Combating Climate Change ActivelyThe climate change is a common challenge around the world. As a leading enterprise in the industry, Longcheer is always committed to continual contributions to global climate governance, and regards actively combating climatechange as its inherent requirement for realizing sustainable development and the responsibility for promoting the construction of human community with a shared future.Building an Organizational Structure of Climate GovernanceAnalysis of Climate Risks and OpportunitiesAccording to the framework proposal in the International Financial Reporting Standards for Sustainability DisclosureNo. 2 - Climate Related Disclosures (IFRS S2), Longcheer identi?es the risks and opportunities of climate change relatedto its own operation, actively formulates and improves climate risk prevention strategies, helping global climatechange governance and comprehensively promoting the company's sustainable development.Longcheer manages related matters of climate change by establishing the ESG governance structure and managementprocedures. We have the process and mechanism of climate-related risk management at the senior management level,de?ning the responsibilities of the management in assessing and managing climate risks, and strengthening climatechange management.The ESG Committee not only regularly reports ESG-related matters to the management of the company, but also isresponsible for implementing the daily management and implementation of climate-related risks and opportunities. Itactively promotes cross-departmental collaboration, guides various departments in identifying climate change-relatedrisks, and formulates and implements proactive and e?ective response measures.Longcheer continues to pay close attention to the impact of climate change on the company's business operations andsystematically organizes and identi?es climate change risks related to the company. To e?ectively address these risks,we have taken a series of targeted measures aimed at enhancing the company's adaptability and resilience to climatechange.
According to the definition of financial risks caused by the climate change, the company divides environmentalrisks into transition risks related to low-carbon economy and physical risks related to the impact of climate change.Longcheer identi?es and analyzes possible important risks and opportunities with reference to IFRS S2 and accordingto its business and industry attributes. With reference to the milestones of "carbon peaking in 2030 and carbonneutrality in 2060" planned by the government of China, the company classi?es the impact duration of climate risksand opportunities into short, medium and long term: 0-5 years for short term, 5-15 years for medium term and 15-30years for long term.

Supplier Compliance ManagementLongcheer has established a complete supplier compliance management system. We have built our full-lifecycle supplier management system SRM(Supplier Relationship Management), consisting of supplier introduction, on-site audits, contract and agreement management, performance appraisalmanagement, and supplier elimination. By doing so, we perform strict compliance management for suppliers, reducing risks and developing a moree?cient supply chain. In 2023, Longcheer had a total of 3,499 suppliers on hand. Among the suppliers that accounted for the top 90% of procurementspending, there were 135 direct suppliers.
To standardize the quarterly performance evaluation system for suppliers, and to re?ect the performance status and level of suppliers in the quarterin a comprehensive, systematic, and objective manner, Longcheer performs performance management on suppliers. We regularly carry out the baseassessment of suppliers in respect of quality, cost, delivery, and service. We urge suppliers that fail the appraisal to make recti?cation, and give priorityto suppliers with excellent appraisal results in new project cooperation.
For new suppliers, Longcheer has established theNew Supplier Quali?cation Certi?cation Process.The company requires that new suppliersmust pass ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 system certification, comply with industry or national standards, and ensure that their deliverables meetquality and environmental requirements. Longcheer requires new suppliers to complete the ATP capability analysis table evaluation, includingCSR audit. The Supplier Quality Management Department of Longcheer will conduct on-site certi?cation and scoring of each supplier audit, afterthe supplier self-assessment is completed.
For quali?ed suppliers that have been introduced, the company conducts performance appraisal of those satisfying the conditions quarterly,and applies the appraisal results to business projects and cooperation.
