CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate small and mid-sized companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration.

Given that the companies listed on GEM are generally small and mid-sized companies, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

To the Shareholders

Dear Sir or Madam,

(1) PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF UNSECURED ZERO COUPON RATE CONVERTIBLE BONDS IN THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF HK$19 MILLION DUE 2025; AND

(2) NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

(I) INTRODUCTION

References are made to the announcements made by the Company dated 7 December 2021, 28 December 2021, 18 February 2022, 14 March 2022 and 17 March 2022 and the circular of the Company dated 21 January 2022 (the “2022 Circular”) regarding the subscription of the Convertible Bonds by Mr. Chiau. Reference is also made to the joint announcement jointly issued by the Company and Mr. Chiau dated 12 February 2026.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As stated in the 2022 Circular, back on 22 February 2010, the Company entered into the service agreement (the “Service Agreement”) with Mr. Chiau pursuant to which the Company agreed to appoint Mr. Chiau as an executive director of the Company and Mr. Chiau accepted the appointment with prescribed duties for an initial term of five years from the commencement date, being 1 June 2010. Upon expiry of the initial term of the Service Agreement, the Company renewed Mr. Chiau’s appointment and as at the Latest Practicable Date of the 2022 Circular, Mr. Chiau remained a controlling Shareholder of the Company and an executive Director.

As part of the remuneration contemplated under the Service Agreement, the Company has pursuant to the terms thereof issued the convertible bonds with a conversion period of 10 years from the issue date and an aggregate principal amount of HK$45 million to Mr. Chiau in batches. The first batch of the convertible bonds in the principal amount of HK$25 million was issued to Mr. Chiau on 1 June 2010 (the “Commencement Date”) and the remaining HK$20 million were issued to Mr. Chiau in four batches with HK$5 million each annually on the anniversary of the date of the Commencement Date. The first batch of the convertible bonds in the principal amount of HK$25 million were converted by Mr. Chiau or redeemed by the Company with details as follows:

Date Amount (HK$) Event
12 June 2015 12,250,000 Converted into ordinary shares of the Company
10 July 2015 2,750,000 Converted into ordinary shares of the Company
2 June 2020 10,000,000 Redeemed by the Company

The second batch of the convertible bonds in the principal amount of HK$5 million became mature on 1 June 2021. Pursuant to the Undertaking (as defined below), Mr. Chiau has undertaken to extend the deadline for repayment of such principal amount for 1 year from 1 June 2021 to 1 June 2022. Since the conversion rights attached thereto has been expired upon the original maturity date, hence the second batch of the convertible bonds became the straight bonds (the straight bonds of the Company in the outstanding principal amount of HK$5,000,000 held by Mr. Chiau) of the Company.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As at the date of the 2022 Circular, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Previous Convertible Bonds (meaning the previous convertible bonds of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of HK$15,000,000 held by Mr. Chiau) is HK$15 million which were the third, fourth and fifth batches of the convertible bonds issued to Mr. Chiau pursuant to the Service Agreement and the breakdown thereof are as follows:

| Principal amount | Maturity Date (Note) | Conversion Price
(as adjusted pursuant to the terms thereof)
of the Previous CBs |
| --- | --- | --- |
| HK$5 million | 1 June 2022 | HK$0.53 |
| HK$5 million | 1 June 2023 | HK$0.53 |
| HK$5 million | 1 June 2024 | HK$0.53 |

Note: pursuant to the terms of the previous convertible bonds of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of HK$15,000,000 held by Mr. Chiau (the “Previous CBs”), the original maturity dates of the 3 tranches of the Previous CBs were 1 June 2022, 1 June 2023 and 1 June 2024 respectively. On 31 March 2020, in light of the then financial condition of the Company and as an intention to support the long term operation of the Company, Mr. Chiau has unilaterally given an undertaking in favour of the Company (the “Undertaking”) pursuant to which he has undertaken to extend the repayment date of such Previous CBs for 1 year from their respective original maturity dates. As such, the deadline for the Company to repay the Previous CBs were considered as 1 June 2023, 1 June 2024 and 1 June 2025 respectively.

For the reasons as disclosed in the paragraph headed “Reasons for the Subscription” below, the Company and the Subscriber have been negotiating for the settlement of the Existing Bonds.

