(III) PROPOSED RIGHTS ISSUE ON THE BASIS OF FIVE (5) RIGHTS
SHARES OF EVERY ONE (1) CONSOLIDATED SHARE HELD ON
THE RECORD DATE ON A NON-UNDERWRITTEN BASIS; AND
(IV) NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the Announcement.

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with, among other things, (i) further information on the Rights Issue and the transactions contemplated thereunder; (ii) a letter from the Independent Board Committee to the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Rights


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Issue; (iii) a letter of advice from the Independent Financial Adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Rights Issue; and (iv) a notice convening the EGM.

1. PROPOSED SHARE CONSOLIDATION

The Board proposes to implement the Share Consolidation on the basis that every five (5) issued and unissued Shares of par value of HK$0.001 each be consolidated into one (1) Consolidated Share of HK$0.005 each.

Effects of the Share Consolidation

As of the Latest Practicable Date, the authorised share capital of the Company is HK$1,000,000 divided into 1,000,000,000 Shares with par value of HK$0.001 each, of which 255,728,860 Shares have been issued and are fully paid or credited as fully paid.

Assuming that no further Shares will be issued or repurchased from the date hereof until the date of the EGM, immediately upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the authorised share capital of the Company will become HK$1,000,000 divided into 200,000,000 Consolidated Shares with par value of HK$0.005 each, of which 51,145,772 Consolidated Shares will be in issue and fully paid or credited as fully paid.

Upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the Consolidated Shares shall rank pari passu in all respects with each other, and the Share Consolidation will not result in any change in the relative rights of the Shareholders.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, the Company has outstanding Share Options entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for a total of 170,496 Shares under the Share Option Scheme. Save for the Share Options, the Company does not have any other derivatives, options, warrants, other securities, conversion rights, or similar rights that are convertible or exchangeable into Shares or Consolidated Shares.

Other than the expenses to be incurred in relation to the Share Consolidation, the implementation thereof will not alter the underlying assets, business operations, management or financial position of the Company or the proportionate interests or rights of the Shareholders, save for any fractional Consolidated Shares will not be allocated to the Shareholders who may otherwise be entitled.

Conditions of the Share Consolidation

The Share Consolidation is conditional upon the following conditions:

(i) the passing of an ordinary resolution by the Shareholders at the EGM to approve the Share Consolidation;

(ii) the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange granting the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective; and

  • 13 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

(iii) the compliance with all relevant procedures and requirements under the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the Listing Rules to effect the Share Consolidation.

Subject to the fulfilment of the conditions of the Share Consolidation, the effective date of the Share Consolidation is expected to be on 18 August 2025.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, none of the conditions above have been fulfilled.

Application for listing of the Consolidated Shares

The Company will make an application to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective.

Subject to the granting of listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares on the Stock Exchange upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, as well as compliance with the stock admission requirements of the HKSCC, the Consolidated Shares will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance and settlement in CCASS with effect from the commencement date of dealings in the Consolidated Shares on the Stock Exchange or such other date as determined by HKSCC. Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in CCASS on the second settlement day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and CCASS Operational Procedures, which are in effect from time to time. All necessary arrangements will be made for the Consolidated Shares to be admitted into CCASS, which was established and operated by HKSCC.

None of the Shares are listed or dealt in any other stock exchange other than the Stock Exchange, and at the time the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the Consolidated Shares in issue will not be listed or dealt in on any stock exchange other than the Stock Exchange, and no such listing or permission to deal is being or is proposed to be sought.

Fractional entitlement to the Consolidated Shares

Fractional Consolidated Shares arising from the Share Consolidation, if any, will be disregarded and will not be allocated to the Shareholders but will be aggregated and, if possible, sold for the benefit of the Company. Fractional Consolidated Shares will only arise in respect of the entire shareholding of a holder of the Shares regardless of the number of share certificates held by such holder.

Odd lots arrangement and matching services

In order to facilitate the trading of odd lots (if any) of the Consolidated Shares arising from the Share Consolidation, the Company has appointed Orient Securities Limited as an agent to provide matching services, on a best effort basis, to those Shareholders who wish to acquire odd lots of the Consolidated Shares to make up a full


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Holders of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares should note that the matching of the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares is not guaranteed. Shareholders who have any doubt about the odd lots matching arrangement are advised to consult their own professional advisers.

Shareholders or potential investors should note that (i) odd lots will be created after the Share Consolidation; (ii) odd lots arrangements do not guarantee successful matching of all odd lots at the relevant market price; and (iii) odd lots might be sold below the market price in the market.

Exchange of share certificates

Subject to the Share Consolidation becoming effective, Shareholders may during the period from Monday, 18 August 2025 to Tuesday, 23 September 2025 (both days inclusive), submit share certificates for the Shares (in beige colour) to the Registrar at 17/F, Far East Finance Centre, 16 Harcourt Road, Hong Kong, in exchange, at the expense of the Company for new share certificates for the Consolidated Shares (in purple colour). Thereafter, share certificates for the Shares will be accepted for exchange only on payment of a fee of HK$2.50 (or such other amount as may be allowed by the Stock Exchange from time to time) for each share certificate for the Shares cancelled or each new share certificate issued for the Consolidated Shares, whichever the number of certificates cancelled/issued is higher.

The existing share certificates will only be valid for delivery, trading, and settlement purposes for the period up to 4:10 p.m. on Friday, 19 September 2025, and thereafter will not be accepted for delivery, trading, and settlement purposes. However, the existing share certificates will continue to be good evidence of title to the Consolidated Shares on the basis of five (5) Shares for one (1) Consolidated Share. The new share certificates for the Consolidated Shares will be issued in purple colour to distinguish them from the share certificates for the Shares, which are in beige colour.

Reasons for the Share Consolidation

Pursuant to Rule 13.64 of the Listing Rules, where the market price of the securities of an issuer approaches the extremities of HK$0.01 or HK$9,995.00, the Stock Exchange reserves the right to require the issuer either to change the trading method or proceed with a consolidation or splitting of securities. Further, the "Guide on Trading Arrangements for Selected Types of Corporate Actions" issued by the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited on 28 November 2008 and updated in September 2024 has further stated that (i) market price of the Shares at a level less than HK$0.10 each will be considered as

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

trading at extremity as referred to under Rule 13.64 of the Listing Rules; and (ii) taking into account the minimum transaction costs for a securities trade, the expected value per board lot should be greater than HK$2,000.

Since 17 February 2025, the share price of the Company has been trading below HK$0.15, and the closing price of the Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date was HK$0.159 per Share. The value of each existing board lot has been less than HK$2,000. Based on the closing price of HK$0.159 per Share as at the Latest Practicable Date and the existing board lot size of 5,000 Shares, the Board resolved to propose the Share Consolidation, resulting in HK$0.795 per Consolidated Share and HK$3,975 per board lot of 5,000 Consolidated Shares with the view to complying with the trading requirements under the Listing Rules.

The Board considers that the proposed Share Consolidation would bring about a corresponding upward adjustment in the trading price per Consolidated Share on the Stock Exchange. Further, the Share Consolidation would reduce the overall transaction and handling costs of dealings in the Shares as a proportion of the market value of each board lot, since most of the banks/securities houses will charge a minimum transaction cost for each securities trade.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, save as disclosed in this circular, the Company currently (i) does not have any agreement, arrangement, understanding, intention, or negotiation (either concluded or in process) on any potential fundraising activities which will involve issue of equity securities of the Company; and (ii) has no other plan or intention to carry out any future corporate actions in the next twelve months which may have an effect of undermining or negating the intended purpose of the Share Consolidation. However, in the event there is any change to the business environment and/or financial position of the Company due to unforeseeable circumstances, and the Company is required to conduct further fund raising exercises when suitable opportunities arise to support future development of the Group, the Company will publish further announcement(s) in compliance with the Listing Rules, as and when appropriate.

Given the above reasons, the Board considers that the Share Consolidation is justifiable, notwithstanding the potential costs and impact arising from creating odd lots to Shareholders. Accordingly, the Board believes that the Share Consolidation is beneficial to and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Board believes that the Share Consolidation will not have any material adverse effect on the Group's financial position or result in a change in the relative rights of the Shareholders.

Shareholders and potential investors should be aware of and take note that the Share Consolidation is conditional upon satisfaction of the conditions set out in the paragraph headed "Conditions of the Share Consolidation". Accordingly, the Share Consolidation may or may not proceed. Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the Shares, and if they are in any doubt about their position, they should consult their professional advisers.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

2. PROPOSED INCREASE IN AUTHORISED SHARE CAPITAL

As of the Latest Practicable Date, the authorised share capital of the Company is HK$1,000,000 divided into 1,000,000,000 Shares with par value of HK$0.001 each, of which 255,728,860 Shares have been issued and are fully paid or credited as fully paid.

Immediately upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective and assuming there will be no change to the total issued share capital of the Company between the Latest Practicable Date and the effective date of the Share Consolidation, the authorised share capital of the Company will become HK$1,000,000 divided into 200,000,000 Consolidated Shares with par value of HK$0.005 each, of which 51,145,772 Consolidated Shares have been issued and are fully paid or credited as fully paid.

To facilitate the Rights Issue and enable the future expansion and growth of the Group while also providing the Company with increased flexibility to raise funds, the Board proposes to increase the authorised share capital of the Company from HK$1,000,000 divided into 200,000,000 Consolidated Shares to HK$5,000,000 divided into 1,000,000,000 Consolidated Shares by the creation of an additional 800,000,000 new Consolidated Shares.

The Board believes the Increase in Authorised Share Capital will give the Company more flexibility for future fundraising. Therefore, the Board considers this decision to be in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders.

The Increase in Authorised Share Capital is conditional upon, among other things, (i) the passing of an ordinary resolution by the Shareholders at the EGM to approve the Increase in Authorised Share Capital; and (ii) the Share Consolidation has become effective.

