Pursuant to the Articles of Association, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the AGM to approve the profit distribution plan of the Company for the year 2025.

After comprehensive consideration of the Company’s current operating conditions, cash flow arrangements, future business development and capital requirements, and in order to maintain financial stability and safeguard the Company’s continuous operation and long-term development, it is recommended that no cash dividend shall be declared, no bonus shares shall be issued, and no capital reserve shall be converted into share capital for the year 2025.

(5) The annual financial budget of the Company for the year 2026

The annual financial budget of the Company for the year 2026 has been prepared on the basis of a thorough review of the 2025 operating results, an analysis of the 2026 business outlook, adherence to the principles of prudence and objectivity, and projections of the Company’s operating performance for 2026.

This budget report is only used as a basis for the measurement of the Company’s internal business plan targets and the assessment of operating results. It does not constitute a commitment by the Company regarding its profit forecast or operating performance for 2026. Its realization is subject to various factors including the economic environment, changes in market conditions, and the efforts of the management team, and therefore involves uncertainties.

This budget is formulated based on the projected market scale and the Company’s anticipated market share for 2026, assuming the following conditions will be satisfied in 2026:

(a) No material changes to relevant laws and regulations, various taxation policies and accounting policies;

(c) The scope of this budget covers the parent company and its subsidiaries within the scope of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

An ordinary resolution will be proposed at the AGM to consider and approve the remuneration plan for the Directors for the year ending 31 December 2026 formulated in accordance with the Company’s internal policies and relevant regulatory requirements.

The remuneration committee of the Board has made appropriate adjustments by referring to the remuneration levels of independent non-executive directors and non-executive directors of comparable listed companies in the market, the Company’s operating scale, the time spent and scope of duties performed by such Directors, as well as their degree of participation in the Company’s corporate governance. It is proposed to newly formulate the Directors’ allowance standards, which are set out as follows:

  1. The proposed annual allowance for independent non-executive Directors, Dr. Li Xiaoyuan, Prof. Tan Guangrong and Mr. Zhang Jiangang, is RMB150,000 per annum (pre-tax).
  2. The proposed annual allowance for non-executive Director, Dr. Li Zhiyong, is RMB150,000 per annum (pre-tax).

The executive Directors, Dr. Ma Wei and Dr. Albert S. Hu, and the non-executive Directors, Prof. Li Zexiang and Ms. Yang Xi, shall not receive any Directors’ fees for their roles as Directors, but shall be entitled to remuneration based on their other employment positions and duties in the Company and in accordance with the Company’s internal policies.

(7) Ratification of auditor of the Company for the year 2025

An ordinary resolution will be proposed at the AGM to consider and approve the ratification of BDO Limited as auditor of the Company for the year 2025 and its remuneration of RMB2 million (such remuneration is also set out in the Company’s 2025 annual report).

(8) Re-appointment of auditor of the Company for the year 2026

The Company will propose an ordinary resolution at the AGM to consider and approve the re-appointment of BDO Limited as the auditor of the Company for the year 2026 and to authorize the Board to determine its remuneration.

The estimated annual audit fee payable to BDO Limited for the year 2026 is expected to be in the range of approximately RMB1.8 million to RMB2.2 million (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses), which is determined after due consideration and arm’s length negotiations between the Company and BDO Limited, taking into account, among other things, the size and complexity of the Company’s business operations, the expected scope of the audit, the audit timetable, the level and mix of professional staff to be deployed, the anticipated audit workload, and prevailing market rates for comparable services.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The estimated audit fee also assumes that there will be no material change in the Company's operations, accounting policies or regulatory environment during the financial year, and that the Company will provide timely and adequate assistance and information as reasonably required for the purpose of the audit.

Unless there is a material change in the basis or assumptions set out above, the final audit fee should not deviate materially from the estimated amount initially disclosed. In the event of any material change, the Company will make further disclosure as appropriate.