On 7 December 2021 (after trading hours), the Company entered into the subscription and settlement agreement (the “Subscription and Settlement Agreement”) with the Mr. Chiau, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and the Mr. Chiau agreed to subscribe for or procure the subscription by its nominee(s) of the Convertible Bonds in principal amount of HK$19 million to be issued by the Company, the consideration of which shall be set-off against the outstanding principal amount of the Previous Bonds (meaning the previous convertible bonds of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of HK$15,000,000 held by Mr. Chiau and the straight bonds of the Company in the outstanding principal amount of HK$5,000,000 held by Mr. Chiau) upon Subscription (meaning the subscription of the Convertible Bonds in the principal amount of HK$19,000,000 by the Subscriber pursuant to the terms of the Subscription and Settlement Agreement). The Convertible Bonds were therefore issued by the Company to Mr. Chiau upon completion of the Subscription and Settlement Agreement, which is the conditional subscription and settlement agreement dated 7 December 2021 (as supplemented by a supplemental agreement dated 28 December 2021) and entered into between the Company and the Subscriber in relation to the Subscription.

On 17 March 2022, the Company issued the Convertible Bonds in the principal amount of HK$19 million to Mr. Chiau pursuant to the Subscription and Settlement Agreement dated 7 December 2021.

According to the terms of the Convertible Bonds, the holder(s) of the Convertible Bonds will have the right to convert the whole or part of the principal amount of the Convertible Bonds into Conversion Shares from the date of the issue of the Convertible Bonds up to the day immediately prior to the maturity date, being 31 December 2025, provided that at the time a conversion notice is issued, (i) any conversion of the Convertible Bonds does not trigger a mandatory offer obligation under Rule 26.1 of the Takeovers Code or such mandatory offer obligation has been waived on the part of the holder(s) of the Convertible Bonds which exercised the conversion rights, whether or not such mandatory offer obligation is triggered by the fact that the number of Conversion Shares to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of the conversion rights attaching to the Convertible Bonds (if applicable, including any Shares acquired by the parties acting in concert with the holder(s) of the Convertible Bonds); and (ii) the public float of the Shares shall not be less than 25% (or any given percentage as required by the GEM Listing Rules for the minimum percentage of Shares being held by the public as per the then Rule 11.23 (the current Rule 17.37B) of the GEM Listing Rules) of the issued Shares of the Company at the time in compliance with the GEM Listing Rules.

In early November 2025, in light of the fact that the Convertible Bonds shall mature by 31 December 2025 but the Company lacks sufficient financial resources to redeem the same, the Company has made request to Mr. Chiau, holder of the Convertible Bonds, seeking for Mr. Chiau's consent to the Conversion and proposing to amend the terms and conditions of the Convertible Bonds to uplift the restriction restricting the Subscriber to exercise the conversion rights attaching to the Convertible Bonds where such exercise may trigger an obligation for a mandatory general offer under the Takeovers Code.

On 26 November 2025, the Company received from Mr. Chiau of his agreement to the Conversion subject to the Proposed Amendment and subject to the fulfilment of the Conditions set out in the paragraph headed "Conditions to the Proposed Amendments" below.

On 24 December 2025, Mr. Chiau has executed and delivered a conditional conversion notice to the Company, pursuant to which Mr. Chiau would like to exercise his Conversion Rights subject to the fulfilment of the Conditions. Mr. Chiau will be exercising his Conversion Rights in full.

The long stop date for the fulfilment of the conditions precedent above is 31 May 2026, or such other date as the parties may agree in writing. If the condition precedents are not met prior to the long stop date, the Deed of Amendment will cease to have effect and the Conversion will not materialize, and the Convertible Bonds will become a straight bond repayable on 31 December 2025, the Company will have the obligation to settle the liability

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

thereunder. As the Company lacks the financial resources for settlement of the liability and the Company does not foresee a material change to its cash flow position in the near future, therefore the Company may seek an extension of the payment date or other settlement plans to be negotiated between Mr. Chiau and the Company to settle the Convertible Bonds should the Conversion fall through.

(IV) REASONS FOR THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS

As disclosed in the circular of the Company dated 21 January 2022, the holder(s) of the Convertible Bonds will have the right to convert the whole or part of the principal amount of the Convertible Bonds into Conversion Shares from the date of the issue of the Convertible Bonds provided that any conversion of the Convertible Bonds does not trigger a mandatory offer obligation under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code or the Executive granting the waiver under Note 1 to the Notes on Dispensations from Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code of the obligation (which is subject to, among others, the approval from 75% of the Independent Shareholders) on the part of the holder(s) of the Convertible Bonds which exercised the conversion rights, whether or not such mandatory offer obligation is triggered off by the fact that the number of Conversion Shares to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of the conversion rights attaching to the Convertible Bonds.