3. PROPOSED RIGHTS ISSUE

Subject to the Share Consolidation and the Increase in Authorised Share Capital becoming effective, the Board proposes to raise gross proceeds of up to approximately HK$127.86 million, net of expenses, through a Rights Issue of 255,728,860 Rights Shares at the Subscription Price of HK$0.5 per Rights Share based on five (5) Rights Shares for every one (1) Consolidated Share held by the Qualifying Shareholders on the Record Date. The Rights Issue is only available to the Qualifying Shareholders and will not be available to Non-Qualifying Shareholders.

Subject to the fulfilment of the conditions of the Rights Issue, the Rights Issue will proceed on a non-underwritten basis irrespective of the level of acceptance of the provisionally allotted Rights Shares.

Further details of the Rights Issue are set out below:

Issue statistics

Basis of the Rights Issue: five (5) Rights Shares for every one (1) Consolidated Share held by the Qualifying Shareholders at the close of business on the Record Date

  • 17 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Subscription Price: HK$0.5 per Rights Share
Net Subscription Price (after expenses): HK$0.49 per Rights Share
Number of Shares in issue as of the Latest Practicable Date: 255,728,860 Shares
Number of Consolidated Shares upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective: 51,145,772 Consolidated Shares (assuming that there is no further issue or repurchase of new Shares between the Latest Practicable Date and the effective date of the Share Consolidation)
Number of Rights Shares: Up to 255,728,860 Rights Shares (assuming there is no further issue or repurchase of new Shares between the Latest Practicable Date and the Record Date)
Gross proceeds from the Rights Issue: Up to approximately HK$127.86 million before expenses (assuming there is no further issue or repurchase of new Shares between the Latest Practicable Date and the Record Date and all Rights Shares are taken up by the Qualifying Shareholders or the Unsubscribed Rights Shares are successfully placed by the Placing Agent under the Placing)

Assuming there is no change to the total issued capital of the Company on or before the Record Date, 255,728,860 Rights Shares to be issued pursuant to the terms of the Rights Issue represents (i) 500% of the theoretical total issued share capital of the Company (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as at the Latest Practicable Date; and (ii) 83.33% of the theoretical total issued share capital of the Company (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as enlarged by the allotment and issuance of the Rights Shares immediately upon Completion.

Undertakings

The Company has not received any information or irrevocable undertaking from any Substantial Shareholder of the Company of any intention in relation to the Rights Shares to be provisionally allotted to that Shareholder under the Rights Issue as at the Latest Practicable Date.

Qualifying Shareholders

The Rights Issue is only available to the Qualifying Shareholders. The Company will send (i) the Prospectus Documents to the Qualifying Shareholders; and (ii) the Overseas Letter together with the Prospectus, for information only, to the Non-Qualifying Shareholders.

  • 18 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

To qualify for the Rights Issue, the Shareholders must at the close of business on the Record Date: (i) be registered on the registers of members of the Company; and (ii) not be the Non-Qualifying Shareholders.

In order to be registered as members of the Company on the Record Date, the Shareholders must lodge any transfer of the Shares (with the relevant share certificates) for registration with the Registrar by 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, 20 August 2025.

Closure of register of members

The register of members of the Company will be closed from Friday, 8 August 2025 to Thursday, 14 August 2025 (both days inclusive) to determine whether the Shareholders are eligible to attend and vote at the EGM, the period during which no transfer of shares will be registered.

The register of members will be closed from Thursday, 21 August 2025 to Wednesday, 27 August 2025 (both days inclusive) to determine the entitlements to the Rights Issue, the period during which no transfer of Shares will be registered.

Subscription Price

The Subscription Price of HK$0.5 per Rights Share is payable in full by a Qualifying Shareholder upon acceptance of the relevant provisional allotment of the Rights Shares and, where applicable, when a transferee of the nil-paid Rights Shares subscribes for the Rights Shares.

The Subscription Price represents:

(i) a discount of approximately 22.48% to the theoretical closing price of HK$0.645 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Trading Day;

(ii) a discount of approximately 20.63% to the average theoretical closing price of approximately HK$0.63 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five (5) consecutive trading days prior to the Last Trading Day;

(iii) a discount of approximately 22.12% to the average theoretical closing price of approximately HK$0.642 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the late ten (10) consecutive trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day;

(iv) a discount of approximately 4.62% to the theoretical ex-rights price of approximately HK$0.5242 per Consolidated Share as adjusted for the effect of the Rights Issue, based on the theoretical closing price of HK$0.645 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Trading Day;

  • 19 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

(v) a theoretical dilution effect (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules) represented by a discount of approximately 18.73%, which is calculated based on the theoretical diluted price of approximately HK$0.5242 per Consolidated Share to the benchmarked price of approximately HK$0.645 per Consolidated Share (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules, taking account the higher of (i) the closing price of the Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Trading Day and (ii) the average of the theoretical closing prices of the Consolidated Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the five (5) previous consecutive trading days prior to the Last Trading Day);

(vi) a premium of approximately HK$2.82 over the audited net liability value per Consolidated Share of approximately HK$2.32 based on the latest audited consolidated net liabilities of the Group of approximately RMB111.35 million (equivalent to approximately HK$118.51 million) as at 31 December 2024 and the theoretical number of Consolidated Shares (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) in issue as at the Last Trading Day (i.e. 255,728,860 Shares/5 = 51,145,772 Consolidated Shares); and

(vii) a discount of approximately 37.11% to the theoretical closing price of HK$0.795 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date.

The theoretical diluted price, the benchmarked price, and theoretical dilution effect for the Rights Issue are approximately HK$0.5242 per Consolidated Share, HK$0.645 per Consolidated Share, and 18.73%, respectively. Despite the theoretical dilution effect of 18.73%, it is the combined effect of achieving the fund raising requirement and the determination of the Subscription Price to attract Shareholders in participating in the Rights Issue (as detailed below), the Rights Issue represents the Group's ability to raise new capital, to improve its gearing and financial performance by lowering the level of debt and financing costs of the Group. The Rights Issue will not result in a theoretical dilution effect of 25% or more on its own. As such, the theoretical dilution impact of the Rights Issue is in compliance with Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules.

The Subscription Price was arrived at after an arm's length negotiation, based on, among other things, the prevailing market price of the Shares and the Group's financial conditions.

In determining the Subscription Price, the Directors have considered, among other thing as mentioned above, the closing price in the past three months prior to and including the Last Trading Day (the "Relevant Period"), as a benchmark to reflect the prevailing market conditions and recent market sentiment. During the Relevant Period, the Shares were traded on the Stock Exchange with an average closing price of approximately HK$0.64 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation). The Subscription Price represents a discount of approximately 21.88% to the average closing price of the Shares of HK$0.64 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) under the Relevant Period. In addition,


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

the average daily trading volume was approximately 228,750 Shares, representing approximately 0.09% of the total number of issued Shares as at the Last Trading Day. Such relatively low average daily trading volume indicating a lack of liquidity and demand for the Shares.

In consideration of the above factors, in particular the weak market sentiment in the capital market in Hong Kong as a whole and in the Shares of the Company, and the anticipated market response to the Rights Issue, the Board is of the view that the Subscription Price should act as a market catalyst to attract Shareholders and investors to participate in the Rights Issue.

On the basis of the lack of liquidity and demand for the Shares, and in view of the funding needs of the Company, as discussed in the section headed "Reasons for the Rights Issue and the intended use of proceeds" in this circular, the Subscription Price was set at a discount to the benchmarked price of the Shares as described above to lower the further investment costs of the Shareholders so as to encourage Shareholders in taking up their entitlements to maintain their shareholdings in the Company, thereby minimizing dilution impact.

The Directors (excluding the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the terms of the Rights Issue (including the Subscription Price) are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Status of the Rights Shares

The Rights Shares (when allotted, issued, and fully paid) will rank pari passu in all respects with the Consolidated Shares in issue on the date of allotment and issue of the Rights Shares. Holders of the Rights Shares will be entitled to receive all future dividends and distributions, which may be declared, made, or paid on or after the date of allotment and issue of the fully paid Rights Shares.

Basis of provisional allotments

The basis of the provisional allotment shall be five (5) Rights Shares (in nil-paid form) for every one (1) Consolidated Share held by the Qualifying Shareholders as at the close of business on the Record Date.

Qualifying Shareholders may apply for all or any part of their respective provisional allotment by lodging a duly completed PAL(s) and a cheque or a banker's cashier order for the sum payable for the Rights Shares being applied for with the Registrar on or before the Latest Time for Acceptance.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Rights of the Overseas Shareholders

The Prospectus Documents are not intended to be, have not been, and will not be registered or filed under the applicable securities legislation of any jurisdiction other than Hong Kong. Overseas Shareholder(s) may not be eligible to participate in the Rights Issue.

According to the register of members of the Company as of the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had a total of 3 Overseas Shareholders holding an aggregate of 61,004,896 Shares, representing approximately 23.86% of the total number of the issued Shares, all of which have his/her addresses registered in the PRC, Republic of Seychelles, and Canada.

Pursuant to Rule 13.36(2)(a) of the Listing Rules, the Directors have conducted inquiries into the feasibility of extending the Rights Issue to Overseas Shareholders with registered addresses in the listed jurisdictions. Shareholders having an address outside Hong Kong as shown on the register of members of the Company on the Record Date will not qualify for the Rights Issue if the Board, after making relevant enquiries with the legal advisers in the relevant jurisdictions, considers that the exclusion of such Overseas Shareholders from the Rights Issue would be necessary or expedient on account either of legal restrictions under the laws of the relevant place or any requirements of the relevant regulatory body or stock exchange in that place.

It is the responsibility of the Shareholders, including the Overseas Shareholders, wishing to make an application for the Rights Shares, to satisfy himself/herself/itself before taking up his/her/its provisional allotments under the Rights Issue, as to the observance of the laws and regulations of all relevant jurisdictions, including the obtaining of any governmental or other consents and to pay any taxes and duties required to be paid in such jurisdiction in connection with the taking up and onward sale of the Rights Shares.

The Company reserves the right to treat as invalid any acceptance of or application for the Rights Shares where it believes that such acceptance or application would violate the applicable securities or other laws or regulations of any territory or jurisdiction.

