APPENDIX II
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
This Appendix contains the particulars that are required by the Listing Rules to be included in an explanatory statement to enable the Shareholders to make an informed view on whether to vote for or against the resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting in relation to the general mandate to repurchase Shares ("Repurchase Mandate").
SHARE CAPITAL
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 899,845,554 Shares.
Exercise in full of the Repurchase Mandate, on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the date of the Annual General Meeting, could accordingly result in up to a maximum of 89,984,555 Shares, representing 10% of the number of Shares in issue as at the date of the Annual General Meeting (assuming the number of Shares in issue remains unchanged following the Latest Practicable Date and prior to the date of the Annual General Meeting) being repurchased by the Company during the period from the date of Annual General Meeting to the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Bye-laws or any applicable laws to be held; and (iii) the date upon which such authority is revoked or varied.
REASONS FOR REPURCHASES
The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders to seek a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Directors to purchase Shares in the market. Such purchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net value of the Company and its assets and/or its earnings per share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a purchase will benefit the Company and its Shareholders.
FUNDING OF REPURCHASES
Pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, repurchases would be funded entirely from the Company's available cash flow or working capital facilities which will be funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with all applicable laws of Bermuda and the Company's memorandum of association and Bye-laws.
On the basis of the consolidated financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2024 (being the date to which the latest published audited financial statements of the Company have been made up), the Directors consider that the exercise in full of the repurchase mandate to repurchase Shares might have a material adverse impact on the working capital position of the Company as compared with its position as at 31 December 2024. No purchase would be made in circumstances that might have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the latest published audited
APPENDIX II
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
financial statements) unless the Directors considered that such purchases were in the best interests of the Company notwithstanding such material adverse impact.
SHARE PRICES AND REPURCHASED SHARES
The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares have traded on the Stock Exchange in each of the previous twelve months are as follows:
| | Highest
HK$ | Lowest
HK$ |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2024 | | |
| April | 0.23 | 0.16 |
| May | 0.23 | 0.215 |
| June | 0.23 | 0.204 |
| July | 0.209 | 0.188 |
| August | 0.188 | 0.16 |
| September | 0.19 | 0.17 |
| October | 0.48 | 0.159 |
| November | 0.47 | 0.295 |
| December | 0.425 | 0.3 |
| 2025 | | |
| January | 0.3 | 0.243 |
| February | 0.285 | 0.18 |
| March | 0.195 | 0.168 |
| April (up to the Latest Practicable Date) | 0.315 | 0.16 |
The Company has not made any purchase of Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) in the previous six months.
EFFECT OF THE TAKEOVERS CODE
If as a result of a share repurchase, a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a shareholder, or a group of shareholders acting in concert, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.
To the best knowledge of the Directors and according to the register of substantial shareholders' interest in shares kept under section 336 of Part XV of the SFO, as at the Latest Practicable Date, MARS Worldwide Holdings Limited ("Mars. Worldwide") was interested in 411,293,396 Shares, representing approximately $45.71\%$ of the issued share capital of the Company. In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares which is proposed to be granted pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, the shareholding of MARS
APPENDIX II
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
Worldwide in the Company would be increased to approximately 50.79% of the issued share capital of the Company. The increase of MARS Worldwide's proportionate interest in the Company will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, MARS Worldwide or a group of Shareholders acting in concert with it could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and, when exceeding the 2% creeper, become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code as a result of any such increase. Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any consequences which may arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any repurchase made under the Repurchase Mandate. The Directors have no present intention to exercise the share repurchase mandate to such an extent as would trigger the application of the Takeovers Code in the manner described above.
CORE CONNECTED PERSONS
No persons who are core connected persons of the Company have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares held by them to the Company, or that they have undertaken not to do so, if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.
