The London Stock Exchange’s RNS service reported that HSBC Holdings plc granted employees conditional awards on 9 October 2026 to subscribe for 274,529.87745 ordinary shares with a nominal value of US$0.50 each under the HSBC International Employee Share Purchase Plan. The purchase price is GBP 0, and the awards have a 2-year vesting period.
Of the total, 142,259.68627 shares relate to the London Stock Exchange listing and 132,270.19118 to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange listing. On the grant date, the ordinary shares closed at GBP 13.958 in London and HKD 145.20 in Hong Kong.
The plan has no performance targets or clawback provisions because it is intended for all employees. The company or a subsidiary will provide no financial assistance to grantees. A total of 1,102,270,815 shares remains available for issue under the plan’s limit.
