(b)the proposed grant of a general mandate to repurchase Shares;

 

(c)the proposed re-election of the retiring Directors; and

 

(d)the proposed re-appointment of the auditor.

 

2.PROPOSED GRANT OF GENERAL MANDATE TO ISSUE SHARES

 

Pursuant to the resolution passed at the annual general meeting of the Company held on December 21, 2023, a general mandate was granted to the Directors to allot, issue and deal with Shares. Such mandate, to the extent not utilised by the date of the Annual General Meeting, will lapse at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting.

 

In order to ensure flexibility and give discretion to the Directors in the event that it becomes desirable for the Company to issue any new Shares (including any sale or transfer of treasury Shares), an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to approve the granting of the Sale Mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to allot, issue and/or otherwise deal with additional Shares (including any sale or transfer of treasury Shares out of treasury) not exceeding 5% of the total number of issued Shares (excluding any treasury Shares) as at the date of passing of the resolution in relation to the Sale Mandate.

 

As at the Latest Practicable Date, 1,261,751,085 Shares have been fully issued and paid. Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution numbered 4(A) set out in the AGM Notice and on the basis that the issued share capital of the Company remains unchanged after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed to issue (or transfer out of treasury) a maximum of 63,087,554 Shares.

 

In addition, subject to a separate approval of the ordinary resolution numbered 4(C) set out in the AGM Notice, the number of Shares purchased by the Company under the ordinary resolution numbered 4(B) set out in the AGM Notice will be added to extend the Sale Mandate as mentioned in the ordinary resolution numbered 4(A) set out in the AGM Notice provided that such additional value shall not exceed 10% of the total number of issued Shares (excluding any treasury Shares) as at the date of passing the resolution in relation to the Repurchase Mandate. The Directors wish to state that they have no immediate plan to issue any new Shares (including to sell or transfer any treasury Shares out of treasury) pursuant to the Sale Mandate.

 

The Sale Mandate will expire upon whichever is the earliest of: (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (b) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles of Association or by applicable laws to be held; and (c) the date on which the authority given under the ordinary resolution approving the Sale Mandate is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders.

3.PROPOSED GRANT OF GENERAL MANDATE TO REPURCHASE SHARES

 

Pursuant to the resolution passed at the annual general meeting of the Company held on December 21, 2023, a general mandate was granted to the Directors to repurchase Shares. Such mandate will expire at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting. In order to ensure flexibility and give discretion to the Directors in the event that it becomes desirable for the Company to repurchase Shares, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to approve the granting of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to repurchase Shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange not exceeding 10% of the total number of issued Shares (excluding any treasury Shares) as at the date of passing of the resolution in relation to the Repurchase Mandate.

 

As at the Latest Practicable Date, 1,261,751,085 Shares have been fully issued and paid. Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution numbered 4(B) set out in the AGM Notice and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed to repurchase a maximum of 126,175,108 Shares.

 

An explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to be sent to the Shareholders in connection with the proposed Repurchase Mandate is set out in Appendix II to this circular. This explanatory statement contains all information reasonably necessary to enable the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the relevant resolution in relation to the Repurchase Mandate at the Annual General Meeting.

 

The Repurchase Mandate will expire upon whichever is the earliest of: (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (b) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles of Association or by any applicable laws to be held; and (c) the date on which the authority given under the ordinary resolution approving the Repurchase Mandate is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders.

 

4.PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

 

In accordance with the Articles of Association, Mr. Ye Guofu and Mr. Wang Yongping shall retire at the Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election at the Annual General Meeting. Details of the above retiring Directors who are subject to re-election at the Annual General Meeting are set out in Appendix I to this circular.

 

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has reviewed the structure and composition of the Board, the confirmations and disclosures given by the Directors, the qualifications, skills and experience, time commitment and contribution of the retiring Directors with reference to the nomination principles and criteria set out in the Company’s board diversity policy, Director nomination policy and the Company’s corporate strategy, as well as the independence of the independent non-executive Directors. Mr. Wang Yongping, the retiring independent non-executive Director, has confirmed his independence pursuant to Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board considered that the retiring independent non-executive Director is independent in accordance with the independence guidelines set out in the Listing Rules, and are satisfied with all the retiring Directors’ contribution to the Company, which will continue to bring valuable business experience, knowledge and professionalism to the Board for its efficient and effective functioning and diversity. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board therefore recommended the re-election of all the retiring Directors including the aforesaid independent non-executive Director who is due to retire at the Annual General Meeting.

