The company bought over 2 million Class A ordinary shares at HKD 89–92 per share under an August mandate. Total issued shares remained unchanged at ~2.2 billion.

An announcement from Baidu ( (BIDU) ) is now available.
Baidu filed a Form 6-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 11, 2026, reporting a Next Day Disclosure Return submitted to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on September 10, 2026, covering changes in its Class A ordinary shares. The filing confirms Baidu’s ongoing compliance with cross-border listing obligations and highlights its active use of Hong Kong disclosure mechanisms to update investors on equity movements.
The disclosure shows that Baidu’s total issued Class A ordinary shares stood unchanged at 2,209,541,178 as of the closing balance on September 10, 2026, but details a series of on-market share repurchases for cancellation from September 7 to 10, 2026, totaling more than 2 million shares at prices around HKD 89–92 per share. These buybacks, conducted under a repurchase mandate approved on August 26, 2026 and representing about 0.08% of shares as of that mandate date, indicate Baidu’s continued use of repurchases as a capital management tool, while a moratorium on new share issues or treasury share sales runs through October 10, 2026, constraining near-term equity issuance and signaling a focus on shareholder value consolidation rather than dilution.

Spark’s Take on BIDU Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, BIDU is a Neutral.
Overall score is held down primarily by weakening financial performance (near-breakeven TTM profitability and negative free cash flow) and bearish technical momentum (below key moving averages with negative MACD). Valuation is also a major drag due to an extremely high P/E. The latest earnings call provides a partial offset, highlighting strong AI Cloud/GPU Cloud growth and improving cloud margins, but near-term revenue and advertising headwinds remain.
