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.

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES FOR THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The health of our shareholders, staff and stakeholders is of paramount importance to us.

In view of the ongoing Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the Company will implement the following precautionary measures at the AGM to protect attending shareholders, staff and stakeholders from the risk of infection:

  • (i) Compulsory body temperature checks will be conducted for every shareholder, proxy or other attendee at each entrance of the meeting venue. Any person with a body temperature of over 37.4 degrees Celsius may be denied entry into the meeting venue or be required to leave the meeting venue.

In addition, the Company reminds all shareholders that physical attendance in person at the meeting is not necessary for the purpose of exercising voting rights.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

PROPOSED GRANT OF GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE SHARES AND REPURCHASE SHARES AND EXTENSION OF ISSUE MANDATE TO ISSUE SHARES

Pursuant to the ordinary resolutions passed at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 30 September 2019, the Directors were granted general mandates to allot, issue and deal with the Shares. As at the Latest Practicable Date, such general mandate has not been utilised and will lapse at the conclusion of the AGM.

At the AGM, separate ordinary resolutions will be proposed to grant the general mandates to the Directors: (i) to allot, issue and otherwise deal with new Shares not exceeding in aggregate 20% of the aggregate number of issued Shares of the Company at the date of the passing of such resolution; (ii) to repurchase Shares comprising the aggregate nominal amount of which does not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of issued Shares of the Company at the date of passing of such resolution; and (iii) the general extension mandate, after the Repurchase Mandate is granted, to add the aggregate amount of the Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate to the Issue Mandate, subject to a maximum of 10% of the aggregate number of issued Shares of the Company at the date of passing of the resolution for approving the Issue Mandate.

Based on 1,200,000,000 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming that no further Shares are repurchased or issued prior to the AGM, subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution for approving the Issue Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate, the Directors will be authorised to allot, issue and deal with up to a limit of 240,000,000 Shares pursuant to the Issue Mandate and repurchase 120,000,000 Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

An explanatory statement, required by the GEM Listing Rules to be sent to the Shareholders in connection with the Repurchase Mandate, is set out in Appendix I to this circular.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

The Board currently consists of three executive Directors, namely Ms. Wong Wai Fong (‘‘Ms. Wong’’) (Chairman), Mr. Chan Lap Ping and Mr. Zhang Chi, one non-executive Director, namely Mr. Wu Jing Xie (‘‘Mr. Wu’’) and four independent non-executive Directors, namely, Mr. Chan Hoi Kuen Matthew (‘‘Mr. Chan’’), Mr. Chung Wing Yin, Mr. Law Yui Lun and Mr. Lu Jun Bo (‘‘Mr. Lu’’).

Pursuant to Article 83(3) of the Articles, the Directors shall have power from time to time and at any time to appoint any person as a Director either to fill a casual vacancy on the Board or as an addition to the existing Board. Any Director appointed by the Board to fill a casual vacancy shall hold office only until the first general meeting of members after his appointment and be subject to re-election at such meeting and any Director appointed by the Board as an addition to the existing Board shall hold office only until the next following annual general meeting of the Company and shall then be eligible for re-election. Accordingly, Mr. Wu shall retire from office as the non-executive Director and Mr. Lu shall retire from office as an independent non-executive Director at the AGM and being eligible, offer themselves for re-election.

Article 84(1) of the Articles provides that at each annual general meeting, one-third of the Directors for the time being, or, if their number is not three or a multiple of three, then the number nearest to but not less than one-third, shall retire from office by rotation provided that every Director shall be subject to retirement by rotation at least once every three years. A retiring Director shall be eligible for re-election. According to article 84(2) of the Articles, the Directors to retire by rotation shall include (so far as necessary to ascertain the number of directors to retire by rotation) any Director who wishes to retire and not to offer himself for reelection. Any Director who has not been subject to retirement by rotation in the three years preceding the annual general meeting shall retire by rotation at such annual general meeting. Any further Directors so to retire shall be those of the other Directors subject to retirement by rotation who have been longest in office since their last re-election or appointment and so that as between persons who became or were last re-elected Directors on the same day those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by lot. Any Director appointed by the Board pursuant to Article 83(3) of the Articles shall not be taken into account in determining which particular Directors or the number of Directors who are to retire by rotation. Accordingly, Ms. Wong and Mr. Chan shall retire by rotation at the AGM and being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election at the AGM.

