INTRODUCTION
Reference is made to the Announcement in relation to, among other things, the Placing Agreement (including the Specific Mandate required for the Placing), the Underwriting Agreement, and the respective transactions contemplated thereunder.
The purpose of this circular is to provide you with, among other things, (i) further details of the Placing Agreement (including the Specific Mandate required for the Placing), the Underwriting Agreement and the respective transactions contemplated thereunder; (ii) a letter of recommendation from the Independent Board Committee to the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Underwriting Arrangement; (iii) a letter of advice from the Independent Financial Adviser to the Independent Board Committee and
LETTER FROM THE BOARD

PLACING OF NEW SHARES UNDER SPECIFIC MANDATE
On 17 April 2026 (after trading hours), the Company entered into the Placing Agreement with the Placing Agent, pursuant to which the Placing Agent has agreed, as agent of the Company, to procure on a “best efforts” basis not less than six (6) Placees who and whose ultimate beneficial owner(s) (if applicable) shall be Independent Third Parties to subscribe for up to 70,000,000 new Shares at the placing price of HK$1.50 per Placing Share. Details of the proposed Placing Agreement are set out below:
Terms of the Placing Agreement
Date : 17 April 2026 (after trading hours)
Parties : (1) The Company (as issuer); and
(2) Arta Asset Management Limited (as placing agent).
Placing Price : HK$1.50
Placing commission : The Placing Agent will receive a placing commission of 1.25% of the aggregate Placing Price of the Placing Shares that have been subscribed by the Placees provided that the placing commission in any event shall not be less than HK$1,250,000, and the Company shall bear the Placing Agent’s out-of-pocket expenses reasonably and properly incurred in connection with the Placing.
Placing Period : From Friday, 17 April 2026, being the date of the Placing Agreement to Tuesday, 28 July 2026, the third Business Day immediately before the Long Stop Date, both dates inclusive.
Placees : Not less than six (6) Placees, who and whose ultimate beneficial owners are independent of and not connected with, and are not acting in concert with, the Company, any of its connected persons or any of their respective associates.
- 6 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Number of Placing Shares : Up to 70,000,000 new Shares with an aggregate nominal value of HK$7,000,000.
Assuming that there is no change in the number of issued Shares between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of completion of the Placing, the maximum number of 70,000,000 Placing Shares represent approximately 18.94% of the issued shares of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date and approximately 15.92% of the issued shares of the Company as enlarged by the allotment and issue of all the Placing Shares.
Number of Shares in issue as at the date of the Latest Practicable Date : 369,685,228 Shares
Total number of Shares in issue upon completion of the Placing (assuming all the Placing Shares are fully placed) : 439,685,228 Shares
Gross proceeds from the Placing : HK$105 million
Net proceeds from the Placing (after deduction of all relevant expenses) : HK$103 million, representing a net price of approximately HK$1.47 per Placing Share.
Placing Price
The Placing Price of HK$1.50 represents:
(a) a discount of 21.05% over the closing price of HK$1.90 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on 17 April 2026, being the date of the Announcement;
(b) a discount of 33.63% over the average closing price of HK$2.26 per Share, being the average closing price of Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the 5 trading days immediately prior to the date of the Announcement;
- 7 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
(c) a premium of approximately 261% to the net asset value per Share of approximately HK$0.416 as at 31 December 2025 calculated based on the audited consolidated net assets of the Group as at 31 December 2025 of approximately HK$133 million as shown in the 2025 Annual Report and 319,685,228 Shares in issue as at 31 December 2025;
(d) a theoretical dilution effect (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules) of approximately 5.35%, represented by the theoretical diluted price of approximately HK$2.139 per Share to the benchmarked price of approximately HK$2.26 per Share (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules, taking into account the higher of the closing price on the date of the Announcement of HK$1.90 per Share and the average closing price of the Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the 5 trading days immediately prior to the date of the Announcement of HK$2.26 per Share); and
(e) a cumulative theoretical dilution effect (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules) in aggregation with the 2025 Issue of Shares and the 2026 Issue of Shares represented by a discount of approximately 14.63%, represented by the cumulative theoretical diluted price of approximately HK$0.5327 per Share to the theoretical benchmarked price of HK$0.624 per Share in respect of the 2025 Issue of Shares (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules).
The Placing Price was arrived at after arm's length negotiations between the Company and the Placing Agent with reference to the historical and prevailing market prices of the Shares, the net assets value of the Company attributable to each Share, the financial performance of the Group as well as the funding needs of the Company.
The Directors considered that the primary objective of the Placing is to raise sufficient funds to meet the Group's imminent funding needs as further disclosed in the section headed "Reasons For and Benefits of the Placing and the Underwriting Arrangement and Use of Proceeds". Accordingly, the Placing Price should be determined on a practical basis at a level acceptable to the market, having regard to a balance between (a) the Group's funding needs, and (b) the need to provide adequate incentives for independent places to subscribe for the Placing Shares, taking into account the trend in the Share price.
In this regard, the Directors noted that the Placing Price represents a discount of 21.05% to the closing price on 17 April 2026 and the discount of 33.63% to the benchmarked price (as defined in Rule 13.36(5) of the Listing Rules) of HK$2.26. These discounts were considered in the context of a downward trend in the Share price from mid-February 2026 to 17 April 2026, during which the closing price decreased from a high of HK$3.62 on 12 February 2026 to HK$1.90 on 17 April 2026. Against this background, the Directors considered that the Placing Price provided a reasonable buffer against potential further downward movements without undermining investor interest.
- 8 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
In addition, the Directors are also aware that the Placing Price represents a significant premium to the net asset value per Share, and is significantly higher than the subscription price of HK$0.5 in the 2025 Issue of Shares and the 2026 Issue of Shares, both of which took place within the last twelve months before the date of announcement of the Placing.
Therefore, the Directors considered that the Placing Price is fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
Conditions Precedent to the Placing
Completion of the Placing under the Placing Agreement is conditional upon:
(a) the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange granting or agreeing to grant (subject to allotment) and not having withdrawn or revoked listing of, and permission to deal in, the Placing Shares;
(b) the passing of the ordinary resolutions by the Independent Shareholders approving the Placing Agreement (including the grant of the Specific Mandate), the Underwriting Agreement and the respective transactions contemplated thereunder in accordance with the Listing Rules, at the SGM;
(c) all requirements under the Listing Rules in respect of the Placing and the Underwriting Arrangement having been complied with by the Company;
(d) all necessary consents and approvals to be obtained on the part of the Placing Agent and the Company in respect of the Placing Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder having been obtained; and
(e) the Placing Agreement not being terminated pursuant to the terms thereof.
None of the Conditions Precedent above could be waived by either the Company or the Placing Agent. If the Conditions Precedent are not satisfied on or before the Long Stop Date, being 31 July 2026 (or such other date as the Company and the Placing Agent may agree), all obligations of the Placing Agent and the Company under the Placing Agreement shall cease and terminate.
As soon as practicable and in any event no later than the Placing Period Expiry Date, the Placing Agent will deliver to the Stock Exchange details of the Placees procured to subscribe for the Placing Shares and the number of Placing Shares which they have respectively agreed to subscribe. The Placing Agent on the Placing Period Expiry date will also notify the Company of the total number of Placing Shares for which the Placee(s) have agreed to subscribe at the expiry of the Placing Period.