The Rights Issue does not constitute or form part of any offer or invitation to sell or issue, or any solicitation of any offer to acquire, nil-paid Rights Shares or fully paid Rights Shares or to take up any entitlements to nil-paid Rights Shares or fully-paid Rights Shares in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or solicitation is unlawful.

Arrangements will be made for the Rights Shares, which would otherwise have been provisionally allotted to the Non-Qualifying Shareholders, to be sold in the market in their nil-paid form as soon as practicable after dealings in the nil-paid Rights Shares commence and before dealings in the nil-paid Rights Shares end, if a premium (net of expenses) can be obtained. The proceeds from such sale, less expenses, of more than HK$100 will be paid pro rata to the relevant Non-Qualifying Shareholders. Given administrative costs, the Company will retain individual amounts of HK$100 or less for its benefit.

  • 22 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Any unsold entitlement of Non-Qualifying Shareholders to the Rights Shares and any Rights Shares provisionally allotted but not accepted by the Qualifying Shareholders will, if possible, be placed by the Placing Agent under the Unsubscribed Arrangements to investors who (or as the case may be, their ultimate beneficial owner(s)) are not Shareholders and are otherwise Independent Third Parties.

Overseas Shareholders should note that they may or may not be entitled to the Rights Issue. Accordingly, Overseas Shareholders should exercise caution when dealing with the Company's securities.

No fractional entitlement

Based on the entitlement to subscribe five (5) Rights Shares for every one (1) Consolidated Share held by the Qualifying Shareholders on the Record Date, no fractional entitlements to the Rights Shares will arise from the Rights Issue.

Application for listing

The Company will apply to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Rights Shares in both their nil-paid and fully paid forms to be issued and allotted pursuant to the Rights Issue. No part of the securities of the Company is listed or dealt in, and no listing of or permission to deal in any such securities is being or is proposed to be sought on any other stock exchanges.

Dealing in the Rights Shares in their nil-paid and fully paid forms will be in the board lots of 5,000 Rights Shares.

Rights Shares will be eligible for admission into CCASS

Subject to the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Rights Shares in both their nil-paid and fully-paid forms on the Stock Exchange, as well as compliance with the stock admission requirements of HKSCC, the Rights Shares in both their nilpaid and fully-paid forms, will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance, and settlement in CCASS with effect from the respective commencement dates of dealings in the Rights Shares in both their nil-paid and fully-paid forms on the Stock Exchange or such other dates as determined by HKSCC.

Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in CCASS on the second trading day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and CCASS Operational Procedures in effect from time to time. Shareholders should seek advice from their licensed securities dealer(s) or other professional adviser(s) for details of those settlement arrangements and how such arrangements will affect their rights and interests.

  • 23 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Stamp duty and other applicable fees

Dealings in the Rights Shares in both their nil-paid and fully paid forms will be subject to the payment of (i) stamp duty, (ii) the Stock Exchange trading fee, (iii) SFC transaction levy, and (iv) any other applicable fees and charges in Hong Kong.

Share certificates and refund cheques for Rights Issue

Subject to the fulfilment of the conditions of the Rights Issue as set out below, share certificates for all fully paid Rights Shares are expected to be posted to those entitled thereto by ordinary post to their registered address, at their own risks, on or before Tuesday, 21 October 2025.

If the Rights Issue does not become unconditional, refund cheques are expected to be despatched by ordinary post on or before Tuesday, 21 October 2025 at the respective Shareholders' own risk.

Non-underwritten basis

Subject to the fulfilment of the conditions of the Rights Issue, the Rights Issue will proceed on a non-underwritten basis irrespective of the level of acceptances of the provisionally allotted Rights Shares.

In the event the Rights Issue is not fully subscribed, any Rights Shares not taken up by the Qualifying Shareholders will be placed to independent places under the Unsubscribed Arrangements. Any Unsubscribed Rights Shares that remain not placed under the Unsubscribed Arrangements will not be issued by the Company and the size of the Rights Issue will be reduced accordingly. There is no minimum amount to be raised under the Rights Issue.

As the Rights Issue will proceed on a non-underwritten basis, Shareholder(s) who applies to take up all or part of his/her/its entitlement under the PAL(s) may unwittingly incur an obligation to make a general offer for the Shares under the Takeovers Code and/or potentially result in the Company's non-compliance of the Public Float Requirement of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the Rights Issue will be made on terms that the Company will provide for the Shareholders to apply on the basis that if the Rights Shares are not fully taken up, the application of any Shareholder (except for HKSCC Nominees Limited) for his/her/its assured entitlement under the Rights Issue will be scaled down by the Company to a level which (i) does not trigger an obligation on part of the relevant Shareholder to make a general offer under the Takeovers Code in accordance to the note to Rule 7.19(5)(b) of the Listing Rules; and/or (ii) does not result in the non-compliance of the Public Float Requirement. Any subscription monies not utilised due to the scaled-down application of entitled Rights Shares will be refunded to the affected applicants.

  • 24 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The scaling-down of applications for Rights Shares will be conducted in a fair and equitable manner, guided by the following principles:

(a) if the scale-down is necessary due to an exceeding of shareholding by a group of Qualifying Shareholders acting in concert (referred to as the “Affected Group(s) of Shareholders”) rather than an individual Qualifying Shareholder, the allocations of PAL(s) to members of the Affected Group(s) of Shareholders will be determined based on the number of Shares held by the affected applicants on the Record Date; and

(b) the allocations of PAL(s) to different Affected Group(s) of Shareholders and/or affected individual Qualifying Shareholders will be made on a pro rata basis, based on the number of Shares held by the affected applicant(s) and/or affected group(s) of applicant(s) on the Record Date.

Procedures in respect of the Unsubscribed Rights Shares and the Unsubscribed Arrangements

Pursuant to Rule 7.21(1)(b) of the Listing Rules, the Company must make arrangements to dispose of the Unsubscribed Rights Shares by offering the Unsubscribed Rights Shares to independent places for the benefit of the Shareholders to whom they were offered by way of the rights. There will be no excess application arrangements in relation to the Rights Issue as stipulated under Rule 7.21(1)(a) of the Listing Rules.

On 17 June 2025 (after trading hours), the Company entered into the Placing Agreement with the Placing Agent in relation to the placing of the Unsubscribed Rights Shares to independent places on a best-effort basis. According to the Placing Agreement, the Company has appointed the Placing Agent to place the Unsubscribed Rights Shares during the Placing Period to independent places on a best-effort basis, and any premium over the Subscription Price for those Rights Shares that is realised will be paid to those No Action Shareholders and Non-Qualifying Shareholders on a pro-rata basis. The Placing Agent will, on a best-effort basis, procure, by not later than 4:00 p.m. on Friday, 19 September 2025, acquirers for all (or as many as possible) of those Unsubscribed Rights Shares. Any Unsubscribed Rights Shares that are not placed will not be issued by the Company, and the size of the Rights Issue will be reduced accordingly.

Net Gain (if any) will be paid (without interest) to the No Action Shareholders and Non-Qualifying Shareholders as set out below on a pro-rata basis (but rounded down to the nearest cent):

A. the relevant Qualifying Shareholders (or such persons who hold any nil-paid rights at the time such nil-paid rights are lapsed) whose nil-paid rights are not validly applied for in full, by reference to the extent that Consolidated Shares in his/her/its nil-paid rights are not validly applied for; and

B. the relevant Non-Qualifying Shareholders with reference to their shareholdings in the Company on the Record Date.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Termination

: If any of the following events occur at any time prior to the Placing Long Stop Date, the Placing Agent may (after such consultation with the Company and/or its advisers as the circumstances shall admit or be necessary), by giving a written notice to the Company, at any time prior to the date of completion of the Placing provided that such notice is received by the Company prior to 6:00 p.m. on the Placing Long Stop Date, terminate the Placing Agreement without liability to the other parties and, subject to clauses in the Placing Agreement which survives termination, the Placing Agreement shall thereupon cease to have effect and none of the parties to the Placing Agreement shall have any rights or claims by reason thereof save for any rights or obligations which may accrue under the Placing Agreement prior to such termination:

(b) the introduction of any new law or regulation or any change in existing law or regulation (or the judicial interpretation thereof) or other occurrence of any matter whatsoever which may adversely affect the business or the financial or trading position or prospects of the Group as a whole; or

(c) any material breach of any of the representations and warranties by the Company comes to the knowledge of the Placing Agent or any event occurs or any matter arises on or after the date of the Placing Agreement and prior to the date of completion of the Placing which if it had occurred or arisen before the date of the Placing Agreement would have rendered any of such representations and warranties untrue or incorrect in any material respect or there has been a material breach by the Company of any other provision of the Placing Agreement; or

  • 28 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

(d) any moratorium, suspension or restriction on trading in shares or securities generally on the Stock Exchange due to exceptional financial circumstances; or

(e) there is any adverse change in the financial position of the Company which in the reasonable opinion of the Placing Agent is material in the context of the Placing.

The Unsubscribed Arrangements are in compliance with the requirements under Rule 7.21(1)(b) under which the No Action Shareholders may be compensated even if they do nothing (i.e. neither subscribe for Rights Shares nor sell their nil-paid rights) given that the Unsubscribed Rights Shares will be first offered to Independent Third Parties and any premium over the Subscription Price will be paid to the No Action Shareholders. The commission payable to the Placing Agent and the related fees and expenses in relation to such placing will be borne by the Company.

The Placing Agent confirms that it is an Independent Third Party. The terms of the Placing Agreement, including the placing commission, were determined after an arm's length negotiation between the Placing Agent and the Company with reference to the prevailing market rate and the Company considers the terms to be normal commercial terms.

The Company considers that the Unsubscribed Arrangements will provide a compensatory mechanism for the No Action Shareholders, protect the interests of the Independent Shareholders, and be fair and reasonable, in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Given that the Company has put in place the Unsubscribed Arrangements as required by Rule 7.21(1)(b) of the Listing Rules, there will be no excess application arrangements in relation to the Rights Issue as stipulated under Rule 7.21(1)(a) of the Listing Rules.

