CHANGE OF FINANCIAL YEAR END DATE
This announcement is made by MINISO Group Holding Limited (the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”) pursuant to Rule 13.51(4) of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.
CHANGE OF FINANCIAL YEAR END DATE
The board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) announces that it has resolved to change the financial year end date of the Company from June 30 to December 31 with immediate effect. Accordingly, the next audited consolidated financial statements of the Company will be for the period of six months from July 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023.
REASON FOR THE CHANGE
The change is to: (i) improve the consistency between financial reporting and our business operation, as we formulate annual budgeting and assessment target on a calendar year basis, and (ii) align the Company’s financial reporting with that of the Company’s domestic peers to improve comparability on both a quarterly and an annual basis. To the best of its knowledge and belief, the Board does not foresee any material adverse impact on the Group resulting from the change of financial year end date of the Company and there is no other significant matter that needs to be brought to the attention of the shareholders of the Company in this regard.
