FORMATION OF A JOINT VENTURE
On May 10, 2026 (Hong Kong and Calgary, Alberta), the Board is pleased to announce that Sangxiang Petrochemical (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. ("Sangxiang Petrochemical"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Mr. Chen Jiongliang ("Mr. Chen"), an independent third party, has established a joint venture company in Shenzhen named Shenzhen Zhongwang Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (the "Joint Venture").
To the best of the Board's knowledge, information, and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, Mr. Chen is an independent third party.
The business scope of the Joint Venture includes, among others, the sale of smart heat pumps, as well as the investment and operation of distributed geothermal energy projects as well as energy-saving projects in the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions of China.
CAPITAL CONTRIBUTION
The registered capital of the Joint Venture is RMB 10,000,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$10,985,389), 75% and 25% from Sangxiang Petrochemical and Mr. Chen respectively. Consequently, the Joint Venture will become a subsidiary of the Company, and its financial results will be consolidated into the Company's consolidated financial statements.
INFORMATION OF MR. CHEN
Mr. Chen is a Chinese citizen and businessman. He is the founder of Zhizhi (Wuhan) Private Equity Fund Management Co., Ltd, where he previously served as the head of compliance and risk control as well as the supervisor in charge. Mr. Chen possesses extensive experience in securities investment fund management, as well as professional investment management capabilities.
REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF FORMING THE JOINT VENTURE
The primary objective of establishing the Joint Venture is to expedite the diversification of the Company's business portfolio. Particularly while the Company's Canadian project is undergoing repair and maintenance work, the new business line is expected to increase the Company's revenue and cash flow.
The purpose of partnering with Mr. Chen in establishing the joint venture company is to broaden the sources of financing for the Joint Venture Company by leveraging on Mr. Chen's advantages in capital markets and financing channels, and to accelerate the implementation and advancement of distributed geothermal and energy-saving projects.
