The Statement of the Board
The company's Board of Directors has integrated ESG governance into its core decision-making framework
establishing a comprehensive four-tier ESG governance architecture encompassing "strategic decision - making
– oversight & evaluation – systematic management – operational execution ": The Board is responsible for
formulating overarching sustainability strategies and bears ultimate accountability for ESG outcomes; its subor-
dinate Strategy and ESG Committee focuses on medium-to-long-term planning and deliberation of critical issues
serving as a strategic think tank for the Board. As the permanent executive hub the Strategy and ESG Committee
leads target decomposition risk control and full-process supervision & evaluation while cross-departmental ESG
task forces drive operational implementation in areas like green operations and supply chain management. This
creates a closed-loop governance model of " strategic decision-making → systematic execution → business
integration" systematically strengthening the foundation for sustainable development.During the reporting period the Board of Directors systematically evaluated the materiality and prioritization of
ESG issues through targeted interviews questionnaire surveys and multi-stakeholder consultations. This process
focused on identifying core challenges impacting financial performance operational resilience and environmen-
tal / social value creation culminating in strategic recommendations. Weiming has fully integrated material ESG
risks into its enterprise risk management framework employing dynamic analysis of risk probability severity
and evolution trends to develop tailored mitigation strategies.To ensure alignment between ESG governance objectives and business practices the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors has strengthened its closed-loop oversight mechanism by reviewing risk assessment reports
tracking compliance reviews and monitoring the effectiveness of mitigation measures. Anchored to our ESG stra-
tegic objectives Weiming has established a Sustainable Development Action Framework across key dimensions
including climate change response resource circularity employee rights protection supply chain resilience and
governance efficiency. We also regularly reviewed the pathways to achieve these objectives through a dynamic
tracking mechanism: on the one hand using data-driven methods to identify performance improvement bottle-
necks and risk exposures and formulating iterative improvement plans; on the other hand integrating ESG risk
management into the entire process of business decision-making to establish a preventive control system covering
risk identification assessment and mitigation. Meanwhile based on international standards such as TCFD and GRI
as well as local regulatory requirements we established a standardized ESG information disclosure mechanism.By regularly publishing ESG (Environmental Social Governance) reports and quantifying performance bench-
marks in the reports we provided stakeholders with a panoramic disclosure of strategic deployments practical
achievements and value creation logic continuously strengthening the transparency of governance and the public
credibility of our responsibility.This report was approved by the Board of Directors on April 18 2025.Company Overview About Weiming