Conditions of the Rights Issue

  • 30 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As the proposed Rights Issue is subject to the above conditions, it may or may not proceed.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, none of the above conditions has been fulfilled.

Reasons for the Rights Issue and the intended use of proceeds

Assuming that the Rights Issue is fully accepted and no new shares will be allotted or issued on or before the Record Date, the net proceeds of the Rights Issue (the “Net Proceeds”) to be received by the Company, after deducting all estimated expenses payable for the Rights Issue, are estimated to be up to approximately HK$125.73 million. The Directors plan to use such proceeds as to (i) approximately HK$100.58 million, which represents approximately 80% of the Net Proceeds, for repayment of the Group’s current liabilities, specifically those debts, liabilities, or other payables that are expected to be due and payable within twelve months upon Completion, and (ii) approximately HK$25.15 million, which represents approximately 20% of the Net Proceeds, for the Group’s general corporate and administration working capital purposes, which primarily includes (a) staff salaries expenses of approximately HK$22.90 million; (b) rental expenses of approximately HK$0.56 million; and (c) business development expenses of approximately HK$0.43 million. These funds of HK$0.43 million will support the Company’s efforts in smart manufacturing and industrial automation, particularly in upgrading legacy systems and optimizing integrity management within petroleum and petrochemical operations, thereby supporting the Group’s ongoing business activities.

As disclosed in the Company’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2024, the Group experienced a net loss of approximately RMB73.54 million during the year ended 31 December 2024. As of the same date, the Group reported net current and total liabilities amounting to approximately RMB181.00 million and RMB111.35 million, respectively, with the Group’s bank and cash balances as at 31 May 2025 amounted to approximately RMB15.08 million. These circumstances indicate a material uncertainty that may seriously affect the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Specifically, according to the Group’s unaudited financial position as at 31 May 2025, the Group’s total outstanding bank and other borrowings, including both principal and interest, amount to approximately RMB202.45 million, which are due for repayment within the next twelve (12) months from the date of the Announcement.

(Note) | Independent third party | RMB3.59 million | 3.5% per annum | 31 December 2025 |

The Group plans to use the Net Proceeds to repay the above bank loans first, followed by the above outstanding other borrowings, in accordance with their respective maturity dates, unless the involved parties mutually agree to an extension.

To strengthen the Group's financial position, the Board plans to allocate 80% of the net proceeds to partially reduce outstanding borrowings, thereby improving the overall debt balance. The Group is committed to systematically repaying its remaining borrowings through operating cash flow primarily generated from its core business activities. These activities include but are not limited to the sale of power line communication products, energy-saving and environmental protection solutions, as well as the provision of essential maintenance services for the deployment and upgrades of automated meter reading systems utilized by power grid companies in the PRC.

Further, the Group must maintain sufficient cash reserves for essential expenditures to support ongoing operations and meet compliance obligations. These expenditures include, but are not limited to, legal and professional fees, Directors' remuneration, and staff costs, which amount to a total of not less than HK$6 million. However, according to the latest financial information available to the Board, the Group possesses idle cash reserves of approximately RMB1.4 million. Consequently, the Group must seek to raise additional capital to address its immediate financial commitments and working capital needs.

The Directors believe that the Rights Issue will raise the Group's corporate profile and enhance its capital base, enabling it to expand the scale and scope of its operations further.

Apart from the Rights Issue, the Directors have considered other debt/equity fund raising alternatives such as bank borrowings, placing, or an open offer. The Directors noted that bank borrowings will carry interest costs and may require the provision of security and creditors will rank before the Shareholders, and placings will dilute the interests of Shareholders without allowing them to take part in the exercise. As opposed to an open offer, the Rights Issue enables the Shareholders to sell the nil-paid rights in

  • 33 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

the market. The Rights Issue will allow the Qualifying Shareholders to maintain their respective pro-rata shareholding interests in the Company and to continue to participate in the future development of the Company.

Considering the abovementioned alternatives, the Directors consider raising funds through a Rights Issue more attractive in the current market conditions. The Rights Issue will enable the Company to strengthen its working capital base and enhance its financial position while allowing the Qualifying Shareholders to maintain their proportional shareholdings in the Company.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, save as disclosed in this circular, the Company currently (i) does not have any agreement, arrangement, understanding, intention, or negotiation (either concluded or in process) on any potential fundraising activities which will involve issue of equity securities of the Company; and (ii) has no other plan or intention to carry out any future corporate actions in the next twelve months which may have an effect of undermining or negating the intended purpose of the Rights Issue.

Furthermore, as at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company has no intention, understanding, negotiation, or arrangement to downsize, discontinue, or divest any part of its existing business.

Based on the above, the Board considers that raising capital through the Rights Issue is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. In addition, having considered the capital needs of the Group, the terms of the Rights Issue and the Subscription Price, the Board also considers that it is in the interests of the Company to proceed with the Rights Issue on a non-underwritten basis. However, those Qualifying Shareholders who do not take up the Rights Shares to which they are entitled and Non-Qualifying Shareholder(s), if any, should note that their shareholdings will be diluted.

Conclusion

If the proceeds raised by the Rights Issue is less than the aforesaid estimated net proceeds of approximately HK$125.73 million, the Company will allocate the use of proceeds proportionately and will further evaluate options including, amongst others, reducing the proposed investment amount or exploring other financing, and/or fundraising alternatives. The Group is focused on improving its profitability.

4. POSSIBLE ADJUSTMENT TO THE SHARE OPTIONS UNDER THE SHARE OPTION SCHEME

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 170,496 outstanding Share Options under the Share Option Scheme. No Share Option was granted to a Director, chief executive (as defined in the Listing Rule) or substantial shareholder of the Company or an associate of any of them under the Share Option Scheme since the adoption of the Share Option Scheme. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Option Scheme, the Rights Issue may lead to adjustments to, among others, the exercise price and/or the number of Shares to be issued upon exercise of the outstanding Share Options under the Share Option Scheme. The Company will notify the holders of such Share Options and the Shareholders by way of announcement (as and when

Notes:
1. Mr. Tsang Wah Tak Brian is an executive Director.
2. Both Mr. Ding Zhigang and Mr. Yu Lu are non-executive Directors.
3. This scenario is for illustrative purposes only. The Company has entered into the Placing Agreement, pursuant to which the Placing Agent has conditionally agreed to procure Placee(s), on a best-effort basis, to subscribe for the Unsubscribed Rights Shares.
4. Assuming (a) except for Ms. Liu Beibei, Ms. Fu Xiaoqin, Mr. Ding Zhigang, Mr. Yu Lu, and Mr. Tsang Wah Tak Brian, no Qualifying Shareholders takes up any of his/her/its entitlements under the Rights Issue; (b) none of the Unsubscribed Rights Shares are taken up by independent placee(s) under the Unsubscribed Arrangements; and (c) there is no change to the total issued share capital of the Company on or before the Record Date; upon Completion, there will be 30,143,881 Shares held by public Shareholders, representing approximately $19.30\%$ of the total issued Shares as enlarged by the allotment of the Rights Shares, which will be below the Public Float Requirement. In that case, the application of Mr. Ding Zhigang, Mr. Yu Lu, Mr. Tsang Wah Tak Brian, Ms. Liu Beibei and Ms. Fu Xiaoqin for their assured entitlement under the Rights Issue will be adjusted and scaled down to a level that does not result in the non-compliance of the Public Float Requirement.

As a result, the total number of shares held by Ms. Liu Beibei, Ms. Fu Xiaoqin, Mr. Ding Zhigang, Mr. Yu Lu, and Mr. Tsang Wah Tak Brian will be reduced to the number of shares as presented in Scenario 3 above. The Company is committed to maintaining compliance with the Public Float Requirement at all times.


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  1. In the extreme case as illustrated in Scenario 4 above, assuming that (a) none of the Qualifying Shareholders take up their respective entitlements of the Rights Shares; (b) the Placing Agent successfully places all the Unsubscribed Rights Shares to a single placee under the Placing; and (c) there is no change to the total issued share capital of the Company on or before the Record Date, upon Completion, only 26,087,881 Shares will be held by public Shareholders, representing approximately 8.50% of the total issued Shares as enlarged by the allotment of the Rights Shares, which falls below the minimum public float requirement under Rule 8.08(1). In such case, placing agent will determine to allocate such number of Unsubscribed Rights Shares to the single placee in order to ensure the compliance with the Public Float Requirements.

In other situation, when there is more than one placee, depending on placees' subscription situation, if the Public Float Requirements may not be met, the restriction that placees shall not be substantial shareholders may apply.

Upon receipt of subscription applications from placees under the Placing, the placing agent shall be obliged to thoroughly review such applications to ensure that the Public Float Requirements are complied.

  1. Pursuant to the Placing Agreement, depending on placees' subscription situations, placees may not be substantial shareholders in order to ensure that the Public Float Requirements are complied. The Unsubscribed Rights Shares are expected to be placed to placees, who are third party independent of, not acting in concert (within the meaning of the Takeovers Code) with and not connected with any directors or substantial shareholders of the Company or its subsidiaries or any of their respective associates; and none of the placees shall be obliged to make a mandatory general offer to the other Shareholders under the Takeovers Code.

  2. Mr. Ning Jun holds 20,280,000 Shares, representing 7.93% of the issued Shares of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date, thus is not a Substantial Shareholder and not a core connected person of the Company. In addition, Ning Jun does not fall within any of the categories specified under Rule 8.24 of the Listing Rules and is therefore regarded as a public Shareholder.

7. LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

As the Rights Issue will increase the total issued share capital of the Company by more than 50% within the 12 months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date, the Rights Issue is conditional on minority Shareholders' approval at the EGM under the requirements of Rule 7.19A of the Listing Rules.

