DISCLOSEABLE TRANSACTION ACQUISITIONS OF LISTED SECURITIES

THE ACQUISITIONS

Through a series of acquisitions on 22 December 2017, the Company further acquired on the open market a total of 4,158,500 SMIC Shares at an aggregate consideration of approximately HK$49,368,100 (exclusive of transaction costs). The average price (exclusive of transaction costs) for the Acquisitions of each SMIC Share is approximately HK$11.87.

THE IMPLICATION OF LISTING RULES

One of the applicable percentage ratios for the Acquisitions, when aggregated with the Previous Acquisitions which were conducted within 12 months of the Acquisitions and without netting off of any SMIC Shares disposed in the Previous Disposals, exceeds 5% but are less than 25%. As such, the Acquisitions, when aggregated with the Previous Acquisitions, constitute a discloseable transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules, and are therefore subject to the reporting and announcement requirements of the Listing Rules.

THE ACQUISITIONS

The average price (exclusive of transaction costs) for the Acquisitions of each SMIC Share is approximately HK$11.87. The price the Company paid for in each transaction was the market price of the SMIC Share and settled in cash from internal resources of the Company.

As the Acquisitions were made through the open market, the Company is not aware of the identities of the sellers of the SMIC Shares. To the best knowledge, information and belief of the Directors having made all reasonable enquiries, the sellers of SMIC Shares are Independent Third Parties.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE ACQUISITIONS

The Group is principally engaged in design, manufacture and distribution of SMT product and related equipment, finance lease and factoring and financial investment.

As disclosed in the Company’s annual report for the nine months ended 31 December 2016 issued on 27 April 2017, the Company has commenced principal trading activities during the nine months ended 31 December 2016. The Group has established and performed a low frequency trading strategy with respect to its financial investments and diversified its investments among and within the listed shares of HKEX listed companies in high-tech industry including telecommunication, semiconductor, internet, computers and/or software.

Having considered the financial performance of SMIC, the Company considers that the acquisitions of SMIC Shares are attractive investment and can enhance the returns on investment for the Company.

As the Acquisitions were made at market price, the Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the Acquisitions were fair and reasonable, on normal commercial terms and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