In early November 2025, in light of the fact that the Convertible Bonds shall mature by 31 December 2025 but the Company lacks sufficient financial resources to redeem the same, the Company has made request to Mr. Chiau, holder of the Convertible Bonds, seeking for Mr. Chiau's consent to the Conversion, and Mr. Chiau has expressed his intention to cooperate with the Company's request to exercise the conversion right attaching to the Convertible Bonds. However, given that Mr. Chiau and the Offeror Concert Parties holds approximately 39.47% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date, the intended exercise of the conversion right attaching to the Convertible Bonds for the issue and allotment of 69,090,909 Shares will result in an increase in the shareholdings of Mr. Chiau and the Offeror Concert Parties, aggregating to approximately 62.97%, which will trigger a mandatory offer obligation under Rule 26.1 of the Takeovers Code, such intended conversion is restricted under the Convertible Bonds. Moreover, as at the Latest Practicable Date, the total number of outstanding Share Options of the Company is 6,121,708 of which Mr. Chiau is holding 102,644 Share Options which entitles him to exercise and subscribe for 102,644 Shares and Ms. Chow is holding 956,644 Share Options which entitles her to exercise and subscribe for 956,644 Shares. Assuming all the outstanding Share Options other than those held by Mr. Chiau and Ms. Chow are exercised upon the Conversion, the Offeror and the Offeror Concert Parties will hold 112,060,385 Shares, representing approximately 61.23% of the total issued share capital of the Company upon the Conversion taking place.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Board is of the view that the Proposed Amendments (and the subsequent Conversion) will be beneficial to the Company and the Shareholders as a whole for the following reasons:

(i) While the cash and cash equivalents of the Group was approximately HK$36.5 million as at 30 September 2025, such cash balance is earmarked for fulfilling the obligations of the strategic cooperation framework agreement and for daily operations. If the Convertible Bonds are redeemed in full when fall due on the maturity date, being 31 December 2025, the reduction in cash and cash equivalents of the Group will hamper the Group's ability to implement the aforementioned strategic cooperation and consequently, affect its financial performance.

The cash and cash equivalents of the Group was approximately HK$32.8 million as at 31 December 2025, such cash balance mainly related to initial production cost of RMB75,000,000 prepaid by a customer Beijing iQIYI Technology Co., Ltd. (北京爱奇藝科技有限公司) (“Beijing iQIYI”) to the Group, which was classified as other payables and accruals of the Group as at 30 September 2025, pursuant to strategic cooperation framework agreement entered into among Beijing iQIYI, the Group and Zhouling Culture & Media (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (宙靈文化傳媒(上海)有限公司) (“Zhouling”), on 31 August 2024 to stipulate the strategic cooperation effective from 31 August 2024 to 31 July 2029. These prepayments from Beijing iQIYI were or will be then used by Zhouling to produce TV dramas. The sum of RMB75,000,000 will be used for content pre-production needed to fulfill the contractual requirement, investment into new business development involving AI content generation, and normal course of operations of the Group.

On 19 September 2025, the Company has entered into a definitive agreement with Beijing iQIYI and Zhouling. Up to the date of this circular, one definitive agreement has been entered into for the first project. The script writing of a TV series has commenced and shooting will commence and the product will be delivered in the lower half of 2026. The preparation work of producing another TV series and two more productions are also expected to commence in the second half of 2026 and in 2027 respectively. The production cost deductible from the prepaid production cost received by the Company (i.e. from the sum of RMB75,000,000) is around HK$19 million for each of the four works above, and the production cost of the aforesaid 2 TV series (i.e. HK$38 million in total based on HK$19 million each in average) and the remaining prepaid production cost (HK$38 million in total based on HK$19 million each in average) for the other 2 productions is expected to be paid to third party for production by the end of 2026 and 2027 respectively.