Pursuant to Rule 7.27A(1) of the Listing Rules, where Shareholders' approval is required for a rights issue under rule 7.19A, the Rights Issue must be made conditional on approval by the Shareholders in general meeting by a resolution on which any controlling shareholders and their associates or, where there are no controlling shareholders, Directors (excluding independent non-executive Directors) and the chief executive of the Company and their respective associates shall from voting in favour of the Rights Issue.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, the Company does not have any controlling shareholder as defined under the Listing Rules. However, each of Mr. Tsang Wah Tak, Brian (executive Director), Mr. Yu Lu, and Mr. Ding Zhigang (both non-executive Directors) holds a beneficial interest in 1,315,000 Shares, 17,252,250 Shares, and 19,670,092 Shares, respectively. As part of the intended use of the Net Proceeds, a portion of the Net Proceeds will be used to partially settle the Group's outstanding borrowings. Mr. Ning Jun, a public Shareholder who does not fall within any of the categories under Rule 8.24 of the Listing Rules, has been identified as one of the Group's creditors whose debt is to be repaid by the Company. To avoid any conflict of interest, Mr. Ning Jun, together with Mr. Tsang Wah Tak, Brian, Mr. Yu Lu, and Mr. Ding Zhi Gang, will be required to abstain from voting in favour of the proposed resolutions to approve the Rights Issue and the transaction contemplated thereunder at the EGM. Save as the above disclosure, no Shareholders and Directors are required to abstain from voting in favour of the proposed resolution approving the Rights Issue and the transaction contemplated thereunder at the EGM.

WARNING OF THE RISK OF DEALINGS IN THE SHARES AND RIGHTS SHARES IN NIL-PAID FORM

The Rights Issue is subject to the fulfilment of conditions including, among other things, the Stock Exchange granting the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Rights Shares in their nil-paid and fully-paid forms. Please refer to the section headed "Conditions of the Rights Issue" in this circular.

Shareholders and potential investors of the Company should note that if the conditions of the Rights Issue are not satisfied, the Rights Issue will not proceed.

Qualifying Shareholders who do not take up their assured entitlements in full and Non-Qualifying Shareholders, if any, should note that their shareholding in the Company may be diluted, the extent of which will depend in part on the size of the Rights Issue.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Audited consolidated results for the two years ended 31 December 2024

As disclosed in the 2024 Annual Report, revenue of the Group increased by approximately 28.91% from approximately RMB94.87 million for FY2023 to approximately RMB122.30 million for FY2024. Such an increase was derived from a revenue growth of approximately 58.43% from the new automated meter reading (AMR) new product trading with other business segments, along with a contribution of around 20.76% from the newly provided wind farm operation and maintenance (WFOM) service to new region. Gross profit increased by approximately 138.27% to approximately RMB37.09 million for FY2024 from approximately RMB15.57 million for FY2023 which was still mainly attributable from the growth in AMR and WFOM segments. New products and new services require establishing sales channels for distributing circuits and modules and further marketing expenses that led to an increase in selling and marketing expenses of approximately 69.80%. The gross margin has increased from 16.41% to 30.33% which signifies there is an improvement in sales and better control in expenses. As a result of the improvement in revenue and gross profit margin, the loss for the Group decreased approximately 48.80%, from approximately RMB143.65 million for FY2023 to approximately RMB73.54 million for FY2024.

The total assets of the Group amounted to approximately RMB236.57 million FY2024, representing a decrease of approximately 5.56%, as compared to RMB250.49 million for FY2023. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in bank and cash equivalents of approximately RMB20.74 million. The total liabilities of the Group amounted to approximately RMB347.92 million for FY2024, representing an increase of approximately 22.07%, as compared to RMB285.02 million for FY2023. The increase was primarily due to the increase in borrowings of approximately RMB61.85 million. The net liabilities of the Company amounted to approximately RMB111.35 million FY2024, representing an increase of approximately RMB76.81 million or approximately 222.43%, as compared to RMB34.53 million for FY2023. Such an increase was mainly attributable to the total amounts of other borrowings during the year ended 31 December 2024.

2. Reasons for and benefits of the Rights Issue and use of proceeds

As disclosed in the Letter from the Board, the net proceeds from the Rights Issue are estimated to be up to approximately HK$125.73 million after the deduction of all estimated expenses (assuming full acceptance of the Rights Issue and assuming that no new Shares will be allotted or issued on or before the Record Date).

The Company intend to apply the net proceeds as follows:

(i) approximately HK$100.58 million, which represents approximately 80% of the Net Proceeds, for repayment of the Group's current liabilities, specifically those debts, liabilities, or other payables that are expected to be due and payable within twelve months upon Completion; and

(ii) approximately HK$25.15 million, which represents approximately 20% of the Net Proceeds, for the Group's general corporate and administration working capital purposes, which primarily includes (a) staff salaries expenses of


LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

approximately HK$22.90 million; (b) rental expenses of approximately HK$0.56 million; and (c) business development expenses of approximately HK$0.43 million, all supporting the Group's ongoing business activities.

In the event that there is an under subscription of the Right Issue and Placing, the net proceeds of the Rights Issue and Placing will be allocated and utilised in accordance with the same proportion to the above basis.

As stated in the section headed "1. Background information of the Group" above, despite the increase in revenue and gross profit over the years, the Group has recorded consecutive losses attributable to the Shareholders during the two years ended 31 December 2023 and 2024. The losses are primarily attributable to the increase in selling and marketing expenses, the research and development expenses, as well as the impairment losses on prepayment and the loss on early termination of leases.

In the event that the proceeds raised by the Rights Issue or Placing is less than the aforesaid estimated net proceeds of approximately HK$125.73 million, the Company may further evaluate options including amongst others, reducing the proposed amount of repayment of loans and other payables, renewing and/or refinancing existing loans or exploring other financing, and/or fund-raising alternatives. The Group's is minded to improve its profitability and alleviate the repayment pressure by, among other things, lowering liabilities and finance costs.

Settlement of the Group's loans

For FY2024, the Group was in a highly leveraged financial position (i.e. Debt ratio = 147.07%), the Group had total outstanding bank and other borrowings, which the repayment will be due within the next twelve months from the Last Trading Day, amount to approximately RMB202.45 million as at 31 May 2025, including (i) bank loan of approximately RMB6.07 million, with effective interest rates ranging from 2.80% to 3.60% per annum. These bank loan, which include facilities from Bank of China and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, maturing from July 2024 to March 2026; and (ii) other borrowings (including amounts due to directors, shareholders, associate of the Company's connected person, and independent third parties) of approximately RMB196.38 million with effective interest rates ranging from 0% to 3.5% per annum. Most of these other borrowings are set to mature between August 2025 and March 2026, with RMB109.93 million in nearly 56.0% of the total owed to an independent third party and maturing in August 2025. Despite this significant debt load, the Group's cash and bank balances remain limited and was approximately RMB15.18 million as of FY2024 and was approximately RMB15.08 million as of 31 May 2025 from the unaudited consolidated financial statement, underscoring a leveraged financial position and raising concerns over the sufficiency of liquidity to meet short term obligations as they fall due. With the high effective interest rates on certain borrowings, the Group's exposure to refinancing and liquidity risks in the near term results in the need for fund raising to relieve its liquidity pressure and finance costs burden. Therefore, the Group intends to

  • 48 -

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

utilize the net proceeds to first repay the aforementioned bank loans, followed by the outstanding other borrowings, in alignment with their respective maturity dates, unless an extension is mutually agreed upon by the involved parties.

In addition, as stated in the 2024 Annual Report, taking into account that (i) the Group incurred a net loss of approximately RMB73.54 million for FY2024; (ii) the Group's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by approximately RMB181.0 million for FY2024; (iii) the reduction of interest payment after the settlement of the Group's borrowings; (iv) the balance of bank and cash equivalents for FY2024; and (v) the positive impact of increasing liquidity and reserving working capital brought by settlement of the Group's indebtedness. As such, we concur with the Directors that 80% of the net proceeds of approximately HK$100.58 million (i.e. RMB91.44 million, HK$1.10 = RMB1.00 on the Last Trading Day of Hong Kong Association of Bank: https://www.hkab.org.hk/en/rates/exchange-rates), can partially settle the outstanding borrowings without additional financial burden to the Group. In this regard, the Rights Issue could provide sufficient funds at no borrowing costs for the Group to satisfy its funding needs in redemption of its outstanding borrowings and the conduct of the Group's ordinary business.

Having considered that (i) the significant amount of total borrowing amount with interest for the Group as of 31 May 2025 (i.e. RMB202.45 million); (ii) the reduction of interest payment after the settlement of the Group's loan; (iii) the balance of bank and cash equivalents as at 31 December 2024 and as of 31 May 2025; and (iv) the positive impact of increasing liquidity and reserving working capital brought by settlement of the Group's indebtedness, we concur with the Directors that the settlement of the Group's loans equip the Group with a timely and robust funding position and is for the commercial benefit of the Group.

General Corporate and Administrative Working Capital Purposes

As discussed with the management of the Company, the Group has new demands from the market as (i) won certain major biddings for sales of its products to dew provinces in China; (ii) new testing technologies inventing in Smart Manufacturing & Industrial Automation ("SMIA") field; and (iii) new service providing in WFOM which led to the expenses rises. Therefore, the Company intends to apply approximately HK$25.15 million (i.e. RMB22.86 million, HK$1.10 = RMB1.00 on the Last Trading Day of Hong Kong Association of Bank: https://www.hkab.org.hk/en/rates/exchange-rates) for settling staff salaries, rental expenses and further exploring or upgrading the spectrum for the Company businesses in SMIA and WFOM to reach the new market demands.

Having considered the above, and (i) the positive businesses demanding from the market in the research, development, production and sales of power line communication products and the provision of SMIA and products; (ii) to support and facilitate the Group's daily operations and cover the Group's essential expenditures including staff salaries and employees benefits, rental expenses, legal and professional fees, registrar fees, office overheads and other general and administrative expenses; and (iii) the uncertainty in going concern of the Group's financial ability, we concur with the Directors

  • 49 -

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

that the Group's ongoing operations and managing cash flow is a very critical aspect during a period of uncertainty, and the Rights Issue provides a good opportunity for the Group to strengthen its capital structure without incurring debt financing cost, improve the financial position, and provide additional financial resources for the Group's daily operation. We are of the view that the intended use of proceeds is fair and reasonable.