(3) there is any material change (whether or not forming part of a series of changes) in market conditions which in the reasonable opinion of the Placing Agent would materially and prejudicially affect the Placing or makes it inadvisable or inexpedient for the Placing to proceed;

Double Key shall subscribe at the Placing Price for all such Unsubscribed Placing Shares notified by the Company, provided that the obligations of Double Key to subscribe for such Unsubscribed Placing Shares shall not exceed 35,000,000 Underwritten Shares.
- 11 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Reasons for the Placing and the Underwriting Arrangement
As disclosed in the 2025 Annual Report, the Group had net current liabilities of approximately HK$32.4 million as at 31 December 2025.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The Board noted that, following the completion of (i) the 2025 Issue of Shares and (ii) the 2026 Issue of Shares, the net proceeds raised therefrom had been largely utilised for repayment of outstanding loans, exploration and development of new business opportunities (including charging station projects) and general working capital. As at 30 April 2026, only approximately HK$1.9 million of the net proceeds from the 2026 Issue of Shares remained unutilised.
As disclosed in the Litigation Announcements, the Company, as the borrower, had entered into a guaranteed loan agreement with Hai Xia Finance Holdings Limited, as the lender. A dispute had arisen with respect to the loan agreement where the lender had made a claim against the Company for, among other things, outstanding principal amount and accrued interest with respect to the financial loan. Subsequently, the Company and Hai Xia Finance Holdings Limited reached an agreement in relation to the dispute and the Company will become due to pay to the Plaintiff (as defined in the Litigation Announcements) an aggregate amount of HK$30 million by three equal instalments payable on 30 June 2026, 30 September 2026 and 31 December 2026 respectively.
In light of the Group's financial position and ongoing operational funding needs, the Board considers that the Group continues to face an imminent need for financial resources to support its operations and business expansion, meet its liabilities and maintain a healthy liquidity position. In particular, the Group had bank and cash balances of approximately HK$16,263,000 as at 31 December 2025, which had been further reduced to approximately HK$3,334,000 as at 30 April 2026. However, among other payables of the Group, (i) the first instalment of the settlement amount to Hai Xia Finance Holdings Limited of HK$10,000,000 will become due on 30 June 2026; and (ii) subject to finalisation of its terms, if the Project is materialised, it is expected that the Group's payment obligation in respect of those HK$1,579,000 will arise within the second half of 2026. Therefore, the Placing will enable the Company to reduce its indebtedness, obtain sufficient liquid funds for its operational needs, strengthen its financial position and provide additional funding to support and further develop the Group's business.
The Board has considered several fundraising options, including debt financing and other equity financing methods (e.g., rights issues and open offers), which generally would take longer time, involve higher costs, and add uncertainty due to market conditions and potential discounts needed to attract investors. Given the Group's current financial position and funding needs, the Directors consider that the Placing is the most efficient and beneficial fund-raising option for the Group.
In addition, the Underwriting Arrangement illustrates strong support from the Company's controlling shareholder to the Group's long-term development and provides more flexibility for market participants to be involved in the Placing.
The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors, after considering the advice from the Independent Financial Adviser) consider that the terms of the Placing Agreement and the Underwriting Agreement to be normal commercial terms, and the Placing and the Underwriting Arrangement are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Ms. Cheng Hung Mui ("Ms. Cheng"), an executive Director, the sole shareholder and a director of Double Key, and Mr. Wei Mingren, an executive Director and the Chairman of the Board, being a director of Double Key and the nephew of Mr. Wei Qingwen, who is the spouse of Ms. Cheng, were each considered to have a material interest in the Placing and the Underwriting Arrangement.

