Shanghai Gench Education Group Limited has formally transitioned to electronic dissemination of all Corporate Communications in line with the Hong Kong Stock Exchange’s paperless listing requirements effective 31 December 2023. Future documents—including annual and interim reports, notices of meeting, circulars and proxy forms—will be uploaded in both English and Chinese to the company website (www.genchedugroup.com) and the HKExnews portal (www.hkexnews.hk). Printed copies of non-actionable materials will be issued only on shareholder request.

Actionable Corporate Communications—documents that require shareholder instructions—will be sent individually by email. Where no functional email address is on file, printed versions will be dispatched by post. Shareholders are encouraged to complete and return a reply form or email ir@gench.edu.cn to provide or update contact details; each instruction remains valid for one year from receipt.

Under the company’s articles of association, any notice placed on the designated websites is deemed served on the first day of publication unless otherwise specified by the Listing Rules. Shareholders may change their preferred method of receipt at any time by written notice to the investor relations address at N510, Library Building, Shanghai Jian Qiao University, No. 1111 Huchenghuan Road, Pudong New Area, Shanghai, China, or via the above-mentioned email.

The board, chaired by Zhao Donghui, issued the notification on 10 April 2026 and invited shareholders with queries to contact the company through the published investor relations channels.
