PROPOSALS FOR RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS, GENERAL MANDATES TO BUY-BACK SHARES AND ISSUE SHARES AND RESELL TREASURY SHARES AND NOTICE OF 2026 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding resolutions to be proposed at the 2026 Annual General Meeting relating to (i) the re-election of retiring Directors; and (ii) the granting to the Directors of general mandates to buy-back Shares not exceeding 10% of the number of issued Shares (excluding Treasury Shares) and to resell or award Treasury Shares and issue and allot new Shares not exceeding 20% of the number of Shares in issue (excluding Treasury Shares) as at the date of passing of such resolutions.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS
Pursuant to Article 106(A), Mr. Francis Lui Yiu Tung, Mr. Joseph Chee Ying Keung and Professor Patrick Wong Lung Tak (“Professor Wong”) will retire by rotation at the 2026 Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, all have offered themselves for re-election. Ms. Eileen Lui Wai Ling was appointed as an executive Director of the Company on 9 May 2025. Pursuant to Article 97 of Articles of Association, she will hold office until the 2026 Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, has offered herself for re-election. All of them will be proposed for re-election individually.
Recommendations to the Board for the proposal to re-elect the aforesaid Directors were made by the Nomination Committee of the Company, after evaluating their performance and considering a range of diversity perspectives including but not limited to skills, regional and industrial experience, background, race, gender and other qualities relevant to duties of Directors. Retiring Director abstains from voting on the recommendation of his/her own re-election at the Nomination Committee.
In particular, the following factors were amongst those considered and discussed by the Nomination Committee at a meeting to consider whether it should recommend the re-election of Professor Wong as an independent non-executive Director:
(a) Professor Wong meets the independence criteria set out in rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules;
(b) He is not involved in the day-to-day management or business of the Company nor does he perform any executive role or management function within the Group that could impair his independent judgment;
(c) He has actively participated in all Board meetings, Committee meetings and the general meeting. Professor Wong devotes sufficient time to discharge his duties as an independent non-executive Director;
(d) He provides impartial advice and exercises independent judgment on matters discussed at the meetings, offering valuable advice to the executive Directors;
(e) His broad experience, business and entrepreneurial perspectives, professional qualifications, external commitments and in-depth understanding of the Group’s business enhance Board diversity and contribute to the overall effectiveness of the Board; and
(f) Although he has served on the Board for more than nine years, there is no evidence that his independence has been compromised by his tenure, nor is length of service alone a determining factor in assessing independence.
The Nomination Committee proposed the recommendation on re-election of Professor Wong as an independent non-executive Director to the Board for discussion and consideration. The Board concurred with the Nomination Committee’s recommendations and agreed that Professor Wong remains independent notwithstanding his tenure with the Company.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
As Professor Wong has served the Board for more than nine years, his re-election will be subject to separate resolution to be approved by the Shareholders. Subject to the approval of his re-election by the Shareholders at the 2026 Annual General Meeting, Professor Wong will continue to act as an independent non-executive Director of the Company.
Details of the retiring Directors proposed to be re-elected are set out in Appendix I to this circular.
GENERAL MANDATES TO BUY-BACK SHARES AND ISSUE SHARES AND RESELL TREASURY SHARES
At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 8 May 2025, ordinary resolutions were passed granting general mandates for the Directors to buy-back Shares not exceeding 10% of the number of issued Shares (excluding Treasury Shares) as at that date (“Existing Buy-back Mandate”) and to resell or award Treasury Shares and issue and allot new Shares not exceeding 20% of the number of Shares in issue (excluding Treasury Shares) as at that date (“Existing Share Issue and Treasury Share Sale Mandate”).
Both the Existing Buy-back Mandate and the Existing Share Issue and Treasury Share Sale Mandate will expire upon the conclusion of the 2026 Annual General Meeting. The Directors consider that the Existing Buy-back Mandate and the Existing Share Issue and Treasury Share Sale Mandate increase the financing flexibility and provide discretion to the Board in managing the Company’s affairs and capital base timely and are in the interests of the Company and Shareholders, and that both mandates should continue to be adopted by the Company.
At the 2026 Annual General Meeting, a new general mandate for the Directors to buy-back Shares not exceeding 10% of the number of Shares in issue (excluding Treasury Shares), and a new general mandate for the Directors to resell or award Treasury Shares and allot, issue and deal with new Shares, to grant rights to subscribe for, or convert any security into, additional Shares (including the issue of any securities convertible into Shares, or options, warrants or similar rights to subscribe for or otherwise acquire any Shares) and to make or grant offers, agreements and options which would or might require the exercise of such powers not exceeding (save as otherwise provided in the resolution) 20% of the number of Shares in issue (excluding Treasury Shares) as at the date of passing of such resolutions as respectively set out in Resolution 9.1 (“New Buy-back Mandate”) and in Resolutions 9.2 and 9.3 (“New Share Issue and Treasury Share Sale Mandate”) in the notice of the 2026 Annual General Meeting will be proposed. Resolution 9.3 also proposes to add to the 20% limit under the New Share Issue and Treasury Share Sale Mandate such Shares as bought back pursuant to the New Buy-back Mandate, on the basis that Resolutions 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3 are all passed and the mandates sought therein are all granted by the Shareholders at the 2026 Annual General Meeting.
