(3) PROPOSED CHANGE OF AUDITOR;
(4) AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION AND PROPOSED ADOPTION OF THE FIFTH AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION; AND

INTRODUCTION

The primary purposes of this circular are to provide you with information regarding certain ordinary and special resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to enable Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against those resolutions and to give you notice of the Annual General Meeting.

The resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting, in addition to ordinary business, include (i) the proposed grant of the General Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate and the Extension Mandate; (ii) the proposed re-election of Directors; (iii) the proposed change of auditor; and (iv) the proposed amendments to the existing Articles of Association and adoption of the Fifth Amended and Restated Articles of Association.

PROPOSED GRANT OF GENERAL MANDATE, REPURCHASE MANDATE AND EXTENSION MANDATE

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to grant to the Directors a general and unconditional mandate to issue, allot and deal with further Shares representing up to 20% of the number of issued Shares excluding Treasury Shares as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution.

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to grant to the Directors a general and unconditional mandate to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase issued Shares. The maximum number of Shares that may be repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate will be such number which represents 10% of the number of issued Shares excluding Treasury Shares as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution subject to the Listing Rules.

The Repurchase Mandate will lapse on the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting, or (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles of Association or any applicable law of the Cayman Islands to be held, or (iii) the date on which such authority is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in the general meeting.

The explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to be sent to Shareholders in connection with the proposed resolution to grant to the Directors the Repurchase Mandate is set out in Appendix I to this circular. It contains all the information reasonably necessary to enable Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution.

Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution of the Repurchase Mandate and the General Mandate, an ordinary resolution will also be proposed to grant to the Directors the Extension Mandate to authorise the Directors to issue new Shares in an amount not exceeding the aggregate number of the Shares repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

Based on 1,598,400,000 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and on the basis that no new Shares will be issued and no Shares will be repurchased by the Company for the period from the Latest Practicable Date up to and including the date of the Annual General Meeting:

(1) subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the General Mandate to the Directors, the Company will be allowed under the General Mandate to issue up to a maximum of 319,680,000 Shares, representing 20% of the number of Shares in issue excluding Treasury Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date; and

(2) subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase up to a maximum of 159,840,000 Shares, representing 10% of the number of Shares in issue excluding Treasury Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date.

The Directors wish to state that they have no immediate plans to repurchase any Shares or to allot and issue any new Shares, other than Shares which may fall to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of any options granted under the share option scheme of the Company.

PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Board consisted of five Directors, namely:

Executive Directors

Mr. Ng Kin Siu (Chairman of the Board)
Mr. Yu Hongxiang

Independent non-executive Directors

Ms. Ren Yu
Ms. Leung Ka Man
Mr. Wong Chun Wah Kelvin

Pursuant to Article 84 of the Articles of Association, at each annual general meeting one-third of the Directors for the time being shall retire from office by rotation and shall be eligible for re-election provided that every Director shall be subject to retirement at an annual general meeting at least once every three years. Pursuant to Article 83 of the Articles of Association, any Director appointed by the Board either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Board shall hold office only until the first annual general meeting of the Company after his/her appointment and be subject to re-election at such meeting. Accordingly, Mr. Ng Kin Siu, Mr. Yu Hongxiang, Ms. Leung Ka Man and Ms. Ren Yu will retire from office at the Annual General Meeting. All of them, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election. Details of the Directors proposed to be re-elected at the Annual General Meeting are set out in Appendix II to this circular.

The Nomination Committee had reviewed the composition of the Board and recommended Mr. Ng Kin Siu, Mr. Yu Hongxiang, Ms. Leung Ka Man and Ms. Ren Yu to the Board for it to recommend to Shareholders for re-election at the Annual General Meeting. The recommendations were made in accordance with the nomination policy and the objective criteria (including but not limited to gender, age, educational background, ethnicity, professional experience, skills and knowledge of the retiring Directors), with due regard for the benefits of diversity, as set out under the board diversity policy of the Company.

