Actively Advocating for the Industry's Green Transition
Anker Innovations is strongly advocating for sustainable transformation including the adoption of unified charging standards to
help reduce e-waste and greatly improve energy efficiency as consumers charge and use their products.Advocating for the Unified USB-C Port
Since 2018 we have publicly advocated for the adoption of the unified USB-C port. Anker Innovations clearly anticipated that
"compatibility" would enable the interoperability of multiple brands and devices thereby reducing customers' need for various
charging ports and repetitive purchases. This adoption also enhances the reusability of chargers reducing waste generation
and saving resources. In September 2023 Apple Inc. embraced this eco-friendly trend by introducing the iPhone 15 series
with USB-C ports. By 2024 Apple had prioritized standardizing its accessory ecosystem and many upstream and downstream
manufacturers followed suit by adopting the USB-C standard strengthening the industrial ecosystem's development. This
initiative resonates with Anker Innovations' commitment to innovation and sustainability.Technology Propels the Enhancement of Product Anker Prime Multi-Device Fast Charging Lineup

[1] PCR (Post-Consumer Recycled) materials also known as recycled materials refer to the waste generated in circulation consumption and
use that can be restored to a performance level close to that of the original material through physical or chemical recycling processes. They can
be reintegrated into production as valuable industrial raw materials. Taking recycled plastics as an example their application has significantly
reduced the dependence on virgin plastics effectively achieving the regeneration and recycling of resources which is of great significance for
promoting the development of the circular economy.Anker MagGo Wireless Charging Station (Foldable 3-in-1)

material innovation reflects our firm commitment to the continuous pursuit of environmental protection principles. In the future
we will continue to use eco-friendly materials reduce packaging waste pollution and actively promote sustainable development.Reduction of Single-Use Plastics
In 2024 we have greatly minimized the use of single-use plastics and continuously addressed the challenges of eliminating
plastics from packaging. For new products in the mobile charging and headphone categories over 80% of the packaging
uses paperboard or pulp trays instead of disposable plastic trays saving 150 tons of plastic. To avoid the use of plastic in the
