EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR REPURCHASE GENERAL MANDATE
APPENDIX III
Appendix III serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide the requisite information to enable you to make an informed decision on whether to for, against or abstain from the special resolution to grant to the Board the Repurchase General Mandate.
Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited and The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited take no responsibility for the contents of this document, make no representation as to its accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaim any liability whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this document.
LISTING RULES RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE OF SECURITIES
The Listing Rules permit companies with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their securities on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions, the most important of which are summarized below. The Company is empowered by the Articles of Association to repurchase its securities.
Registered Capital
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the registered capital of the Company was RMB2,236,042,500, comprising 1,629,000,000 Domestic Shares and 607,042,500 H Shares. Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the Repurchase General Mandate and on the basis that no Domestic Shares and/or H Shares will be allotted, issued or repurchased by the Company on or prior to the date of the AGM, the Domestic Share Class Meeting and the H Share Class Meeting, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase General Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 60,704,250 H Shares, being the maximum of 10% of the aggregate nominal value of H Shares in issue as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution.
Reasons for Repurchase
The Directors consider that the Repurchase General Mandate is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. An exercise of the Repurchase General Mandate may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share. The Repurchase General Mandate will only be exercised when the Directors believe that such repurchase will benefit the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.
Funding of Repurchase
In repurchasing H Shares, the Company may only apply funds from the Company’s internal resources legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association, the Listing Rules and the applicable laws, regulations and rules of the PRC, including but not limited to surplus funds and undistributed profits of the Company.
– 22 –
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR REPURCHASE GENERAL MANDATE
APPENDIX III
Taking into account the current good working capital position of the Company, the Directors consider that, if the Repurchase General Mandate were to be exercised in full, it would not have a material adverse effect on the working capital and/or the gearing position of the Company (as compared with its financial position as of 31 December 2022 as disclosed in the latest published audited accounts contained in the 2022 annual report of the Company). However, the Directors do not propose to repurchase Shares to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company. The number of H Shares to be repurchased on any occasion and the price and other terms upon which the same are repurchased will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time having regard to the circumstances then prevailing, in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
Status of Repurchase of H shares
The Listing Rules provide that all H Shares repurchased by the Company shall be automatically canceled and the relevant share certificates for such repurchased H Shares shall be canceled and destroyed. The registered capital of the Company shall be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate nominal value of such canceled H Shares.
H share prices
The highest and lowest prices at which the H Shares were traded on the Stock Exchange during each month from July 2022 to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:
| H Shares (HKD) | ||
|---|---|---|
| Month | Highest | Lowest |
| 2022 | ||
| July | 1.82 | 1.40 |
| August | 1.88 | 1.16 |
| September | 1.25 | 0.80 |
| October | 1.08 | 0.77 |
| November | 0.90 | 0.66 |

| From 1 April to the Latest Practicable Date | 1.00 | 0.84 |

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR REPURCHASE GENERAL MANDATE
APPENDIX III
Directors’ Undertaking
The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the power of the Company to make repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase General Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, the Articles of Association and the applicable laws, regulations and requirements of the PRC.
Disclosure of Interest
None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, their close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules), have any present intention to sell any H Shares to the Company if the Repurchase General Mandate is approved at the AGM, the Domestic Share Class Meeting and the H Share Class Meeting, respectively.
No core connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell any H Shares held by them to the Company, or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase General Mandate is approved.
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 General Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert could obtain or consolidate control of our Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.
As of the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Directors, Shaanxi Automobile Holding Group Co., Ltd. (“ Shaanxi Automobile Holding ”) was the controlling shareholder of the Company, directly and indirectly holding 72.85% of the total issued share capital of the Company. The Company does not expect that the exercise of the Repurchase General Mandate in full will have any impact on the Takeovers Code. Assuming that there is no issue of Domestic Shares and H Shares between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of a repurchase, to the best knowledge and belief of the Directors, an exercise of the Repurchase General Mandate in whole or in part will not result in the percentage of Shares in the public hands falling below the relevant prescribed minimum percentage as required by the Stock Exchange.
In addition, the Directors will not repurchase Shares on the Stock Exchange if the repurchase would result in a breach of Rule 8.08 of the Listing Rules.
SECURITIES REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY
The Company did not repurchase any H Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) during the six months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date.