The Nomination Committee had also taken into account the respective contributions of the retiring Directors and their commitment to their roles. The Nomination Committee was satisfied with the independence of Ms. Leung Ka Man and Ms. Ren Yu having regard to the independence criteria as set out in Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules. Ms. Leung Ka Man and Ms. Ren Yu, who are proposed to be re-elected as independent non-executive Directors of the Company, respectively confirmed to the Company that she did not, as at the Latest Practicable Date, hold seven or more directorships in any listed companies. The biographical background of the retiring Directors is more particularly set out in Appendix II of this circular.

The Board accepted the Nomination Committee's nominations and recommended Mr. Ng Kin Siu, Mr. Yu Hongxiang, Ms. Leung Ka Man and Ms. Ren Yu to stand for re-election by Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. The Board considers that the re-election of Mr. Ng Kin Siu, Mr. Yu Hongxiang, Ms. Leung Ka Man and Ms. Ren Yu as Directors is in the best interest of the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

PROPOSED CHANGE OF AUDITOR

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 22 May 2026 in relation to, inter alia, the proposed change of auditor of the Company.

It is part of the Company's corporate governance practice to review auditor engagement arrangement from time to time, and to consider the rotation of its auditors after an appropriate period of time, so as to strengthen the independence of auditor and to induce a fresh approach to the audit.

OOP CPA & Co., ("OOP") has served as the independent auditor of the Company since 23 September 2024. In order to promote good corporate governance and maintain the independence and objectivity of the Company's independent auditor, the Board and the audit committee of the Company (the "Audit Committee") have reviewed the need to change the independent auditor. After careful consideration, the Board considers that it is an appropriate time for rotation of the Company's auditor, and proposed not to re-appoint OOP as the independent auditor of the Company at the AGM. The Company accordingly has the following arrangements:

  1. OOP, the current auditor, will retire upon expiration of its term of office at the conclusion of the AGM and will not be reappointed; and

  2. With the recommendation of the Audit Committee, on 22 May 2026, the Board has resolved to recommend the appointment of RSM Hong Kong ("RSMHK") as the new auditor of the Company following the retirement of OOP, to hold office from the conclusion of the AGM until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company and such proposed appointment is subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the AGM.

The Audit Committee has considered a number of factors in assessing the appointment of RSMHK as the new auditor of the Company, including but not limited to (i) its market reputation; (ii) its independence from the Group and objectivity; (iii) its audit proposal; (iv) its resources and capabilities; (v) its experience, industry knowledge and technical competence in providing audit work for companies listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited; (vi) the Guidelines for Effective Audit Committees – Selection, Appointment and Reappointment of Auditors issued by the Accounting and Financial Reporting Council ("AFRC") in December 2021; and (vii) the Guidance Notes on Change of Auditors published by the AFRC in September 2023.

In considering the factors contained in section 2 of the Guidelines for Effective Audit Committee – Selection, Appointment and Reappointment of Auditors issued by the AFRC, the Audit Committee has considered the following factors:

The Governance and leadership

RSMHK is registered with the AFRC as an auditor of public interest entities and has established and maintained a quality management system in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Quality Management (HKSQM) 1 ("HKSQM 1"). This system covers key areas, including governance and leadership, relevant ethical requirements, the acceptance and continuation of client relationships, and monitoring and remedial procedures.

The Audit Committee has reviewed RSMHK's leadership profile, organizational structure, and quality management policy reports regarding governance and leadership, and is satisfied that RSMHK is committed to conducting audit work in a manner that is aligned with the interests of the Company's stakeholders and the broader public interest.

Compliance with relevant ethical requirements

The Audit Committee met with the directors in charge of the engagement, and they confirmed their compliance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (Code of Ethics) published by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (HKICPA), including the independence provision. The communication covered the financial and business relationships between the Company and RSMHK nor any other relationships (whether financial, employment, family relationships or otherwise) between the proposed audit engagement team members (and their respective immediate family members) and the Company, which may impair the independence of RSMHK in performing audit for the Company.

Industry knowledge and technical competence

In terms of experience, industry knowledge, and technical competence, RSMHK is a Public Interests Entity Auditor registered with the AFRC. It provides audit services to over 40 Hong Kong-listed companies and has extensive experience in auditing Hong Kong-listed companies. RSMHK also possesses audit expertise relevant to the Group's business and has demonstrated in its audit service proposal its understanding of the Group's business development, scale, complexity and key risk areas. RSMHK may also deploy relevant professionals and technical experts, where necessary, to provide support for the audit engagement. The Audit Committee is satisfied that RSMHK has the capability to perform high-quality audits.

