(I) FRAMEWORK SALES AGREEMENT

AND

NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTIONS

The purpose of this circular is to provide the Shareholders with information regarding the Framework Sales Agreement, the Framework Purchase Agreement, the Product Sales Transaction, the Product Purchase Transaction, the Proposed Product Sales Annual Cap and the Proposed Product Purchase Annual Cap, and to seek approval of the Independent Shareholders in respect of the ordinary resolutions set out in the notice of the EGM on pages 48 to 50 of this circular.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In respect of the Framework Sales Agreement, the Framework Purchase Agreement, the Product Sales Transaction, the Product Purchase Transaction, the Proposed Product Sales Annual Cap and the Proposed Product Purchase Annual Cap, the recommendation of the Independent Board Committee to the Independent Shareholders is set out on pages 21 to 22 of this circular and the letter from Alliance Capital Partners Limited to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders containing its advice is set out on pages 23 to 42 of this circular.

(I) Framework Sales Agreement

References are made to the 2022 Announcement and the 2022 Circular.

The Company's products are sold to, among others, contract manufacturers and brand company customers. Contract manufacturers incorporate the Company's interconnect solutions with a vast number of other components and modules and assemble them into finished products at the specification of their customers, generally brand companies. Brand companies generally market and sell their finished products to end users. Hon Hai Group is a leading contract manufacturer which is involved in, among others, assembling the finished products for brand companies and many brand companies often require Hon Hai Group to purchase the relevant parts and components, including the Company's interconnect solutions, from specific approved suppliers like the Company, as part of the assembly process for better quality control and overall supply chain management.

As disclosed in the 2022 Announcement and the 2022 Circular, the Existing Framework Sales Agreement will expire on December 31, 2025.

On November 14, 2025, the Company and Hon Hai agreed upon the terms of the Framework Sales Agreement, pursuant to which the Group has agreed to sell various interconnect solutions and other related products to Hon Hai Group from time to time during the year of 2026 and subject to the terms and conditions thereof which are substantially the same as the Existing Framework Sales Agreement.

The principal terms of the Framework Sales Agreement are set out as follows:

Parties

(i) The Company
(ii) Hon Hai

  • 6 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Term

The Framework Sales Agreement is effective during the period of January 1, 2026 to December 31, 2026. The parties may renew the Framework Sales Agreement through friendly negotiations, subject to compliance with the relevant requirements of the Listing Rules and all other applicable laws and regulations.

Subject matter

The Group has agreed to sell various interconnect solutions and other related products to Hon Hai Group from time to time. Please also refer to the section headed "Reasons for and Benefits in relation to the Transactions" of this circular for more details.

The parties and/or their respective subsidiaries may enter into an individual sales agreement and/or other transaction documents ("Sales Documents") in respect of each actual transaction based on the terms of the Framework Sales Agreement. The Sales Documents shall contain the specific details of the terms of the transaction and must comply with the agreed terms of the Framework Sales Agreement in all material respects. In case of any conflict between the Framework Sales Agreement and the Sales Documents, the Framework Sales Agreement shall prevail.

Condition

The Framework Sales Agreement is conditional upon the approval by the Independent Shareholders at the EGM.

Pricing policy

The selling price for the products under the Framework Sales Agreement shall be determined as follows:

  • for the sales to Hon Hai Group that are designated by the Group's brand company customers, at the price negotiated and determined between the Group's brand company customers and the Group; or
  • for other sales to Hon Hai Group where selling prices were not designated by the Group's customers ("Connected Sales"), at a price that is determined by referencing the blended profit margin, which is the difference between revenue generated from such sales and historical cost allocated thereto for the preceding month, divided by the corresponding revenue, to that of sales to independent third parties ("Third Party Sales"), on a rolling basis, such that the differences in the blended profit margins between Connected Sales and Third Party Sales in each fiscal year shall not be more than 6.5% having considered the long-term business relationship, large sales volume to Hon Hai Group, and the strategic partnership with Hon Hai Group.

  • 7 -


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In respect of the 6.5% capped difference in the blended profit margin which is not subject to change during the agreement period, the Company believes it is industry practice to (1) grant large customers volume discounts; (2) give long-term customers with repeated sales and sustainable businesses price discounts as this arrangement would incur lower negotiation, coordination and logistics costs and subject the Company to lower exposure to credit risks, as compared to dealing with new customers; and (3) offer better pricing terms to customers with long-term strategic value to the Company. Having considered that (a) Hon Hai accounted for approximately 10.9%, 9.8%, and 10.1% of the Group's revenue in 2022, 2023 and 2024 respectively, and that such contributions are significant relative to the revenue contribution of other customers, (b) the Company has maintained a long-term business cooperation with Hon Hai Group since the Company's inception which the Company believes subjects it to minimal credit risk as compared to other third party customers, and (c) being part of the supply chain of Hon Hai Group brings the Company significant strategic value, the Directors are of the view that the 6.5% capped difference in the blended profit margin is under normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable, and in the interests of the Shareholders as a whole.

The "blended profit margin" is calculated by dividing blended gross profit by revenue from customers during a specific period. Blended gross profit is calculated by aggregating the revenue generated from specific customers less the historical unit cost allocated to such sales for the preceding month multiplied by number of units sold. The Company will calculate the blended gross margin for Connected Sales and for Third Party Sales, respectively, and compare the two to determine whether the difference exceeds 6.5%.

As an internal control measure for compliance with the 6.5% threshold, the management of the Company reviews and monitors whether the difference exceeds the 6.5% threshold, at least on a quarterly basis, and takes appropriate measures to ensure compliance from time to time based on the review results. If the management of the Company determines that there is a risk for exceeding the 6.5% threshold on an annual basis, it will increase the frequency of review as appropriate and take further measures to ensure compliance.

