Shenzhen Investment Holdings Bay Area Development Company Limited (BAY AREA DEV) has released its Interim Report for the six months ended 30 June 2026.

The English and Chinese versions of the document are now accessible on both the company’s publication site (https://sihbay.aconnect.com.hk) and the HKEXnews website. Registered shareholders that previously elected to receive hard copies will have already received the printed set.

In line with the paperless listing regime under HKEX Listing Rule 2.07A, effective 31 December 2023, BAY AREA DEV has formally adopted electronic dissemination for all future corporate communications. Key points of the new arrangement include:

• Future documents—annual and interim reports, meeting notices, circulars and proxy forms—will be available exclusively online unless a shareholder specifically requests hard copies.

• Shareholders wishing to continue receiving printed versions must submit a Reply Form or email request to the Hong Kong branch share registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited. Each request is valid for one year from receipt.

• To ensure timely alerts, investors are encouraged to supply a functional email address via a personalised QR code or by completing and returning the Reply Form. Without a valid email address, shareholders will need to monitor the company’s and HKEX’s websites themselves, and only actionable corporate communications will be mailed in hard copy.

• Printed copies of the current Interim Report remain available free of charge upon request.
