The 2025 Annual Report may then be viewed and downloaded from the Company's website (www.hg-semiconductor.com) and the Stock Exchange's website (www.hkexnews.hk). The audited consolidated financial statements have been reviewed by the audit committee of the Company (the "Audit Committee").

RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Board consisted of six Directors: three Executive Directors namely Dr. Xu Zhihong (Chairman), Mr. Zhao Yi Wen and Mr. Li Yang; and three Independent Non-executive Directors namely Mr. Zou Haiyan, Mr. Siu Miu Man, Simon, M.H. and Ms. Liu Wanwen.

Pursuant to article 108(a) of the Articles, at each annual general meeting, one-third of the Directors for the time being (or if their number is not a multiple of three (3), the number nearest to but not less than one-third) shall retire from office by rotation. Accordingly, Mr. Zou Haiyan ("Mr. Zou") and Mr. Siu Miu Man, Simon, MH ("Mr. Siu") shall retire at the 2026 AGM and, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The re-election of Directors has been reviewed by the nomination committee of the Company (the “Nomination Committee”) which recommends the Board that the re-election be proposed for Shareholders’ approval at the 2026 AGM. The nominations were made in accordance with the nomination policy of the Company and the objective criteria for the nominations which include but not limited to, gender, age, cultural and educational background, professional experience, skills, knowledge and length of service, with due regard for the benefits of diversity as set out under the board diversity policy of the Company.

In recommending Mr. Zou and Mr. Siu to stand for re-election as independent non-executive Directors, the Nomination Committee has considered the following backgrounds and attributes of the nominees concerned:

(a) Mr. Zou has substantial experience in taxation, auditing, financial reporting and corporate governance. He has obtained the qualifications of Chinese Institute of Certified Public Accountant (CICPA), a Fellow of the Institute of Public Accountants of Australia (FIPA), a Fellow of the Institute of Financial Accountants of British (FFA), an Associate member of International Accountants (AAIA), a member of the Institute of Cost Accountants of India (ACMA), and a Certified Financial Planner (FChFP).

(b) Mr. Siu, has served in many public listed companies as senior management and has over 27 years of managerial experience in general management, commerce, banking, finance, real estate development and construction business. He is a corporate member of the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers, Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors (General Practice Stream), Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (General Practice Stream) and Chartered Institute of Arbitrator. Mr. Siu is an Authorized Person under the Hong Kong Building Ordinance of the Government of Hong Kong. He is also a Registered Professional Engineer (Building Stream) and a Registered Professional Surveyor (General Practice Stream).

The Nomination Committee considers that in view of their diverse background as set out in Appendix II to this circular, the re-elections of Mr. Zou and Mr. Siu as independent non-executive Directors, will bring valuable perspectives, knowledge, skills and experiences to the Board for its efficient and effective functioning and their re-elections will contribute to the diversity of the Board appropriate to the requirements of the Company’s business.

The Nomination Committee has also assessed the independence of all the independent non-executive Directors (“INEDs”). All the INEDs satisfy the Independence Guidelines as set out in Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules and has each provided to the Company an annual written confirmation of his independence.

The biographical details of the Directors proposed to be re-elected at the 2026 AGM are set out in Appendix II to this circular.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

RE-APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS

The Board (which agrees with the view of the Audit Committee) recommends that, subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the 2026 AGM, Rongcheng (Hong Kong) CPA Limited be re-appointed as the Auditors for the financial year ending 31 December 2026.

GENERAL MANDATE

The Directors have been granted a general unconditional mandate to allot, issue and deal with Shares pursuant to an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders passed at the 2025 annual general meeting held on 28 May 2025. The general mandate would expire: (a) at the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (b) at the expiration of the period within which the Company is required by the Articles or any other applicable laws of the Cayman Islands to hold its next annual general meeting; or (c) when revoked, varied or renewed by an ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting, whichever is the earliest.