  • 18 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The aforementioned cash and cash equivalents of the Group of approximately HK$32.8 million would be used in the forthcoming 3 to 6 months as follows:

  1. approximately HK$12 million will be used as the Group's operating expenses, which includes the (1) salaries, consultants' and directors' fees, (2) office rental fees, (3) legal and professional fees (including audit, ESG, trademark registration etc.), (4) general expense and disbursement for the cinema and intellectual property licensing and management business;
  2. approximately HK$10 million will be used for the first production project which is in script development and production stage;
  3. approximately HK$5 million will be used for project promotion and relevant expenses; and
  4. the balance of approximately HK$5.8 million will be kept as the Group's reserve for satisfying any unforeseen expenditures in the course of the projects development.

Therefore, due to the cash position of the Group, the Company does not have sufficient internal cash resources to redeem the Convertible Bonds in full.

As disclosed in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025 and the 2025/26 Interim Report, the Group recorded net loss of approximately HK$23.3 million for the year ended 31 March 2025 and approximately HK$13.9 million for the six months ended 30 September 2025, and net liabilities of approximately HK$45.2 million as at 30 September 2025. In light of the aforesaid net loss and tight liquidity position of the Group, it is in the interest of the Group to retain its internal cash resources for the business operation of the Group, rather than for redemption of the Convertible Bonds.

The Company had considered other debt/equity fundraising alternatives, including debt financing, equity financing and realisation of investment properties of the Group. However, the Company considered that the terms and cost-effectiveness of such alternative fundraising methods are unlikely to be as favorable as converting the Convertible Bonds into Conversion Shares in full.

In assessing the options for debt financing or bank borrowings, the Company has considered the following factors: (i) additional bank borrowings will inevitably incur finance costs, deteriorate the gearing level of the Group and further compromise the Group's financial position; (ii) securing new bank facilities could be difficult due to the recent financial performance of the Group as stated under "(IV) Reasons for the Proposed Amendments" of this Circular; (iii) bank loans typically require asset pledges or collateral, which would impose


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

limitation on the Group's operational flexibility; and (iv) the lengthy procedure for due diligence, risk assessments and negotiation with banks and/or lenders, and therefore decided not to conduct further debt financing or bank borrowings.

With respect to other equity financing methods such as rights issue or open offer, considering rights issue or open offer generally entail additional finance cost such as underwriting or placing commission or other professional fees, which is less cost-effective to the Group in view of its financial position, the terms and cost-effectiveness of such equity fundraising methods are unlikely to be as favorable as converting the Convertible Bonds into Conversion Shares in full.

The Company also has no material assets which can be disposed of to finance the redemption of the Convertible Bonds. As per the 2025/26 Interim Report of the Company, the total assets of the Group amounted to approximately HK$75.8 million as at 30 September 2025, of which (i) approximately HK$36.5 million was cash and cash equivalents which would have to be retained for the Group's operation or production as discussed above, (ii) approximately HK$22.8 million was other receivables, deposits and prepayments which were operation-related items and thus were difficult to be realised into cash for other uses, and (iii) approximately HK$13.3 million were financial assets at fair value through profit or loss which were not sufficient to cover the redemption amount of HK$19 million even disposed of.

Apart from Conversion, the Company has considered other ways to redeem the Convertible Bonds. However, as mentioned above, there is limited free cash of the Company to redeem the Convertible Bonds, and the Company have approached three (3) securities firms for possibility of their acting as placing agent or underwriter of the Company for fund raising but no favorable response was received.

Although the Conversion will cause a material dilution effect and will trigger the mandatory general offer, the Company considers it is still fair and reasonable, as other debt financing arrangement will cause increase to the gearing ratio and hence is not beneficial to maintain the financial health of the Company.

(iii) The Company's debt-to-asset ratio for the six months ended 30 September 2025 was approximately 1.60 and is expected to be lowered to approximately 1.35 after the Conversion.

The improved liquidity position of the Group would enable the Company to be more persuasive in debt financing discussions in order to obtain additional funds and meet the funding needs of the Company after the completion of the Conversion; and

(iv) Mr. Chiau may be more encouraged to even more actively participate in the operational turnaround of the Company with greater shareholdings in the Company after the Conversion. The Independent Shareholders are also given the opportunity to witness and benefit from the future developments of the Company together with Mr. Chiau.

To the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders of Bingo Group Holdings Limited

Dear Sir/Madam,

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF UNSECURED ZERO COUPON RATE CONVERTIBLE BONDS IN THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF HK$19 MILLION DUE 2025

INTRODUCTION

We refer to our appointment as the Independent Financial Adviser to advise the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Proposed Amendments, particulars of which are set out in the section headed "Letter from the Board" (the "Letter from the Board") contained in the circular of the Company dated 12 May 2026 (the "Circular"), of which this letter forms part. Capitalised terms used in this letter shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Circular unless the context requires otherwise.

