On 25 February 2026, Great Eagle Holdings Limited (Stock Code: 41) announced a special dividend payable in the form of approximately 49.85 million share stapled units (SSUs) of Langham Hospitality Investments (Trust and LHI; Stock Code: 1270). The issuance ratio is planned at one SSU for every 15 shares held, rounded down to the nearest whole number. The distribution will draw partly on 30.42 million deferred SSUs, which are subject to regulatory approval, and partly on SSUs currently held by Great Eagle.

The record date to determine qualifying shareholders is set for 17 March 2026. The last day for dealing in shares with distribution entitlement is scheduled for 11 March 2026, with the share registers closed from 16 to 17 March 2026. SSU certificates are expected to be dispatched on or around 2 April 2026. Shareholders in certain jurisdictions, including Australia, Macau, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, the British Virgin Islands, and the UK, will be eligible to receive the distribution directly, while those in Canada, Malaysia, and the US will be designated as non-qualifying shareholders.

The dividend arrangement is related to manager fees for the six-month period ended 31 December 2025, which must be partly settled in SSUs without breaching public float requirements. Upon completion of the distribution, Great Eagle’s SSU holdings are projected to be 2.46 billion units, accounting for about 69.32% of the enlarged total. Great Eagle, along with the Trust and LHI, will maintain their existing business relationships following the transaction.