Save as disclosed above, to the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, none of the other Directors had any material interest in the Placing, the Underwriting Arrangement or the transactions contemplated thereunder, and accordingly none of them was required to abstain from voting on the relevant Board resolutions.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
LISTING RULES IMPLICATION
As the Placing Price represents a discount of 33.63% to the benchmarked price (as defined in Rule 13.36(5) of the Listing Rules) of HK$2.26 per Share, the Placing Shares will be allotted and issued pursuant to the Specific Mandate to be sought from the Independent Shareholders at the SGM.
The Placing, together with the issue and allotment of new Shares completed by the Company pursuant to the 2025 Issue of Shares and the 2026 Issue of Shares, will result in a cumulative theoretical dilution effect of approximately 14.63%, which is below the 25% threshold as specified under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the theoretical dilution impact of the Placing is in compliance with Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules.
Double Key is a controlling shareholder of the Company and is therefore a connected person of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the Underwriting Arrangement constitutes a connected transaction of the Company and is subject to the reporting, announcement, circular (including independent financial advice) and Independent Shareholders' approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.
To the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, as at the Latest Practicable Date,
(1) Double Key is interested in 210,781,542 Shares, representing approximately 57.02% of the total issued shares of the Company. As a party to the Underwriting Agreement, Double Key and its associates are required to abstain from voting on the resolution(s) to approve the Underwriting Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder, at the SGM. Although Double Key is not a party to the Placing Agreement, the number of Unsubscribed Placing Shares to be subscribed by Double Key will be directly affected by the Placing results. Therefore, Double Key is taken as materially interested in the Placing. Accordingly, Double Key and its associates shall abstain from voting on the resolution(s) in relation to the Placing Agreement (including the grant of the Specific Mandate) and the transactions contemplated thereunder;
(2) Mr. Wei Mingren is interested in 13,000,000 Shares, representing approximately 3.52% of the total issued shares of the Company. For the reasons stated above regarding the material interest (if any) of the Directors, Mr. Wei Mingren is taken to be interested in the Placing and the Underwriting Arrangement, and Mr. Wei Mingren and his associates are therefore required to abstain from voting on all resolutions at the SGM.
Save as disclosed above, to the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, no other Shareholder is required to abstain from voting on the relevant resolution(s) to approve the Placing Agreement (including the grant of the Specific Mandate), the Underwriting Agreement and the respective transactions contemplated thereunder at the SGM.