The Board, upon the recommendation of the nomination committee of the Board, proposed Ms. Wong, Mr. Wu, Mr. Chan and Mr. Lu (collectively the ‘‘Retiring Directors’’), to stand for re-election at the AGM.

Particulars of the Directors proposed to be re-elected in the AGM are set out in Appendix II to this circular.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Procedure and Process for Nomination of Directors

The Nomination Committee will recommend to the Board for the appointment of a Director including an INED in accordance with the following procedures and process:

  • (a) The Nomination Committee will, giving due consideration to the current composition and size of the Board, develop a list of desirable skills, perspectives and experience at the outset to focus the search effort;

  • (b) The Nomination Committee may consult any source it considers appropriate in identifying or selecting suitable candidates, such as referrals from existing Directors, advertising, recommendations from a third party agency firm and proposals from the Shareholders with due consideration given to the criteria which include but are not limited to:

  • (i) diversity in the aspects, amongst others, of gender, age, cultural and educational background, professional experience, skills, knowledge and length of service;

  • (ii) commitment for responsibilities of the Board in respect of available time and relevant interest;

  • (iii) qualifications, including accomplishment and experience in the relevant industries in which the Group’s business is involved;

  • (iv) independence of the INEDs;

  • (v) reputation for integrity;

  • (vi) potential contributions that the individual can bring to the Board; and

(vii) plan(s) in place for the orderly succession of the Board;

  • (c) The Nomination Committee may adopt any process it considers appropriate in evaluating the suitability of the candidates, such as interviews, background checks, presentations and third party reference checks;

  • (d) The Nomination Committee will consider a broad range of candidates who are in and outside of the Board’s circle of contacts;

  • (e) Upon considering a 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;

  • (f) The Nomination Committee will provide the relevant information of the selected candidate to the Remuneration Committee for consideration of the remuneration package of such selected candidate;

– 6 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (g) The Nomination Committee will thereafter make the recommendation to the Board in relation to the proposed appointment, and where a non-executive Director is considered, the Remuneration Committee will make the recommendation to the Board on the policy and structure for the remuneration;

  • (h) The Board may arrange for the selected candidate to be interviewed by the members of the Board who are not members of the Nomination Committee and the Board will thereafter deliberate and decide the appointment as the case may be; and

  • (i) All appointment of Directors will be confirmed by the filing of the consent to act as Director of the relevant Director (or any other similar filings requiring the relevant Director to acknowledge or accept the appointment as Director, as the case may be) to be filed with the relevant regulatory authorities, if required.

Recommendations of the Nomination Committee

The Nomination Committee had, among other matters, evaluated the performance of each of the Retiring Directors during the period from their respective dates of appointment to 31 March 2020 and found their performance satisfactory.

The Nomination Committee has also assessed and reviewed the annual written confirmation of independence based on the independence criteria as set out in Rule 5.09 of the GEM Listing Rules received from each of the INEDs and confirmed that all of them remain independent.

In view of the diversified knowledge, experience and skills of Mr. Chan and Mr. Lu, the Board believes that their expertise will enable them to fulfill their roles as independent nonexecutive Directors effectively and can provide useful and constructive opinion and make contribution to the Board and future development of the Company. Also, based on the background of Mr. Chan and Mr. Lu including but not limited to their gender, cultural and educational background, ethnicity, professional experience, skills and knowledge, it is believed that Mr. Chan and Mr. Lu can contribute to diversity of the Board.

Accordingly, the Nomination Committee recommended to the Board that the Retiring Directors stand for re-election as Directors at the AGM. As a good corporate governance practice, each of the Retiring Directors abstained from voting at the relevant Board meeting on the respective propositions of their recommendations for re-election by the Shareholders at the AGM.

The biographical details of each of the Retiring Directors to be re-elected at the AGM are set out in Appendix II to this circular in accordance with the relevant requirements under the GEM Listing Rules.

