of RMB130.00 million in cash. Yimidida is principally engaged in the operation of the lessthan-truckload freight network and was jointly established by several regional leading less-than-truckload logistics
enterprises. Yimidida, with the mode of direct operation in core areas and regional franchise, unified the branding,
systems, clearing, services and management standards of its partners along the whole ecological chain, and rapidly
established the country-wide less-than-truckload freight franchise network. Yimidida is an independent third party of
the Group.
On 30 July 2021, the Board of Yimidida approved the overall merger and acquisition reorganization of Yimidida by
J&T Express. In January 2022, the Group completed the relevant merger and acquisition reorganization and indirectly
held 1,735,266 shares of series C preferred shares in J&T Express through Yimeter.
In 2023, J&T Express successfully completed the round D of equity financing. The Group indirectly acquired 928,605
new preferred shares of J&T Express, with the number of shares indirectly held amounted to 2,663,871 in total. The
Group indirectly held 13,319,355 class B ordinary shares of J&T Express after a share split prior to the listing and
issuance of the shares and the official listing of J&T Express on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong on 27 October
2023. The stock code is 1519.HK.
On 4 March 2024, Yimeter distributed its class B ordinary shares of J&T Express to the Group by way of a dividend
in specie and at the same time repurchased all of the shares of Yimeter held by the Group at par value. As at 30 June
2026, the Group directly held 6,484,555 class B ordinary shares of J&T Express, representing approximately 0.07%
of its issued share capital. The Company expects that with its strengths in overseas business deployment, J&T
Express will further strengthen and optimize its network coverage, improve its service quality and enhance its brand
image, as well as improve its financial performance rapidly through economies of scale.
