(stock code: 00659)

ANNOUNCEMENT 

ADJUSTMENT TO CONVERSION PRICE OF

HK$780,000,000 4.00 PER CENT. CONVERTIBLE BONDS DUE 2025

 

Reference is made to (i) the announcements of the Company dated 15 January
2025 and 22 January 2025 in relation to the Bonds (together, the „CB
Announcements“); and (ii) the announcement of the Company dated 26
February 2025 in relation to the unaudited consolidated interim results of
the Group for the six months ended 31 December 2024 (the „2025 Interim
Results Announcement“). Capitalised terms used in this announcement shall
have the same meanings as those defined in the CB Announcements unless
otherwise stated.

As disclosed in the CB Announcements, pursuant to the terms and conditions
of the Bonds, the Conversion Price is subject to adjustment for, among
other things, distribution to the Shareholders. The Conversion Price shall
be adjusted by multiplying the Conversion Price in force immediately prior
to such distribution by the following fraction:

   A-B   
A

where:

A is the Current Market Price of one Share on the date on which the
distribution is publicly announced; and

B is the Fair Market Value on the date of such announcement of the portion
of the distribution in Hong Kong dollars attributable to one Share.

Such adjustment shall become effective on the date that such distribution
is actually made or if a record date is fixed therefor, immediately after
such record date.

As announced in the 2025 Interim Results Announcement, the Board has
resolved to declare an interim ordinary dividend of HK$0.30 per Share and
a special dividend of HK$0.30 per Share (collectively, the „2025 Interim
Dividend“) for the six months ended 31 December 2024. The 2025 Interim
Dividend will be paid to the Shareholders whose names appear on the
register of members of the Company on 21 March 2025 (the „Record Date“).

Accordingly and assuming that no other event that may trigger an
adjustment to the Conversion Price will occur on or before 22 March 2025,
the Conversion Price will be adjusted from HK$8.043 per Share to HK$7.39
per Share (the „Adjustment“) as a result of the declaration of the 2025
Interim Dividend to be paid to the Shareholders and the Adjustment will
become effective on 22 March 2025, being the date immediately after the
Record Date.

Save for the Adjustment, all other terms and conditions of the Bonds
remain unchanged.

As at the date of this announcement, HK$780,000,000 in aggregate principal
amount of the Bonds remains outstanding. Immediately following the
Adjustment and assuming that the outstanding aggregate principal amount of
the Bonds remains unchanged, the maximum number of New Shares that will be
issued by the Company upon full conversion of the outstanding Bonds at the
adjusted Conversion Price of HK$7.39 per Share will be 105,548,037 Shares,
representing:

 a. an increase of 8,569,298 New Shares (the „Additional Conversion
Shares“) from the original 96,978,739 New Shares based on the initial
Conversion Price of HK$8.043 per Share;
 b. approximately 2.64% of the existing number of issued Shares of the
Company of 3,997,540,085 Shares as at the date of this announcement;
and
 c. approximately 2.57% of the number of issued Shares of the Company, as
enlarged by the issue and allotment of the New Shares upon full
conversion of the Bonds (assuming that there is no other change to the
issued share capital of the Company).

The Additional Conversion Shares will be issued and allotted pursuant to
the General Mandate. The Company is entitled to issue and allot a maximum
of 799,508,017 Shares pursuant to the General Mandate and, as at the date
of this announcement, no Shares have been issued pursuant to the General
Mandate. Accordingly, the General Mandate is sufficient to cover the issue
of the New Shares (including Additional Conversion Shares) upon full
conversion of the Bonds.

An application will be made by the Company to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange
for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Additional Conversion
Shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in due course.