(10) Proposed grant of general mandate to the Board to issue Shares

A special resolution will be proposed at the AGM to grant to the Board a general mandate to allot, issue or otherwise deal with additional Shares (including any sale or transfer of treasury shares out of treasury) not exceeding 20% of the total number of Shares in issue (excluding treasury shares, if any) as at the date of passing this special resolution, and to authorize the Board to make amendments to the Articles of Association as it thinks fit so as to reflect the new share capital structure upon the allotment or issue of additional Shares pursuant to such mandate.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The number of the total issued Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) as at the Latest Practicable Date was 437,893,100 Shares, comprising 13,454,180 Domestic Shares and 424,438,920 H Shares, respectively. Assuming that the number of issued Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) remains unchanged as at the date of passing this special resolution, the Board will be allowed under the Issue Mandate to allot, issue or otherwise deal with (or sell or transfer (in the case of treasury shares)) a maximum of 87,578,620 Shares, subject to the passing of the special resolution approving the grant of the Issue Mandate to the Board. Meanwhile, the Board is authorized to make necessary amendments to the Articles of Association so as to reflect the new share capital structure upon the allotment or issue of additional Shares pursuant to such mandate.

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to grant the Issue Mandate to the Board to issue new Shares (including any sale or transfer of treasury shares out of treasury). Whilst it is not possible to anticipate in advance any special circumstances in which the Board might think it appropriate to issue Shares (including any sale or transfer of treasury shares out of treasury), the ability to do so would give the Directors the flexibility to capture the opportunity if it so arises.

The Issue Mandate would expire on the earlier of: (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company following the passing of this special resolution; (b) the expiration of 12 months after the passing of this special resolution at the AGM; or (c) the date on which the authorization set out in the special resolution is revoked or varied by a special resolution at any general meeting of the Company.

(11) Proposed grant of general mandate to the Board to repurchase H Shares

A special resolution will be proposed at the AGM to grant to the Board the general mandate to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase H Shares during the "relevant period" representing up to the limit of 10% of the total number of issued H Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) as at the date of passing this resolution at the AGM, to determine the terms and conditions for the repurchase of H Shares, and to authorize the Board to do all such deeds, acts, matters and business necessary or desirable for the purpose of or in connection with the exercise of the general mandate to repurchase H Shares.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had 424,438,920 H Shares in issue. Assuming that such number of H Shares remains the same as at the date of passing this special resolution, pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, the Board would be allowed to repurchase a maximum of 42,443,892 H Shares, subject to the passing of the special resolution approving the grant of the Repurchase Mandate to the Board.

After the Repurchase Mandate is approved at the AGM, the Board may determine the terms and conditions for the repurchase of H Shares, including but not limited to the following: (i) purpose of the proposed repurchase of H Shares; (ii) the number of H Shares to be repurchased; (iii) time, price and duration of repurchase of H Shares; and (iv) to perform the approval, filing and information disclosure (if any) in relation to the repurchase of H Shares.

In exercising the general mandate to repurchase H Shares, the Board shall (i) comply with the relevant requirements of the PRC Company Law, the relevant requirements of the CSRC and the Stock Exchange (as amended from time to time), and (ii) obtain the approval from the CSRC and other relevant PRC government authorities (if any).

  • 11 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

This mandate remains valid during the relevant period. The "relevant period" mentioned above refers to the period from the passing of the general mandate to repurchase H Shares after approval by the Shareholders at the AGM until the expiry of the earlier of: (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company following the passing of this special resolution; (ii) the expiration of 12 months after the passing of this special resolution at the AGM; or (iii) the date on which the general mandate set out in this special resolution is revoked or varied by a special resolution at any general meeting of the Company.

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to grant a general mandate to the Board to repurchase H Shares. The Board will act prudently and flexibly in accordance with relevant laws, regulations and regulatory rules and in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

A special resolution will be proposed at the AGM to grant to the Board the Repurchase Mandate.

The Appendix I to this circular is an explanatory statement which contains details pursuant to Rule 10.06(1)(b) of the Listing Rules for the purpose of enabling Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the proposed resolution of the grant of the general mandate to repurchase H Shares.