APPENDIX I DETAILS OF DIRECTORS PROPOSED FOR RE-ELECTION

 

The following is an explanatory statement required to be sent to the Shareholders under the Listing Rules in connection with the proposed Repurchase Mandate.

 

SHARE CAPITAL

 

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the number of issued Shares was 1,261,751,085 Shares of nominal value of US$0.00001 each which have been fully paid. Subject to the passing of the resolution in relation to the granting of the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that the issued share capital of the Company remains unchanged after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed to repurchase a maximum of 126,175,108 Shares which represent 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of the Annual General Meeting.

 

REASONS FOR REPURCHASE

 

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders to have a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase its Shares in the market. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the Company’s net asset value and/or its earnings per Share. The Directors are seeking the granting of the Repurchase Mandate to give the Company the flexibility to do so if and when appropriate. The number of Shares to be repurchased on any occasion and the price and other terms upon which the same are repurchased will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time, having regard to the circumstances then pertaining.

 

FUNDING OF REPURCHASE

 

Repurchase of the Shares must be funded out of funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Listing Rules, the memorandum of association of the Company, the Articles of Association, the Companies Act and other applicable laws of the Cayman Islands. The Directors may not repurchase the Shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for a consideration other than cash or for settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Subject to the foregoing, the Directors may make repurchases with profits of the Company or out of proceeds of a new issuance of Shares made for the purpose of the repurchase or out of the Company’s share premium account or, if authorised by the Articles of Association and subject to the Companies Act, out of capital.

 

The Directors believe that if the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full, it may not have a material adverse impact on the working capital and gearing position of the Company, as compared with the positions disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The Directors do not intend to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or its gearing levels which, in the opinion of the Directors, are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

APPENDIX I DETAILS OF DIRECTORS PROPOSED FOR RE-ELECTION

 

GENERAL

 

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge, having made all reasonable enquiries, their respective close associates, have any present intention if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders, to sell any Shares to the Company.

 

No core connected persons have notified the Company that he or she or it has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so, if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

 

The Directors will exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, the memorandum of association of the Company, the Articles of Association and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands. Neither this explanatory statement nor the Repurchase Mandate has any unusual features.

 

The Company may cancel such repurchased Shares or hold them as treasury Shares, subject to market conditions and the Group’s capital management needs at the relevant time of the repurchases.

 

For any treasury Shares deposited with CCASS pending resale on the Stock Exchange, the Company shall (i) procure its broker not to give any instructions to HKSCC to vote at general meetings of the Company for the treasury Shares deposited with CCASS; and (ii) in the case of dividends or distributions, withdraw the treasury Shares from CCASS, and either re-register them in its own name as treasury Shares or cancel them, in each case before the record date for the dividends or distributions, or take any other measures to ensure that it will not exercise any shareholders’ rights or receive any entitlements which would otherwise be suspended under the applicable laws if those Shares were registered in its own name as treasury Shares.

 

TAKEOVERS CODE

 

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, 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 the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in the Shareholder’s interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and thereby become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

APPENDIX IIEXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

 

In the event that the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full and assuming that there is no other change in the issued share capital of the Company between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of repurchase, the shareholding of these Shareholders in the Company would be increased to approximately the respective percentages as shown in the last column of the table above. To the best knowledge and belief of our Directors, such increase would not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

 

In addition, the Listing Rules prohibit a company from making repurchase on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange if the result of the repurchase would be that less than 25% (or such other prescribed minimum percentage as determined by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange) of the total number of issued Shares would be in public hands. The Directors do not propose to repurchase Shares which would result in the aggregate number of the Shares held by the public falling below the prescribed minimum percentage required by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

 

SHARE PRICES

 

The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares were traded on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange during the twelve months preceding the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:
