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 Main Board of 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.

(II) RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS;
(III) RE-APPOINTMENT OF RETIRING AUDITOR
AND
(IV) SHARE CONSOLIDATION
1. INTRODUCTION
The primary purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM which include, amongst others, the approval of the (i) proposed grant of the Issue Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate and the Extension Mandate; (ii) proposed re-election of Directors; (iii) proposed re-appointment of retiring auditor and (iv) proposed Share Consolidation; and to give you notice of the AGM.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
2. PROPOSED GRANTING OF GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE AND REPURCHASE SHARES
At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 5 June 2025, the Directors were granted a general mandate to allot, issue and deal with Shares and a general mandate to repurchase Shares. These mandates will expire at the conclusion of the AGM. At the AGM, among other businesses, ordinary resolutions will be proposed to grant the Issue Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate and the Extension Mandate to the Directors.
Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution for the grant of the Issue Mandate and on the basis that no Shares are issued or repurchased by the Company during the period between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of the AGM, the Directors will be authorised to allot, issue and deal with (including any sale or transfer of treasury Shares) up to a maximum of 937,209,670 Shares pursuant to the Issue Mandate based on the total number of issued Shares of 4,686,048,350 as at the Latest Practicable Date (excluding treasury Shares, if any).
At the AGM, an ordinary resolution will also be proposed to grant to the Directors the Repurchase Mandate, i.e. a general and unconditional mandate to exercise the power of the Company to repurchase, on the Stock Exchange, Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the aggregate number of Shares in issue (excluding treasury Shares, if any) as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution. In addition, an ordinary resolution regarding the Extension Mandate will be proposed at the AGM to authorise the increase in the total number of Shares which may be allotted, issued and dealt with (including any sale or transfer of treasury Shares out of treasury) under the Issue Mandate by an additional number representing such number of Shares actually repurchased under the Repurchase Mandate.
Each of the Issue Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate and the Extension Mandate will expire at the earliest of: (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (b) the end of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles or any applicable laws of Hong Kong and the Cayman Islands to be held; or (c) when revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders at a general meeting prior to the next annual general meeting of the Company.
Under the GEM Listing Rules, the Company is required to give the Shareholders an explanatory statement containing all information reasonably necessary to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution to grant the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors. The explanatory statement required by the GEM Listing Rules is set out in Appendix I to this circular.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
3. PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
In accordance with articles 83 and 84 of the Articles, all Directors will retire and, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election as Directors at the AGM.
Particulars of the Directors to be re-elected and the reasons of the Nomination Committee and the Board for their recommendations in respect of the re-election of such Directors are set out in Appendix II to this circular.
4. PROPOSED RE-APPOINTMENT OF RETIRING AUDITOR
The Board proposed the re-appointment of Loyal Honour CPA Limited as the auditor of the Company and to hold office until the next annual general meeting of the Company, subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the AGM.
It is expected that the audit fee for the year ending 31 December 2026 is estimated to be approximately HK$560,000, whereas the non-audit service fee is estimated to be approximately HK$240,000. This estimate takes into account the comparable audit scope, audit timetable and required resources as in 2025.
5. PROPOSED SHARE CONSOLIDATION
The Board proposes to implement the Share Consolidation pursuant to which every fifty (50) issued and unissued Existing Shares of par value of HK$0.005 each in the share capital of the Company will be consolidated into one (1) Consolidated Share of par value of HK$0.25 each.
Effects of the Share Consolidation
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the authorised share capital of the Company was HK$110,000,000, comprising (i) HK$100,000,000 divided into 20,000,000,000 Existing Shares of par value of HK$0.005 each, of which 4,686,048,350 Existing Shares have been allotted and issued as fully paid; and (ii) HK$10,000,000 divided into 2,000,000,000 Preferred Shares of par value of HK$0.005 each, of which no Preferred Shares have been issued to date. Upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective and assuming that no further Existing Shares are issued or bought back and no Preferred Shares are issued from the Latest Practicable Date until the effective date of the Share Consolidation, the authorised share capital of the Company will include HK$100,000,000 divided into 400,000,000 Consolidated Shares of par value of HK$0.25 each, of which 93,720,967 whole Consolidated Shares will be in issue and fully paid; and HK$10,000,000 divided into 2,000,000,000 Preferred Shares of par value of HK$0.005 each.
Upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the Consolidated Shares shall rank pari passu in all respects with each other and the Share Consolidation will not result in any change in the relative rights of the Shareholders.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Other than the expenses to be incurred in relation to the Share Consolidation, the implementation of the Share Consolidation will not alter the underlying assets, business operations, management or financial position of the Company or the proportionate interests or rights of the Shareholders, save for any fractional Consolidated Shares which will not be allocated to the Shareholders who may otherwise be entitled.
Conditions of the Share Consolidation
The Share Consolidation is conditional upon the fulfilment of the following conditions:
(i) the passing of an ordinary resolution to approve the Share Consolidation by the Shareholders at the AGM;
(ii) the GEM Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange granting approval for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective; and
(iii) the compliance with the relevant procedures and requirements under the laws of the Cayman Islands (where applicable) and the GEM Listing Rules to effect the Share Consolidation.
Subject to the fulfilment of the conditions above, the Share Consolidation will become effective on the second business day immediately after the AGM, i.e. Tuesday, 30 June 2026.
Listing Application
An application will be made by the Company to the GEM Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for approval for the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective.
Subject to the granting of the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares on the Stock Exchange, as well as compliance with the stock admission requirements of the HKSCC, upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the Consolidated Shares will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance and settlement in CCASS with effect from the commencement date of dealings in the Consolidated Shares on the Stock Exchange or such other date as determined by HKSCC. Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in CCASS on the second settlement day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and HKSCC Operational Procedures in effect from time to time. All necessary arrangements will be made for the Consolidated Shares to be admitted into CCASS established and operated by HKSCC.
- 9 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
None of the Existing Shares or any other equity or debt securities in issue of the Company are listed or dealt in on any other stock exchanges other than the Stock Exchange, and at the time when the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the Consolidated Shares in issue will not be listed or dealt in on any stock exchange other than the Stock Exchange, and no such listing or permission to deal in is being or is proposed to be sought.
Other securities of the Company
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the authorised share capital of the Company included 2,000,000,000 Preferred Shares with a par value of HK$0.005 each and no Preferred Shares have been issued to date. The Company does not propose any share consolidation on the unissued Preferred Shares. Upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the number of unissued Preferred Shares and their par value shall remain unaffected.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company did not have any outstanding options, warrants or other securities in issue which are convertible into or giving rights to subscribe for, convert or exchange into, any Existing Shares or Consolidated Shares (as the case may be).
Fractional entitlement to Consolidated Shares
Fractional Consolidated Shares arising from the Share Consolidation entitled by a holder of the Existing Shares, if any, will be disregarded and will not be issued to the Shareholders but all such fractional Consolidated Shares will be aggregated and, if possible, sold for the benefit of the Company. Fractional Consolidated Shares will only arise in respect of the entire shareholding of a holder of the Shares regardless of the number of share certificates held by such holder.
Shareholders who are concerned about losing out on any fractional entitlement are recommended to consult their licensed securities dealer, bank manager, solicitor, professional accountant or other professional adviser and may wish to consider the possibility of buying or selling Existing Shares in a number sufficient to make up an entitlement to receive a whole number of Consolidated Shares.
Arrangement on odd lot trading
In order to facilitate the trading of odd lots (if any) of the Consolidated Shares arising from the Share Consolidation, the Company has appointed Lego Securities Limited as an agent to provide a matching service, on a best efforts basis, to those Shareholders who wish to acquire odd lots of the Consolidated Shares to make up a full board lot, or to dispose of their holding of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares, during the period from 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, 15 July 2026 to 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, 4 August 2026 (both days inclusive). Shareholders who wish to take advantage of this facility should contact Mr. Li at Room 1506, 15/F, Wheelock House, 20 Pedder Street, Central, Hong Kong or at telephone number: +852 2128 9433 during

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
office hours (i.e. 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.) of such period. Shareholders who would like to match odd lots are recommended to make an appointment in advance by dialing the telephone number of +852 2128 9433 set out above.
