EASOU Technology Holdings Limited has called an extraordinary general meeting (EGM) for 27 March 2026 to vote on three capital-related proposals:

1. 2025 Share Award Scheme II • Size: New shares issuable capped at 10% of issued share capital on the adoption date (≈45.21 million shares). • Service-provider sub-limit: 1% of issued shares (≈4.52 million). • Eligibility: Employees, directors, related-entity participants and designated service providers. • Vesting: Minimum 12-month period, with specific exemptions for “make-whole” grants, death/disability and other limited cases. • Grants to connected persons above 0.1% of issued shares in any 12-month period require independent shareholder approval. • Scheme term: 10 years from adoption, subject to HKEX listing approval of the new shares.

2. HK$180.00 Million Wealth Management Product (WMP) Subscription Plan • Product type: Principal-protected / low-risk guaranteed structured notes. • Aggregate principal: Not more than HK$180.00 million (or equivalent). • Tenor: Below 12 months; annualised return capped at 6%. • Funding: Idle proceeds from the June 2025 placing (HK$180.67 million raised) and July 2025 placing (HK$338.03 million raised), plus working capital. • Purpose: Optimise cash utilisation pending deployment of placement proceeds earmarked for R&D, overseas expansion and digital asset investments.

3. Refreshment of General Mandate • Existing mandate (20% of issued shares) fully utilised after July 2025 placing; only 448 shares remain available. • New mandate sought to allot and issue up to 20% of current issued shares—equivalent to 90.41 million new shares—plus an extension for shares repurchased under the 10% buy-back mandate. • Controlling shareholder Wang Xi (23.64% stake) and his associates, together holding 106.86 million shares, will abstain from voting on the new mandate.

Key Dates and Capital Snapshot • EGM: 27 March 2026, Shenzhen. • Record date: 27 March 2026; register closes 24–27 March 2026. • Shares in issue: 452.05 million; no treasury shares. • If the new mandate is fully used, public float would drop from 75.90% to 63.25%.

The Board cites the need for financing flexibility to pursue potential acquisitions and investments aligned with the group’s AI-driven digital content strategy as the main rationale for the proposals.
