R&D investment is substantial, and the development of new products is subject to various risks, including lengthy R&D cycles, inherent uncertainties in R&D, difficulties in commercialisation of scientific research achievements, failure to obtain successful registration or filing for new products, inability of new products to meet market demand, and rapid changes in market demand. At present, downstream customers continue to raise their performance requirements for cathode materials. This has driven industry participants, including the Company, to continuously increase their efforts in the improvement and R&D of cathode materials, with a view to developing cathode materials featuring higher energy density while maintaining a high level of safety. If the risks associated with the Company's new product R&D are not effectively addressed, the progress of new product development and the market commercialisation of such products may be adversely affected. In severe cases, the Company may lose its existing technological advantages.

In response to this risk, the Company will continuously enhance its technological R&D capabilities, expand its R&D team, and further improve its R&D processes, while strengthening market information feedback and monitoring industry R&D trends, so as to conduct in-depth feasibility studies on new product R&D projects and thereby mitigate R&D risks.

  1. Risk of loss of core technical personnel and countermeasures

The lithium battery cathode material industry is a technology-intensive sector. The R&D and production of new products, the improvement of production processes, and the enhancement of existing product performance all require the participation of technical personnel. Therefore, core technical

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

personnel are an important resource for the sustainable development of enterprises in the industry. With the rapid development of the industry, the continuous entry of new enterprises will inevitably lead to competition for professionals, and some enterprises have experienced the loss of core technical personnel.

To address the aforementioned risks, firstly, the Company will attach importance to the accumulation of R&D experience in practice and gradually formulate systematic technical documents to ensure the preservation and inheritance of its technologies; Secondly, we will establish and continuously improve the talent training mechanism, career path planning mechanism, promotion and incentive mechanism, performance appraisal mechanism, and equity incentive mechanism, so as to provide appropriate channels for the development and promotion of high-end and sophisticated talents; Lastly, the Company will continue to protect its technological development achievements by means of applying for intellectual property protection and joining intellectual property alliances, further improve the construction of the technical confidentiality system, and strengthen technical confidentiality efforts, so as to prevent the leakage of core technologies.

(F) Project Filing and Approval Status

The Phase III project of the "Large-scale Production Project of NEV Power and Energy Storage Cathode Material", which involves the revised construction content, has completed project filing in Pengxi County Administrative Approval Bureau (Filing No.: Chuan Investment Filings [2511-510921-99-01-560054]) No. FGQB-1358, and is still necessary to complete procedures such as environmental impact assessment (EIA) and energy assessment (EA).