Holders of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares should note that matching of the sale or purchase of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares is not guaranteed. Shareholders who are in any doubt about this arrangement should consult their professional advisers.
Shareholders or potential investors of the Company should note that (i) odd lots will be created after the Share Consolidation; (ii) odd lots arrangements do not guarantee successful matching of all odd lots at the relevant market price; and (iii) odd lots might be sold below the market price.
Exchange of Share Certificates
Subject to the Share Consolidation having become effective, Shareholders may, during the period from 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, 30 June 2026 to 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, 6 August 2026 (both days inclusive), submit the existing share certificates in blue colour for the Existing Shares to the Company's branch share registrar and transfer office in Hong Kong, Tricor Investor Services Limited at 17/F, Far East Finance Centre, 16 Harcourt Road, Hong Kong, to exchange, at the expense of the Company, for new share certificates for the Consolidated Shares in orange colour.
Thereafter, existing share certificates for Existing Shares will continue to be good evidence of legal title and may be exchanged for new share certificates for Consolidated Shares at the expense of the Shareholders on payment of a fee of HK$2.50 (or such higher amount as may be allowed by the Stock Exchange from time to time) for each existing share certificate cancelled or each new share certificate issued for Consolidated Shares (whichever the number of share certificate cancelled/issued is higher) but are not acceptable for delivery, trading and settlement purposes.
No Change in Board Lot Size
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Existing Shares were traded on the Stock Exchange in board lot size of 5,000 Existing Shares. Upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the board lot size for trading on the Stock Exchange will remain at 5,000 Consolidated Shares.
Reason for the Share Consolidation
Pursuant to Rule 17.76 of the GEM Listing Rules, where the market price of the securities of an issuer approaches the extremities of HK$0.01 or HK$9,995.00, the issuer may be required either to change the trading method or to proceed with a consolidation or splitting of its securities. Further, pursuant to the "Guide on Trading Arrangements for Selected Types of Corporate Actions" issued by Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited on 28 November 2008 and last updated in September 2024, (i) market price of the Shares at a level less than HK$0.10 will be considered as
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
trading at extremity as referred to under Rule 17.76 of the GEM Listing Rules; and (ii) taking into account the minimum transaction costs for a securities trade, the expected board lot value per board lot should be greater than HK$2,000. As the Existing Shares have been trading below HK$0.4 since June 2017, the value per board lot has substantially fallen below HK$2,000 for over ten years. As such, the Board proposes to implement the Share Consolidation in order to comply with the trading requirements of the GEM Listing Rules.
Based on the closing price of HK$0.012 per Existing Share (equivalent to the theoretical closing price of HK$0.6 per Consolidated Share upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective) as quoted on the Stock Exchange as at the Latest Practicable Date, (i) the value of each board lot of 5,000 Existing Shares was HK$60; and (ii) the value of each board lot of 5,000 Consolidated Shares, assuming the Share Consolidation had already been effective, would be HK$3,000.
The Board considers that the Share Consolidation will enable the Company to comply with the trading requirements under the GEM Listing Rules in the long run and will reduce the overall transaction and handling costs of dealing in the Shares as a proportion of the market value of each board lot, since most of the banks/securities houses will charge a minimum transaction costs for each securities trade.
With a corresponding upward adjustment in the trading price of the Consolidated Shares, it is believed that the Share Consolidation will maintain the trading amount for each board lot at a reasonable level and make investing in the Shares more attractive to a broader range of investors, and thus further broaden the shareholder base of the Company.
Other than the expenses to be incurred in relation to the Share Consolidation, the implementation of the Share Consolidation will not, by itself, alter the underlying assets, business operation, management or financial position of the Group or the proportionate interests or rights of the Shareholders. The Board believes that the Share Consolidation will not have any material adverse effect on the financial position of the Group nor result in change in the relative rights of the Shareholders, save for any fractional Consolidated Shares to which Shareholders may otherwise be entitled.
