GDS Holdings Ltd director Ye Judy Qing reported an open-market sale of 37,394 American Depositary Shares (ADSs) of GDS. The transaction occurred on June 2, 2026 at an average price of $36.2118 per ADS. After this sale, the filing shows zero ADSs held directly. A footnote states that each ADS represents eight Class A ordinary shares, so the transaction reduced her direct economic exposure to the company’s equity represented by these ADSs to none.
GDS Holdings Limited has called its 2026 annual general meeting for June 25, 2026 in Shanghai. Shareholders of ordinary shares and Series A and B convertible preferred shares of record on June 4, 2026 can vote directly, while ADS holders must instruct JPMorgan as depositary.
Key agenda items include electing or re-electing three Class I directors, extending the effectiveness of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan by three years to August 25, 2029, and confirming KPMG Huazhen LLP as independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Shareholders are also being asked to authorize the board, for 12 months from the meeting date, to allot or issue ordinary shares or other equity or equity‑linked securities up to 30% of the company’s issued share capital, excluding shares issued on option or warrant exercises or on certain bond conversions by Ping An Insurance and STT. A final proposal would authorize directors and officers to take actions needed to implement the approved resolutions.

GDS Holdings Ltd director Chen Kathy Hua has filed an initial Form 3 reporting her ownership in the company’s American Depositary Shares (ADS). She holds 50,000 ADS directly. Each ADS represents eight Class A ordinary shares, so this position reflects a sizable underlying equity stake.
In addition to the common equity, she reports three outstanding share option positions described as obligations to sell ADS. These options cover 10,000 ADS at an exercise price of $60.00 per ADS expiring on September 18, 2026, 20,000 ADS at $50.00 per ADS expiring on June 18, 2026, and 20,000 ADS at $47.00 per ADS also expiring on June 18, 2026. The footnotes state these options can be exercised early if the ADS price is above the exercise price, or closed if she chooses to buy back the share options.
