CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE OF HONG KONG LIMITED (THE ‘‘STOCK EXCHANGE’’)

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 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.

The Company had in issue 800,000,000 Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date. Subject to the passing of the Proposed resolution for the approval of the Issue mandate and in accordance with the terms therein, the Company would be allowed to allot and issue up to a maximum of 160,000,000 Shares, representing 20% of the total number of Shares in issue at the time of the passing of the resolution approving the Issue Mandate, assuming that no further Shares will be issued or repurchased by the Company prior to the 2024 AGM.

The explanatory statement required by the GEM Listing Rules to be included in this circular is set out in Appendix I to this circular.

In addition, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the 2024 AGM to extend the Issue Mandate by the addition of a number of Shares representing the aggregate issued share capital repurchased under the Repurchase Mandate.

Procedure and Process for Nomination of Directors

The Board, through the delegation of its authority to the nomination committee, has used its best efforts to ensure that Directors (including independent non-executive Directors) appointed (including re-election) to the Board possess the relevant background, experience and knowledge in business, finance and management skills critical to the Group’s business to enable the Board to make sound and well considered decisions. Collectively, they have competencies in areas which are relevant and valuable to the Group.

The nomination committee will recommend to the Board for the appointment (including re-election) of a Director (including independent non-executive Director) in accordance with the following procedures and process.

– 5 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The nomination committee utilizes various methods for identifying director candidates, including recommendations from Board members, management, and professional referrals. All director candidates, including incumbents and candidates nominated by Shareholders are evaluated by the nomination committee based upon the director qualifications, diversity of knowledge and experiences. While director candidates will be evaluated on the same criteria through review of resume, personal interview and performance of background checks. The nomination committee retains the discretion to establish the relative weighting of such criteria, which may vary based on the composition, skill sets, age, gender and experiences of the collective Board rather than on the individual candidate for the purpose of diversity perspectives appropriate to the requirement of the Company’s business.

The nomination committee will take into account whether a candidate has the qualifications, skills, experience and gender diversity that add to and complement the range of skills, experience and background of existing Directors by considering the highest personal and professional ethics and integrity of the director candidates, and competence in the nominee’s field and the ability to exercise sound business judgment, skills that are complementary to those existing Board, the ability to assist and support management and make significant contributions to the Company’s success and such other factors as it may deem are in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders.

Upon considering a director candidate suitable for the directorship, the nomination committee will hold a meeting and/or by way of written resolutions to, if thought fit, approve the recommendation to the Board for appointment (including re-election). In the meantime, the nomination committee will provide the relevant information of the selected director candidate to the remuneration committee for consideration of the remuneration package of such selected candidate.

The nomination committee will thereafter make the recommendation to the Board in relation to the proposed appointment (including re-election); while the remuneration committee will make the recommendation to the Board on the policy and structure for the remuneration.

The Board will arrange for the selected candidate to be interviewed by the members of the Board and the Board, if necessary, with the recommendation of the nomination committee, will deliberate and decide the appointment.

Recommendation of the Nomination Committee

The nomination committee had assessed and reviewed the annual written confirmation of independence of each of the independent non-executive Directors for the year ended 30 June 2024 based on the independence criteria as set out in Rule 5.09 of the GEM Listing Rules and confirmed that Mr. Law Sung Ching Gavin remains independent. In addition, the nomination committee had evaluated the performance of the retiring Directors for the year ended 30 June 2024 and found their performance satisfactory. Therefore, the nomination committee nominated the retiring Directors to the Board for it to propose to Shareholders for their re-election at the 2024 AGM.

– 6 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Accordingly, with the recommendation of the nomination committee, the Board has proposed that the retiring Directors, Mr. Paulino Lim, Mr. Yang Tien-Lee and Mr. Law Sung Ching Gavin stand for re-election as Directors at the 2024 AGM.

Details of the retiring Directors proposed to be re-elected as Directors at the 2024 AGM, which are required to be disclosed by the GEM Listing Rules, are set out in Appendix II to this circular.

In proposing the resolutions to re-elect Mr. Law Sung Ching Gavin as independent nonexecutive Director, the Board has also considered her skills, knowledge and professional experience as described in her respective biographical information set out in Appendix II to this Circular. Having regard to the Company’s nomination policy and diversity policy, the Board is of the view that Mr. Law Sung Ching Gavin has extensive professional experience in affairs of listed corporations and management which has enabled her to provide valuable and diverse views, as well as relevant insights to the Board and contribute to the diversity of the Board. Further information about the Board’s composition and diversity is disclosed in the Corporate Governance Report of the 2024 Annual Report of the Company.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the GEM Listing Rules, to provide the requisite information to you for your consideration of the Repurchase Mandate.

