Bulletin Express
Sep 17

Zhengwei Group Holdings Company Limited announced a non-underwritten rights issue on the basis of six rights shares for every one existing share held on the record date of 17 September 2026.

Key Terms • Rights shares to be issued: up to 403.20 million • Subscription price: HK$0.40 per rights share, a 28.57% discount to the HK$0.56 closing price on the last trading day (3 August 2026). • Gross proceeds: up to HK$161.28 million; estimated net proceeds: HK$160.43 million after HK$0.85 million expenses. • Nil-paid rights trading: 22–29 September 2026; fully-paid rights trading begins 5 November 2026. • No excess application; any unsubscribed or non-qualifying entitlements will be placed out on a best-effort basis.

Capital Structure Impact The issue represents 600.00% of current issued shares and will enlarge the share capital from 67.20 million to a maximum 470.40 million shares, assuming full take-up.

Use of Proceeds All net proceeds are earmarked for repayment of RMB200.00 million (approximately HK$226.00 million) short-term bank borrowings tied to a RMB150.00 million deposit placed with an import agent for chicken and beef raw materials. Management expects the funding to alleviate liquidity pressure ahead of loan maturity in October 2026.

Shareholder Support Executive Director and Chairman Mr. Yang Shengyao and Ms. Lin Qiuyun have undertaken that their wholly-owned vehicles, Shengyao Investment Group Limited and Trendy Peak International Limited, will subscribe in full for their provisional allotments (14.16 million shares in aggregate). No other irrevocable commitments have been received.

Compensatory Arrangements Unsubscribed and non-qualifying rights shares will be placed by CNI Securities Group Limited between 7–28 October 2026. Net premium, if any, will be distributed to shareholders who do not take up their entitlements, subject to a HK$100 de-minimis threshold.

Conditions The rights issue is subject to listing approval for the nil-paid and fully-paid rights shares. If conditions are not met by 29 October 2026, the transaction will lapse.

Timetable Highlights (2026) • Prospectus despatch: 18 September • Latest payment/acceptance: 5 October • Results announcement: 3 November

Risk Reminder As dealings in nil-paid rights precede completion, investors face the risk that the rights issue might not become unconditional.