Historical Transaction Amounts

The table below sets out the historical transaction amounts of the Existing Product Sales Transaction for the three years ended December 31, 2022, 2023 and 2024 and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Historical transaction amounts
Year ended December 31, Nine months ended September 30,
(in US$ millions) 2022 2023 2024 2025
Existing Product Sales Transaction 493 413 451 373

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The actual transaction amount of the Existing Product Sales Transaction for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 does not exceed the existing annual cap of the Existing Product Sales Transaction for the year ending December 31, 2025, being US$756.0 million. In view of the internal control measures set out under the section headed "Internal Control", the Company is of the view that such annual cap will not be exceeded.

Proposed Product Sales Annual Cap

The Proposed Product Sales Annual Cap for the year ending December 31, 2026 is US$636 million, which is determined primarily with reference to projections of the Company which in turn are prepared by the Company mainly with reference to the following major factors:

  • the latest available actual amounts of the transactions under the Product Purchase Transaction and the Product Sales Transaction during the period from January 1, 2022 to September 30, 2025 (both dates inclusive);
  • the expected annual growth of the Group's products in 2026 at approximately 16% compared to the annualized transaction amount for the year ending December 31, 2025 ("Annualized FY2025") after having considered the following:

(i) the Group is pursuing the strategic expansion of its existing business, an effort anchored by key acquisitions completed in 2023 and 2024. These acquisitions have enhanced the Group's capabilities in global manufacturing, sales, and technological deployment within the auto mobility sector;

(ii) the growth of the Group's audio products is mainly driven by the adjustment of customers' global supply chain planning, which has boosted the demand for the Group's products. The Group anticipates continued ramp-up of its audio manufacturing operations in 2026 under customers' supply chain allocation plans. Based on the Group's internal capacity planning and the increase in production orders received, the Group expects its installed production capacity for audio products to increase by approximately 11.1% in 2026 compared to 2025; and

(iii) the significant growth in shipments of AI racks indicates a substantial increase in market demand for AI servers. We have conducted research from the public domain, and noted there is an expected growing market demand for the smartphones, cloud, consumer interconnectors, auto mobility and system product end markets. According to the independent market research institutions, the compound annual growth rates ("CAGR") for the next few years of the major end product markets relevant to the Group's business are estimated to be approximately 3.5% for smartphones, 16.0% for cloud, 15.8%


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

for tablets, 11.0% for auto mobility, and 24.4% for wireless chargers, which represent some of the major end product markets in the Group's cloud, consumer interconnectors, and system product segments, respectively;

  • the Group's expected growth in 2026 will be propelled by the strategic expansion of its existing businesses, anchored by key acquisitions in recent years. This includes the acquisition of Prettl SWH GmbH, (renamed One Mobility Voltaira GmbH ("Voltaira") after acquisition), a German automotive component designer and manufacturer. Please refer to the Company's announcements dated January 2, 2023 and July 3, 2023 for further details. In addition, the Group acquired the Auto-Kabel Group, a pioneer in the field of automotive power transmission, on December 2, 2024. For further details, please refer to the announcement of the Company dated July 11, 2024. The acquisitions will further strengthen the Group's product portfolio in automotive power transmission systems, including advanced high and low voltage power transmission harnesses and busbars;

  • the strategic acquisition of Voltaira is expected to continue contributing to the expansion of the Group's auto mobility business and to serve as a new growth engine by complementing the Group's global manufacturing, sales and technological deployment in terms of EV key components;

  • the strategic acquisition of Auto-Kabel Group is expected to further expand the Group's automotive business and core capabilities in electrification in terms of product scope and customer base, and to create synergies by strengthening the Group's market presence and global outreach in the auto mobility segment by leveraging Auto-Kabel Group's global network of manufacturing, sales and research and development;

  • the production strategy as a result of the Group's production costs control measures resulting in a closer collaboration between the Group and Hon Hai Group in order to benefit from Hon Hai Group's economies of scale in procurement and sales; and

  • a buffer of 10% due to uncertainties in the external environment, such as any unexpected change in customer demand or cost of supply. In determining the 10% buffer, the Board took into account the inherent (i) unpredictability of macroeconomic conditions (including potential inflation in the next 3 years), (ii) commodity price fluctuations and (iii) exchange rate movements such as the approximately 9% appreciation of New Taiwan Dollars against US$ in May 2025. The Board considers that a 10% buffer is consistent with industry practice and reflects a prudent balance between risk control and operational efficiency.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

(II) Framework Purchase Agreement

References are made to the 2022 Announcement and the 2022 Circular.

The Product Purchase Transactions can generally be classified into three models:

  • Model One: Gold salts, one of the major raw materials, is a hazardous material allowed to be sold only by licensed suppliers in the PRC. Hon Hai Group is one of the licensed suppliers and has been a supplier of the Group. In addition, due to Hon Hai Group’s economies of scale, the processing fees are generally competitive when compared with other suppliers.
  • Model Two: The Group purchases certain ancillary materials from Hon Hai Group, either as an approved supplier designated by the Group’s customers or due to its competitive prices compared to other suppliers.
  • Model Three: In order to enhance the Group’s production efficiency and manage its production cost, the Group from time to time engages Hon Hai Group, for certain labor-intensive production processing of its interconnect solutions and certain other products. Hon Hai Group has been a long-term supplier of manufacturing vendor services of the Group with the expertise to manage a large workforce.

As disclosed in the 2022 Announcement and the 2022 Circular, the Existing Framework Purchase Agreement will expire on December 31, 2025.

