LETTER FROM THE BOARD

An ordinary resolution no. 5 set out in the AGM Notice will be proposed at the 2021 AGM to grant Share Issue Mandate to the Directors so as to give the Directors the flexibility to issue Shares when it is in the interest of the Company. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 1,411,208,000 fully paid-up Shares. If there is no allotment or repurchase of the Shares prior to the date of the 2021 AGM, the Company shall be authorized under the Share Issue Mandate to allot, issue and deal with a maximum of 141,120,800 Shares, being 10% of the Shares in issue as at the date of the 2021 AGM.

In addition, an ordinary resolution no. 7 as set out in the AGM Notice will be proposed at the 2021 AGM to grant to the Directors to extend the Share Issue Mandate by adding any Shares repurchased under the Share Repurchase Mandate to the total number of Shares which may be allotted and issued under the Share Issue Mandate.

3. SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

At the last annual general meeting of the Company held on 6 August 2020, a general mandate was given to the Directors to repurchase Shares in accordance with the Listing Rules. Such general mandate will lapse at the conclusion of the 2021 AGM.

An ordinary resolution no. 6 as set out in the AGM Notice will be proposed at the 2021 AGM to grant Share Repurchase Mandate to the Directors. If there is no allotment or repurchase of the Shares prior to the date of the 2021 AGM, the Company shall be authorized under the Share Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 141,120,800 Shares, being 10% of the Shares in issue as at the date of the 2021 AGM.

6. VOTING BY POLL

Pursuant to the article 90 of the Articles, at any general meeting a resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a show of hands unless (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands or on the withdrawal of any other demand for a poll) a poll is duly demanded or otherwise required under the Listing Rules. A poll may be demanded by:

  • (a) the chairman of the meeting; or

  • (b) at least five members present in person (or in the case of a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or by proxy and entitled to vote; or

  • (c) any member or members present in person (or in the case of a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or by proxy and representing in the aggregate not less than one-tenth of the total voting rights of all members having the right to attend and vote at the meeting; or

Pursuant to the Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, any vote of Shareholders at general meeting of the Company must be taken by way of poll.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

APPENDIX I

The following serves as an explanatory statement in compliance with the Listing Rules to give all the information reasonably necessary to enable Shareholders to make an informed decision as to whether to vote for or against the resolution numbered 6 of the AGM Notice in relation to the Share Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company was HK$1,411,208 comprising 1,411,208,000 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the relevant ordinary resolution to approve the Share Repurchase Mandate (as set out in resolution numbered 6 of the AGM Notice) and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased, the Company would be authorized under the Share Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 141,120,800 Shares during the period ending on the earliest of the date of the next annual general meeting following the 2021 AGM, the date by which the next annual general meeting following the 2021 AGM of the Company is required by the Articles or any applicable laws of the Cayman Islands to be held or the date upon which such authority is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.

2. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Board wishes to state that it has no immediate plans to repurchase any Shares but consider that the Share Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets and/or earnings per share of the Company and/or liquidity of the Shares.

There might be material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company as compared with the financial position of the Company as at 31 March 2021 (being the date to which the latest audited financial statements of the Company were made up) in the event that the Share Repurchase Mandate is carried out in full during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its Memorandum and Articles of Association and all applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the Listing Rules. Subject to the foregoing, any repurchases by the Company may be made out of its funds which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose of the repurchase.

4. MARKET PRICES

The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares have been traded on the Stock Exchange in each of the month during the previous twelve months up to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

Highest Lowest

HK$ HK$
July 2020 4.06 3.55

May 2021 5.18 4.92
June 2021 5.78 4.63
the Latest Practicable Date 4.71 4.56

5. DIRECTORS, ASSOCIATES AND CONNECTED PERSON

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective associates, has any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries under the Share Repurchase Mandate in the event that such mandate is approved by Shareholders.

No connected person, as defined in the Listing Rules, has notified the Company that he/she has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, nor has he/she undertaken not to do so in the event that the Share Repurchase Mandate is approved by Shareholders.

6. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, all applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

APPENDIX I

7. EFFECT OF TAKEOVERS CODE

If on the exercise of the power to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate, 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 the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning of 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 Shares not already owned by such Shareholder or group of Shareholders.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Toray Industries, Inc. is beneficially interested in 405,394,000 Shares representing approximately 28.73% of the issued share capital of the Company.

In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares under the Share Repurchase Mandate, then (if the shareholdings otherwise remain the same) the interest of Toray Industries, Inc. in the Company would be increased from approximately 28.73% to approximately 31.92% of the total issued share capital of the Company. In the opinion of the Directors, such increase would give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code. The Directors have no present intention to exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate to an extent which may result in any possible mandatory offer being made under the Takeovers Code.

8. SHARES REPURCHASES MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company had not repurchased any Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.