UNDERWRITING ARRANGEMENT BY A CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDER
INTRODUCTION
We refer to our appointment as the independent financial adviser to advise the independent board committee and the independent shareholders of Tesson Holdings Limited (the "Company") in relation to Placing Agreement (including the Specific Mandate required for the Placing) and the Underwriting Agreement. Details of the Placing Agreement (including the Specific Mandate required for the Placing) and the Underwriting Agreement are set out in the "Letter from the Board" (the "Board Letter") contained in the circular of the Company to the shareholders dated 22 May 2026 (the "Circular"), of which this letter forms part.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS
As the Placing Price represents a discount of 33.63% to the benchmarked price (as defined in Rule 13.36(5) of the Listing Rules) of HK$2.26 per Share, the Placing Shares will be allotted and issued pursuant to the Specific Mandate to be sought from the Independent Shareholders at the SGM.
The Placing, together with the issue and allotment of new Shares completed by the Company pursuant to the 2025 Issue of Shares and the 2026 Issue of Shares, will result in a cumulative theoretical dilution effect of approximately 14.63%, which is below the 25% threshold as specified under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the theoretical dilution impact of the Placing is in compliance with Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules.
Double Key is a controlling shareholder of the Company and is therefore a connected person of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the Underwriting Arrangement constitutes a connected transaction of the Company and is subject to the reporting, announcement, circular (including independent financial advice) and Independent Shareholders' approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.
The Company will seek approval from the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Placing Agreement (including the grant of the Specific Mandate), the Underwriting Agreement and the respective transactions contemplated thereunder by way of a poll at the SGM. As at the Latest Practicable Date,
(1) Double Key is interested in 210,781,542 Shares, representing approximately 57.02% of the total issued shares of the Company. As a party to the Underwriting Agreement, Double Key and its associates are required to abstain from voting on the resolution(s) to approve the Underwriting Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder, at the SGM. Although Double Key is not a party to the Placing Agreement, and the number of Unsubscribed Placing Shares to be subscribed by Double Key will be directly affected by the Placing results. Therefore, Double Key is taken as materially interested in the Placing. Accordingly, Double Key and its associates shall abstain from voting on the resolution(s) in relation to the Placing Agreement (including the grant of the Specific Mandate) and the transactions contemplated thereunder;
(2) Mr. Wei Mingren is interested in 13,000,000 Shares, representing approximately 3.52% of the total issued shares of the Company. For the reasons stated above regarding the material interest (if any) of the Directors, Mr. Wei Mingren is taken to be interested in the Placing and the Underwriting Arrangement, and Mr. Wei Mingren and his associates are therefore required to abstain from voting on all resolutions at the SGM.
Save for Double Key and Mr. Wei Mingren together with respective associates, to the best of the knowledge, information and belief of the Directors, no other Shareholder has a material interest in the transactions contemplated under the Placing Agreement

The Company will apply to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Placing Shares and/or the Underwritten Shares.

Our opinion is necessarily based on the market, financial, economic and other conditions in effect and the information made available to us as at the Latest Practicable Date. Shareholders should note that subsequent developments (including change in market and economic conditions) may affect and/or change our opinion and we have no obligation to update, revise or reaffirm this opinion to take into account events occurring after the Latest Practicable Date. Nothing contained in this letter of advice should be construed as a recommendation to hold, sell or buy any Shares or any other securities of the Company.

PRINCIPAL FACTORS AND REASONS CONSIDERED
In arriving at our opinion to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders with respect to the Placing Agreement (including the grant of the Specific Mandate) and the Underwriting Agreement contemplated thereunder, we have taken into account the principal factors and reasons set out below:
1. Background of the Placing Agreement (including the grant of the Specific Mandate) and the Underwriting Agreement
On 17 April 2026 (after trading hours), the Company entered into the Placing Agreement with the Placing Agent, pursuant to which the Placing Agent has agreed, as agent of the Company, to procure on a "best efforts" basis not less than six (6) Placees who and whose ultimate beneficial owner(s) (if applicable) shall be Independent Third Parties to subscribe for up to 70,000,000 new Shares at the placing price of HK$1.50 per Placing Share.

On 17 April 2026 (after trading hours), the Company also entered into the Underwriting Agreement with Double Key, the controlling shareholder of the Company, pursuant to which Double Key has agreed to underwrite and subscribe for up to 35,000,000 Unsubscribed Placing Shares at the Placing Price.
2. Information of the Company and the Group
The Company is an investment holding company incorporated in the Bermuda with limited liability, whose Shares are listed on the Stock Exchange (stock code: 1201).
The Group principally engaged in the manufacturing and sale of lithium ion motive battery, lithium ion battery module, battery charging devices, battery materials machines and production lines, new energy solution and sale of relevant equipment, investments holding and import and export trading (the "Lithium Ion Motive Battery Business"). In late 2025, the Group commenced the operation of electric vehicles charging network or stations and the provision of ancillary services (the "Charging Station Business").
Set out below is a summary of the audited consolidated financial information on the Group for the two years ended 31 December 2024 as extracted from the Company's annual reports for the year ended 31 December 2024 (the "Annual Report 2024") and 2025 (the "Annual Report 2025"), respectively:

| Loss for the year | (51,649) | (163,587) |
According to the Annual Report 2025, the Group's revenue was derived from two principal businesses namely, Lithium Ion Motive Battery Business and Charging Station Business.
For the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group recorded a decrease in total revenue by approximately $54.1\%$ to approximately HK$30.6 million (2024: approximately HK$66.7 million). The decrease in revenue was mainly due to the ongoing US-China trade war dynamics, customers, as well as related downstream partners, adopted more cautious purchasing strategies and adjusted their production plans, which led to a reduction in orders for the Group's battery products, revenue from the sale decreased compared with the prior year.