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 12 February 2026 relating to, among others, the Proposed Amendments. As stated in the such announcement and the Letter from the Board, in early November 2025, in light of the fact that the Convertible Bonds shall mature by 31 December 2025 but the Company lacks sufficient financial resources to redeem the same, the Company has made request to Mr. Chiau seeking for his consent to the Conversion and proposing the Proposed Amendments to amend the terms and conditions of the Convertible Bonds to uplift the restriction restricting the Subscriber to exercise the conversion rights attaching to the Convertible Bonds where such exercise may trigger an obligation for a mandatory general offer under the Takeovers Code (the "Conversion Restriction"). Mr. Chiau has agreed with the Proposed Amendments and, on 24 December 2025, has executed and delivered a conditional conversion notice to the Company, pursuant to which Mr. Chiau would like to exercise his Conversion Rights subject to the fulfillment of the Conditions. As stated in the Letter from the Board, Mr. Chiau intends to exercise the


LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Convertible Bonds in full. On 12 February 2026, the Company and the Subscriber entered into the Deed of Amendment. Save as the Proposed Amendments, the principal terms of the Convertible Bonds remain unchanged.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Mr. Chiau is a deemed substantial Shareholder and an executive Director and therefore is a connected person to the Company pursuant to Chapter 20 of the GEM Listing Rules. The Proposed Amendments are subject to, among others, the approval by the Independent Shareholders at the EGM. As Mr. Chiau is a party to the Deed of Amendment, an executive Director and a deemed substantial Shareholder and also the brother of Ms. Chow, (i) both Ms. Chow and Mr. Chiau have abstained from voting on the relevant Board resolutions; and (ii) Mr. Chiau, Beglobal and Golden Treasure and Mr. Chiau's associates (Sinostar, Treasure Offshore, Ms. Chow), together holding a total of 42,969,476 Shares and representing 39.47% of the total issued Shares, will abstain from voting with respect to the relevant resolution at the EGM.

The Independent Board Committee has been established to advise the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Proposed Amendments and the transactions contemplated thereunder and how to vote for the relevant resolutions to be proposed at the EGM. As the Independent Financial Adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders, our role is to give independent opinion to the Independent Board Committee for it to advise the Independent Shareholders in this regard.

BASIS OF OUR OPINION

We have not, however, carried out any independent verification of the information provided by the Company, the Directors and/or the management of the Group, nor have we conducted any independent investigation into the business, financial conditions and affairs of the Group, the counter-party to the Proposed Amendments, or any of its respective subsidiaries, controlled entities, jointly controlled entities or associates. We consider that we have performed our duties with impartiality and independence from the Company.

The Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the GEM Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief, the information contained in the Circular is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement in the Circular misleading.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, we were not aware of any relationships between us and, nor any interests held by us in, the Company or the counter-party to the Proposed Amendments that could reasonably be regarded as hindrance to our independence as defined under Rule 17.96 of the GEM Listing Rules to act as the Independent Financial Adviser. In the past two years preceding the Latest Practicable Date, Capital 9 Limited has acted as the independent financial adviser to the independent board committee and the independent shareholders of the Company in respect of the continuing connected transactions as detailed in the circular of the Company dated 9 May 2025. Capital 9 Limited received normal professional fees from the Company under such engagement. Save for the aforesaid engagement, there was no engagement between the Company and us. Apart from normal professional fees paid or payable to us in connection with this appointment as the Independent Financial Adviser, no arrangement exist whereby we had received any fees or benefits from the Company. Accordingly, we are independent from the Company pursuant to Rule 17.96 of the GEM Listing Rules and are qualified to give independent advice in respect of the Proposed Amendments.

PRINCIPAL REASONS AND FACTORS CONSIDERED

In arriving at our recommendation to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Proposed Amendments, we have taken into consideration the following principal reasons and factors:

(1) Background of and reasons for the Proposed Amendments

Insufficient financial resources for redemption of the Convertible Bonds

The Convertible Bonds in the principal amount of HK$19 million were issued to Mr. Chiau on 17 March 2022 pursuant to the Subscription and Settlement Agreement dated 7 December 2021 (as supplemented by a supplemental agreement dated 28 December 2021) as announced by the Company on 17 March 2022. As at the Latest

  • 31 -

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Practicable Date, the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Bonds is HK$19 million convertible into 69,090,909 Conversion Shares at the conversion price of HK$0.275 for each Conversion Share.