(12) Proposed adoption of the H Share Incentive Scheme and authorization to the Board to handle related matters

Pursuant to the Articles of Association, the adoption of the H Share Incentive Scheme is subject to Shareholders' approval. The Board has resolved to propose the adoption of the H Share Incentive Scheme and to seek Shareholders' approval for, amongst other things, the adoption of the H Share Incentive Scheme, and to authorise the Board and/or its authorised persons to carry out all acts and procedures necessary for the implementation of the H Share Incentive Scheme, including but not limited to: (1) the appointment of qualified trustees; (2) execution of all trust instruments; (3) instruct the trustees to acquire such H Shares; (4) grant incentive shares to those eligible participants selected; (5) determine the terms and conditions of incentive shares granted under the H Share Incentive Scheme including but not limited to number of incentive shares, purchase price, vesting dates, vesting criteria, performance targets, clawback arrangements and other conditions; (6) approve the form of grant instrument; (7) decide how the vesting of the incentive shares will be settled pursuant to the rules of the H Share Incentive Scheme; (8) make such appropriate and equitable adjustments to the terms of incentive shares granted under the H Share Incentive Scheme as they deem necessary; (9) determine the commencement or termination date of the incentive shares subject to the commencement or termination of an eligible participant's employment with any member of the Group; (10) take such other steps or actions as they deem necessary or prudent to give effect to the terms and intent of the rules of the H Share Incentive Scheme and/or incentive shares; and (11) on behalf of the Company, approve, execute, refine, deliver, negotiate, agree on and agree to all such agreements, contracts, documents, regulations, matters and things (as the case may be) as they deem reasonable, necessary, desirable, appropriate or expedient, in order to give effect to and/or implement all transactions conducted accordingly, and make any reasonable alterations, amendments, changes, modifications and/or supplements as they deem necessary, desirable, appropriate or expedient.

On a poll, every Shareholder present in person or by proxy (or being a corporation by its duly authorized representative) shall have one vote for each Share registered in his/her/its name in the register of members of the Company. A Shareholder entitled to more than one vote needs not use all his/her/its votes or cast all the votes he/she/it has in the same manner.

RECOMMENDATION

The Board considers that each ordinary resolution and special resolution to be proposed at the AGM is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole, and accordingly recommends the Shareholders to vote in favour of all the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This explanatory statement contains all the information required pursuant to Rule 10.06(1)(b) of the Listing Rules to be given to the Shareholders relating to the proposed Repurchase Mandate which is set out as follows:

  1. REASONS FOR REPURCHASE OF H SHARES

To enable the Board to repurchase H Shares within a short period of time in appropriate circumstances to seek the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders and to protect the interests of investors, it is proposed that a general mandate be granted to the Board to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase H Shares. Such repurchases will, depending on market conditions, be made when the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

  1. NUMBER OF H SHARES PROPOSED TO BE REPURCHASED

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the total number of issued H Shares was 424,438,920 and the Company did not have any treasury shares. Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further H Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the AGM, if repurchased in full, the number of H Shares that may be repurchased shall not exceed 42,443,892, representing approximately 10% of the total number of H Shares in issue (excluding treasury shares, if any) as at the Latest Practicable Date. The specific number of H Shares to be repurchased shall be subject to the actual number of H Shares to be repurchased at the expiry of the repurchase period.

  1. SOURCE OF FUNDING

In repurchasing H Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association, the applicable laws of the PRC and the Listing Rules, as the case may be. The Directors propose that such share buy-backs, if and when effected, would be appropriately financed by the Company's internal resources.

  1. EFFECT ON WORKING CAPITAL

As compared with the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2025 (being the date to which the latest audited accounts of the Company have been made up), the Directors consider that there would not be a material adverse impact on the working capital or the gearing position of the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate were to be exercised in full during the proposed repurchase period.

