Shenzhen Investment Holdings Bay Area Development Company Limited (BAY AREA DEV, stock code: 00737) has released its latest shareholder circular dated 9 November 2026. The English and Chinese versions are now accessible on both the company’s designated website (https://sihbay.aconnect.com.hk) and the HKEXnews platform (www.hkexnews.hk). Printed copies have been dispatched only to investors who previously elected hard-copy delivery.

Aligned with the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong’s expanded paperless listing regime (Rule 2.07A effective 31 December 2023), BAY AREA DEV has formally adopted electronic dissemination for all future corporate communications. Consequently, forthcoming annual and interim reports, meeting notices, circulars, listing documents and proxy forms will be provided online in lieu of hard copies.

Registered shareholders are invited to confirm their preferred mode of receipt. Those requiring printed documents must complete and return the enclosed reply form or email the Hong Kong Branch Share Registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at sihbay.ecom@computershare.com.hk. Each hard-copy election remains valid for one year from the date the instruction is received.

To ensure timely updates, the company recommends shareholders supply an active email address by scanning the personalised QR code on the reply form. Without a functional email address on record, investors will not receive electronic notifications and must monitor the company’s and HKEX’s websites independently; actionable corporate communications will continue to be mailed in printed form.

Shareholders experiencing difficulties accessing the online circular or requiring printed materials may request copies free of charge from Computershare at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wan Chai, Hong Kong, or via the above email. Telephone enquiries are handled on business days between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time) at +852 2862 8688.
