On 15 September 2026, South Manganese Investment Limited released a shareholder notification confirming that the English and Chinese versions of its 2026 Interim Report are now accessible on both the company’s website (www.southmn.com) and the HKEXnews portal (www.hkexnews.hk).
Key points:
• Transition to e-delivery: In line with the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong’s paper-less listing regime under Listing Rule 2.07—effective since 31 December 2023—the company will distribute all future corporate communications exclusively through electronic channels unless shareholders specifically request hard copies.
• Shareholder action required: Investors who prefer printed documents must complete and return the enclosed reply form or email the Hong Kong share registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at southmanganese@computershare.com.hk. The preference remains valid for one year or until superseded.
• Email registration: Shareholders are encouraged to scan the personalized QR code on the reply form to provide a functional email address, enabling timely notification of new publications. Absent a valid email, investors will need to monitor the company and HKEXnews websites proactively, and will receive only actionable corporate communications in print.
• Cost-free printed copies: Upon request, printed versions of the interim report will be supplied free of charge.
Investor enquiries can be directed to the company hotline on +852 2179 1310 during business hours (Monday–Friday, 09:00–18:00, Hong Kong time).
The notification underscores South Manganese Investment’s commitment to environmental sustainability and regulatory compliance while maintaining streamlined communication with its shareholder base.