(a) Internal cash resources

As stated in the Letter from the Board, the Company lacks sufficient financial resources to redeem the Convertible Bonds which matured on 31 December 2025. The cash and cash equivalents of the Group amounted to approximately HK$36.5 million as at 30 September 2025 as stated in the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 September 2025 (the "2025/26 IR"). As advised by the Company, the Group's cash and cash equivalents amounted to approximately HK$32.8 million as at 31 December 2025, and a majority portion of which were the unutilised initial production cost prepaid by a strategic partner pursuant to the strategic cooperation framework agreement (the "Cooperation Agreement") entered into between the Company and its strategic partners on 31 August 2024 to stipulate the strategic cooperation effective from 31 August 2024 to 31 July 2029 as announced by the Company on 1 September 2024, and therefore has been earmarked for the aforesaid cooperation arrangement in light of the production schedule below, including but not limited to prepayment to the other strategic partner under the Cooperation Agreement for production of short films, regardless there was not a clause in the Cooperation Agreement requiring the minimum cash level held by the Company during the term of such agreement. As advised by the Company, the script writing of a TV series has commenced and shooting will commence and the product will be delivered in the lower half of 2026. We have also reviewed and noted from the agreement relating to the production of the aforesaid TV series signed between the Company and the other parties of the Cooperation Agreement in September 2025 and noted such production schedule. The preparation work of producing another TV series and two more productions are also expected to commence in the second half of 2026 and in 2027 respectively. The production cost deductible from the aforesaid prepaid production cost received by the Company is around HK$19 million for each of the four works above, and the production cost of the aforesaid 2 TV series (i.e. HK$38 million in total based on HK$19 million each in average) and the remaining prepaid production cost (HK$38 million in total based on HK$19 million each in average) for the other 2 productions is expected to be paid to third party for production by the end of 2026 and 2027 respectively. The cash position of the Group above indicates that the Company does not have sufficient internal cash resources to redeem the Convertible Bonds in full.

  • 32 -

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

As further stated in the Letter from the Board, the aforementioned cash and cash equivalents of the Group of approximately HK$32.8 million as at 31 December 2025 will be used in the short-term period of the forthcoming 3 to 6 months as follows: (i) approximately HK$12 million will be used as the Group's operating expenses; (ii) approximately HK$10 million will be used for the first production project which is in script development and production stage; (iii) approximately HK$5 million will be used for project promotion and relevant expenses; and (iv) the balance of approximately HK$5.8 million will be kept as the Group's reserve for satisfying any unforeseen expenditures in the course of the projects development.

We have reviewed the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025 and the 2025/26 IR. The Group recorded net loss of approximately HK$23.3 million for the year ended 31 March 2025 and approximately HK$13.9 million for the six months ended 30 September 2025, and net liabilities of approximately HK$45.2 million as at 30 September 2025. We understood from the Directors that, in light of the aforesaid net loss and tight liquidity position of the Group, they consider it in the interest of the Group to retain its internal cash resources for the business operation of the Group, rather than for redemption of the Convertible Bonds.

(b) Alternative financing methods

We have understood from the Directors that the Company had been considering if any alternative financing method, such as debt financing, equity financing such as open offer, rights issue or placing of new shares, could be adopted to finance the redemption of the Convertible Bonds for not less than half a year before the maturity date, taking into account various factors including but limited to then financial performance and position of the Group, liquidity of trading of the Shares and trend of Hong Kong prime lending rate released in public by banks. After considering the unsatisfactory financial performance of the Group for FY2024/25 and the subsequent interim period, the bank lending rate which remained high to the Group given its tight liquidity and the inactive trading of the Shares during the aforesaid period, the Directors considered that it was not in the interest of the Company to conduct debt financing which will impose further interest burden on the Group, or conduct rights issue or open offer as whether sufficient amount of proceeds can be raised for full redemption of the Convertible Bonds is uncertain.

