A multi-level internal controlstructure comprising the Board of Directors, the Board of Supervisors, and the Audit Committee has beenestablished, and the Internal Control Management Measures have been formulated. With ERP, MES, and EAP systemsat the core, we have integrated the entire data loop across the supply chain, production, and customer service,driving a transition from "experience-driven" to "data-driven" business decision-making.Achieving a full breakthrough from low-carbon operations to a circular economy through energyconservation, consumption reduction, and green developmentWe are committed to "peaking carbon emissions by 2025 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2050", continuouslytracking, assessing, and updating short-term, medium-term, and long-term environmental performance goals eachyear. Under the guidance of the "carbon peaking and carbon neutrality (dual carbon)" goals, Kinwong will makesustained efforts to build a carbon-reduction system covering the full lifecycle of "production–products–supplychain" with a focus on the building of green factories.
In 2024, Kinwong successively launched the integrated photovoltaic, energy storage, and power consumptionproject and the photovoltaic power generation project at its production bases, while promoting distributedphotovoltaic projects, with a goal of installing 15 MW of photovoltaic capacity by 2026. We have carried outcentralized procurement of International Renewable Energy Certi?cates (I-RECs), corresponding to green electricityconsumption of 141,950 MWh, representing about 17.5% of our total electricity consumption. The Jiangxi XinfengHigh Layer Count PCB Intelligent Manufacturing Base was put into production in January 2025. This new baseemploys internationally advanced intelligent equipment and green processes, achieving visual management ande?cient resource utilization throughout the entire production process through the deep integration of the Internetof Things (IoT), big data, and artificial intelligence (AI), with an expected reduction in energy consumption perunit product by about 20% compared to traditional factories. Kinwong has conducted greenhouse gas emissionsveri?cation for three consecutive years and has proactively joined the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and theCarbon Disclosure Project (CDP).Furthermore, we have established and improved the long-term water conservation mechanism to e?ectively reducewater intake and improve water resource utilization e?ciency. In 2024, all production bases met the set quantitativewater conservation targets.

Kinwong's internal control system construction is based on its internal environment construction. The Company iscommitted to building an overall closed-loop management system guided by the results of risk assessment, usingvarious control measures as tools, information and communication as a bridge, and supervision and evaluation asdriving forces. The Company's internal control measures generally include incompatible duty separation control,authorization and approval control, accounting system control, asset protection control, budget control, operationalanalysis control, and performance evaluation control.In terms of risk assessment, we, by referring to the Guidelines on Enterprise-Wide Risk Management for CentralState-Owned Enterprises, have classi?ed risks into strategic, ?nancial, market, operational, legal, and compliancerisks based on internal realities. Using a risk matrix, we have assessed the risk level by mapping the "probability ofrisk occurrence" and "impact on goals after risk occurrence" as two dimensions on a coordinate plane (rectangularcoordinate system), with each dimension divided into ?ve levels. The "probability of risk occurrence" is judged bythe frequency of occurrence within a speci?c time frame, and the "impact on goals after risk occurrence" is assessedboth qualitatively and quantitatively, while considering the Company's scale, risk tolerance, and other factors.

and high-risk areas.
Checks and balances: Mutual constraints and supervision should be formed in aspects such as
governance structure, organizational setups, and the assignment of authorities and responsibilities, whilebalancing operational e?ciency.Adaptability: Internal control should be aligned with the scale, scope, competition, and risk level of the
business, and should be adjusted in a timely manner in response to changing conditions.
Cost-e?ectiveness: When conducting internal control, it is necessary to weigh the implementation cost
against the expected bene?ts to achieve e?ective control at an appropriate cost.Operability: Internal control should be aligned with the Company's actual conditions, consider the
feasibility in practical management, and ensure operability.Information feedback: The tasks and responsibilities of personnel related to control work in the

Handling Methods for Non-Conforming Products
Product Recall Management
When a batch of products is found to have defects, if the defect has no signi?cant impact onproduct quality or service performance, or if approval has been granted by the customer,the batch may be approved for release under Acceptance on Deviation (AOD). However, formedical products, the review of AOD must comply with relevant laws and regulations, and afunctional impact test report must be provided to ensure the safety and performance of theproduct.Temporary
Approval
We have established the Rework Operating Procedures, which stipulate that all rework tasksmust be documented on a Material Review Board (MRB) sheet, with the inspection resultsof the reworked products recorded. In particular, for reworks involving medical products,a functional impact test report and a rework impact analysis report are required to ensurethat the reworked products meet quality and safety standards.
Rework/Re-inspection
We have formulated the Scrapping Determination and Handling Procedures tostandardize the scrapping review process. Additionally, we analyze the scope ofnon-conforming products and assess their risks. For those of high-risk categories,batch scrapping will be conducted following the internal MRB process to ensureproduct safety and quality. For appearance and other distinguishable types ofdefects, the Rework Operating Procedures are applied for re-inspection, rework,or selection for scrapping.Scrapping
Timing Determination
If we discover that a batch of products exceeds hazardous substance limits or fails to meet quality standards,and these products are no longer under our control (e.g., already delivered or ownership has beentransferred), we will immediately initiate the recall process.
Corrective and Preventive ActionsWe conduct veri?cation tests, mock recalls, or actual recalls to validatethe e?ectiveness of the recall process, with results documented. Basedon these results, corrective and preventive measures are formulated.During an actual recall, we will address any issues in the recallprocedures and management system according to the recall report andtake necessary corrective and preventive measures as per theControlProcedures for Corrective and Preventive Actions.
Handling of Recalled ProductsRecalled products will be marked and isolated. They are treated as non-conforming productsand processed according to theControl Procedures for Non-Conforming Productsor theEnvironmental Material Management Procedures. Meanwhile, we will prepare a correspondingnon-conformance report, speci?cally indicating that these products are part of a recall.