In view of the above reasons, the Company considers that the Share Consolidation is justifiable to achieve the above-mentioned purposes notwithstanding the potential costs and impact arising from creation of odd lots to Shareholders. Taking into account the potential benefits and the insignificant amount of costs to be incurred, the Board is of the view that the Share Consolidation are beneficial to and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, save for the Share Consolidation, the Company had no intention to carry out other corporate actions or arrangements, in the next 12 months, which may have an effect of undermining or negating the intended purpose of the Share Consolidation.
- 12 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The Company does not have any other concrete plan or arrangement to conduct any other fund raising activities in the next 12 months. However, the Board cannot rule out the possibility that the Company will conduct debt and/or equity fund raising exercises when suitable fund raising and/or investment opportunities arise in order to meet its operational needs or support future development of the Group. The Company will make further announcement in this regard in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules as and when appropriate.
Equity Fund Raising Activities in the Past Twelve Months
The Company has not conducted any equity fund-raising activity in the past 12 months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date.
Competing Business
As far as the Directors are aware of, none of the Directors, the controlling Shareholders of the Company or their respective close associates has any business or interest that competes or may compete with the business of the Group and any other conflicts of interests which any such person has or may have with the Group.

Yours faithfully
By order of the Board

Chairman and Executive Director
APPENDIX I
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE
This Appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by Rule 13.08 of the GEM Listing Rules, to provide requisite information as to the proposed Repurchase Mandate.
1. GEM LISTING RULES RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE OF SHARES
The GEM Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listing is on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their shares on the Stock Exchange and any other stock exchange on which the securities of the company are listed and such exchange is recognised by the SFC subject to certain restrictions. Among such restrictions, the GEM Listing Rules provide that the shares of such company must be fully paid up and all repurchase of shares by such company must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution of its shareholders, either by way of a general repurchase mandate or by specific approval of a particular transaction.
For any treasury Shares deposited with CCASS pending resale on the Stock Exchange, the Company shall, upon approval by the Board, implement the below interim measures which include (without limitation):
i) procuring its broker not to give any instructions to HKSCC to vote at general meetings for the treasury Shares deposited with CCASS;
ii) in the case of dividends or distributions (if any and where applicable), withdrawing the treasury Shares from CCASS, and either re-register them in its own name as treasury Shares or cancel them, in each case before the relevant record date for the dividend or distributions; and
iii) taking any other measures to ensure that it will not exercise any Shareholders' rights or receive any entitlements which would otherwise be suspended under the applicable laws if those Shares were registered in its own name as treasury Shares.
2. SHARE CAPITAL
As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were a total of 4,686,048,350 Shares in issue (excluding treasury Shares, if any). Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the AGM, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 468,604,835 Shares.
3. REASONS OF THE PROPOSED REPURCHASE
The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to seek a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase the Shares on the Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. When exercising the Repurchase Mandate, the Directors may, subject to market conditions and the Company's capital management needs at the relevant time of the repurchases, resolve to cancel the Shares repurchased following settlement of any such repurchase or hold them as treasury Shares. Such repurchases for cancellation may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an
APPENDIX I
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE
enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share. On the other hand, Shares repurchased and held by the Company as treasury Shares may be resold on the market at market prices to raise funds for the Company, or transferred or used for other purposes, subject to compliance with the Articles and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the GEM Listing Rules. Share repurchases will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
4. PROPOSED SOURCE OF FUNDS
Repurchase made pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate will be funded out of funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Articles and the laws of the Cayman Islands. A listed company may not repurchase its own securities on the Stock Exchange for a consideration other than cash or for settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Stock Exchange.
Taking into account the current working capital position of the Company, the Directors consider if the Repurchase Mandate was to be exercised in full, it might have a material adverse effect on the working capital and/or the gearing position of the Company as compared with its position as at 31 December 2025, being the date of its latest published audited consolidated financial statements. However, the Directors do not intend to make any repurchases to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital and/or the gearing position of the Company which, in the opinion of the Directors, are from time to time appropriate for the Company.
5. THE TAKEOVERS CODE AND PUBLIC FLOAT
If a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases upon the Company exercising its powers to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code.
The Directors have no present intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that would result in general offer obligations under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code being triggered or the number of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25%.