Lithium ion motive battery products
For the sale of lithium ion motive battery products, the revenue decreased by approximately 55.5% to approximately HK$29.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2025 (2024: approximately HK$66.7 million). The decrease was primarily due to reduction in sales volume as a consequence of the US-China trade war as compared to last year.
Charging service
During the year end of 31 December 2025, the Group commenced the business to provide charging services for electric vehicles.
As depicted by the above table, the Group recorded a loss of approximately HK$51.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2025 (2024: approximately HK$163.6 million). The decrease in loss was mainly due to the decrease in administrative expenses and loss from operation.

3. Reasons for and benefits of the Placing Agreement (including the grant of the Specific Mandate) and the Underwriting Agreement
Assuming that (i) all the Placing Shares are successfully placed to the Placees; or (ii) at least 35,000,000 Placing Shares are successfully placed to the Placees, with the remaining Unsubscribed Placing Shares being subscribed by Double Key, the gross proceeds from the Placing will amount to approximately HK$105 million. The net proceeds from the Placing, after deducting all relevant expenses, are estimated to be approximately HK$103 million, representing a net price of approximately HK$1.47 per Placing Share.
Intended use of proceeds
The Company intends to apply the net proceeds from the Placing of approximately (i) HK$30 million to settle the outstanding amount payable to Hai Xia Finance Holdings Limited as a result of the dispute detailed in the announcements of the Company dated 18 July 2025 and 16 March 2026 ("Litigation Announcements"); (ii) HK$30 million as general working capital for the lithium ion motive battery business of the Group, including research and development expenses, sales and marketing expenses, settlement of operational expenses comprising electricity expenses, wages and salaries and purchase cost on raw materials; (iii) HK$35 million as general working capital and expansion of the charging station business of the Group, which may involve, among other things, potential investment in, establishment or acquisition of electric vehicles charging stations or related projects; and (iv) HK$8 million as the working capital for the Company's Hong Kong head office, including settlement of staff salary, rental expenses and other operating expenses.
Reasons for and benefits of entering into the Placing Agreement (including the grant of the Specific Mandate) and the Underwriting Agreement
As disclosed in the Letter from the Board, in the 2025 Annual Report, the Group had net current liabilities of approximately HK$32.4 million as at 31 December 2025.
The Independent Financial Adviser noted that, following the completion of (i) the 2025 Issue of Shares and (ii) the 2026 Issue of Shares, the net proceeds raised therefrom had been largely utilised for repayment of outstanding loans, exploration and development of new business opportunities (including charging station projects) and general working capital. As at the 30 April 2026, only approximately HK$1.9 million of the net proceeds from the 2026 Issue of Shares remained unutilised.
As disclosed in the Litigation Announcements, the Company, as the borrower, had entered into a guaranteed loan agreement with Hai Xia Finance Holdings Limited, as the lender. A dispute had arisen with respect to the loan agreement where the lender had made a claim against the Company for, among other things, outstanding principal amount and accrued interest with respect to the financial loan. Subsequently, the Company and Hai Xia Finance Holdings Limited reached an agreement in relation to the dispute and the Company will become due to pay to the Plaintiff (as defined in the Litigation Announcements) an aggregate amount of HK$30 million by three equal instalments payable on 30 June 2026, 30 September 2026 and 31 December 2026 respectively.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER
In light of the Group's financial position and ongoing operational funding needs, the Group continues to face an imminent need for financial resources to support its operations and business expansion, meet its liabilities and maintain a healthy liquidity position. In particular, the Group had bank and cash balances of approximately HK$16,263,000 as at 31 December 2025, which had been further reduced to approximately HK$3,334,000 as at 30 April 2026. However, among other payables of the Group, (i) the first instalment of the settlement amount to Hai Xia Finance Holdings Limited of HK$10,000,000 will become due on 30 June 2026; and (ii) subject to finalisation of its terms, if the Project is materialised, it is expected that the Group's payment obligation in respect of those HK$1,579,000 will arise within the second half of 2026. Therefore, the Placing will enable the Company to reduce its indebtedness, obtain sufficient liquid funds for its operational needs, strengthen its financial position and provide additional funding to support and further develop the Group's business.
Further to our discussion with the Board, we understood that the Board has considered several fundraising options, including debt financing and other equity financing methods (e.g., rights issues and open offers), which generally would take longer time, involve higher costs, and add uncertainty due to market conditions and potential discounts needed to attract investors. Given the Group's current financial position and funding needs, the Directors consider that the Placing is the most efficient and beneficial fund-raising option for the Group.
(a) Debt financing
As stated in the Letter from the Board, apart from the Subscription, the Company has considered a number of financing methods such as debt financing and other ways of equity financing (including open offer, rights issue). The Directors considered that debt and bank financing usually require security of properties and other assets which is not feasible to the Company and will incur additional interest burden to the Group, rendering it not the optimal financing method under the prevailing market conditions.
(b) Equity financing
With respect to equity financing alternatives (such as rights issue and open offer), we understood that the Board considered rights issue or open offer will involve the issue of listing documents with other application and administrative procedures involving the public Shareholders which may require relatively longer time and incur additional administrative costs as compared to the Placing. We concur with the Directors' view that it may take more time and more documentation is required for rights issue or open offer. Furthermore, the Placing and Underwriting Arrangement provide a higher degree of certainty, whereas the outcome of a rights issue or open offer for the fundraising amount would be subject to the uncertainty of the subscription level.
In addition, the Underwriting Arrangement illustrates strong support from the Company's controlling shareholder to the Group's long-term development and provides more flexibility for market participants to be involved in the Placing.
After considering the aforementioned as discussed above, we consider that entering into the Placing and Underwriting Arrangement are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholder as a whole.

