Fidelity China Special Situations PLC repurchased and cancelled 113,117 ordinary shares on 11 December 2025 at 305.0 GBp per share; following the cancellation the company reports issued share capital of 562,300,842, total shares held in treasury of 85,629,548 and total voting rights of 476,671,294. The transaction is small (about 0.02% of issued capital) and marginally reduces the share base and the voting-rights denominator used for FCA disclosure thresholds; treasury shares carry no voting rights.
Fidelity China Special Situations PLC repurchased and cancelled 113,117 ordinary shares on 11 December 2025 at an average (and high/low) price of 305.0 GBp per share, as disclosed by the company secretary. The notice states the shares were cancelled, and separately reports issued share capital of 562,300,842, total shares held in treasury of 85,629,548, and total voting rights of 476,671,294. The repurchase equals roughly 0.02% of issued share capital (113,117/562,300,842), so the mechanical reduction in share count and voting-rights denominator is immaterial to per-share metrics in isolation. The RNS highlights that treasury shares attract no voting rights and that the published total voting rights should be used for FCA disclosure calculations. Market signals supplied with the RNS are mildly positive with a low market-impact score, which is consistent with a routine, small-scale capital return rather than a material corporate-action. Investors should therefore view this as a token buyback that signals willingness to return capital but does not, by itself, alter valuation, ownership or control; monitoring for any escalation of buyback activity is warranted.
