Effectively improve the quality of the company and help the development of the capital market

The new "Nine Articles" have clearly defined the medium- and long-term development goals of the mainland's capital market. In the next five years, an overall framework for the high-quality development of the capital market will be basically formed. At that time, the institutional mechanism of investor protection will be more perfect, the quality and structure of listed companies will be significantly optimized, and the formation of a good ecology of the capital market will be accelerated.

"In the context of the current recovery of the hotel industry, the company will anchor its strategic goals, promote digital transformation and ESG comprehensive practice, solidly cultivate its internal strength, enhance its investment value, and work with regulators and market parties to promote the high-quality development of the capital market." ”

The securities market is an important part of the capital market, and listed companies, as one of the main bodies of the securities market, should also strictly regulate their own behavior. The new "National Nine Articles" point out that it is necessary to strictly rectify violations of laws and regulations in key areas such as financial fraud and capital occupation, and urge listed companies to improve their internal control systems.

Milkyway said that the company has always strictly implemented regulatory requirements, the company has an internal audit supervision department, and an external accounting firm is hired to conduct audits to strictly prevent possible financial fraud and fraud, and to ensure the health and authenticity of the company's financial data.

Increase cash dividends and continue to reward investors

The new "National Nine Articles" strengthen the supervision of cash dividends of listed companies, restrict the reduction of major shareholders and implement risk warnings for companies that have not paid dividends for many years or have a low dividend ratio. At the same time, enhance the stability, sustainability and predictability of dividends, and promote multiple dividends a year, pre-dividends, and dividends before the Spring Festival.

This policy has been echoed by Shanghai companies. The relevant person in charge of Goldstone Resources said that the new "National Nine Articles" emphasize the need to more effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of small and medium-sized investors, and raise the concept of "building an investor-oriented capital market" to a new height, "the company is both deeply encouraged and feels greater responsibility".

According to reports, since the listing of Goldstone Resources, the annual cash dividends, multiple repurchases and increased holdings, the cumulative amount has been several times the amount of IPO financing, and this year the cash dividend ratio will be increased from about 30% to more than 50% per year. In the next step, the company will also formulate a feasible and steadily promoted quality and efficiency improvement plan from the dimensions of main business, technological innovation, and investor returns, so that investors can not only enjoy the growth dividend brought by the company's rapid growth, but also the "stable happiness" from the dividend return.

The relevant person in charge of Jin Jiang Hotel revealed that since 2000, the company's dividend rate has continued to remain above 50%.
