Requirements for the number of shareholders of listed companies

Legal analysis: listed companies are joint-stock limited liability companies with the general characteristics of joint-stock limited companies. Therefore, before listing, listed companies need to meet the requirements of the number of promoters of joint stock limited companies, that is, the number of promoters is between 2 and 200, and there is no limit on the number of shareholders. In addition, according to the conditions for the establishment of a listed company, the number of shareholders with a face value of 1000 yuan or more is not less than 1000, so the number of shareholders can only meet the above requirements.

Legal basis: Article 76 of the Company Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) shall meet the following conditions for the establishment of a joint stock limited company: (1) the promoters meet the quorum; (2) It has the total amount of capital subscribed or paid-in by all promoters in accordance with the articles of association; (3) The issuance and offering of shares comply with the law; (4) The promoters shall formulate articles of association, which shall be adopted by the founding meeting; (5) Having a company name and establishing an organization meeting the requirements of a joint stock limited company; (6) Having a company domicile.