On November 14, 2025, the Company and Hon Hai agreed upon the terms of the Framework Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Group has agreed to purchase from Hon Hai Group gold salts as raw materials, ancillary materials and semi-finished components and assembled products from time to time during the year of 2026 and subject to the terms and conditions thereof which are substantially the same as the Existing Framework Purchase Agreement.

The principal terms of the Framework Purchase Agreement are set out as follows:

Parties

(i) The Company
(ii) Hon Hai


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Term

The Framework Purchase Agreement is effective during the period of January 1, 2026 to December 31, 2026. The parties may renew the Framework Purchase Agreement through friendly negotiations, subject to compliance with the relevant requirements of the Listing Rules and all other applicable laws and regulations.

Subject matter

The Group has agreed to purchase from Hon Hai Group gold salts as raw materials, ancillary materials and semi-finished components and assembled products from time to time. Please also refer to the section headed "Reasons for and Benefits in relation to the Transactions" of this circular for more details.

The parties and/or their respective subsidiaries may enter into an individual purchase agreement and/or other transaction documents ("Procurement Documents") in respect of each actual transaction based on the terms of the Framework Purchase Agreement. The Procurement Documents shall contain the specific details of the terms of the transaction and must comply with the agreed terms of the Framework Purchase Agreement in all material respects. In case of any conflict between the Framework Purchase Agreement and the Procurement Documents, the Framework Purchase Agreement shall prevail.

Condition

The Framework Purchase Agreement is conditional upon the approval by the Independent Shareholders at the EGM.

Pricing policy

The price of the products are determined as follows:

  • Model One: for the procurement of gold salts, at the price determined with reference to comparable third-party prices. Where such third-party prices are not readily available, at the price equivalent to the sum of the purchase prices of the Group and the processing fees. As a risk control measure, the Group will procure gold salts from at least two suppliers, but will allocate at least 70% of the annual purchase from the supplier with the lowest fee quote; or
  • Model Two: for the procurement of ancillary raw materials from Hon Hai Group that is designated by the Group's customers, at the price agreed between Hon Hai Group and the Group's customers, or determined with reference to comparable third-party prices to the extent independent third-party suppliers are available. Certain customers of the Group would designate Hon Hai Group as supplier for FIT's purchase of ancillary raw materials as a prerequisite for securing customer orders, as such materials are often proprietary, patent-protected or subject to specific

  • 12 -


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

qualification and certification requirements. This arrangement enables close alignment with the Group's customers' global production schedules and ensures product quality and timely delivery, and is consistent with market norms; or

  • Model Three: for the procurement of semi-finished components and assembled products, at the price determined with reference to comparable third-party prices to the extent independent third-party suppliers are available. Where such third-party prices are not readily available, at the price determined based on (a) Hon Hai Group's purchase prices of raw materials supplied by the Group, (b) their purchase prices of other raw materials, (c) their labor costs and overheads, (d) the relevant operating expenses estimated to be allocated to such transactions and (e) the Comparable Profit Interval provided by a professional independent third party and in accordance with reasonable business principles.

In respect of the pricing policy of the above three models where comparable third-party prices are available, the pricing terms from Hon Hai Group are no less favourable to the Company than those available from independent third-party prices.

The Comparable Profit Interval is established by using the Database and based on "return on cost and operating expenses" as the profit level indicator, and can be used to evaluate whether the pricing of the transaction is reasonable or not. In the Database, quantitative and qualitative conditions are used to identify comparable companies with similar financial data characteristics, principal business and functional risk characteristics. The Comparable Profit Interval is then established based on the financial information of comparable companies. During the period covered by the agreement, the financial information of comparable companies and the Comparable Profit Interval are updated annually based on the Database. The Company considers that the financial information provided by the Database is reliable and independent because the Database is maintained by a reputable service provider and contains detailed financials for over 190 million companies worldwide.

Hon Hai Group uses the sum of the costs in (a) to (d) above multiplied by $(1 + \text{“return on cost and operating expenses”})$ as the basis of pricing, and ensures that the "return on cost and operating expenses" used falls within the Comparable Profit Interval issued by the professional independent third party. The costs in (a) to (d) above are determined based on the accounting records of Hon Hai Group prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards. The Group will verify whether the relevant cost and operating expenses are consistent with the accounting records of Hon Hai Group.

As to the $70\%$ threshold set out in Model One above, the procurement department of the Company ensures the compliance of the $70\%$ threshold by placing orders for the first three weeks of each month with its gold salts supplier with the lowest quote. It also prepares a monthly report of actual purchase amounts for management's review as to the compliance of the $70\%$ threshold.

Existing Product Purchase Transaction 269 286 330 285

The actual transaction amount of the Existing Product Purchase Transaction for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 does not exceed the existing annual cap of the Existing Product Purchase Transaction for the year ending December 31, 2025, being US$429 million. In view of the internal control measures set out under the section "Internal Control", the Company is of the view that such annual cap will not be exceeded.