As at the Latest Practicable Dare, such general mandate had not been utilised and will lapse at the conclusion of the 2026 AGM. An ordinary resolution will be proposed at the 2026 AGM that the Directors be granted the General Mandate to allot, issue and deal with new Shares not exceeding 20% of the total number of Shares in issue (excluding treasury shares, if any) on the date of passing the relevant resolution (i.e. a maximum of 234,733,396 Shares to be issued by the Company, on the basis that the total number of Shares in issue of 1,173,666,981 Shares remains unchanged from the Latest Practicable Date to the date of the 2026 AGM).

Details of the aforesaid ordinary resolution are set out in ordinary resolution no. 4 in the Notice of the 2026 AGM.

REPURCHASE MANDATE

The Directors have been granted a general unconditional mandate to exercise the power of the Company to repurchase Shares pursuant to an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders passed at the 2025 annual general meeting held on 28 May 2025. The repurchase mandate would expire: (a) at the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (b) at the expiration of the period within which the Company is required by the Articles or any other applicable laws of the Cayman Islands to hold its next annual general meeting; or (c) when revoked, varied or renewed by an ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting, whichever is the earliest.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the existing repurchase mandate had not been utilised and will lapse at the conclusion of the 2026 AGM. Therefore, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the 2026 AGM that the Directors be granted the Repurchase Mandate to exercise all the powers of the Company to purchase or repurchase Shares not exceeding 10% of the total number of Share in issue (excluding treasury shares, if any) on the date of passing the relevant resolution (i.e. a maximum of 117,366,698 Shares to be repurchased by the Company, on the basis that the total number of Shares in issue of 1,173,666,981 Shares remains unchanged from the Latest Practicable Date to the date of the 2026 AGM).


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Details of the aforesaid ordinary resolution are set out in ordinary resolution no. 5 in the Notice of the 2026 AGM.

An explanatory statement giving the particulars required under Rule 10.06(1)(b) of the Listing Rules in respect of the Repurchase Mandate to provide the Shareholders with all the information reasonably necessary to enable them to make an informed decision whether to vote for or against the resolution is set out in Appendix I to this circular.

EXTENSION MANDATE

In addition, subject to the passing of the resolutions to grant the General Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the 2026 AGM to authorise the Directors to extend the General Mandate to allot and issue Shares by an amount of Shares representing the total number of Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to the authority granted to the Directors under the Repurchase Mandate provided that such extended amount shall not exceed 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing the resolution for approving the Repurchase Mandate.

The General Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate would expire at the earliest of: (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company following the 2026 AGM; or (b) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles, the Cayman Companies Act or the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands to be held; or (c) when revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in a general meeting prior to the next annual general meeting of the Company.

Details of the aforesaid ordinary resolution are set out in ordinary resolution no. 6 in the Notice of the 2026 AGM.

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION AND ADOPTION OF THE THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

The Board resolved at a meeting on 31 March 2026 to propose (i) to make certain amendments (the "Proposed Amendments") to the second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company currently in force (the "Existing Memorandum and Articles of Association") in connection with the latest regulatory requirements of the Listing Rules relating to the enabling of convening and holding of virtual or hybrid general meetings and vote casting by electronic means as well as the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and treasury shares, and in preparation for the uncertificated securities market regime; and (ii) to adopt the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company (the "Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association") incorporating and consolidating all the Proposed Amendments, in substitution for, and to the exclusion of, the Existing Memorandum and Articles of Association.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The legal advisers to the Company as to Hong Kong laws and Cayman Laws have confirmed that the Proposed Amendments comply with the requirements of the Listing Rules and are not inconsistent with the laws of the Cayman Islands respectively. The Board confirms that there is nothing unusual about the Proposed Amendments for a company listed in Hong Kong. The Board considers that the Proposed Amendments are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Details of the Proposed Amendments are set out in Appendix III to this circular. The Proposed Amendments are prepared in the English language. The Chinese translation of the Proposed Amendments is for reference only. In case there are any inconsistencies between the English version and the Chinese version, the English version shall prevail.

