Simcere Pharmaceutical Group Limited announced on 22 May 2026 that its Circular and Notice of Annual General Meeting have been published in both English and Chinese on the company’s website (www.simcere.com) and the HKEXnews platform (www.hkexnews.hk). Printed copies will be dispatched free of charge upon written or email request to the share registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wan Chai, Hong Kong.

Concurrent with the release, Simcere confirmed full implementation of electronic dissemination of all future corporate communications in accordance with Listing Rules 2.07A and 2.07B, the Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622) and the company’s Articles of Association. The move follows Hong Kong’s expanded paperless listing regime that became effective on 31 December 2023.

Key arrangements include: • All statutory documents—annual and interim reports, meeting notices, circulars, listing documents and proxy forms—will be provided online only, unless a shareholder specifically requests a hard copy. • Non-registered shareholders must supply a functional email address to their bank, broker, custodian, nominee or HKSCC Nominees Limited to receive electronic notifications. Without an email address on record, these investors must check the aforementioned websites proactively for updates. • Investors preferring printed communications can submit a reply form or email request detailing name, address and the desired format to simcere.ecom@computershare.com.hk.

Shareholders with questions can contact Simcere’s hotline at +86 (25) 8556 6666 during business hours, Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays).