Proposed Product Purchase Annual Cap

The Proposed Product Purchase Annual Cap for the year ending December 31, 2026 is US$535 million, which was determined primarily with reference to projections of the Company which in turn are prepared by the Company mainly with reference to the following major factors:

  • the latest available actual amounts of the transactions under the Product Purchase Transaction and the Product Sales Transaction during the period from January 1, 2022 to September 30, 2025 (both dates inclusive);
  • the expected growth of the Group's products where it is estimated that the Product Purchase Transactions for 2026 will increase approximately 28% when compared to Annualized FY2025, taking the following into consideration:

(i) the Group is pursuing the strategic expansion of its existing business, an effort anchored by key acquisitions completed in 2023 and 2024. These acquisitions have enhanced the Group's capabilities in global manufacturing, sales, and technological deployment within the auto mobility sector. As a direct result of the increased sales volume and manufacturing ramp-up, associated costs will rise accordingly;

(v) the production strategy as a result of the Group’s production costs control measures, under which the Group is able to procure raw materials at more favourable prices by leveraging Hon Hai Group’s bargaining power with the suppliers; and

  • a buffer of 10% due to uncertainties in the external environment, such as any unexpected change in customer demand or cost of supply. In determining the 10% buffer, the Board took into account the inherent (i) unpredictability of macroeconomic conditions (including potential inflation in the next 3 years), (ii) commodity price fluctuations (other than gold) and (iii) exchange rate movements such as the approximately 9% appreciation of New Taiwan Dollars against US$ in May 2025. The Board considers that a 10% buffer is consistent with industry practice and reflects a prudent balance between risk control and operational efficiency.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS IN RELATION TO THE TRANSACTIONS

In respect of the Product Sales Transaction and the Product Purchase Transaction, the Company strategically focuses on automotive and other emerging applications of the Group's interconnect solutions and related products, part of the sales and procurement of which are carried out with associates of Hon Hai and connected persons of the Company to reduce production costs and increase profits. The Company therefore considers it in the best interests to generate more income and save cost by carrying out the Product Sales Transaction and the Product Purchase Transaction in response to the latest development of the Company's business plans, provided that the Group purchases from and sells to Hon Hai Group at prices pursuant to the pricing policies set forth in the Framework Sales Agreement and the Framework Purchase Agreement.

In view of the above, the Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors whose views are set out in the Letter from the Independent Board Committee) consider that (i) the Proposed Product Sales Annual Cap and the Proposed Product Purchase Annual Cap are fair and reasonable, and (ii) the Framework Sales Agreement, the Framework Purchase Agreement, and the terms of each of the Product Sales Transaction and the Product Purchase Transaction are fair and reasonable, on normal commercial terms, in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

INTERNAL CONTROL

The Group has adopted the following internal control procedures over the continuing connected transactions of the Company including the Product Sales Transaction and the Product Purchase Transaction:

  • Before entering into a transaction under the continuing connected transactions of the Company, the purchase, operation and/or other functional departments (as the case may be) of the Group will review and check whether the pricing is fair and reasonable adhering to the pricing terms and details and, in respect of the procurement of ancillary raw materials from Hon Hai Group that is designated by the Group's customers, the Group's purchase prices are the prices agreed between Hon Hai Group and the Group's customers. In addition to reviewing the pricing before entering into a transaction under the continuing connected transactions of the Company where the pricing terms under the relevant agreements are applied for the first time or the pricing terms are different from those used previously, the accounting department of the Group will review the aforesaid works carried out by the purchase, operation and/or other functional departments (as the case may be) on a quarterly basis. Where the price is to be determined with reference to the market price, the Group will obtain quotations from at least two independent third parties. The Group will then compare the quotations offered by such independent third parties and make sure that the price to be determined under the continuing connected transactions would be no less favorable to the Group.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • The accounting department of the Company is primarily responsible to review and monitor the continuing connected transactions ensuring that the annual caps of the relevant continuing connected transactions are not exceeded and the continuing connected transactions have been conducted in accordance with the pricing policies or mechanisms under the framework agreements relating to such continuing connected transactions. The continuing connected transaction management committee, members of which consist of the head of the accounting department, functional supervisor and officers, under the accounting department directly reports to the Board on continuing connected transaction-related matters. The accounting department has a budget management system which creates a rolling forecast on the monthly transaction amount of the continuing connected transactions. Based on the above, the continuing connected transaction management committee evaluates and reports to the executive Directors on actual monthly transaction amount and predicted future transaction amount of the continuing connected transactions. There is also an early warning mechanism in which executive Directors will be immediately informed and an agenda for revision of annual cap(s) will be proposed to the Board for the Directors' review and approval when the utilization rate (inclusive of both actual and predicted transaction amount) exceeds the threshold of 95%. The Company's internal audit function will also inspect the execution of the continuing connected transactions. Moreover, the accounting department will consult with the Group's internal audit function and external lawyers in respect of continuing connected transaction compliance issues and annually report to the head of the accounting department, who (in his or her own capacity and on behalf of the Group's management designated for the purposes of the Group's enterprise risk management and internal controls) will report to the audit committee of the Company and also provide a confirmation to the audit committee that the continuing connected transactions of the Company which are subject to the annual review and disclosure requirements under the Listing Rules have been entered into (a) in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group; (b) on normal commercial terms or better; and (c) in accordance with the relevant agreements governing them on terms that are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Shareholders as a whole; and that the Group's internal control procedures applicable to continuing connected transactions are adequate and effective to ensure that such transactions were so conducted. The audit committee will consider this accordingly.

  • The Company's external auditors will review the continuing connected transactions (which are subject to the annual review and disclosure requirements under the Listing Rules) annually to check and confirm (among others) whether the pricing terms have been adhered to and whether the relevant caps have been exceeded.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, gross profit increased by 1.7% from US$421 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 to US$429 million.

The gross profit margin decreased from 20.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 to 18.6% for the same period in 2025, primarily due to the change of product mix and the impact of exchange rates. Operating profit increased by 12.8% from US$93 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 to US$105 million for the same period in 2025 primarily due to the diversified product portfolios.

(2) for other sales to the Hon Hai Group where selling prices were not designated by the Group's customers (the "Connected Sales"), at a price that is determined by referencing the blended profit margin, which is the difference between revenue generated from such sales and historical cost allocated thereto for the preceding month, divided by the corresponding revenue, to that of sales to independent third parties (the "Third Party Sales"), on a rolling basis, such that the differences in the blended profit margins between the Connected Sales and the Third Party Sales in each fiscal year shall not be more than 6.5%, having considered the long-term business relationship, large sales volume to the Hon Hai Group, and the strategic partnership with the Hon Hai Group.

