A/H dual listing - do not apply one price to all shares. On 29 Aug 2026 the A line was CNY55.85 (~USD7.83) and the H line HKD56.90 (~USD7.30), a ~7% A premium; market cap = 10.66bn x A price + 7.45bn x H price. Primary/home listing is Shanghai; ticker 2318 is the H-share line. Widely quoted older totals of 18,280,241,410 are stale - the current count is 18,107,641,995 and did not move in H1 2026. A shares in Shanghai and H shares in Hong Kong trade at a spread, so each class is priced on its own line.

Share counts move on a filing cadence, prices move continuously — so this figure is exact only as of the two dates above, and we publish both rather than a single undated number. This company is quoted here through a depositary receipt (PNGAY), where one receipt represents 2 ordinary shares; the price is put on an ordinary-share basis before it meets the share count.
