谢谢
我重新梳理了一下在美国上市的...

这是一篇解释。
大致意思是,回购是有时间限制的,规定是每个季度结束前的最后两周到季报发布之后的48小时内,是不可以内部交易的,回购也属于内部交易。
Under a separate SEC rule, companies can do a share repurchase program even during a blackout period. This separate rule (it's called Rule 10b5-1) permits trading during the blackout period providing the companies have set up a plan to buy back stock on a regular, defined basis. The price (minimum and maximum) and amount of shares that are being bought must be specified. If they do this, they are afforded a "safe harbor" against any insider trading accusations.
In other words, a company — and its executives — can buy back shares during a blackout period, providing they are doing so according to a predefined plan.
Unfortunately, the SEC does not mandate that companies disclose when they are using this rule, so it makes it difficult to determine who is doing what.
SEC有一个单独规定,如果公司有具体的回购计划,要求包括回购的价格(最低价和最高价)和回购数量,这样的话,在这段限制期间也是允许回购的。SEC没有要求公司必须公开这样的计划,(我理解是,这计划需要提交文件给SEC,但可以不公开)所以很难判断,公司有没有在限制期间回购。
所以,就聚美的情形,我理解是,聚美应该没有报告这样的计划,也就是没有在限制期回购。这次这么着急发半年报,显然有开始回购的目的的。
是的,在季度结束到公布季报期间属于重大消息未披露,所以期间不能回购股票,除非提前就预先设置安排好具体的回购机会,比如哪天以什么价格买多少。季报后48小时就可以重新开始回购了。