LETTER FROM ALLIANCE CAPITAL PARTNERS LIMITED

In respect of the Designated Product Sales, we understand from Management that it is indeed an industry practice that the brand companies (i.e. the ultimate customers) often require contract manufacturers (i.e. the Group's direct customers) to purchase the relevant parts and components, including the Group's interconnect solutions, from specific approved suppliers like the Group, for purpose of better quality control and overall supply chain management. In this regard, we have obtained and reviewed one sample every month totaling 12 sales samples from the Company covering the period from July 2024 to June 2025. We consider the selected samples are sufficient for us to understand the pricing mechanism. Therefore, we consider that the selected samples are fair and representative for assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the pricing mechanism.

Based on the documents and information received, we noted that the brand companies did require the Hon Hai Group to source certain parts and components from the Group, and that the selling prices of the Designated Product Sales were negotiated and determined between the Group's brand company customers and the Group. Based on the information received, we are of the view that Group has complied with the pricing mechanism for the Designated Product Sales.

In respect of the Connected Sales where the prices are determined with reference to the blended profit margins, the Management of the Company advised that the Group would regularly calculate the gross margin for the Connected Sales and for the Third Party Sales, respectively, and monitor that the difference would not exceed 6.5%, which is because the Company believes it is an industry practice to (1) grant large customers volume discounts; (2) give long-term customers with repeated sales and sustainable businesses price discounts as this would incur lower negotiation, coordination and logistics costs and subject the Company to lower exposure to credit risks, as compared to dealing with new customers; and (3) offer better pricing terms to customers with long-term strategic value to the Company. The Management advised that (a) Hon Hai accounted for approximately 10.9%, 9.8%, and 10.1% of the Group's revenue in 2022, 2023 and 2024 respectively and that such contributions are significant relative to the revenue contribution of other customers, (b) the Company has maintained a long-term business cooperation with Hon Hai Group since the Company's inception which the Company believes subject it to minimal credit risk as compared to the other third party customers, and (c) being part of the ecosystem of Hon Hai group brings the Company significant strategic value. The Directors are of the view that the 6.5% capped difference in the blended profit margin is under normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable, and in the interests of the Shareholders as a whole. Furthermore, we have obtained and reviewed a transfer pricing report provided by the Company, which was prepared by a professional independent third party in September 2025. According to the said report, excluding the loss-making companies, the three-year weighted average profit margins of 18 independent comparable companies in the region of Far East and Central Asia (including 34 countries/regions, excluding Australia and New Zealand) range from approximately 0.31% to approximately 16.20%. The difference of the high and low end margin is 15.89%. Therefore, we are of the view that the 6.5% capped difference in the blended profit margin is fair and reasonable.

LETTER FROM ALLIANCE CAPITAL PARTNERS LIMITED

We have obtained and reviewed the gross profit margin analysis table of the Connected Sales and the Third Party Sales prepared by the Group, covering the period from July 2024 to June 2025, and noted that the differences did not exceed 6.5%, which were reviewed and endorsed by the Head of Accountant of the Group quarterly. Based on the information received, we are of the view that Group has complied with the pricing mechanism for the Connected Sales.

(b) Framework Purchase Agreement

Pursuant to the Framework Purchase Agreement, the Group has agreed to purchase various raw materials, ancillary materials and semi-finished components and assembled products from the Hon Hai Group during the period of January 1, 2026 to December 31, 2026 under three procurement models as follows:

Model Pricing Policy
Model One
Purchase of gold salts from the Hon Hai Group as the Group’s raw materials Purchase price is to be set at the price determined with reference to comparable third-party prices. Where such third-party prices are not readily available, purchase price is to be set at the price equivalent to the sum of the purchase prices of the Group and the processing fees.

As a risk control measure, the Group will procure gold salts from more than two suppliers, but will allocate at least 70% of the annual purchase from the supplier with the lowest fee quote.

As set out in the Letter from the Board, the Group procures gold salts from the Hon Hai Group in order to take advantage of the Hon Hai Group’s economies of scale. In particular, gold salts, one of the major raw materials, is a hazardous material and generally allowed to be sold only by licensed suppliers.

We have enquired with Management and noted that a subsidiary of the Hon Hai Group is a licensed supplier with the relevant business license and safety production permit issued by Shenzhen Administration of Work Safety in the PRC and Taiwan respectively. |

Pricing Policy

To assess the implementation of the pricing mechanism of Model One, we have obtained and reviewed one sample every month totaling 12 samples of the fee quotations, provided by the Hon Hai Group and independent third-party suppliers respectively, covering the period from July 2024 to June 2025, which were determined by the sum of the commodity spot prices and the processing fees provided by the Hon Hai Group and independent third-party suppliers. We have also obtained and reviewed one sample every month totaling 12 samples of purchase orders, covering the period from July 2024 to June 2025 respectively. We consider the selected samples are sufficient for us to understand the pricing mechanism. Therefore, we consider that the selected samples are fair and representative for assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the pricing mechanism.

We noted that the Group has selected gold salts suppliers on the lowest quote basis.

Management also confirmed that they have complied with the 70% threshold in 2023 and 2024, and the nine months ended September 30, 2025. We have reviewed the amount of purchase from the suppliers with the lowest quotes for the year ended December 31, 2023, December 31, 2024 and the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and noted that the 70% threshold has been complied.

Based on the information reviewed as described above, we are of the view that the Group has complied with the pricing mechanism of Model One.