We concur with the Directors' view that debt financing will impose interest burden on the Group. In addition, given the net loss performance of the Group for the year ended 31 March 2025 and the six months ended 30 September 2025 and its net liabilities which further increased to over HK$45 million as at 30 September 2025 from over HK$31 million as at 31 March 2025 as shown in the 2024/25 AR and 2025/26 IR, it is believed that it may be difficult for the Group to obtain borrowings on terms favourable to the Group.

  • 33 -

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Regarding equity financing, rights issue or open offer is considered to be time and cost consuming as it requires the preparation of prospectus and application/subscription form. And it will take a much longer time if general meeting is required to obtain shareholders' approval on the rights issue or open offer. According to the sample timetables stated in the guideline "Guide on Trading Arrangements for Selected Types of Corporate Actions" issued by the Stock Exchange, it is expected to take 29 to 33 business days to complete a rights issue or an open offer (from the announcement of the rights issue or open offer to the expected first day of dealings in the fully-paid rights shares or offer shares) assuming no general meeting is required to obtain shareholders' approval on the rights issue or open offer, and 41 business days if a general meeting is required. Fund raising results of rights issue or open offer without an underwriter is uncertain. Additional cost burden will be imposed on the Group if an underwriter is engaged. We have discussed and understood from the Company that they have approached securities firm for possibility of their acting as placing agent or underwriter of the Company for fund raising but no favorable response was received. Further, we have reviewed the trading liquidity of the Shares for the year from March 2025 to February 2026, and noted that the average daily trading volume of the Shares ranged from approximately 106,619 Shares (in March 2025) to approximately 364,954 Shares (in July 2025), representing approximately 0.10% to 0.35% of the total number of issued Shares, and approximately 0.18% to 0.60% of the total number of issued Shares held by the public Shareholders, as at the end of the respective month. In light of such thin liquidity of the Shares, we concur with the Directors that fund raising by placing of new Shares may not be feasible unless a substantial discount to the market price of the Shares is offered.

We have also understood from the Company that the Group currently has no material assets which can be disposed of to finance the redemption of the Convertible Bonds. We have reviewed the 2025/26 IR and noted that the total assets of the Group amounted to approximately HK$75.8 million as at 30 September 2025, of which (i) approximately HK$36.5 million was cash and cash equivalents which would have to be retained for the Group's operation or production as discussed above, (ii) approximately HK$22.8 million was other receivables, deposits and prepayments which were operation-related items and thus were difficult to be realised into cash for other uses, and (iii) approximately HK$13.3 million were financial assets at fair value through profit or loss which were not sufficient to cover the redemption amount of HK$19 million even disposed of.

Taking into account the factors above, we concur with the Directors' view that the alternative financing methods are not suitable for the Company.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Conversion restriction under the terms of the Convertible Bonds

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Mr. Chiau and the Offeror Concert Parties are interested in 42,969,476 Shares, representing approximately 39.47% of the total issued share capital of the Company. The intended exercise of the conversion right attaching to the Convertible Bonds for the issue and allotment of 69,090,909 Shares will result in an increase in the shareholdings of Mr. Chiau and the Offeror's Concert Parties to approximately 62.97%, being 112,060,385 Shares, which will trigger a mandatory offer obligation under Rule 26.1 of the Takeovers Code. Assuming all the outstanding Share Options, other than those held by Mr. Chiau and Offeror Concert Parties, are exercised upon the Conversion, the Offeror and the Offeror Concert Parties will hold 112,060,385 Shares, representing approximately 61.23% of the total issued share capital of the Company upon the Conversion becomes effective.

Nevertheless, any Conversion is subject to the Conversion Restriction. According to the terms of the Convertible Bonds, the holder(s) of the Convertible Bonds, will have the right to convert the whole or part of the principal amount of the Convertible Bonds into Conversion Shares from the date of the issue of the Convertible Bonds up to the day immediately prior to the maturity date, being 31 December 2025, subject to, among others, the Conversion Restriction unless such mandatory offer obligation has been waived on the part of the holder(s) of the Convertible Bonds which exercised the conversion rights, whether or not such mandatory offer obligation is triggered by the fact that the number of Conversion Shares to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of the conversion rights attaching to the Convertible Bonds (if applicable, including any Shares acquired by the parties acting in concert with the holder(s) of the Convertible Bonds).

