REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE SUBSCRIPTION
The Group has been constantly looking for business opportunities to enhance shareholders’ value while abiding to the internal investment policy of the Group. In light of the current low interest rates on bank deposits, the Board is of the view that the Subscription is an ideal short-term investment opportunity for the Group as this allows the Company to utilize its Renminbi surplus cash reserves more efficiently.
The Group selects short-term wealth management products prudently with an aim to improve its efficiency on capital utilization, earn extra return on investment and combat inflation while not affecting the Group’s daily cash flows. After taking into consideration the investment risks and potential returns of the Subscription are in line with the needs of the Company, the Board considers that the terms of the Subscription are on normal commercial terms, and are fair and reasonable and are in the interest of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.