SHAREHOLDERS’ APPROVAL

The GEM Listing Rules provide that all repurchase of securities by a company with its primary listing on the Stock Exchange must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution, either by way of general mandate or by specific approval in relation to specific transactions.

SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, 800,000,000 Shares were in issue and fully paid. Subject to the passing of the relevant ordinary resolutions and on the basis that no further Shares are issued and repurchased prior to the 2024 AGM, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 80,000,000 Shares, representing 10% of the aggregate nominal value of the Shares in issue.

REASONS FOR REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders for the Directors to have a general authority from Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase Shares in the market. Repurchase of Shares will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. Such repurchase may, depending on the market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value of the Company and/or its earnings per Share.

FUNDING OF REPURCHASE

Any repurchase will only be funded out of funds of the Company legally available for the purpose of making the proposed purchases in accordance with the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association and the laws of the Cayman Islands.

EFFECT OF EXERCISING THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2024) in the event that the repurchase of Shares were to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the repurchase of Shares to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

DIRECTORS AND CORE CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, their respective Close Associates have any present intention, if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders, to sell any Share to the Company or its subsidiaries.

– 9 –

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

No Core Connected Persons have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries, or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

DIRECTORS’ UNDERTAKING

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that they will exercise the powers of the Company to make repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

TAKEOVERS CODE AND MINIMUM PUBLIC HOLDING

If, as a result of a repurchase of Shares, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in the interest of our Shareholders, could obtain or consolidate control of our Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Company, the following Shareholders were interested in 5% or more of the issued Shares as recorded in the register of the Company kept under Section 336(1) of Part XV (Disclosure of Interests) of the SFO.

On the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the AGM and if the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full, the total interests of the following Shareholders in the issued voting Shares before and after the repurchase of Shares would be as follows:

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

Notes:

  1. Mr. Kwan Tek Sian beneficially owns 100% of the entire issued shares of Kin Sun Creative Company Limited. Therefore, Mr. Kwan Tek Sian is deemed, or taken to be, interested in 251,373,415 Shares held by Kin Sun Creative Company Limited for the purposes of the SFO.

  2. Mr. Lim Su I and Mr. Paulino Lim are siblings.

  3. Ms. Chiu Yin Mei is our administration manager.

  4. Ms. Ha Jasmine Nim Chi, spouse of Mr. Kwan Tek Sian, is deemed, or taken to be, interested in 251,373,415 Shares in which Mr. Kwan Tek Sian is interested for the purposes of the SFO.

  5. Ms. Chan Ching, spouse of Mr. Lim Su I, is deemed, or taken to be, interested in 114,510,732 Shares in which Mr. Lim Su I is interested for the purposes of the SFO.

  6. Ms. Liu Li Wen, spouse of Mr. Yang Tien-Lee, is deemed, or taken to be interested in 64,390,244 Shares in which Mr. Yang is interested for the purposes of the SFO.

  7. Ms. Wang Yu-Ju, spouse of Mr. Wang Wann-Bao, is deemed, or taken to be interested in 51,230,244 Shares in which Mr. Wang is interested for the purposes of the SFO.

  8. Ms. Ng Pei Ying, spouse of Mr. Paulino Lim, is deemed, or taken to be, interested in 40,975,610 Shares in which Mr. Paulino Lim is interested for the purposes of the SFO.

As such, the increase in shareholding as a result of exercising the Repurchase Mandate in full may give rise to an obligation for Kin Sun Creative Company Limited, Mr. Kwan Tek Sian and Ms. Ha Jasmine Nim Chi to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeover Code.

Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any other consequences under the Takeovers Code as a result of a repurchase of Shares made pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate. The Directors have no intention to exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that will result in a requirement of Shareholders, or any other persons to make a mandatory general offer under the Takeovers Code. If any exercise of the powers of the Company to make repurchases of Shares pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate would, to the knowledge of the Directors, result in the takeovers obligation, the Directors would not purchase Shares to such an extent.

Further, the Company may not repurchase Shares which would result in the number of Shares in the hands of the public falling below the prescribed minimum percentage of 25% of the issued share capital of the Company.

SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY IN THE PREVIOUS 12 MONTHS

No repurchase of Shares has been made by the Company during the previous twelve months immediately prior to the Latest Practicable Date.