Engagement performance

The Audit Committee assessed RSMHK's proposed audit plan, including the allocation of professional staff, technical resources, audit methodology, and timetable, and confirmed that the audit plan is designed to comply with applicable auditing standards. For the audit of the Group, RSMHK allocated 3 audit partners with more than 10 years of experience, 1 manager, 2 audit seniors and 2 audit juniors who oversee audit quality. Dedicated engagement quality control reviewer ("EQCR") with 20 years of audit experience is appointed to each audit engagement team and are responsible for providing objective evaluation of the significant judgements and the conclusions reached. Audit partners and manager will address significant matters and judgements and junior staffs will perform fundamental audit procedures under direct supervision.

The Audit Committee is satisfied that the proposed audit timeline and procedures, including the concurrent execution of certain procedures to optimise efficiency are reasonable. The engagement team has the expertise and time necessary to complete the audit within the required timeframe without compromising audit quality.

Communication and interaction with the Audit Committee

The Audit Committee maintained effective two-way communication with RSMHK throughout the audit process, including an opening meeting to discuss the audit scope, audit approach, risk assessment, area of audit emphasis and timetable, as well as subsequent meetings to review the audit progress, significant findings, and to ensure the audit remained on schedule.

Monitoring process

Regarding monitoring and quality management, the Audit Committee notes that RSMHK has complied with the provisions of Hong Kong Standard on Quality Management (HKSQM) 1 ("HKSQM 1") issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants and has established annual monitoring and quality management procedures, including evaluations of its quality management system, annual quality risk assessments, and related compliance reviews. The Audit Committee has also reviewed publicly available information on the websites of relevant regulatory authorities and has not identified any disciplinary actions involving the audit engagement partner or key members of the audit team at RSMHK. To the best of the Audit

Committee's knowledge, it is not aware of any matters that may affect RSMHK's integrity, objectivity, independence, or audit quality.

Based on the above considerations, the Audit Committee is satisfied that RSMHK possesses the necessary independence, competence, experience and resources to undertake the audit of the Group for financial year ending 2026.

Estimated Audit Fee

The estimated audit fee in relation to annual audit agreed with RSMHK would range from around HK$650,000 to HK$700,000, which is determined by the Board and the audit committee of the Company with reference to the market rates, scope of work and audit timetable. The estimated audit fee is made on the assumption that (i) the business scope and size of operations of the Group remain substantially similar to those in the year ended 31 December 2025; (ii) no non-recurring or significant one-off transactions are expected during the financial year ending 31 December 2026; (iii) there will be no significant change in the Group's structure (e.g. no material acquisitions, disposals, or restructuring) and no major changes to the accounting or internal control systems; (iv) the nature and complexity of audit issues are expected to be similar to those encountered in the prior year; and (v) the reporting timeline and statutory deadlines for the 2026 audit will be consistent with the previous year.

Based on the above considerations, the Audit Committee has assessed and considered that RSMHK is eligible and suitable to act as the new auditor of the Company. The Board and the Audit Committee are of the view that the proposed change of independent auditor would not have any material impact on the Group and is in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Company has received a confirmation letter from OOP confirming that there are no circumstances connected with their retirement that need to be brought to the attention of the shareholders of the Company. The Board has confirmed that there is no disagreement between OOP and the Company, and that it is not aware of any other matters in respect of the retirement of auditor and proposed appointment of new auditor that need to be brought to the attention of the shareholders of the Company.

The Board would like to take this opportunity to express its sincere gratitude to OOP for its professional services and support to the Group in the previous years.

The Board proposes to amend the existing Articles of Association by adopting the Fifth Amended and Restated Articles of Association in order to bring the existing Articles of Association in line with the latest legal and regulatory requirements, including the amendments made to Appendix A1 to the Listing Rules on Core Shareholder Protection Standards, which became effective on 1 July 2025.

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required under Rule 10.06 of the Listing Rules, to provide the Shareholders with all the information reasonably necessary to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to approve the grant of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors.

