Public Financial Holdings Limited (PUBLIC FIN HOLD) has issued a notice convening a Special General Meeting (SGM) for 10:30 a.m. on 23 November 2026 at the Kowloon Shangri-La Hotel in Hong Kong, to be held immediately after a Court-convened meeting scheduled for the same venue and date.

The sole agenda item is a special resolution required to implement the proposed scheme of arrangement (the “Scheme”) between the company and its scheme shareholders. Key actions subject to shareholder and court approval include:

• Cancellation of all Scheme Shares, resulting in a reduction of the company’s issued share capital. • Simultaneous issuance to the offeror of an equal number of new shares, credited as fully paid, to maintain the company’s issued share capital at its pre-cancellation level by applying the reserve created from the cancellation. • Authorisation for any one director to execute all steps needed to complete the proposal, notably: – Applying to The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited for the withdrawal of PUBLIC FIN HOLD’s listing once the Scheme becomes effective. – Effecting the capital reduction and allotment of the replacement shares. – Consenting, on the company’s behalf, to any court-imposed modifications or additions to the Scheme.

Administrative arrangements:

• Shareholders may appoint one or more proxies; completed proxy forms must reach Tricor Investor Services Limited by 10:30 a.m. on 21 November 2026 (48 hours before the SGM). • The share register will close for transfers at 4:30 p.m. on 17 November 2026 to determine SGM voting eligibility. • All resolutions will be decided by poll in accordance with Listing Rule 13.39(4).

The board currently comprises three Non-Executive Directors (Lai Wan, Quah Poh Keat, Lee Huat Oon), one Executive Director (Chong Yam Kiang), and three Independent Non-Executive Directors (Lee Chin Guan, Lim Chao Li, Phe Kheng Peng). The directors collectively accept responsibility for the accuracy of the disclosed information.
