華福國際
HUAFU INTERNATIONAL
On 15 May 2026 (after trading hours), the Placing Agent and the Company entered into the Placing Agreement pursuant to which the Placing Agent has conditionally agreed, as agent of the Company, to procure, on a best effort basis, not less than six Placees who and whose ultimate beneficial owners shall be Independent Third Parties to subscribe for up to 48,970,000 Placing Shares at the Placing Price of HK$1.08 per Placing Share. The Placing Shares will be allotted and issued pursuant to the General Mandate granted to the Directors at the AGM held on 20 June 2025.
Assuming that there will be no change in the issued share capital of the Company between the date of this announcement and the completion of the Placing, the maximum number of Placing Shares under the Placing represent (i) approximately $20.00\%$ of the existing issued share capital of the Company of 244,888,185 Shares as at the date of this announcement; and (ii) approximately $16.66\%$ of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the allotment and issue of the Placing Shares. The aggregate nominal value of the maximum number of Placing Shares under the Placing will be HK$4,897,000.
The Placing Price of HK$1.08 per Placing Share represents (i) a discount of approximately 19.40% to the closing price of HK$1.340 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the date of the Placing Agreement; and (ii) a discount of approximately 16.80% to the average closing price of HK$1.298 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five trading days immediately prior to the date of the Placing Agreement.
Subject to completion of the Placing, it is expected that the maximum gross proceeds and net proceeds (after deducting the placing commission and all related expenses) from the Placing will be approximately HK$52.89 million and HK$52.27 million respectively. On such basis, the net issue price will be approximately HK$1.067 per Placing Share.
Since completion of the Placing is subject to the fulfilment of the conditions as set out in the Placing Agreement, the Placing may or may not proceed. Shareholders and potential investors are reminded to exercise caution when dealing in the Shares.
PLACING OF NEW SHARES UNDER GENERAL MANDATE
On 15 May 2026 (after trading hours), the Placing Agent and the Company entered into the Placing Agreement pursuant to which the Placing Agent has conditionally agreed, as agent of the Company, to procure, on a best effort basis, not less than six Placees who and whose ultimate beneficial owners shall be Independent Third Parties to subscribe for up to 48,970,000 Placing Shares at the Placing Price of HK$1.08 per Placing Share.
The principal terms of the Placing Agreement are set out below.
The Placing Agreement
Date: 15 May 2026
Parties: the Company; and
the Placing Agent, an independent Third Party
Pursuant to the terms of the Placing Agreement, the Placing Agent has conditionally agreed, as agent of the Company, to procure, on a best effort basis, not less than six Placees who and whose ultimate beneficial owners shall be Independent Third Parties to subscribe for up to 48,970,000 Placing Shares at the Placing Price of HK$1.08 per Placing Share. The terms of the Placing Agreement were arrived at after arm's length negotiations between the Company and the Placing Agent under normal commercial terms and with reference to the prevailing market conditions. The Directors are of the view that the terms of the Placing Agreement are fair and reasonable based on current market conditions.
To the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, the Placing Agent and its ultimate beneficial owner(s) are Independent Third Parties.

Placing Commission
Subject to completion of the Placing, the Company shall pay to the Placing Agent a placing commission (i) equivalent to 0.8% of the aggregate Placing Price of the number of Placing Shares actually placed by the Placing Agent in the Placing or (ii) of HK$380,000 (whichever is higher). The placing commission was determined after arm's length negotiations between the Company and the Placing Agent. The Directors consider that the placing commission in respect of the Placing is fair and reasonable based on the current market condition.
Placees
The Placing Agent will, on a best effort basis, place the Placing Shares to not less than six Placees, who and whose ultimate beneficial owner(s) (if applicable) shall be Independent Third Parties during the Placing Period. It is expected that none of the Placees nor their associates will become a substantial shareholder (as defined under the Listing Rules) of the Company as a result of the Placing.
Number of the Placing Shares
Assuming that there will be no change in the issued share capital of the Company between the date of this announcement and the completion of the Placing, the maximum number of Placing Shares under the Placing represent (i) approximately 20.00% of the existing issued share capital of the Company of 244,888,185 Shares as at the date of this announcement; and (ii) approximately 16.66% of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the allotment and issue of the Placing Shares. The aggregate nominal value of the maximum number of Placing Shares under the Placing will be HK$4,897,000.
Ranking of the Placing Shares
The Placing Shares under the Placing will rank, upon allotment and issue, pari passu in all respects with the Shares in issue on the date of allotment and issue of the Placing Shares.
Placing Price
The Placing Price of HK$1.08 per Placing Share represents (i) a discount of approximately 19.40% to the closing price of HK$1.34 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the date of the Placing Agreement; and (ii) a discount of approximately 16.80% to the average closing price of HK$1.298 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five trading days immediately prior to the date of the Placing Agreement.
The Placing Price of the Placing was determined with reference to the prevailing market prices of the Shares and was negotiated on an arm's length basis between the Company and the Placing Agent. The Directors consider that the terms of the Placing are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable based on the current market conditions. Hence, the Placing is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
Subject to completion of the Placing, it is expected that the maximum gross proceeds and net proceeds (after deducting the placing commission and all related expenses) from the Placing will be approximately HK$52.89 million and HK$52.27 million respectively. On such basis, the net issue price will be approximately HK$1.067 per Placing Share.
General Mandate to Allot and Issue of the Placing Shares
The Placing Shares will be allotted and issued pursuant to the General Mandate. The maximum number of Shares that can be issued under the General Mandate is 48,977,637 Shares. As at the date of this announcement, no part of the General Mandate has been utilized and hence the General Mandate is sufficient for the allotment and issuance of the Placing Shares. Therefore, the issue of the Placing Shares is not subject to further Shareholders’ approval.

An application will be made by the Company to the Stock Exchange for the grant of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Placing Shares.

It is expected that the maximum gross proceeds and net proceeds (after deducting the placing commission and related expenses) from the Placing will be approximately HK$52.89 million and HK$52.27 million respectively.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Placing of approximately HK$52.27 million would be used (1) as to 80% (equivalent to HK$41.81 million) for operating expenses related to hardware and software services in the PRC, such as the procurement of goods; and (2) as to 20% (equivalent to HK$10.46 million) for the Group’s general working capital, in which 70% (equivalent to HK$7.32 million) for staff costs, 10% (equivalent to HK$1.05 million) for professional service fees, and 20% (equivalent to HK$2.09 million) for daily administrative expenses.