Model Two

Purchase of ancillary raw materials from the Hon Hai Group

Brand companies may require the Group to purchase certain ancillary materials from a designated supplier, for example, the Hon Hai Group (the "Designated Supplier Transactions"). In this case, purchase prices are the prices agreed between the Hon Hai Group and the Group's customers; in other cases where the Hon Hai Group is not designated as supplier (the "Non-designated Supplier Transactions"), purchase prices are determined with reference to comparable independent third party prices to the extent that independent third party suppliers are available.


LETTER FROM ALLIANCE CAPITAL PARTNERS LIMITED

Model

Pricing Policy

Based on our discussion with Management and our review of the relevant correspondences between the Group and a brand company, we understand that the brand company requires the Group to purchase certain ancillary materials from their designated supplier, such as the Hon Hai Group, and it is likely for the Group to purchase ancillary raw materials from the Hon Hai Group as Non-designated Supplier Transactions, due to the competitive prices that the Hon Hai Group could offer resulting probably from economies of scale.

To assess the implementation of the pricing mechanism of Model Two, we have obtained and reviewed one sample every month totaling 12 samples of Designated Supplier Transactions and Non-designated Supplier Transactions respectively, covering the period from July 2024 to June 2025. We consider the selected samples are sufficient for us to understand the pricing mechanism. Therefore, we consider that the selected samples are fair and representative for assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the pricing mechanism.

For the Designated Supplier Transactions, we noted that the prices were negotiated between the Hon Hai Group and the Group's customers. For the Non-designated Supplier Transactions, we noted from the purchase order samples and other corresponding documents that the Group has compared the price quotations from the Hon Hai Group with those from independent third-party suppliers. Based on the information reviewed as described above, we are of the view that the Group has complied with the pricing mechanism of Model Two.

Model Three

Purchase of semi-finished components and assembled products from the Hon Hai Group to whom the Group provides certain raw materials and components for their production of semi-finished components and assembled products

Purchase prices are determined with reference to comparable third-party prices to the extent independent-third-party suppliers are available. Where such third-party prices are not readily available, purchase prices are determined based on (a) the Hon Hai Group's purchase prices of raw materials supplied by the Group, (b) the Hon Hai Group's purchase prices of other raw materials, (c) the Hon Hai Group's labor costs and overheads, (d) the relevant operating expenses estimated to be allocated to such transactions, and (e) the Comparable Profit Interval provided by a professional independent third party and in accordance with reasonable business principles.

LETTER FROM ALLIANCE CAPITAL PARTNERS LIMITED

Model

Pricing Policy

As mentioned in the purchase agreement, the Comparable Profit Interval is established by using a well-known Database, which contains detailed financials for over 190 million companies worldwide, and is mainly used in transfer pricing, corporate finance and credit risk etc. and based on "return on cost and operating expenses" as the profit level indicator, and can be used to evaluate whether the pricing of the transaction i.e. the mark-up percentage on the cost and operating expenses ("Mark-up Percentage") is reasonable or not. In the Database, quantitative and qualitative conditions are used to identify comparable companies with similar financial data characteristics, principal business and functional risk characteristics. The Comparable Profit Interval is then established based on the financial information of comparable companies. During the period covered by the agreement, the financial information of comparable companies and the Comparable Profit Interval will be updated annually based on the Database.

In order to enhance the Group's production efficiency and manage its production cost, the Group from time to time engages the Hon Hai Group for certain labour-intensive production processing of its interconnect solutions and certain other products.

The Hon Hai Group has been a long-term supplier of manufacturing services of the Group with the expertise to manage a large workforce. Furthermore, as advised by Management, given the unique nature of the semi-finished goods and assembled products, there were no third party transactions for comparable products. As such, conducting the Product Purchase Transaction with the Hon Hai Group is essential and mutually complementary.

To assess the implementation of the pricing mechanism of Model Three, we have obtained and reviewed one sample every month totaling 12 purchase transaction samples and the underlying documents from the Group covering the period from July 2024 to June 2025, which sets out the breakdown of raw material costs, labor costs and overheads, the relevant operating expenses allocated, and the then Mark-up Percentage. We consider the selected samples are sufficient for us to understand the pricing mechanism. Therefore, we consider that the selected samples are fair and representative for assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the pricing mechanism.

LETTER FROM ALLIANCE CAPITAL PARTNERS LIMITED

Model

Pricing Policy

We noted that the relevant mark-up percentage on the relevant costs and operating expenses did not exceed the then Comparable Profit Interval. Based on the information reviewed as described above, we are of the view that the Group has complied with the pricing mechanism of Model Three.

We are also advised by Management that the professional independent third party that provides the Comparable Profit Interval is a group member of a reputable international accounting firm with expertise in international taxation and transfer pricing issues, which will analyse the fairness and reasonableness of the profit margin in the industry. We also noted that Management considers that the financial information provided by the Database is reliable and independent because the Database is maintained by a reputable service provider and contains detailed financials for over 190 million companies worldwide.

In addition, the Comparable Profit Interval is principally based on annual results. Based on our discussion with Management, we understand that the Group encounters a seasonality effect in its business operation. Sales amount is usually higher in the second half of the year. Therefore, we are of the view that using the profit margins based on full year results of the comparable companies can eliminate the issue of seasonality effect, hence the Comparable Profit Interval can provide the most accurate and comparable information for the Group to evaluate the reasonableness of the Mark-up Percentage, and such practice is in the interest of the Company.

Given the credential and qualifications of the reputable international accounting firm, the experience of such professional independent third party, the database that they adopt, and the Comparable Profit Interval which is principally based on annual results of the relevant comparable companies, we are of the view that it is fair and reasonable to determine the cost-plus mark-up percentage with reference to the Comparable Profit Interval provided by a professional independent third party on an annual basis.

