Vital Innovations Seeks 20% Issuance Mandate and 10% Buy-back Authority; Three Directors Up for Re-election at 29 Jun 2026 AGM

Bulletin Express04-30

Vital Innovations Holdings Limited released its AGM circular dated 30 Apr 2026, detailing resolutions that will be put to shareholders on 29 Jun 2026 at 11:00 a.m. in Central, Hong Kong.

Key Mandate Proposals • Issue Mandate: The Board seeks authority to allot, issue or otherwise deal with up to 170.00 million new shares—20% of the 850.00 million shares in issue as at 24 Apr 2026, the latest practicable date. • Buy-back Mandate: Directors also request approval to repurchase up to 85.00 million shares, representing 10% of issued share capital. Shares bought back may be cancelled or held as treasury stock, with any resale of treasury shares counted towards the Issue Mandate. • Combined Authority: A separate resolution would extend the Issue Mandate by the number of shares actually repurchased under the Buy-back Mandate.

Share Capital and Ownership Implications • Vital Innovations had 850.00 million issued shares and no treasury shares as of 24 Apr 2026. • Chairperson and Executive Director Ms. Rong Xiuli is deemed interested in 568.48 million shares (66.88%). If the Buy-back Mandate is exercised in full, her stake would rise to approximately 74.31%, still below the 30% Takeovers Code trigger for a mandatory general offer. • The Board states it will not execute repurchases that would reduce the public float below the 25% requirement.

Director Re-elections • Executive Directors: Ms. Rong Xiuli (Chairperson) and Mr. Rong Shengli (Chief Executive Officer) will retire by rotation and stand for re-election. • Independent Non-executive Director: Mr. Wong Pong Chun James, INED since December 2020, also seeks re-election. • The Nomination Committee and the Board support all three candidates, citing their industry experience and contributions.

AGM Logistics • Record Date & Book Closure: Shareholders must be on the register by 23 Jun 2026; the register will be closed from 24–29 Jun 2026 (both dates inclusive). • Proxy Deadline: 27 Jun 2026, 11:00 a.m., to Tricor Investor Services Limited. • Voting: All resolutions will be decided by poll.

Auditor Re-appointment Shareholders will vote on re-appointing Confucius International CPA Limited as auditor and authorising the Board to set its remuneration.

Board Recommendation The Board believes the proposed mandates and re-elections serve the company’s and shareholders’ interests and recommends voting in favour of all resolutions.