As stated in the Letter from the Board, should the Proposed Amendments not be approved and thus no Conversion can take place, the Convertible Bonds will become a straight bond repayable on 31 December 2025 and the Company will have the obligation to settle the liability thereunder, which is considered not be in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole taking into account insufficient financial resources of the Group as discussed above. The Company may seek an extension of the repayment date or other settlement plans to be negotiated with Mr. Chiau. In addition, should the Proposed Amendment not be approved, due to the Conversion Restriction, the Offeror and the Offeror Concert Parties have to apply for whitewash waiver which requires Shareholders' approval, however, the result of which is uncertain. If the whitewash waiver is approved by the Shareholders and thus granted, the Shareholders will not have the option to sell their Shares in general offer. If the whitewash waiver is not approved, the Group has to redeem the Convertible Bonds which is not in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as discussed above.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Further, we noted from the announcements of other listed companies in Hong Kong, such as that made by Kasen International Holdings Limited on 7 March 2025 and E&P Global Holdings Limited on 28 March 2025, that general offer obligation is triggered by conversion of convertible bonds and resulted in whitewash application is not uncommon. Taking into account the above, it is considered that the Proposed Amendments are justifiable and on normal commercial term.

Improved liquidity position

As stated in the Letter from the Board, the Company's debt-to-asset ratio for the six months ended 30 September 2025 was approximately 1.60. Should the Proposed Amendments be approved, the Convertible Bonds can be exercised and thus the liability of the Group attributable to the Convertible Bonds will be deducted, the Company's debt-to-asset ratio is expected to be lowered to approximately 1.35 after the Conversion.

Participation of Mr. Chiau

As stated in the Letter from the Board, the Board believes that Mr. Chiau may be more encouraged to even more actively participate in the operational turnaround of the Company with greater shareholdings in the Company after the Conversion. The Independent Shareholders are also given the opportunity to witness and benefit from the future developments of the Company together with Mr. Chiau.

Taking into consideration the above, the Proposed Amendments are considered to be in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

(2) Details of the Proposed Amendments

On 12 February 2026, the Company and Mr. Chiau entered into the Deed of Amendment, pursuant to which the Company agrees to uplift the Conversion Restriction. Save as the Proposed Amendments, all other terms of the Convertible Bonds remain unchanged.

Notes:

  1. Mr. Chiau, Ms. Chow and their family are the beneficiaries of a discretionary trust of which Sinostar is the trustee. Sinostar as the trustee of the discretionary trust is the sole shareholder of Treasure Offshore, which is the sole shareholder of Beglobal. All of Sinostar, Treasure Offshore, Golden Treasure and Beglobal are parties acting in concert with Ms. Chow and Mr. Chiau (as defined under the Takeovers Code). Beglobal directly holds 32,962,124 Shares (30.28% of the total issued Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date) and indirectly holds 7,250,000 Shares (6.66% of the total issued Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date) through Golden Treasure. Golden Treasure is a directly wholly-owned subsidiary of Beglobal. By virtue of the SFO, Mr. Chiau is deemed to be interested in the Shares held by Beglobal and Golden Treasure. As of the Latest Practicable Date, Ms. Chow is holding 956,644 Share Options which entitles her to exercise and subscribe for 956,644 Shares, and Mr. Chiau is holding 102,644 Share Options which entitles him to exercise and subscribe for 102,644 shares.

  2. Save for Mr. Chiau, Ms. Chow and Mr. Lau Man Kit, as at the Latest Practicable Date, no Directors hold any Shares or securities of the Company.

  3. The other holders of the share options are not core connected persons of the Company. Upon the exercise of the share options, no option holder will become a substantial shareholder and therefore will be public shareholders.

  4. The above percentage figures are subject to rounding adjustments. Accordingly, figures shown as total may not be an arithmetic aggregation of the figures preceding it.

As a result of the Conversion, the shareholding of the existing public Shareholders will decrease from approximately 60.53% as at the Latest Practicable Date to approximately 37.03% immediately upon full exercise of the Convertible Bonds (assuming none of the outstanding Share Options is exercised upon the Conversion) or 36.00% (assuming all the outstanding Share Options are exercised upon the Conversion, other than those already owned by Mr. Chiau and/or parties acting in concert with him).

Having taken into account the settlement of the liability of the Group arising from the Convertible Bonds by the Conversion is considered to be favourable to the Group currently has no sufficient financial resources for full redemption of the Convertible Bonds which have matured on 31 December 2025 as discussed above, we are of the view that the potential dilution effect on the shareholding interests of the public Shareholders as a result of the Conversion is justifiable.