  • I-1 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

5. H SHARE PRICES

The highest and lowest prices at which the H Shares have been traded on the Stock Exchange from the Listing Date and up to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

| Month | Highest prices
HK$ | Lowest prices
HK$ |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2025 | | |
| December (from the Listing Date) | 263.00 | 217.80 |
| 2026 | | |
| January | 268.40 | 198.80 |
| February | 247.00 | 208.00 |
| March^{(Note)} | 27.52 | 20.00 |
| April | 40.88 | 21.04 |
| May (up to the Latest Practicable Date) | 28.60 | 23.72 |

Note: On 2 March 2026, each H Share with a par value of RMB1.00 was subdivided into ten (10) subdivided H Shares with a par value of RMB0.10 each. The share prices from December 2025 to February 2026 as set out in the table above are the share prices of the H Shares before the share subdivision, while the share prices from March 2026 to May 2026 are the share prices of the subdivided H Shares.

6. EFFECT OF THE TAKEOVERS CODE

If a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases as a result of the Directors exercising the power of the Company to repurchase H Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such an increase will be treated as an acquisition of the voting rights pursuant to Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning of the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase of the Shareholder’s interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Prof. Li Zexiang through his direct or indirect interests in NovoDriv (HK) Limited Partnership, NovoDriv Limited, Changsha Gangwan Investment Partnership (Limited Partnership) (長沙港灣投資合夥企業(有限合夥)), Dongguan Wanqu Intelligence Technology Co., Ltd. (東莞灣區智能科技有限公司), CWB Startup Invest HK Limited, Clear Water Bay Startup Fund GP, Clear Water Bay Startup Fund LP, Changsha Shengyu Private Equity Fund Enterprise (Limited Partnership) (長沙晟譽私募股權基金企業(有限合夥)) and Dongguan Yunhe Equity Investment Co., Ltd. (東莞蘊和股權投資有限公司), is entitled to exercise the voting rights of 167,501,300 H Shares, which account for approximately $38.25\%$ of the Company’s total issued share capital (excluding treasury shares, if any). In the event that the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full, the proportion of the interest of the voting rights held by Prof. Li Zexiang and his controlled companies in the Company to the total share capital of the Company (excluding treasury shares, if any) will therefore increase to approximately $42.36\%$, and such increase will result in an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

– I-2 –


APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The Directors have no present intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase H Shares to such an extent as would give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. Save as disclosed above, the Directors are not aware that any repurchases to be made under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase H Shares will give rise to any consequences under the Takeovers Code and/or any similar applicable laws. Furthermore, the Directors will not repurchase H Shares on the Stock Exchange if such repurchase would violate the requirements under Rule 8.08 of the Listing Rules.

7. STATUS OF REPURCHASED H SHARES

The Company may cancel any H Shares it repurchased or hold them as treasury shares of the Company subject to market conditions and the Group’s capital management needs at the relevant time of the repurchases.

For the treasury shares of the Company deposited with CCASS pending resale on the Stock Exchange, the Company shall:

(i) procure its broker not to give any instructions to Hong Kong Securities Clearing Company Limited to vote at the general meetings of the Company;

(ii) in the case of dividends or distributions, withdraw the treasury shares of the Company from CCASS, and either re-register them in its own name as treasury shares or cancel them, in each case before the record date for the dividends or distributions; and

(iii) take any other appropriate 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 H Shares were registered in its own name as treasury shares.

8. SECURITIES REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

During the period from the Listing Date and up to the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had not purchased any H Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise).

9. GENERAL INFORMATION

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) have any present intention to sell any H Shares to the Company in the event that the proposed share repurchase and the granting of the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase H Shares are approved by the Shareholders.


APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The Company has not been notified by any core connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company that they have a present intention to sell any H Shares, or that they have undertaken not to sell any H Shares held by them to the Company in the event that the proposed share repurchase and the granting of the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase H Shares are approved by the Shareholders.

The Directors will exercise the power of the Company to repurchase H Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws and regulations of the PRC.

The Directors confirm that neither this explanatory statement nor the proposed Repurchase Mandate has any unusual features.