Alternative financing methods

As disclosed in the Letter from the Board, apart from the Rights Issue, the Directors have considered other debt/equity fund raising alternatives such as bank borrowings, placing or an open offer. The Directors noted that bank borrowings will carry interest costs and may require the provision of security and creditors will rank before the Shareholders, and placings will dilute the interests of Shareholders without giving them the opportunity to take part in the exercise. As opposed to an open offer, the Rights Issue enables the Shareholders to sell the nil-paid rights in the market. The Rights Issue will give the Qualifying Shareholders the opportunity to maintain their respective pro-rata shareholding interests in the Company and to continue to participate in the future development of the Company.

Having considered the abovementioned alternatives, the Directors consider raising funds by way of the Rights Issue is more attractive in the current market condition and the Rights Issue will enable the Company to strengthen its working capital base and enhance its financial position, while at the same time, allowing the Qualifying Shareholders to maintain their proportional shareholdings in the Company.

Based on the above, the Board considers that raising capital through the Rights Issue is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. In addition, having considered the capital needs of the Group, the terms of the Rights Issue and the Subscription Price, the Board also considers that it is in the interests of the Company to proceed with the Rights Issue on a non-underwritten basis. However, those Qualifying Shareholders who do not take up the Rights Shares to which they are entitled and Non-Qualifying Shareholder(s), if any, should note that their shareholdings will be diluted.

After taking into account the benefits and potential cost of each of the alternatives such as bank borrowings, placing or an open offer, we are of the view and concur with the view of the Directors that (i) debt financing may not be achievable on favourable terms in a timely manner as the company has carried a large amount of debt financing while debt financing requires asset pledge or relatively higher interest rate which will result in additional interest burden, higher gearing ratio of the Group; (ii) placing of new Shares would only be available to certain places who are not necessarily the existing Shareholders and would dilute the shareholding of the existing Shareholders; and (iii) open offer does not allow qualifying shareholders to trade rights entitlements freely in the open market. We are of the view and concur with the view of the Directors that the Rights Issue is more cost effective, efficient and beneficial to the Company and the Shareholders as a whole as compared to raising fund by other means.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Assessment on the principal terms of the Rights Issue

The Subscription Price

The Subscription Price of HK$0.5 per Rights Share is payable in full by a Qualifying Shareholder upon acceptance of the relevant provisional allotment of the Rights Shares and, where applicable, when a transferee of the nil-paid Rights Shares subscribes for the Rights Shares.

The Subscription Price represents:

(i) a discount of approximately 37.11% to the theoretical closing price of HK$0.795 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date;

(ii) a discount of approximately 22.48% to the theoretical closing price of HK$0.645 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Trading Day;

(iii) a discount of approximately 20.63% to the average theoretical closing price of approximately HK$0.63 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five (5) consecutive trading days prior to the Last Trading Day;

(iv) a discount of approximately 22.12% to the average theoretical closing price of approximately HK$0.642 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the late ten (10) consecutive trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day;

(v) a discount of approximately 4.62% to the theoretical ex-rights price of approximately HK$0.5242 per Consolidated Share as adjusted for the effect of the Rights Issue, based on the theoretical closing price of HK$0.645 per Consolidated Share (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Trading Day;

(vi) a theoretical dilution effect (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules) represented by a discount of approximately 18.73%, which is calculated based on the theoretical diluted price of approximately HK$0.5242 per Consolidated Share to the benchmarked price of approximately HK$0.645 per Consolidated Share (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules, taking account the higher of (i) the closing price of the Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Trading Day and (ii) the average of the theoretical closing prices of the Consolidated Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the five (5) previous consecutive trading days prior to the Last Trading Day); and

  • 52 -

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

(vii) a premium of approximately HK$2.82 over the audited net liability value per Consolidated Share of approximately HK$2.32 based on the latest audited consolidated net liabilities of the Group of approximately RMB111.35 million (equivalent to approximately HK$118.51 million) as at 31 December 2024 and the theoretical number of Consolidated Shares (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation) in issue as at the Last Trading Day (i.e. 255,728,860 Shares / 5 = 51,145,772 Consolidated Shares).

As disclosed in the Letter from the Board, the Subscription Price was arrived at after arm's length negotiation with reference to, among other things, the prevailing market price of the Shares and the financial conditions of the Group.

Comparison with historical closing prices of the Shares

In order to assess the fairness and reasonableness of the Subscription Price, we have performed a review on the daily closing prices and trading volume of the Shares from 17 June 2024 up to and including the Last Trading Day (the "Review Period") (being a period of approximately 12 months prior to and including the Last Trading Day) and compared with the Subscription Price. We consider that the Review Period is adequate to illustrate the recent price movement of the Shares for conducting a reasonable comparison among the historical closing prices prior to the Announcement and such comparison is relevant for the assessment of the fairness and reasonableness of the Subscription Price, as the share price before the Announcement represent a fair market value of the Company the Shareholders expected, while that after the Announcement, the value may have taken into account the potential upside of the Rights Issue which may distort the analysis. The chart below illustrates the adjusted daily closing price per the Share versus the Subscription Price of HK$0.5 per Rights Share during the Review Period as we have adjusted the Share price for the Review Period to reflect the impact of the Share Consolidation (the "Theoretical Closing Price"):

img-1.jpeg

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

As shown in the chart above, during the Review Period, the average closing price was approximately HK$0.219 per Share (or the Theoretical Closing Price of HK$1.096, the “Average Theoretical Closing Price”). The daily closing price ranged from HK$0.096 per Share (or the Theoretical Closing Price of HK$0.48, the “Lowest Theoretical Closing Price”) recorded from 7 May 2025 to 9 May 2025 to HK$0.48 per Share (or the Theoretical Closing Price of HK$2.40, the “Highest Theoretical Closing Price”) recorded on 25 June 2024. We note that Shares were mostly traded above the Subscription Price in the whole Review Period, except for the Lowest Closing Price period. The Subscription Price of HK$0.5 represents (i) a premium of approximately 4.17% to the Lowest Theoretical Closing Price; (ii) a discount of approximately 79.17% to the Highest Theoretical Closing Price; and (iii) a discount of approximately 54.37% to the Average Theoretical Closing Price. As discussed in the section headed “Comparison with recent rights issues transactions” below, we note that it is a common practice (9 out of 12 Comparables) to set the subscription price at a discount to the prevailing trading prices of the relevant shares in order to increase the attractiveness and encourage shareholders to participate in the right issues.

There was a downtrend from 25 June 2024. The closing price of the Shares slightly rose from approximately HK$0.425 on 17 June 2024 to the highest closing price of HK$0.48 per Share on 25 June 2024. After reaching the highest closing price, the closing price of the Shares then gradually decreased and hit the lowest closing price of HK$0.096 per Share from 7 May 2025 to 9 May 2025. The closing price rose slightly again to the closing price of HK$0.175 per Share on 27 May 2025 with small fluctuations till the closing price of HK$0.129 per Share on the Last Trading Day.

The reason for the substantial fall in Share price since 25 June 2024 (“Downtrend Period”) was unknown to us since:

(i) the management of the Company was not aware of any reason for such fall in Share price during the Downtrend Period; and

(ii) we have reviewed all the announcements disclosed during the Downtrend Period, and we were not aware of any information which led to abrupt decrease of the Share prices during the Downtrend Period.

In light of the low trading volume, the Shareholders may encounter challenges in selling their Shares promptly at a more favourable price. Furthermore, the Company may face difficulties raising equity funds from third parties without offering a substantial discount to the prevailing Share price. Given the low trading liquidity and the observed Downward Trend in the closing price of the Shares during the Review Period, we believe that the determination of the Subscription Price is deemed fair and reasonable, thereby encouraging the Qualifying Shareholders to participate in the Rights Issue and to engage in the future development of the Company.

Note:
1. Based on the number of total issued Shares as at each month end as disclosed in the monthly returns of the Company.

As shown in the table above, the average daily trading volume of the Shares in each month ranged from 2,868 Shares in January 2025 (from 17 June 2024) to 395,607 Shares in March 2025 (up to Last Trading Day) during the Review Period, representing 0.0011% to approximately 0.1547% of the total number of issued shares as at the end of the month/period, respectively. Given such relatively thin liquidity of the Shares during the Review


LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Period, it would be difficult for the Shareholders to acquire a substantial block of the Shares in the open market without exerting a significant impact on the Share price. We consider that the prices, liquidity and general price trend of the Shares during the Review Period should have reflected market evaluation on the recent business performance of the Group.

In view of the above, we consider that it is fair and reasonable for the Company to determine the Subscription Price with reference to (i) the observed downtrend of the market price of the Shares prior to and including the Last Trading Day; (ii) the prevailing volatile market conditions under the uncertainty in local and global economy and the fund-raising size intended by the Company discussed in the earlier section headed "Reasons for and benefits of the Rights Issue and use of proceeds"; and (iii) low trading liquidity of the Shares during the Review Period.

Comparison with recent rights issue transactions

In order to assess the fairness and reasonableness of the Subscription Price, we exhaustively conducted a search of recent proposed rights issue exercises, announced by the companies listed on the Stock Exchange (excluding those terminated or lapsed or announced but not yet completed) within approximately 6 months prior to the Last Trading Day (the "Comparison Period") to understand the trend of the recent market practice. Based on our research, we have identified a total of 12 rights issue comparables (the "Comparables") during the Comparison Period.