The Placing Agent on the Placing Period Expiry date will also notify the Company of the total number of Placing Shares for which the Placee(s) have agreed to subscribe at the expiry of the Placing Period.
5. Our assessment on the Placing Price
In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the Placing Price, we have primarily taken into account (i) the financial position of the Group, which has been discussed in the section headed "2. Information of the Company and the Group" above in this letter; (ii) the historical Share price performance; and (iii) the market comparables in respect of recent issuance of new Shares.
The Placing Price of HK$1.50 represents:
(a) a discount of 21.05% over the closing price of HK$1.90 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on 17 April 2026, being the date of the Announcement;
(b) a discount of 33.63% over the average closing price of HK$2.26 per Share, being the average closing price of Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the 5 trading days immediately prior to the date of the Announcement;
(c) a premium of approximately 261% to the net asset value per Share of approximately HK$0.416 as at 31 December 2025 calculated based on the audited consolidated net assets of the Group as at 31 December 2025 of approximately HK$133 million as shown in the 2025 Annual Report and 319,685,228 Shares in issue as at 31 December 2025;
(d) a theoretical dilution effect (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules) of approximately 5.35%, represented by the theoretical diluted price of
- IFA-11 -
LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER
approximately HK$2.139 per Share to the benchmarked price of approximately HK$2.26 per Share (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules, taking into account the higher of the closing price on the date of the Announcement of HK$1.90 per Share and the average closing price of the Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the 5 trading days immediately prior to the date of the Announcement of HK$2.26 per Share); and
(e) a cumulative theoretical dilution effect (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules) in aggregation with the 2025 Issue of Shares and the 2026 Issue of Shares represented by a discount of approximately 14.63%, represented by the cumulative theoretical diluted price of approximately HK$0.5327 per Share to the theoretical benchmarked price of HK$0.624 per Share in respect of the 2025 Issue of Shares (as defined under Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules).
Review on the historical closing price of the Shares
We have reviewed the chart that illustrates the historical daily closing price of the Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange during the period commencing from 20 October 2025 (being the approximately six months prior to the date of the Announcement) up to and including the date of the Announcement (the "Review Period"). We consider that the Review Period is adequate as it represents a reasonable period to reflect a general overview of the recent price movement of the Shares. The following chart sets out the daily closing prices of the Shares on the Stock Exchange during the Review Period:

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER
The closing price of the Shares fluctuated during the Review Period, between 20 October 2025 to 12 December 2025, the closing price of Shares fluctuated between the lowest at HK$0.68 on 14 November 2025 and 17 November 2025 to HK$1.00 on 21 November 2025, and it increased to the highest at HK$3.62 on 12 February 2026 then decreased to HK$1.90 on the date of Announcement.
As shown in the Chart 1 above, during the Review Period, the daily closing prices of the Shares ranged from the lowest of HK$0.68 per Share on 14 November 2025 and 17 November 2025, to the highest at HK$3.62 on 12 February 2026. The Placing Price of HK$1.50 per Placing Share is within the range during the Review Period.
Review on historical trading liquidity of the Shares
Set out below in the table are the average daily trading volume of the Shares and the percentages of the average daily trading volume ("Average Volume") to the number of total issued Shares during the Review Period.
| Month | Number of trading days in each month
Number of days | Average Volume in Shares | Percentage of the Average Volume to total number of issued Shares as at the end of each respective month
% (Note) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| October 2025 (from 20 October 2025) | 9 | 89,700 | 0.041% |
| November 2025 | 20 | 582,285 | 0.182% |
| December 2025 | 21 | 838,455 | 0.262% |