4. Reasons for and benefits in relation to the continuing connected transactions

In respect of the Product Sales Transaction and the Product Purchase Transaction, the Group strategically focuses on automotive and other emerging applications of the Group's interconnect solutions and related products, and on parts of the procurement and sales which are carried out with associates of Hon Hai and connected persons of the Company, to reduce production costs and increase profits. The Group therefore considers it to be in its best interests to generate more income and save cost by carrying out the Product Purchase Transaction and the Product Sales Transaction in response to the latest development of the Group's business plans, provided that the Group purchases from and sells to the Hon Hai Group at prices pursuant to the pricing policies set forth in the Framework Sales Agreement and the Framework Purchase Agreement.

Product Purchase Transaction 375 401 429 286 330 380 76% 82% 89%

5.1 The Proposed Product Sales Annual Cap

We understand from Management that the Proposed Product Sales Annual Cap is determined based on the following:

  • Historical transaction amount

We noted that the average product sales transaction amount under the existing framework product sales agreement was approximately US$452 million for the three years ended December 31, 2024;

  • The expected growth of the Group’s product sales

Based on our discussion with Management, we note that the Product sales are expected to grow at approximately 16% in 2026 when comparing to the transaction amount for Annualized FY2025 after having considered the following:

(i) The Group is pursuing the strategic expansion of its existing business, an effort anchored by key acquisitions completed in 2023 and 2024. These acquisitions have enhanced the Group’s capabilities in global manufacturing, sales, and technological deployment within the auto mobility sector;

(ii) The growth of the Group’s audio products is mainly driven by the adjustment of customers’ global supply chain planning, which has boosted the demand for the Group’s products. The Group anticipates continued ramp-up of its audio manufacturing operations in 2026 under customers’ supply chain allocation plans. Based on the Group’s internal capacity planning and the increase in production orders received, the Group expects its installed production capacity for audio products to increase by approximately 11.1% in 2026 compared to 2025; and


LETTER FROM ALLIANCE CAPITAL PARTNERS LIMITED

(iii) The significant growth in shipments of AI racks indicates a substantial increase in market demand for AI servers. We have conducted research in the public domain, and noted there is an expected growing market demand for smartphones, cloud, consumer interconnectors, auto mobility and system product end markets. According to the independent market research institutions mentioned above, the compound annual growth rates ("CAGR") for the next few years of smartphones, cloud (which is one of the major end product markets in the Group's cloud segment), tablets (which is one of the major end product markets of the Group's consumer interconnectors segment), auto mobility segment, wireless chargers (which are some of the major end product markets in the Group's system product segment) are 3.5%, 16.0%, 15.8%, 11.0%, and 24.4%, respectively;

  • The Group's expected growth in 2026 will be propelled by the strategic expansion of its existing businesses, anchored by key acquisitions in recent years. This includes the acquisition of Voltaira which was announced on January 2, 2023 and closed on July 3, 2023. Voltaira is principally engaged in the business of the design and assembly of cable and wiring solutions for the automotive and broader mobility industry. In addition, the Group acquired Auto-Kabel group on December 2, 2024. Auto-Kabel is headquartered in Hausen im Wiesental, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany. They are a pioneer in the field of automotive power transmission. For further details, please refer to the announcement of the Company dated July 11, 2024. The acquisition will strengthen the Group's product portfolio in automotive power transmission systems, including advanced high and low voltage power transmission harnesses and busbars;

  • The strategic acquisition of Voltaira is expected to continue to contributing to the expansion of the Group's auto mobility business and serve as a new growth engine by complementing the Group's global manufacturing, sales and technological deployment in terms of EV key components;

  • The strategic acquisition of Auto Kabel Group is expected to expand the Group's automotive business and core capabilities in electrification in terms of product scope and customer base, and creates synergies by strengthening the Group's market presence and global outreach in the auto mobility segment by leveraging Auto-Kabel group's global network of manufacturing, sales and research and development;

  • The production strategy as a result of the Group's production costs control measures, resulting in a closer collaboration between the Group and Hon Hai Group in order to benefit from Hon Hai Group's economies of scale in procurement and sales; and

  • A buffer of 10% due to uncertainties in the external environment such as any unexpected change in customer demand or cost of supply.

  • 38 -


LETTER FROM ALLIANCE CAPITAL PARTNERS LIMITED

We also noted the utilisation of annual caps for 2023, 2024 and Annualized FY2025 were approximately 63%, 64% and 66% respectively during the period.

Having considered that the Proposed Product Sales Annual Cap is determined based on the expected transaction amount and budget of Product Sales Transaction for year ending December 31, 2026 and the historical transaction amounts, taking into account (a) an expected growing market demand for the smartphone, cloud, consumer interconnectors, auto mobility and system product markets based on independent market research institutions' forecast CAGRs ranging from 2.3% to 24.4% as mentioned above, with which Management believes that it is appropriate and prudent to estimate an annual growth rate of 16% in 2026 when compared to Annualized FY2025; and (b) the significant acquisitions completed in 2023 and 2024 have bolstered the Group's production capacity, strengthening its position in the competitive auto mobility sector; and (c) a general buffer of around 10% in case of any uncertainties in the external environment. According to our research conducted mentioned above, we are of the view that the Proposed Product Sales Annual Cap is reasonable.