1. LISTING RULES RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE OF SHARES

The Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listings are on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their securities on the Stock Exchange and any other stock exchange on which securities of the company are listed and such exchange is recognised by the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong subject to certain restrictions. Among such restrictions, the 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 shareholders, either by way of a general mandate or by specific approval of a particular transaction.

2. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were a total of 1,598,400,000 Shares in issue. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company did not have any outstanding options, warrants and convertible securities to subscribe for the Shares and did not hold any Treasury Shares.

Subject to the passing of the proposed ordinary resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no new Shares are issued and no Shares are repurchased for the period from the Latest Practicable Date up to and including the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase up to a maximum of 1,598,400,000 Shares, representing 10% of the number of issued Shares excluding Treasury Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date.

3. REASONS FOR THE REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that the Repurchase Mandate 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 Shares on the Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. Such repurchases 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 and will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

4. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In making repurchases, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purposes in accordance with the Articles of Association, the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the Listing Rules. The laws of the Cayman Islands provide that the amount of capital repaid in connection with a share repurchase may only be paid out of either the capital paid up on the relevant Shares, or the funds of the Company that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose. The premium payable on repurchases may only be paid out of either the funds of the Company that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the Company's share premium before the Shares are repurchased. In accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands, the Shares so repurchased would be treated as cancelled but the aggregate amount of authorised share capital would not be reduced.

5. MATERIAL ADVERSE IMPACT IN THE EVENT OF REPURCHASE IN FULL

Taking into account the current working capital position of the Group, the Directors consider that, if the Repurchase Mandate is to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period, it might have a material adverse impact on the working capital and/or 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 exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital or the gearing position of the Company, which in the opinion of the Directors is from time to time appropriate for the Company.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

6. SHARE PRICES

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 Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the laws of the Cayman Islands and in accordance with the regulations set out in the memorandum of association of the Company and the Articles of Association.

8. CONNECTED PERSON

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates, have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company under the Repurchase Mandate if the same is approved by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.

No connected persons of the Company have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company, or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the grant of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.

9. THE TAKEOVERS CODE AND MINIMUM PUBLIC HOLDING

If a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases upon the Company exercising its powers to repurchase securities pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (as defined in the Takeovers Code) 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.

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

On the basis of 1,598,400,000 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming there is no further issue or repurchases of Shares during the period from the Latest Practicable Date up to and including the date of the Annual General Meeting, if the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full, the shareholding in the Company of Masterveyor Holdings Limited and Mr. Ng Kin Siu would increase from approximately 27.16% to approximately 30.17% of the issued share capital of the Company. The shareholding in the Company of Gentle Soar Limited and Mr. Gao Yunhong would also increase from approximately 13.12% to approximately 14.58% of the issued share capital of the Company. Such increases would not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code but would result in the aggregate amount of the issued share capital of the Company in the public hands being reduced to less than 25%. The Directors confirm that the Repurchase Mandate will not be exercised to the extent as may result in a public shareholding falling below the prescribed minimum percentage, which is 5%.

10. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company did not repurchase any Shares in the six months prior to the Latest Practicable Date (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise).

11. TREASURY SHARES

For any Treasury Shares deposited with CCASS pending resale on the Stock Exchange, the Company will adopt appropriate measures to ensure that it would not exercise any shareholders' rights or receive any entitlements which would otherwise be suspended under the relevant laws if those Shares were registered in the Company's own name as Treasury Shares, which may include approval by the Board that (i) the Company will not (or will procure its broker not to) give any instructions to Hong Kong Securities Clearing Company Limited to vote at general meetings for the Treasury Shares deposited with CCASS; and (ii) in the case of dividends or distributions, the Company will withdraw 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 record date for the relevant dividends or distributions.

If the Company undertakes Share repurchase, the Company may (i) cancel the repurchased Shares; and/or (ii) hold such Shares in treasury, subject to market conditions and the capital management needs of the Company at the relevant time such repurchases of Shares are made. The Company currently has no intention to cancel the repurchased Shares following the settlement of any such repurchase or hold them as Treasury Shares.

  1. (1) Without prejudice to the rights of the Company under paragraph (2) of this Article, the Company may cease sending cheques for dividend entitlements or dividend warrants by post if such cheques or warrants have been left uncashed (in the case of electronic funds transfers, unsuccessful or rejected) on two consecutive occasions.