The notice convening the AGM at which ordinary resolutions will be proposed, inter alia, the Issue Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate; the re-election of Retiring Directors and the re-appointment of auditors of the Company are set out on pages 16 to 20 of this circular.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required pursuant to Rule 13.08 and other relevant provisions of the GEM Listing Rules, to provide you with the requisite information for your consideration of the Repurchase Mandate.

1. STOCK EXCHANGE RULES FOR REPURCHASES OF SHARES

The GEM Listing Rules permit companies with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions.

The GEM Listing Rules provide that all proposed repurchases of shares by a company with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange must be approved by shareholders in advance by an ordinary resolution at a general meeting, either by way of a general mandate or by a specific approval of a particular transaction and that the shares to be repurchased must be fully paid up.

2. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 1,200,000,000 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the relevant ordinary resolutions granting the Repurchase Shares and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased before the AGM, the Directors would be authorised to exercise the powers of the Company to repurchase a maximum of 120,000,000 Shares, being 10% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of the AGM. The Shares repurchased by the Company shall, subject to applicable law, be automatically cancelled upon such repurchase.

3. REASONS FOR REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders to have a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Directors to repurchase Shares in the market. Such repurchases may, depending on 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 and will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

4. FUNDING AND EFFECT OF REPURCHASES

Repurchases made pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate would be funded out of funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the memorandum of association of the Company, the Articles, the GEM Listing Rules, and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

Under the GEM Listing Rules, a listed company may not repurchase its own shares listed on GEM for a consideration other than cash or for settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Stock Exchange as amended from time to time.

– 10 –

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

The Directors consider that, if the Repurchase Mandate was to be exercised in full at any time during the proposed purchase period, there might be a material adverse effect on the working capital and/or the gearing position of the Company as compared with the position as at 31 March 2020, being the date of its latest published audited consolidated financial statements. However, the Directors do not intend to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or the gearing position of the Company.

5. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules, the memorandum of association of the Company, the Articles and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

6. TAKEOVER CODE CONSEQUENCE

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

As at the Latest Practicable Date, according to the register of members kept by the Company pursuant to section 336 of the SFO and so far as was known to, or could be ascertained after reasonable enquiry by, the Directors, Sure Wonder Investments Limited held a beneficial interest in 836,952,000 Shares representing approximately 69.75% of the issued share capital of the Company. Sure Wonder Investments Limited is owned as to 83.4% by Ms. Wong Wai Fong (‘‘Ms. Wong’’), 9.3% by Mr. Kwok Yiu Chung, 1.8% by Ms. Yang Dongxiang and 5.5% by Mr. Hui Chun Wah, and is a controlled corporation of Ms. Wong, the chairman of the Board. By virtue of the SFO, Ms. Wong is deemed or taken to be interested in the Shares held by Sure Wonder Investments Limited in the Company. Mr. Kwok Yiu Chung is the spouse of Ms. Wong. Under the SFO, Mr. Kwok Yiu Chung is deemed or taken to be interested in the same number of the Shares in which Ms. Wong is interested.

In the event that the Repurchase Mandate was exercised in full, the percentage shareholding of Sure Wonder Investments Limited would be increased to approximately 77.5% of the issued share capital of the Company. Any repurchase of the Shares which results in the number of the Shares held by the public being reduced to less than the prescribed percentage of the Shares then in issue could only be implemented with the approval of the Stock Exchange to waive the GEM Listing Rules requirements regarding the public float under the GEM Listing Rules. However, the Directors have no present intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would result in the number of the Shares which are in the hands of the public falling below 25% of the total number of the Shares in issue (or such other percentage as may be prescribed as the minimum public shareholding under the GEM Listing Rules).

– 11 –

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

7. SHARE REPURCHASES MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company has not made any repurchases of its Shares (whether on GEM or otherwise) in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.

8. DIRECTORS, THEIR ASSOCIATES AND CONNECTED PERSON

None of the Directors and, to the best of their knowledge, having made all reasonable enquiries, none of their respective close associates, have any present intention, in the event that the proposal on the Repurchase Mandate is approved by Shareholders, to sell Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries.

No core connected persons of the Company (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules) have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company, nor have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

9. SHARE PRICES

The highest and lowest traded prices for the Shares on the Stock Exchange during each of the twelve months immediately preceding and the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

Share prices
Highest Lowest
2019