We consider the Comparison Period of approximately 6 months is adequate and appropriate given that (i) such period would provide us with the recent and relevant information to demonstrate the prevailing market practice prior to the Announcement under the prevailing market conditions; and (ii) we are able to identify sufficient and reasonable samples size for selection of Comparables within the Comparison Period. We note that the terms of the rights issue announced by the Comparables may not be directly comparable to the terms of the Rights Issue announced by the Group due to the differences in business activities and performances. We consider that despite the terms of the Rights Issue depend on various factors, including (i) the dilution effect to shareholding; (ii) less than HK$500 million having considered the estimated size of gross proceeds from the Rights Issue; (iii) discounts to share price, etc., they are often influenced by the recent market trends for rights issue. Although the Comparables included rights issue on different basis of entitlement, and involved issuers which engaged in different business or with different financial performance and funding needs from the Company, we consider that the Comparables are suitable to serve as a general, true and fair view of the recent market trends for similar transactions conducted by other Hong Kong listed issuers for the purpose of an assessment on the Subscription Price, as (i) all of the Comparables and the Company are listed on the Stock Exchange; (ii) our analysis is mainly concerned with the comparison of subscription price to closing price, theoretical ex-rights price, the consolidated net asset value per share and theoretical dilution effect; (iii) the exclusion of rights issue transactions of A-Shares and H-Shares; (iv) the exclusion of rights issue transactions without extraordinary general meeting; (v) the Comparables were included without any artificial selection or filtering on our part thus

  • 56 -

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

they represented a general, true and fair view of the recent market trends for rights issue; (vi) all of the Comparables had either been completed or remained in progress as at the Latest Practicable Date, and none had been terminated, we consider that the Comparables are fair and representative samples.

Based on the above, we are of the view that our comparable analysis based on the above criteria is meaningful for us to form our view regarding the fairness and reasonableness of the Subscription Price. To the best of our knowledge and as far as we are aware of, the Comparables represent an exhaustive list of all relevant companies fitting our search criterion mentioned above, and we consider that such Comparables can provide a reference on the recent rights issues given the sufficient number of transactions in such period resulting in a reasonable sample size.

It should be noted that all the subject companies constituting the Comparables may have different principal activities, market capitalisation, profitability and financial position as compared with those of the Company, and the circumstances leading to the subject companies to proceed with the rights issues may also be different from that of the Company.

Notes:

  1. In order to calculate the average, minimum and maximum percentage of the placing commission of the Comparables, we have excluded the minimum placing commissions and absolute placing commissions.
  2. “N/A” denotes that the announcement did not disclose such information.
  3. The theoretical dilution effect is calculated in accordance with Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules or Rule 10.44A of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on GEM of the Stock Exchange.
  4. The comparison to net asset value is not applicable due to the Company was at net liabilities position according to its 2024 Annual Report.
  5. N/A represents the respective fundraising exercise did not involve underwriters nor placing agents.

Based on the Table A, we noted that:

(i) the subscription prices to the closing price on the last trading days prior to the announcements of the Comparables ranged from a discount of approximately 40.71% to a premium of approximately 47.06% (the “Comparable LTD Range”), with an average and median of discounts of approximately 12.76% and 18.95% respectively. The discount of approximately 22.48% of the Company’s Subscription Price of HK$0.5 per Rights Share to the closing price of HK$0.645 per Consolidation Share on the Last Trading Day, which is within the Comparable LTD Range, larger than the average and the median discount of Comparable LTD Range;

(ii) the theoretical ex-rights price per share based on the closing price per share on the last trading day prior to the announcements of the Comparables in relation to the respective ranged from a discount of approximately 22.14% to a premium of approximately 8.70% (the “Comparable TERP Range”), with an average and median of discounts of approximately 7.01% and 6.49% respectively. The discount of the Subscription Price to the theoretical ex-rights price of HK$0.5242 per Consolidation Share on the Last Trading Day of approximately 4.62% is within the Comparable TERP Range and with a lower discount than the average of Comparable TERP Range and the median of Comparable TERP Range; and

(iii) the theoretical dilution effect of the Comparables ranged from a discount of approximately 24.93% to a premium of approximately 0.20% (the “Comparable Dilution Range”), with an average and median dilution effects of approximately 14.09% and 18.22%, respectively. The theoretical dilution effect of the Rights Issue of approximately 18.73% to the existing Shareholders if they elect not to participate in the Rights Issue is within the Comparable Dilution Range, slightly higher than the average and median dilution effects of the Comparables. As the theoretical dilution effect of the Rights Issue is below 25%, it is in compliance with Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules. Although the theoretical dilution effect of approximately 18.73% representing a relatively

  • 58 -

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

high dilution as comparing with the average and median dilution effects, the Rights Issue is achieving the necessary fund raising requirements while setting the Subscription Price that encourages Shareholders to participate. The Rights Issue demonstrates the capacity of the Group in raising new capital, strengthen its financial position and enhancing its financial performance by reducing debt levels and financing costs. Considering that (a) the theoretical dilution effect represented at the discount of approximately 18.73% by the Rights Issue; (b) the net proceeds from the Rights Issue would improve the Group's financial condition; and (c) the Subscription Price favors the Qualifying Shareholders to subscribe for the Rights Shares and maintain their respective pro-rata shareholding interests in the Company, we consider that although the theoretical dilution effect is slightly higher than the average and median of dilution effect, it is within the Comparable Dilution Range which represented by the Rights Issue is acceptable so far as Independent Shareholders are concerned.

Taking into consideration that, (i) the Subscription Price of the Rights Issue has a discount of 54.37% to the Average Theoretical Closing Price during the Review Period; (ii) the trading liquidity of the Shares were very thin during the Review Period and the Subscription Price at a discount to the Average Theoretical Closing Price may enhance the attractiveness of the Shares among the thin trading liquidity; (iii) a review period of 6 months prior to the Announcement to be exhaustive for a representation of proposed rights issue in the recent market; and (iv) the Independent Shareholders may subscribe the Rights Share with the Subscription Price close to the price of HK$0.795 per Consolidated Share on the Latest Practicable Date under the thin trading liquidity, we are of the view that the setting of the Subscription Price is fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and the Independent Shareholders are advised to subscribe for the entitlements.

Absence of excess application arrangement

As mentioned in the Letter from the Board, Qualifying Shareholders will not be entitled to subscribe for any Rights Shares in excess of their respective entitlements. Based on our analysis on the Comparables, we noted that 10 out of 12 Comparables, did not offer excess application as part of the rights issue. On this basis, we considered the absence of excess application to be not uncommon market practice. Furthermore, the Rights Issue will give the Qualifying Shareholders an equal and fair opportunity to maintain their respective pro rata shareholding interests in the Company, for Qualifying Shareholders who accept their respective entitlements under the Rights Issue in full, they would be able to maintain their respective existing shareholdings in the Company after completion of the Rights Issue. As such, we considered that the absence of excess application arrangement is acceptable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Placing commission

As set out in the Letter from the Board, the terms of the Placing Agreement, including the rate of placing commission, were determined after arm's length negotiation between the Company and the Placing Agent with reference to the market comparables, the existing financial position of the Group, the size of the Rights Issue, and the current and expected market condition. For further details of the principal terms of the Placing Agreement, please refer to section headed "The Placing Agreement" in the Letter from the Board. The Placing Agent to the Company will receive a 0.5% of the amount, which is equal to the placing price multiplied by the number of Placing Shares that have been successfully placed by the Placing Agent and/or its sub-placing agent(s) pursuant to the terms of the Placing Agreement. According to the Comparables as set out in Table A, the placing commission of the Comparables ranged from 1.00% to 5.00%, with the average and median of 2.17% and 1.75%, respectively. As the placing commission is out of the range of the Comparables, we consider that although the placing commission of 0.5% borne by the Company in the Rights Issue is slightly below the market practice range, considering the placing commission is lower than the market practice means it leads to a higher net proceeds for the Company. Based on the above, we are of the view that the placing commission is in the interests of the Company and Independent Shareholders as a whole.

4. Dilution effect of the Rights Issue on the shareholding of the Company

All the Qualifying Shareholders are entitled to subscribe for the Rights Shares. For those Qualifying Shareholders who take up their full provisional allotments under the Rights Issue, their shareholding interests in the Company will remain unchanged after the Rights Issue. Referring to the section headed "6. EFFECT OF THE SHAREHOLDING STRUCTURE OF THE COMPANY" in the Letter from the Board, all Qualifying Shareholders are entitled to subscribe for the Rights Shares. Qualifying Shareholders who do not accept the Rights Issue are able to sell their nil-paid rights to subscribe for the Rights Shares in the market. Where all Qualifying Shareholders do not accept the Rights Issue and thus the Placing Agents subscribe for the Unsubscribed Rights Shares pursuant to the Placing Agreement, the maximum dilution effect on the Qualifying Shareholders' shareholding interests will be 16.67% (after taking into account the effect of the Share Consolidation). It should be noted that the actual changes in the shareholding structure of the Company upon completion of the Rights Issue are subject to various factors, including but not limited to the results of acceptance of the Rights Issue.

In all cases of rights issue, the dilution on the shareholding of those qualifying shareholders who do not take up in full their provisional allotments under the rights issue is inevitable. In fact, the dilution magnitude of any rights issue depends mainly on the extent of the basis of entitlement under such exercise since the higher offering ratio of new shares to existing shares is, the greater the dilution on the shareholding would be.

Having considered that (i) the dilution effect is not prejudicial as all Qualifying Shareholders are offered an equal opportunity to participate in the Rights Issue and public Shareholders' interests in the Company will be not diluted if they elect to exercise their


LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

full provisional allotments under the Rights Issue; (ii) shareholding dilution is inherent in rights issue in general; (iii) the imminent need of financial resources for the Company; and (iv) the positive impact on the financial position of the Group as a result of the Rights Issue as detailed in paragraph headed "Possible Financial Effect of the Rights Issue" below, we are of the view that the potential dilution effect on the shareholding, which may only happen to the Qualifying Shareholders who decide not to subscribe for their pro-rata Rights Shares, is justifiable.

5. Possible Financial Effect of the Rights Issue

Net tangible assets value

According to the "Unaudited pro forma financial information of the Group" set out in Appendix II to the Circular, based on (i) the audited consolidated negative net tangible assets value of the Group attributable to the equity holder of the Company of approximately RMB111.34 million; and (ii) the 255,728,860 Rights Shares in issue as at the Last Practicable Date (representing 51,145,772 Consolidated Shares as at Latest Practicable Date and the effective date of the Share Consolidation), the audited consolidated negative net tangible assets value per Share attributable to the Shareholders amounted to approximately RMB4.39 per Consolidated Share.