5.2 Proposed Product Purchase Annual Caps

We understand from Management that the Proposed Product Purchase Annual Cap is determined based on the following:

  • Historical transaction amount

We noted that the average product purchase transaction amount under the existing framework product purchase agreement was approximately US$295.0 million for the three years ended December 31, 2024;

  • The projected growth of the Group's products and growth in product purchase transaction:

Based on our discussion with Management with reference to the existing production schedule based on current and future market demand, we noted there is an expected growing market demand for the smartphones, cloud, consumer Interconnectors, auto mobility and system product end market. Independent market research institutions generated forecast CAGRs ranging from 2.3% to 24.4% as mentioned above. In view of the expected increase in the Group's production and product sales as discussed above which will also affect the purchase of materials for production, it is estimated that the amount of product purchase transactions for 2026 will increase approximately 28% when compared to Annualized FY2025 taking the following into consideration:

(i) The Group is pursuing the strategic expansion of its existing business, an effort anchored by key acquisitions completed in 2023 and 2024. These acquisitions have enhanced the Group's capabilities in global manufacturing, sales, and technological deployment within the auto mobility sector. As a direct result of the increased sales volume and manufacturing ramp-up, associated costs will rise accordingly;


LETTER FROM ALLIANCE CAPITAL PARTNERS LIMITED

(ii) The growth of the Group’s audio product sales is mainly driven by the adjustment of customers’ global supply chain planning, which has boosted the demand for the Group’s products. The Group anticipates continued ramp-up of its audio manufacturing operations in 2026 under customers’ supply chain allocation plans. Based on the Group’s internal capacity planning and the increase in production orders received, the Group expects its installed production capacity for audio products to increase by approximately 11.1% in 2026 compared to 2025;

(iii) The significant growth in shipments of AI racks indicates a substantial increase in market demand for AI servers. We have conducted research from the public domain, and noted there is an expected growing market demand for the smartphones, cloud, consumer interconnectors, auto mobility and system product end markets. According to the independent market research institutions, the CAGR for the next few years of the major end product markets relevant to the Group’s business are estimated to be approximately 3.5% for smartphones, 16.0% for cloud, 15.8% for tablets, 11.0% for auto mobility, and 24.4% for wireless chargers, which represent some of the major end product markets in the Group’s cloud, consumer interconnectors, and system product segments, respectively;

(iv) Precious metal prices experienced significant volatility from 2022 to 2025 with gold prices rising dramatically especially from mid-2024 into 2025 reaching record highs. The prices of gold experienced a substantial increase of over 100% since 2024 leading up to October 2025; and

(v) The production strategy adopted as a result of the Group’s production costs control measures, under which the Group is able to procure raw materials at more favourable prices by leveraging Hon Hai Group’s bargaining power with suppliers;

  • There is a buffer of 10% due to uncertainties in the external environment, such as any unexpected change in customer demand or cost of supply.

We also noted that the utilisation of the annualised annual cap for Annualized FY2025 at approximately 89% was in line with the previous two years.

We understand from the Management that the products of the Group will shift towards higher-end and more complex products. The introduction of new products with enhanced manufacturing processes (such as products with “additional flexible printed circuit processes” and “increased gold plating thickness”) requires the Group to procure and reserve more raw materials and key components in advance. As the new processes are expected to complete validation in 2025, substantial procurement activities are anticipated to occur in 2026. Furthermore, certain raw materials purchased from Hon Hai Group, such as gold salts, are affected by the price of gold, which has shown significant price volatility in recent years (the

  • 40 -

LETTER FROM ALLIANCE CAPITAL PARTNERS LIMITED

prices of gold experienced a substantial increase of over 100% since 2024 leading up to October 2025). Therefore, the estimated growth rate of product purchases in 2026 is higher than that of product sales, and the forecast CAGRs of the relevant end markets. Having considered the above, we are of the view that the growth rate of 28% of the estimated amount of product purchase transactions is fair and reasonable, and therefore, the Proposed Product Purchase Annual Cap is reasonable.

6. Internal control procedures and pricing policies

As disclosed in the Letter from the Board, the Group has adopted internal control procedures on the continuing connected transactions of the Company including the Product Sales Transaction and the Product Purchase Transaction, pursuant to which Management will monitor and review the continuing connected transactions on a monthly basis (including, among others, the transaction amounts of the continuing connected transactions during the month). We have obtained and reviewed the set of the internal control procedures on connected transactions and are of the view that the internal control procedures adopted by the Group are in place to ensure that the continuing connected transactions are conducted on normal commercial terms and not prejudicial to the interests of the Company and the minority Shareholders.

The Company has engaged the Company's auditor to review and report to the Board on the continuing connected transactions every year in accordance with Rule 14A.56 of the Listing Rules. The independent non-executive Directors will also review the Transactions under the Framework Agreements on an annual basis. Accordingly, the Directors determined that the internal control system of the Group is effective to ensure that the transactions contemplated under the Framework Agreements will be conducted on normal commercial terms and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

We have reviewed the 2023 Annual Report and 2024 Annual Report of the Company and noted that both the independent non-executive Directors and auditors of the Company have confirmed that the continuing connected transactions under the Existing Framework Agreements were conducted in accordance with the requirements and following the internal control procedures during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024.

Based on the above procedures, we are of the view that there are sufficient internal control procedures in place to ensure that the continuing connected transactions are conducted on normal commercial terms and not prejudicial to the interests of the Company and the minority Shareholders.


LETTER FROM ALLIANCE CAPITAL PARTNERS LIMITED

RECOMMENDATIONS

Having considered the principal factors and reasons above, we are of the view that (i) the Transactions will be conducted in the ordinary and usual course of business; (ii) the terms of the Framework Agreements are on normal commercial terms; (iii) the Proposed Annual Caps are fair and reasonable; and (iv) the Framework Agreements are in the interest of the Group and the Shareholders as a whole so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned.

Accordingly, we recommend that the Independent Board Committee advise the Independent Shareholders to vote in favour of the ordinary resolutions to approve the Framework Agreements and the Proposed Annual Caps at the EGM.
