REASONS FOR ENTERING INTO THE SALE AND PURCHASE AGREEMENT

The Group has been principally engaged in providing supply chain solutions in multiple apparel categories for notable brands.

The entering into of the Sale and Purchase Agreement will enable the Company to further expand its apparel category portfolio by acquiring the Assets in relation to the production of sweaters, providing a foundation for the Company to expand its business and further strengthen its market position.

The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the terms of the Sale and Purchase Agreement are fair and reasonable and on normal commercial terms and that the entering into of the Sale and Purchase Agreement is in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

The Board is pleased to complete this transaction. Though in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic and global economic uncertainty, the management believes it remains an opportune time for the Group to gauge merger and acquisition opportunities to grow the Group's business and enhance return to the Company's shareholders. The Board will stick to the strategy set out in the Company's prospectus dated 31 October 2019 and will continue to explore appropriate merger and acquisition opportunities to gain market share by expanding our apparel category portfolio and to create incremental profitability by achieving synergies such as cross-selling and economies of scale.

By order of the Board