An explanatory statement containing the particulars required by the Listing Rules to enable Shareholders to make an informed view on whether to vote for or against Resolution 9.1 to be proposed at the 2026 Annual General Meeting in relation to the New Buy-back Mandate is set out in Appendix II to this circular.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
With respect to the proposed New Share Issue and Treasury Share Sale Mandate, on the basis of the Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date (assuming no further changes to the Shares in issue from that date until the date of the 2026 Annual General Meeting), the maximum number of Shares that can be allotted and issued by the Company is 875,848,142.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Directors had no intention to exercise the power to issue, sell, award or otherwise dispose of Shares pursuant to the New Share Issue and Treasury Share Sale Mandate or to buy-back shares pursuant to the New Buy-back Mandate.
NOTICE OF 2026 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Notice of the 2026 Annual General Meeting is set out in Appendix III to this circular. Whether or not you are able to attend the meeting, you are requested to complete the proxy form accompanying this circular in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return it to the registered office of the Company at 22nd Floor, Wing On Centre, 111 Connaught Road Central, Hong Kong (marked for attention of the Company Secretary) as soon as possible and, in any event, so as to be received by the Company not later than 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, 9 May 2026 or not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding any adjourned meeting (as the case may be).

RECOMMENDATION
The Directors consider that the re-election of retiring Directors, the grant of the New Buy-back Mandate and the New Share Issue and Treasury Share Sale Mandate are each in the best interests of the Company and Shareholders, and accordingly, recommend all Shareholders to vote in favour of all the resolutions to be proposed at the 2026 Annual General Meeting.

APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON BUY-BACK OF SHARES
This Appendix contains particulars that are required by the Listing Rules to be included in an explanatory statement to enable the Shareholders to make an informed view on whether to vote for or against the resolution to be proposed at the 2026 Annual General Meeting in relation to the New Buy-back Mandate.
ISSUED SHARES
As at the Latest Practicable Date, 4,379,240,712 Shares were in issue. As at the same date, there were outstanding share options granted under the Previous Share Option Schemes and Share Option Scheme 2023 to subscribe for 5,891,759 Shares and 15,065,240 Awarded Shares underlying the awards granted under the Share Award Scheme. The Awarded Shares granted under the Share Award Scheme may be satisfied by issue of new Shares. The Board will pass resolutions amending the scheme to allow for awards granted under it to be satisfied in whole or in part with Treasury Shares before any Treasury Shares are applied for that purpose.
Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the proposed mandate to buy-back Shares and on the basis that no further Shares are issued (whether generally or pursuant to the exercise of the outstanding share options or awards) or bought back before the 2026 Annual General Meeting, the Company would be allowed to buy-back a maximum of 437,924,071 Shares during the period from the 2026 Annual General Meeting and ending on the earliest of: (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; or (ii) the date by which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required to be held by the Articles of Association or by any applicable law of Hong Kong; or (iii) the date upon which such authority is revoked or varied by a resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.
REASONS FOR BUY-BACKS
The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and Shareholders to seek a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to buy-back Shares on the Stock Exchange. Such buy-backs may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value of the Company and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a buy-back will benefit the Company and Shareholders.
The Directors have no present intention to buy-back any Shares and they would only exercise the power to buy-back in circumstances where they consider that the buy-back would be in the best interests of the Company and in circumstances where they consider that the Shares can be bought back on terms favourable to the Company. On the basis of the consolidated financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2025, being the date to which the latest published audited financial statements of the Company were made up, the Directors consider that if the general mandate to buy-back Shares were to be exercised in full at the currently prevailing market value, there might be a material adverse impact on the working capital position and gearing position of the Company. The Directors do not propose to exercise the mandate to buy-back Shares to such an extent as would, in the circumstances at the time, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company as compared with the position disclosed in the latest published audited financial statements or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.
APPENDIX II EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON BUY-BACK OF SHARES
It is intended that the Company may cancel any buy-back Shares following the settlement of any such buy-back or hold them as Treasury Shares subject to prevailing market conditions and its capital management needs at the relevant time of the buy-backs. The Company does not hold any Treasury Shares at the date of this circular.
FUNDING OF BUY-BACKS
Buy-backs made pursuant to the proposed mandate to buy-back Shares would be funded out of funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association, the Companies Ordinance and other applicable laws of Hong Kong.
EFFECT OF THE TAKEOVERS CODE
If as a result of a buy-back of Shares, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code and Rule 6 of the Buy-back Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert, depending on the level of increase of the Shareholders’ interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and would become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Trust, Lui Family Members and their respective close associates and companies controlled by them controlled a total of 2,425,210,345 issued Shares, representing approximately 55.38% of the issued Shares.
Based on the above shareholding interests, in the event that the power to buy-back Shares pursuant to the New Buy-back Mandate is exercised in full, and taking no account of the exercise of outstanding share options or awards, the number of Shares controlled by the Trust, Lui Family Members and their respective close associates and companies controlled by them would be increased to approximately 61.53% of the issued Shares. The Directors are not aware of any consequence which would give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.
