the profit distribution plan was considered and approved by the annual general meeting for 2023 of the company on 22 may 2024.

2. target for distribution:
all shareholders of the company whose names appear on the register of members maintained by china securities depository and clearing corporation limited shanghai branch ("csdc shanghai branch") as of the afternoon of the equity record date upon the close of business of the shanghai stock exchange.
in accordance with the provisions of the self-disciplinary supervision guideline for listed companies of the shanghai stock exchange no. 7 - repurchase of shares, the shares of the company deposited in the special securities account for repurchase will not be involved in the profit distribution.
3. differentiated dividend transfer plan:
(1) differentiated dividend plan
the company proposes to distribute a cash dividend of rmb3.0410 (tax inclusive) per 10 shares to all shareholders (except for the company's special securities account for repurchase) for year 2023, based on the total share capital registered on the equity record date for the implementation of equity distribution, less the balance of the shares in the company's special securities account for repurchase on the equity record date. if, prior to the equity record date for the implementation of equity distribution, there is a change in the company's share capital available for profit distribution as a result of the repurchase and cancellation of shares under equity incentives, changes in shares repurchased by the company, additional shares issued in a private offering or changes in shares under a major asset restructuring, the company proposes to keep the proportion of distribution per share unchanged and adjust the total amount of the distribution accordingly.
during the period from the announcement date of the 2023 profit distribution plan to the equity record date for the implementation of equity distribution, the company conducted share repurchase through the trading system of shanghai stock exchange by way of centralized bidding transactions; up to now, the company has completed the repurchase, and the number of shares in the company's special securities account for repurchase is 121,119,984 shares.
the equity distribution is based on the total share capital of 2,271,594,206 shares as at the equity record date as determined in the implementation announcement, and after deducting the number of shares in the company's special securities account for repurchase of 121,119,984 shares, the actual number of shares participating in the cash distribution is 2,150,474,222 shares. the cash dividend payable will be rmb0.3041 per share (tax inclusive), totaling a cash dividend of rmb653,959,210.91 (tax inclusive), representing 175.58% of the net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company for the year.
(2) basis for treatment of differentiated dividend (ex-dividend) and formula for calculating the same
in accordance with the relevant regulations of the shanghai stock exchange, the company calculates the ex-dividend opening reference price in accordance with the following formula:
ex-dividend reference price = (previous closing price - cash dividend) ÷ (1 percentage of changes in outstanding shares)
according to the profit distribution plan approved by resolutions at the company's 2023 annual general meeting, the company will only distribute cash dividends. no bonus shares will be awarded and no capital reserves will be converted into share capital. therefore, there will be no change in the company's outstanding shares, and the percentage of changes in outstanding shares will be zero.
cash dividend per share = total share capital participating in the distribution × actual cash dividend per share ÷ total share capital = 2,150,474,222 × 0.3041 ÷ 2,271,594,206 ≈ rmb0.2879 per share.
the ex-dividend reference price for the calculation of the company's equity distribution = rmb(previous closing price - 0.2879) per share.
