COFCO Joycome Foods Limited (01610) saw its share price rise nearly 6% in early trading on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, reaching HKD 1.12 with a turnover of HKD 12.5483 million. The increase followed the company's announcement on September 24, 2026, that it had approved a plan to merge with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Zhuomao Limited, a British Virgin Islands company. Under the merger, COFCO Joycome will be the surviving entity, continuing as a Cayman Islands-registered company, while Zhuomao Limited will cease to exist as an independent legal entity. The company described the merger as an internal restructuring aimed at simplifying its corporate structure, reducing administrative and maintenance costs associated with maintaining a separate subsidiary, and improving management efficiency. The merger does not involve transferring any business or assets outside the group and will not change the group's ultimate economic interests in those assets.
