Share Repurchase and Cancellation to Enhance Shareholder Returns
In July 2024 in proactive compliance with the New National Nine Guidelines' call for listed companies to cancel
repurchased shares Willfar Information revised the designated use of 8.31 million shares held in the special repurchase
account. The purpose was changed from “reserved for employee stock ownership plans or equity incentives” to “cancellation with corresponding registered capital reduction." The share cancellation procedures were duly completed in
September 2024 effectively enhancing earnings per share and strengthening shareholder return on investment.According to the requirements of the Listing Rules of SSE STAR Market which stipulates that “cash consideration paidfor share repurchases via centralized bidding followed by cancellation shall be included in cash dividend calculations"
the RMB 200 million share cancellation (calculated at average repurchase price) elevates total cash distributions and
share repurchase to RMB 900 million. This significantly exceeds the RMB 610 million net IPO proceeds unequivocally
demonstrating our execution capability in delivering shareholder returns.WILLFAR INFORMATION

water-saving policies. To enhance water resource utilization and reduce wastewater generation we have adopted a series of
measures:
Water-Saving Strategy
Carry out water-saving promotional activities advocate for multi-purpose water usage and tiered water supply
systems and cultivate awareness of water conservation
Optimize equipment and processes adopt efficient cooling systems and water recycling systems to reduce exces-
sive consumption of water resources
Establish scientific water use indicators and assessment mechanisms to promptly identify and rectify issues
related to water waste
Introduce water-saving technologies and devices such as water-saving cleaning processes and water recycling
systems to improve water resource utilization efficiency
1.3 Emission Management
We recycle 100% of our production wastewater and the discharged wastewater
primarily consists of domestic sewage. During the reporting period we established
a comprehensive wastewater treatment facility and all tested items of theWaste discharged waste water met the Grade III standards of the“ Integrated WastewaterWater Discharge Standard” (GB8978-1996).The waste gas generated by the Company is mainly welding fumes. The welding
fumes produced during the welding process is collected centrally using centrifugal
ventilators Subsequently the collected fumes are treated through activated
carbon adsorption to remove pollutants before being discharged in compliance Integrated waste water
Waste Gas with relevant standards. treatment facility
In addition we regularly monitor the exhaust emissions of our company-ownedvehicles to ensure that the emissions comply with the “Integrated EmissionStandard of Air Pollutants” (GB16297—1996)
We have formulated the Waste Management Measures to classify and process the
waste generated during the production process.Waste General waste: including packaging boxes paper old books and magazines scrap

The integration of distributed new energy into distribution networks has far-reaching impacts making grid
topology more complex and operating modes more variable. The coordinated interaction of new energy
load and energy storage demands new approaches to protection configuration and principles while also
raising the bar for the operation and maintenance of distribution network protection equipment. To meet
these challenges distribution automation devices—such as DTUs (Distribution Terminal Units) FTUs (Feeder