On the assumptions that completion of the Rights Issues had taken place on 31 December 2024, the Share Consolidation had become effective and 255,728,860 Rights Shares had been issued, immediately upon Completion of the Rights Issue, (i) the unaudited pro forma adjusted consolidated negative net tangible assets of the Group attributable to the equity holders of the Company would become approximately RMB108.0 million; and (ii) the number of Shares in issue would become 51,145,772 Consolidated Shares, resulting in the unaudited pro forma adjusted consolidated negative net tangible assets value per Consolidated Share attributable to the Shareholders of approximately RMB0.35.

Despite a reduction of approximately $92.0\%$ in the consolidated negative net tangible assets value per share upon Completion, we have carefully considered (i) the reasons for the Rights Issue as outlined in the section titled "2. Reasons for and benefits of the Rights Issue and use of proceeds" in this letter, and (ii) the rights of the Qualifying Shareholders to take up their respective entitlements. This allows them to maintain their shareholdings in the Company and participate in the Group's potential growth. In our view, the overall impact on the consolidated negative net tangible assets value per share is fair and reasonable, and it serves the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

Liquidity

According to the 2024 Annual Report, as at 31 December 2024, the bank and cash equivalents of the Group was approximately RMB15.18 million and the Group had current assets of approximately RMB108.13 million, current liabilities of approximately RMB289.13 million. Accordingly, the current ratio of the Group (being the current assets of the Group divided by the current liabilities of the Group)


LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

as at 31 December 2024 was approximately 0.37 times. Immediately upon completion of the Rights Issue, the bank and cash equivalents of the Group is expected to increase by the expected net proceeds from the Rights Issue of approximately HK$125.73 million. The current ratio of the Group will be increased from approximately 0.37 times to approximately 0.81 times. As such, the current ratio and the liquidity of the Group will be improved upon the completion of the Rights Issue.

After taking into consideration of the above, particularly, the improvement in liquidity position of the Group, we are of the view that the Rights Issue is in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Shareholders should note that the aforesaid analyses are for illustrative purpose only and do not purport to represent the financial position of the Group upon completion of the Rights Issue and because of its hypothetical nature, does not provide any assurance or indication that any event will take place in the future and may not be indicative of (i) the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2024 or any future date; or (ii) the net assets/liabilities per Share of the Company as at 31 December 2024 or any future date.

OPINION AND RECOMMENDATION

Having taken into consideration of the following principal factors and reasons regarding the major terms of the Rights Issue including:

(i) the proceeds from the Rights Issue for repayments of the Group’s loans and other payables, and the Directors expectation to strengthen its general working capital structure without incurring debt financing cost and improve the financial position, under section headed “2. Reasons for and benefits of the Rights Issue and use of proceeds” above in this letter;

(ii) taking into account the benefits and cost of each of the alternatives, the Rights Issue represents a more cost effective, efficient and beneficial mean to the Company and the Shareholders as a whole as compared to raising fund by other means as stated under the paragraph headed “Alternative financing methods” above in this letter;

(iii) the Subscription Price represents a discount of approximately 22.48% and 20.63% to the theoretical closing price on the Last Trading Day, and the five (5) consecutive trading days prior to the Last Trading Day, respectively;

(iv) the Subscription Price is fair and reasonable in our view for the reasons set out in earlier sections headed “Subscription Price” and “Comparison with recent rights issue transactions” in this letter; and

  • 62 -

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

(v) Rights Issue is conducted on the basis that all Qualifying Shareholders have been offered the same opportunity to maintain their proportionate interests in the Company and allows the Qualifying Shareholders to participate in the future growth of the Company, and the maximum dilution effect only occur when the Qualifying Shareholders do not subscribe for their proportionate Rights Shares,

we are of the view that the terms of the Rights Issue are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and the Rights Issue including the transactions contemplated thereunder are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, we recommend the Independent Shareholders and the Independent Board Committee to advise the Independent Shareholders to vote in favour of the resolution to be proposed at the EGM to approve the Rights Issue.

Yours faithfully

E. FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS OF THE GROUP

As reform of electric power system takes place, along with the construction of a new electric power system basing on new energy, it becomes necessary to increase investment in the entire chain of electric energy from electricity production to transmission and consumption. From power grid side, to ensure reliable power supply and safe operation, it is necessary to significantly improve the power system's peak shaving, frequency regulation and voltage regulation capabilities, and to configure relevant technical equipment. Against the background of the dual-carbon policy and the construction of a new electric power system basing on new energy, the development of the power Internet of Things is expected to accelerate. With the emergence of a large number of distributed wind and solar power generators, electric vehicle charging piles, energy storage equipment and other two-way loads, the local quantitative IoT operating environment is becoming increasingly complex. As network scale increases and requirement for realtime transmission increases, there also puts forward a higher requirement on equipment communication speed, delay and reliability. In order to meet the needs of new power systems, State Grid has been accelerating the formulation of new technology standards. The new generation of smart meters will continue to be promoted, the older generation will continue to be updated, and the construction of new power systems will lead to the replacement of more energy meters. The number of smart meter tenders is expected to maintain a steady growth momentum in the future, which will in turn drive the growth in demand for PLC modules.

With the further advancement of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality strategies, the development of renewable energy such as photovoltaic and wind power will accelerate. Energy transformation requires the reshaping of the power grid, and the distribution network also needs to be transformed and upgraded.

Distribution network will become a key part of power grid construction in the "14th Five-Year Plan". State Grid issued the "Action Plan for Building a New Power System with New Energy as the Main Body (2021-2030)" *(構建以新能源為主體的新型電力系統行動方案(2021-2030年)) and proposed investment in distribution network construction will exceed RMB1.2 trillion, accounting for more than 60% of the total investment in power grid construction.

development plan, proposing a planned investment of approximately RMB670 billion yuan in power grid construction to accelerate the construction of digital power grids and the modernization of the power grid. Among them, the planned investment in distribution network construction reached RMB320 billion, accounting for 48% of the total. Historically, the investments of State Grid and China Southern Power Grid have mainly been concentrated in power transmission and transformation. The proportion of investment on the distribution network is expected to increase significantly in the future.

In 2025, State Grid and China Southern Power Grid will still be committed to the application of broadband dual-mode technology in power information collection systems and terminal products such as low-voltage distribution networks and measurement switches. The Group is promoting its broadband dual-mode products (including chips and modules) to more network provincial markets to further expand the competitiveness of the Group's broadband dual-mode products in the domestic market. The Group will focus on the broadband dual-mode communication market, keeping its technologies updated, and actively participating in the development and marketing of broadband dual-mode products by State Grid, China Southern Power Grid and other provincial network companies. At the same time, founding on the research and development of its broadband or broadband dual-mode communication technology, the Group is actively promoting itself in more application markets including power grid low-voltage distribution network, measurement switch, and power Internet of Things market.

The application of the Group's broadband and broadband dual-mode communication chips and communication modules will be set around smart power distribution, smart power consumption, smart microgrids and comprehensive power application requirement, and will also cover collection and application of power consumption information, photovoltaic or energy storage, industrial enterprises and parks and other energy management fields. The Group adopts broadband or broadband dual-mode integrated communication solutions, combined with edge computing technology, to develop a series of intelligent products adapted to the energy internet, and provides a variety of intelligent energy internet solutions for integrated energy and smart grids.

In addition, the Group is expanding its market in smart city lighting, smart air conditioning and integrated energy management systems and terminal products. With the national government's promotion of smart grid and smart city construction, support for energy conservation and emission reduction, promotion of new energy, and the expanding overseas smart meter market under the development of the "Belt and Road Initiative", the market for PLC technology is expected to maintain a good development trend in the next few years, which is expected to promote the sales of various products of the Group, especially in the field of maintenance and safety integrity systems in the petroleum and petrochemical industries which continue to expand its market scope, bringing more opportunities to the Group.

For the Group's smart manufacturing & industrial automation business, the Group believes that the growth of China industrial automation market would continue to be healthy given its current relatively low penetration rate and the rising cost of labour. As petrochemical enterprises are the pioneers of the manufacturing sector in China, major market participants have started to build smart oil fields, smart pipelines and smart factories.


APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The Group will continue to capture opportunities in the design and implementation of industrial automation systems, particularly in the area of maintenance and safety integrity system for the petroleum and petrochemicals industry, other manufacturing and construction businesses by leveraging the Group's own technologies and intellectual property rights.

For the Group's wind farm operation and maintenance business, the domestic wind power industry has been developing on a large scale for nearly a decade. With the passage of time, wind turbines wear out, and the maintenance of wind turbines has become the key to ensuring the proper functioning of wind farms. The industry believes that with the gradual reduction of high-quality wind power resource areas and new installed capacity in PRC, wind farm operation and maintenance services will provide huge potential for wind power equipment manufacturers to expand their business in the fiercely competitive new installed capacity market. The key points are as follows:

  1. Wind turbines are out of warranty, and demand for operation and maintenance services market is released

Over the past fifteen years, PRC has gradually formed the world's largest wind power market. The rapid growth of wind power installed capacity has led to a significant increase in equipment maintenance. Domestic wind turbines had a two-year warranty before 2010 and a three-to-five year warranty thereafter. During the period from 2006 to 2010, with the rapid development of the domestic wind power industry, a large number of wind turbines were put into operation. Most of the wind turbines of this period are now in post-warranty stage. With the end of the warranty period, a huge wind farm operation and maintenance services market is gradually emerging. According to a research report by Bloomberg New Energy Finance on PRC's wind farm operation and maintenance services market, the total expenditure of wind farm operation and maintenance services in PRC reached US$16 billion during the period between 2015 and 2022.

  1. The market potential has been greatly increased due to replacement of old turbines

As high-quality wind resources are becoming increasingly scarce, in order to efficiently utilize those territories with high-quality wind resources, it will become inevitable to replace old wind turbines with new ones. In addition, as the service life of those wind turbines approaches their 20-year limit, there will be a large number of retired wind turbines in PRC. This means that there are new growth points in the highly competitive market for new installed capacity.

The warranty period of the Group's operation and maintenance contracts will expire in 2026-2029. The management team is also vigorously expanding new wind farm operation and maintenance services projects, including but not limited to business such maintenance services, trade in business, and other businesses.
