Royal Group Phnom Penh SEZ to double outstanding shares with 1-for-1 bonus issue

Royal Group Phnom Penh SEZ Plc (PPSP) has secured regulatory approval to execute a 1-for-1 bonus share issue, a move that will double the total number of shares held by eligible investors.

The Cambodia Securities Exchange-listed firm confirmed the approval for the additional listing on June 12, 2026. The decision follows shareholder authorisation obtained during an Extraordinary General Meeting held in December 2025.

Under the expansion plan, PPSP will issue over 71.5 million new voting shares. Existing shareholders will receive one bonus share for every share currently held. To qualify for the distribution, investors must be listed on the company’s share register by the record date of July 28.

The company has set July 27 as the ex-bonus date. From that point, the stock will trade without entitlement to the new shares, and the base price will be adjusted to half of the previous closing price to account for the increased supply. Investors who purchase stock on the ex-bonus date will not qualify for the issuance, while those who sell on that day remain eligible.

The new shares are scheduled for allotment on August 3, with trading on the exchange expected to begin the following day.

While the bonus issue does not alter the company’s total market value or the proportional ownership of individual shareholders, it serves to increase liquidity by raising the number of shares in circulation.
