WeRide ( (WRD) ) has shared an announcement.

On March 24, 2026, WeRide Inc. reported to U.S. regulators that it had filed a Next Day Disclosure Return in Hong Kong detailing a repurchase of its Class A ordinary shares. The filing confirms the company’s compliance with both SEC foreign issuer requirements and Hong Kong listing rules while documenting changes in its issued and treasury share balances.

According to the Hong Kong disclosure, WeRide repurchased 213,100 Class A WVR shares on March 24, 2026, on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong at a volume‑weighted average price of about HK$17.54 per share. The buyback, which represents roughly 0.022% of its issued share capital, shifts these shares into treasury and modestly tightens the free float, signaling active capital management under a repurchase mandate approved on March 13, 2026.