The notice convening the 2026 AGM to be held at 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 27 May 2026 at Unit B, 14/F., Microsoft Science and Technology Building, No. 55 Gaoxin South 9th Road, Gaoxin Community, Yuehai Street, Nanshan District, Shenzhen, the PRC is set out on pages 36 to 40 of this circular. At the 2026 AGM, ordinary resolutions will be proposed to approve, among other matters, the adoption of the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2025 together with the reports of the Directors and Auditors, the re-election of retiring Directors, the re-appointment of Auditors, the granting of the General Mandate, the granting of the Repurchase Mandate and the granting of the Extension Mandate.

VOTING AT THE 2026 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, any vote of the Shareholders at a general meeting of the Company must be taken by poll except where the chairman, in good faith, decides to allow a resolution which relates purely to a procedural or administrative matter to be voted on by a show of hands. Accordingly, the resolutions to be considered and, if thought fit, approved at the 2026 AGM will be voted by way of a poll by the Shareholders. An announcement on the poll results will be made by the Company after the 2026 AGM, in the manner prescribed under Rule 13.39(5) of the Listing Rules, on the results of the 2026 AGM.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

RECOMMENDATION

At the 2026 AGM, ordinary resolutions will be proposed to approve, among other matters, the adoption of audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2025 together with the reports of the Directors and Auditors, the re-election of retiring Directors, the re-appointment of Auditors, the granting of the General Mandate, the granting of the Repurchase Mandate and granting of the Extension Mandate.

The Directors believe that the proposed grant of the General Mandate, the Repurchase Mandate, the Extension Mandate, the re-election of retiring Director and the re-appointment of the Auditors are in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders. The Directors believe that an exercise of the General Mandate will enable the Company to take advantage of market conditions to raise additional capital for the Company. The Repurchase Mandate may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be exercised when the Directors believe that such repurchase of Shares will benefit the Company and the Shareholders. An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in full may have a material adverse impact on the working capital and/or gearing position of the Company. The Directors do not, however, intend to make any repurchase in circumstances that would have a material adverse impact on the working capital requirements or the gearing levels of the Company. The Proposed Amendments and the adoption of the Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association are in the interests of the Group and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Directors recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of all resolutions to be proposed at the 2026 AGM.

CLOSURE OF REGISTER OF MEMBERS

The register of members of the Company for the 2026 AGM will be closed from Thursday, 21 May 2026 to Wednesday, 27 May 2026, both days inclusive, during which no transfer of Shares will be registered. In order to qualify for attending and voting at the 2026 AGM or any adjournment thereof, all transfers of Shares accompanied by the relevant share certificates and transfer forms must be lodged with Boardroom Share Registrars (HK) Limited, the Company's Hong Kong branch share registrar and transfer office, at Room 2103B, 21/F, 148 Electric Road, North Point, Hong Kong not later than 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, 20 May 2026.

RESPONSIBILITY OF DIRECTORS

This circular, for which the Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief the information contained in this circular is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this circular misleading.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

Appendix I serves as an explanatory statement, as required pursuant to Rule 10.06(1)(b) and other relevant provisions of the Listing Rules, to provide you with the requisite information reasonably necessary to enable you to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution to approve the grant of the Repurchase Mandate.

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 SFC subject to certain restrictions. Among such restrictions, the Listing Rules provide that the shares of such company must be fully paid up and all repurchases 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, a total of 1,173,666,981 Shares were in issue.

Assuming that no further Shares are issued or repurchased during the period from the Latest Practicable Date until the 2026 AGM, exercising in full of the Repurchase Mandate, on the basis of 1,173,666,981 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date, could result in up to a maximum of 117,366,698 Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) being repurchased by the Company.

3. REASONS FOR REPURCHASE

The Directors have no present intention to repurchase any Shares but consider that the Repurchase Mandate will provide the Company with the flexibility to make such repurchase when appropriate and beneficial to the Company. Such repurchases, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, may lead to enhancement of the net asset value of the Company and/or the 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. The number of Shares to be repurchased on any occasion and the price and other terms on which the same are repurchased will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time, having regard to the circumstances then pertaining.

