[Interim dividends for listed securities companies are gradually implemented] September 19th, after the disclosure of the 2026 interim report of listed securities companies, the progress of their mid-term dividends has become one of the topics that investors pay close attention to. Wind data shows that three listed securities companies, China Merchants Securities, Hongta Securities, and First Venture Capital, have completed the mid-term equity distribution this week, distributing a total of more than 1.7 billion yuan (tax included, the same below). Another 24 securities companies have announced mid-term dividend plans and plan to distribute more than 26 billion yuan in cash. From an investment perspective, as the capital market reform continues to advance, all main businesses of securities firms are expected to fully benefit. The current sector valuation is at a relatively low level, and the relatively solid fundamental performance has provided important support for the restoration of the valuation of securities firms. The investment value of leading securities firms in the industry with strong comprehensive strength and balanced business layout, as well as leading securities firms with differentiated competitive advantages in wealth management, institutional business and other fields, has attracted much attention.
