2. GENERAL MANDATE TO REPURCHASE SHARES

At the last annual general meeting of the Company held on 19 June 2025, resolutions of the Shareholders were passed to grant general unconditional mandates to the Directors to:

  • (a) repurchase Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the total number of issued Shares (excluding any Treasury Shares) as at the date of passing of such resolution;

  • (b) allot, issue and otherwise deal with Shares not exceeding 20% of the total number of issued Shares (excluding any Treasury Shares) as at the date of passing such resolution; and

  • (c) add to the general mandate for issuing Shares as mentioned in paragraph (b) above the total number of issued Shares repurchased by the Company under the general mandate granted to the Directors to repurchase Shares as mentioned in paragraph (a) above.

The above general mandates will lapse at the conclusion of the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. It is therefore proposed to seek your approval of the ordinary resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to give fresh general mandates to the Directors.

The Directors propose to seek your approval of the Repurchase Proposal to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting, details of which are set out in ordinary resolution no. 4 of the notice of Annual General Meeting. Subject to the passing of ordinary resolution no. 4 and on the basis of the total number of issued Shares of 2,667,643,050 Shares at the Latest Practicable Date that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the Annual General Meeting, the total number of Shares which may be repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Proposal are 266,764,305 Shares representing not more than 10% of the total number of the issued Shares (excluding any Treasury Shares) as at the date of passing the ordinary resolution approving the Repurchase Proposal.

An explanatory statement, as required to be sent to Shareholders under the Listing Rules to regulate the repurchase by companies with primary listings on the Stock Exchange of their own securities on the Stock Exchange to provide requisite information of the Repurchase Proposal, is set out in Appendix I hereto.

3. GENERAL MANDATE TO ISSUE NEW SHARES

Two ordinary resolutions will also be proposed at the Annual General Meeting, namely ordinary resolutions nos. 5 and 6 respectively granting to the Directors a general mandate to allot, issue and deal with Shares not exceeding 20% of the total number of the issued Shares (excluding any Treasury Shares) as at the date of passing the resolution (i.e. not exceeding 533,528,610 Shares based on the total number of issued Shares of 2,667,643,050 Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming that such total number of the issued Shares remains the same as at the date of passing the resolution) and adding to such general mandate so granted to

the Directors any Shares representing the total number of issued Shares repurchased by the Company after the granting of the general mandate to repurchase Shares up to 10% of the total number of the issued Shares (excluding any Treasury Shares) of the Company as at the date of the passing of the Repurchase Resolution.

4. RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Board consists of three executive Directors, namely Mr. Lee Lap, Mr. Tommy Lee and Mr. Chau Hau Shing, and three independent non-executive Directors, namely Mr. Shu Wa Tung, Laurence, Mr. Wu Wai Pan and Ms. Chak Wai Ting who have respectively served as independent non-executive Directors for approximately 4, 4 and 3.5 years.

Pursuant to the Bye-laws, Mr. Wu Wai Pan and Ms. Chak Wai Ting, being the Directors longest in office since their last re-election, will retire by rotation at the Annual General Meeting. These Directors, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election.

The nomination committee of the Board (the ‘‘ Nomination Committee ’’) and the Board had assessed and reviewed the annual written confirmation of independence of each of the independent non-executive Directors for the year ended 31 December 2025 based on the independence criteria as set out in Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules. They have extensive working experience in financial and business management and have not engaged in any executive management of the Group. The Board considers that they are independent and will make valuable contribution to the Group.

Having regard to the Board’s diversity and the nomination policy adopted by the Company, the Board, with the recommendation of the Nomination Committee, has proposed Mr. Wu Wai Pan and Ms. Chak Wai Ting, to stand for re-election as Directors at the Annual General Meeting.

Details of these Directors proposed for re-election at the Annual General Meeting are set out in the Appendix II to this circular.

5. RE-APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to re-appoint PricewaterhouseCoopers as auditor and to authorise the Board to fix the remuneration of the auditor.

The estimated audit fee for the upcoming reporting period is expected to be in the range of HK$1,900,000 to HK$2,400,000, based on the 2025 annual audit fee of HK$2,280,000. This estimate is based on discussions between the Company and the auditor, taking into account the current audit fee, and the complexity of the Company’s operations, the planned business activities for the period, the expected audit scope, the proposed audit timetable, and the auditors’ resources required to perform the audit, which are expected to be similar to those in the 2025 reporting

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Share Repurchase Rules, to provide requisite information to you for your consideration of the Repurchase Proposal.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 2,667,643,050 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the Repurchase Resolution and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the Annual General Meeting, the Company would be allowed under the Repurchase Resolution to repurchase a maximum of 266,764,305 Shares representing 10% of the total number of issued Shares (excluding any Treasury Shares) as at the Latest Practicable Date.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had no Shares repurchased and did not hold any Treasury Shares. If on the exercise the power to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Proposal, the Company intends to cancel the repurchased Shares following settlement of such repurchase and not to hold the same as Treasury Shares.

2. REASONS FOR REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the Repurchase Proposal is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders. Such repurchase may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and its Shareholders.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASE

In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its memorandum of association and bye-laws and the applicable laws of Bermuda. Bermuda law provides that the amount of capital repaid in connection with a share repurchase may only be paid out of the capital paid up on the relevant Shares, or the funds of the Company that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose. The amount of premium payable on repurchase may only be paid out of either the funds of the Company that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the share premium account of the Company. Further, a company cannot purchase its own Shares if on the date on which the purchase is to be effected, there are reasonable grounds for believing that the Company is, or after the purchase would be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due.

The Directors at present have not decided which proposed source of funding is to be used when the Repurchase Proposal is exercised.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Proposal to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

4. SHARE PRICES

The Directors confirmed that neither the explanatory statement, as set out on pages 8 to 10 of this circular, nor the Repurchase Mandate has unusual features.

None of the Directors, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, nor any of their close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules), has any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company if the Repurchase Proposal is approved by the Shareholders.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

No core connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) has notified the Company that he/she has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Proposal is approved by the Shareholders.

If on the exercise of the power to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Resolution, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or 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 Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Lee & Leung (B.V.I.) Limited and aEasy Finance Holdings Limited held on a beneficial basis a total of 1,252,752,780 Shares and 710,000,000 Shares respectively representing approximately 46.96% and 26.62% respectively of the issued Share capital of the Company. Based on such shareholdings and in the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchases Proposal, the shareholdings of Lee & Leung (B.V.I.) Limited and aEasy Finance Holdings Limited will be increased to approximately 52.18% and 29.57% respectively of the issued Share capital of the Company and the number of Shares held by the public will be reduced to less than 25% of the total number of Shares of the Company and an obligation to make general offer may arise.

Save as mentioned above, the Directors are not aware of any consequences which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any repurchases made under the Repurchase Proposal and have no present intention to exercise the power to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Proposal to such an extent that an obligation to make a mandatory offer under the Takeovers Code may arise.

The Listing Rules prohibit a company from making repurchase of its shares on the Stock Exchange if the repurchase would result in a public shareholding of less than 25% (or such other prescribed minimum percentage as determined by the Stock Exchange). The Company has no present intention to repurchase Shares to such extent as to result in the number of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25%.

6. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

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