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER
Given such relatively thin liquidity of the Shares during the Review 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 (i) the thin trading volume of the Shares as illustrated above; (ii) the sharp decreasing trend of the closing price of the Shares since January 2026 to April 2026; and (iii) the general decreasing trend of the Closing Prices from HK$3.62 on 12 February 2026 then decreased to HK$1.90 on the date of Announcement, we consider that the Placing Price is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholder as a whole.
Comparison with recent issuance of new Shares
To assess the fairness and reasonableness of the Specific Mandate Placing Price, we have conducted a review of recent market practices involving the issuance of new shares under a specific mandate. We identified an exhaustive list of 14 comparable transactions (the "Comparable Transactions") based on the following criteria (the "Criteria"): (a) transactions announced by companies listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange during the period from 20 October 2025 up to and including the date of Announcement, being approximately six months prior to the date of Announcement that allows us to identify sufficient samples of comparable transactions for analysis; (b) transactions involving issuance of new shares under the specific mandate; and (c) transactions that did not involve acquisitions, issuance of convertible bond or A shares, rights issues, open offers, loan capitalisation, or restructuring. Such transactions were excluded as the pricing of such transactions may be influenced by factors and conditions that are not comparable to the Specific Mandate Subscription.
Shareholders should note that although the businesses, operations, market capitalisation and prospects of the Company are not the same as the subject companies of the Comparable Transactions, the Comparable Transactions can demonstrate the recent market practices of subscription transactions conducted by companies listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange. We are of the view that the discounts of subscription prices to market prices are not solely determined by these companies' financial performance or funding needs, nor is it merely a result of commercial negotiations with the subscribers. Such discounts are also significantly influenced by prevailing market sentiment. As the market price serves as the most direct reference for independent shareholders, the Comparable Transactions provide a meaningful reference range for the discounts of subscription prices to market prices, as typically accepted by independent shareholders under similar market conditions. Furthermore, as discussed below, there is a lack of recent, comparable transactions among industry peers, and the comparable company analysis is not appropriate. Therefore, we consider that the Comparable Transactions offer a more reliable benchmark for assessing the Specific Mandate Subscription Price and are fair and representative for our analysis.

As shown in the table above:
(a) the LTD Premium/Discount of the Comparable Transactions ranged from a discount of approximately 35.90% to a premium of approximately 8.57%, with average discount of approximately 15.73% and median discount of approximately 17.81%;
(b) the 5 Days Premium/Discount of the Comparable Transactions ranged from a discount of approximately 41.86% to a premium of approximately 8.57%, with average discount of approximately 15.97% and median discount of approximately 19.49%; and
(c) the Net Asset Premium/Discount of the Comparable Transactions ranged from a discount of approximately 83.11% to a premium of approximately 1,600.16%, with average premium of approximately 233.66% and median premium of approximately 54.17%;
Each of the LTD Premium/Discount, the 5 Days Premium/Discount and the Net Asset Premium/Discount represented by the Placing Price falls within the range of the Comparable Transactions despite being higher than the average of the Comparables.
According to our research, we observed that (i) 12 of the 14 Comparables had set the placing price of their placing at a discount to the prevailing closing price of their shares on the last trading day in relation to their respective placing (the "LTD Price"); and (ii) 12 of the 14 Comparables had set the placing price of their placing at a discount to the average closing price per share for the last five consecutive trading days immediately up to and including the last trading day (the "5-Day Discount Price"). It indicates that it is common for listed companies to set the placing price of Placing at a discount to the LTD Price and 5-Day Discount Price, with the view to encouraging participation.
Although the Placing Price to the LTD Price and the 5-Day Discount Price represents a higher discount than the relevant discounts of the Comparables, having considered that (i) the Shares have been traded below the Placing Price for 59 out of 127 trading days during the Review Period (being 20 October 2025 up to and including the Last Trading Day); (ii) the Placing Price represents a premium of approximately 120.59% to the lowest Closing Price of HK$0.68 on 17 November 2025; (iii) the Placing Price represents a lower discount of approximately 21.49% to the average Closing Price of approximately HK$1.91 during the Review Period; and (iv) the Shares exhibited thin trading liquidity, we consider the higher discount of the Placing Price is fair and reasonable as to enhance the attractiveness of the Placing and encourage the Qualifying Shareholders to participate in the Placing.
Taking into account that (i) the Placing Price generally falls below the Closing Price during the Review Period; and (ii) the discounts of the Placing Price to the LTD Price, the 5-Day Discount Price of the Placing fall within discount ranges of the Comparables despite being higher than the average of those of the Comparable, we

