This announcement is made by APT Electronics Co., Ltd. (the “ Company ”, together with its subsidiaries, the “ Group ”) on a voluntary basis.
On April 20, 2026, the Company received the notices from the controlling shareholder group (the “ Controlling Shareholder Group ”)[1] and senior management (the “ Senior Management ”)[2] of the Company, stating that, based on their optimistic assessment of the Group’s future development prospects, confidence in the Group’s sustained, stable and healthy growth, and full recognition of the Group’s long-term investment value, the Controlling Shareholder Group and Senior Management intend to further increase their shareholdings in the Company’s H shares through open market transactions within three months from the date of this announcement (the “ Shareholding Increase Plan ”). The Shareholding Increase Plan by the Controlling Shareholder Group and Senior Management will be implemented on the basis that the Company maintains the minimum public float required under the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ Listing Rules ”), so as to ensure the Company’s continuing compliance with the relevant regulatory requirements.

As of the date of this announcement, the Controlling Shareholder Group is interested in an aggregate of 65,218,835 H shares and 171,316,739 domestic shares, representing approximately 44.04% of the total issued shares of the Company. In accordance with the intention of the Controlling Shareholder Group, upon implementation of the Shareholding Increase Plan, the total shareholding of the Controlling Shareholder Group in the Company is expected not to trigger a mandatory offer obligation under Rule 26 of the Code on Takeovers and Mergers with regard to shareholding interest of a controlling shareholder of a listed company in Hong Kong which lies between 30% and 50% during any 12-month period (i.e. will not increase its aggregate shareholding by more than 2% compared to its lowest shareholding level in the 12 months preceding the proposed acquisition). Based on the information available to the Company and to the best knowledge of the Board, it is expected that upon the completion of the Shareholding Increase Plan, the Company will continue to maintain the minimum public float percentage requirement under the Listing Rules.
In accordance with relevant regulations, the Company will continue to monitor the implementation of the Shareholding Increase Plan and perform its information disclosure obligation in a timely manner.
There are certain risks that the Shareholding Increase Plan may not be implemented, or may be partially not implemented, as a result of changes in the capital market or other unpredictable factors. The Company will perform its information disclosure obligation in a timely manner where the above risks occurred during the implementation of the Shareholding Increase Plan. Securities holders and potential investors of the Company are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the securities of the Company.
