Since completing its business combination and listing in June 2025, the Company has focused on engineering, product certification and customer delivery and has not issued periodic operating updates. With this release, the Company is launching a program of periodic operating updates.

Growth Initiatives
The Company is developing three initiatives alongside its existing vehicle business. First, in December 2025, Scage (Hong Kong) Limited, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into an investment cooperation agreement with the Anci District People’s Government of Langfang, Hebei Province, for an integrated renewable power, hydrogen production and heavy-truck manufacturing project. Under the agreement, the project comprises three elements: (i) a heavy-truck and core component manufacturing base together with headquarters and research and development facilities, (ii) a hydrogen energy network project, and (iii) a wind-power green electricity and energy storage project. The district government is to allocate a 200 MW wind power quota in accordance with the requirements of higher-level government authorities, to provide energy supply support for the hydrogen energy network project that the Company plans to develop.
Second, in March 2026, Scage (Hong Kong) Limited, a subsidiary of the Company, acquired a 10% equity interest in Huangshan Tafu Intelligent Agricultural Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd., a company based in Huangshan, Anhui Province, that applies the Company’s L4 intelligent drive-by-wire chassis and autonomous driving technology to electric tractors.
Third, the Company is in the process of developing an overseas supply-chain model under which core components are exported for local assembly rather than exporting complete vehicles. The Company intends to describe its operating structure and each of its business lines more fully in a subsequent press release.