have taken into account the following factors in determining whether the Placing Price is fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned: (i) it is common for listed issuers in Hong Kong to issue rights shares at a discount to prevailing market prices in order to enhance the attractiveness of the Placing; (ii) the higher discount of the Placing Price could enhance the attractiveness of the Placing and encourage the Shareholders to participate in the Placing; (iii) the Placing is considered to be a better financing alternative over debt financing and other equity financing methods (e.g., rights issues and open offers); and (iv) all Shareholders are offered an equal opportunity to subscribe for the Shares under the Placing and are offered the same discounts of the Placing Price to the closing price of the Share and the same potential maximum dilution. In light of the above, we are of the view that the Specific Mandate Subscription Price is fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned, and also in alignment with the market practice.
6. Principal terms of the Underwriting Agreement and the Underwriting Arrangement
On 17 April 2026 (after trading hours), the Company also entered into the Underwriting Agreement with Double Key, the controlling shareholder of the Company, pursuant to which Double Key has agreed to underwrite and subscribe for up to 35,000,000 Unsubscribed Placing Shares at the Placing Price. Details of the Underwriting Agreement are set out below:
Date : 17 April 2026 (after trading hours)
Parties : (1) The Company (as issuer); and
(2) Double Key (as underwriter)
Underwriting obligations : Double Key shall have no underwriting obligation if all Placing Shares have been subscribed by the Placee(s) in accordance with the Placing Agreement before the Placing Period Expiry Date, or if the Placing Agreement has been terminated in accordance with the terms therein;
- IFA-17 -
LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER
If by the Placing Period Expiry Date, any of the Placing Shares has not been placed by the Placing Agent pursuant to the Placing Agreement, the Company shall as soon as practicable thereafter and in any event before 4:00 p.m. on the next Business Day following the Placing Period Expiry Date notify Double Key in writing the number of Unsubscribed Placing Shares. Double Key shall subscribe at the Placing Price for all such Unsubscribed Placing Shares notified by the Company, provided that the obligations of Double Key to subscribe for such Unsubscribed Placing Shares shall not exceed 35,000,000 Underwritten Shares.
Fees and expenses
: Double Key will not receive from the Company any underwriting commission or fee under the Underwriting Agreement. All costs, fees, charges and out-of-pocket expenses relating or incidental to the underwriting of the Underwritten Shares incurred by Double Key shall be solely borne by Double Key.
For details of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, please refer to the section headed "THE UNDERWRITING ARRANGEMENT" in the Letter from the Board.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, Double Key is wholly owned by Ms. Cheng Hung Mui, an executive Director. Ms. Cheng Hung Mui and Mr. Wei Mingren, both executive Directors, are the directors of Double Key and Double Key is a controlling shareholder of the Company, holding approximately 57.02% of the issued Shares. Accordingly, Double Key is a connected person of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Pursuant to the underwriting obligations, Double Key shall subscribe at the Placing Price for all such Unsubscribed Placing Shares notified by the Company, provided that the obligations of Double Key to subscribe for such Unsubscribed Placing Shares shall not exceed 35,000,000 Underwritten Shares ("Underwriting Obligations").
We consider that the Underwriting Obligations and the underwriting arrangement would secure the Company's fund-raising to a certain extent. Furthermore, the Underwriting Obligations, together with the underwriting arrangement indicate Double Key's support for the Placing and the Group's financial needs.
- IFA-18 -
LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER
Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriter will not receive any underwriting commission. We consider that this is beneficial to the Company as it can avoid any additional transaction cost to be incurred should the Company appoint an independent underwriter for the Unsubscribed Placing Shares.
Having considered that (i) the Placing Shares will firstly be placed to the independent place(s) by the Placing Agent before underwritten by Double Key; (ii) the underwriting arrangement will enable the Group to secure fund-raising through the Placing to a certain extent; (iii) the Underwriting Obligations by Double Key, together with the underwriting arrangement indicate the support from Double Key to the Group's financial needs; (iv) there is no cost incurred to the Company for the underwriting arrangement which is favourable to the Company; (v) the Placing would strengthen the capital base and financial position of the Group; (vi) the Placing Price is acceptable and in line with recent market transactions as discussed in the section headed "5. Our assessment on the Placing Price" above; and (vii) the Placing and Underwriting Arrangement are on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable as discussed in the section headed "4. Principal terms of the Placing Agreement and the Placing Shares" and "6. Principal terms of the Underwriting Agreement and the Underwriting Arrangement" above, we are of the view that although the entering of the Underwriting Agreement is not in the ordinary and usual course of the Group's business, the Underwriting Agreement is on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders (including the Independent Shareholders) as a whole.
