Foshan Haitian Flavouring and Food Company Ltd. has issued the agenda for its 2025 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting, to be held on 11 May 2026, and released key operating metrics for FY 2025.

Financial and Dividend Highlights • FY 2025 revenue rose 7.32% year-on-year to RMB28.87 billion; core condiment revenue grew 9.04% to RMB27.40 billion. • Net profit attributable to shareholders climbed 10.95% to RMB7.04 billion; profit after extraordinary items advanced 12.81% to RMB6.85 billion. • A final cash dividend of RMB0.80 per share (tax inclusive) is proposed, totalling RMB4.68 billion. Including interim and special payments already made, full-year cash dividends will reach RMB7.95 billion, equal to 112.95% of 2025 net profit and 70.79% of year-end parent-company retained earnings.

Capital Management • The board seeks authority to repurchase and cancel 779,900 A-shares remaining in the 2024 Employee Stock Ownership Scheme (ESOP) at RMB36.87 each, trimming share capital to 5.85 billion shares and registered capital to RMB5.85 billion. • A new 2026 A-share ESOP will be funded with RMB184.35 million (company-appropriated incentive funds) to acquire up to 5.00 million repurchased shares at RMB36.87 each. Total ESOP holdings will stay below 10% of share capital; no participant will exceed 1%. • Shareholders will vote on amending the Articles of Association to reflect the lower registered capital.

Governance and Other Proposals • Re-engagement of KPMG Huazhen LLP and KPMG as A- and H-share auditors, with fees capped at RMB6.22 million. • Purchase of directors’ and senior management liability insurance with annual premiums not exceeding RMB200,000 and cover up to RMB140 million. • Directors’ basic remuneration for 2026 set between RMB1.08 million and RMB3.50 million each, with at least 50% performance-linked. • Ordinary related-party transactions for 2026 are budgeted at up to RMB1.70 billion, covering raw and packaging materials, services, and equipment procurement primarily with Guangdong Haitian Group and its units.

Board Performance and Outlook The board reported that 2025 core categories—soy sauce, oyster sauce and flavour-enhancing sauces—delivered revenue of RMB14.93 billion, RMB4.87 billion and RMB2.92 billion respectively. Management highlighted ongoing investment of about 3% of annual sales in R&D, recognition of the Gaoming plant as the soy-sauce sector’s first global “Lighthouse Factory,” and continued overseas expansion following the company’s dual listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 2025.

Shareholder Registration H-share holders must be on the register by 11 May 2026 to vote and by 18 May 2026 to receive the final dividend, with the book close period set for 6–11 May and 15–18 May respectively.

All resolutions will be decided by poll at the forthcoming meeting.