If the Company purchases any Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, the Company will either (i) cancel the Shares repurchased and/or (ii) hold such Shares in treasury, subject to market conditions and the Company's capital management needs at the relevant time any repurchases of Shares are made.

To the extent that any treasury shares are deposited with Central Clearing and Settlement System ("CCASS") pending resale on the Stock Exchange, the Company will adopt appropriate measures to ensure that it does not exercise any shareholders' rights or receive any entitlements which would otherwise be suspended under the applicable laws if those shares were registered in the Company's own name as treasury shares. These measures may include approval by the Board

  • 12 -

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

that (i) the Company would not (or would 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, (ii) in the case of dividends or distributions (if any and where applicable), withdrawing 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 relevant record date for the dividends or distributions; and (iii) take any other appropriate measures to ensure that it will not exercise any shareholders' rights or receive any entitlements which would otherwise be suspended under the applicable laws if those Shares were registered in its own name as treasury shares.

4. SOURCE OF FUNDS

The Company is empowered by the Articles to repurchase its Shares. In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles, the Cayman Companies Act, the Listing Rules and/or other applicable laws, rules and regulations, as the case may be.

Any repurchases of Shares by the Company may only be made out of profits of the Company or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose or, if authorized by the Articles and subject to the Cayman Companies Act and/or other applicable laws, rules and regulations, out of capital. The premium, if any, payable on repurchase of Shares must be provided for out of the profits of the Company or out of the Company's share premium account before or at the time the Shares are repurchased or, if authorized by the Articles and subject to Cayman Companies Act and/or other applicable laws, rules and regulations, out of capital. The Shares so repurchased will be treated as cancelled but the aggregate amount of authorized share capital will not be reduced.

The Company may not repurchase its own Shares on the Stock Exchange for a consideration other than cash or settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Stock Exchange.

5. IMPACT ON WORKING CAPITAL OR GEARING POSITION

An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in full may have a material adverse impact on the working capital and gearing position of the Company compared with those as at 31 December 2025, being the date of its latest published audited consolidated financial statements. The Directors do not, however, intend to make any repurchase of Shares in the circumstances that would have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company.


APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

6. DISCLOSURE OF INTERESTS

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates has any present intention, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by Shareholders and exercised, to sell any of their Shares to the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

No core connected person of the Company has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell any of his/her/its Shares to the Company or has undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by him/her/it to the Company, in the event that the Company is authorized to make repurchases of Shares.

7. THE TAKEOVERS CODE

If, on the exercise of the power to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase may be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under 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 for all the Shares not already owned by such Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, according to the register kept by the Company pursuant to Section 336 of the SFO and so far as is known to, or can be ascertained after reasonable enquiry by the Directors, the following persons were directly or indirectly interested in 5% or more of the issued share capital of the Company. Their respective interest as at the Latest Practicable Date is shown under the column “Approximate % of the issued share capital before a possible exercise of the Repurchase Mandate” while the respective interest in the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares in accordance with the terms of the ordinary resolution in

The Company shall retain the instrument of transfer. Where Shares are transferred in uncertificated form, no certificate shall be required to be surrendered or issued, and the transfer of Shares shall be registered in accordance with the applicable uncertificated securities regime. | Certificate to be given up on transfer |
| 61(b) | In the event of a forfeiture of Shares the Shareholder shall be bound to deliver and shall forthwith deliver to the Company the certificate or certificates (if share certificate(s) have been issued) held by him for the Shares so forfeited and in any event the certificates representing Shares so forfeited shall be void and of no further effect. If the relevant Shares are held in uncertificated form, the Company shall take such steps as may be required under the applicable uncertificated securities regime to give effect to the forfeiture. | |
| 63 | All general meetings other than annual general meetings shall be called extraordinary general meetings. All general meetings (including an annual general meeting, an extraordinary general meeting, any adjourned meeting or postponed meeting) may be held as a physical meeting, as a hybrid meeting or as an electronic meeting, as may be determined by the Board in its absolute discretion, and participation in such a meeting in any location(s) shall constitute presence at such meetings.
