Under the deal, Yodoko will transfer a portion of its shares valued at 232,750,000 yuan, while Sysco Holdings will transfer its remaining shares. Post-sale, Yodoko's shareholding percentage will decrease from 40.6% to 25%, and Sysco Holdings' holding will drop entirely. The transaction is expected to be completed in early August 2026. This divestiture will result in YSS being delisted from Yodoko’s consolidated subsidiaries. As previously disclosed on May 11, 2026, Yodoko anticipates recognizing gains from the disposal of related-party equity interests in its fiscal year ending March 2027, which have been incorporated into its earnings forecast.
