Han’s Laser Achieves Dual ESG Governance Breakthroughs: Rating Upgrade and Responsible Procurement Award

Han’s Laser (002008.SZ) has achieved the Wind ESG A rating and has been awarded the 2026 Golden Bee Corporate Social Responsibility China List – ESG Competitiveness Model Award for Responsible Procurement, marking landmark progress in our sustainable development agenda.

Against a shifting industry landscape characterized by tightening regulatory norms and more rigorous ESG evaluation frameworks, these authoritative recognitions validate our long-term, principle-based governance paradigm. They further substantiate our strategic evolution from reactive compliance to purpose-led, strategy-driven sustainable value creation.

Leapfrog Upgrade in Wind ESG Rating Validates Our Sound Corporate Governance Performance

As of July 15, the latest Wind ESG rating results confirm that our ESG rating has advanced from BB to A. Han’s Laser now ranks 40th among 504 listed enterprises in the electronic equipment and instrumentation sector, representing a remarkable improvement from previous ranking of 185th out of 512 peers in 2025.

Within the Wind ESG rating methodology, an A-grade rating indicates superior corporate governance maturity, limited ESG risk exposure and robust sustainable development capacity. This independent assessment underscores the tangible progress delivered by Han’s Laser’s systematic, long-term investments in environmental stewardship, social accountability and institutional governance enhancement.

Notably, 2026 represents a pivotal year for the formal enforcement of targeted mandatory ESG disclosure rules applicable to A-share listed companies. Wind has concurrently updated its rating framework, with substantially higher thresholds for disclosure quality and sustainable development performance evaluation. In a market environment featuring rising compliance costs and stricter assessment criteria, our rating upgrade against industry trends reflects our sustainable, structurally embedded governance strength and forward-looking ESG deployment, rather than ad-hoc remedial adjustments. This differentiates our proactive ESG maturation from passive regulatory adherence.

Golden Bee Award for Responsible Procurement: Institutionalized Sustainable Supply Chain System Built from Concept to Practice

On June 2, at the 21st China Corporate Social Responsibility & ESG International Forum hosted by the Golden Bee Think Tank, Han’s Laser was bestowed with the ESG Competitiveness Model Award for Responsible Procurement. This award recognizes our industry-leading practices in sustainable supply chain management and responsible procurement. This prestigious honor acknowledges not only our operational improvements in procurement workflows, but also our successful embedding of ESG criteria across the full supply chain lifecycle as a core institutional practice.

Facing growing global supply chain volatility, heightened ESG compliance requirements and challenges in industrial synergy efficiency, we have established five strategic pillars for sustainable supply chain development: full-lifecycle governance, end-to-end ESG integration, digital empowerment, supply chain resilience and security, and ecosystem-based collaboration. Guided by this framework, we have built a mature sustainable supply chain system that aligns our commercial growth with social and environmental accountability.

We have institutionalized ESG obligations as binding contractual requirements throughout the entire supplier management lifecycle, including supplier onboarding, routine evaluation, performance appraisal and exit procedures. A market-aligned incentive mechanism that links quantitative ESG performance metrics with order allocation encourages our suppliers to continuously upgrade their environmental management, labor standard compliance, anti-corruption and other ESG-related performance. This collaborative governance model based on shared responsibilities and mutual value creation mitigates our supply chain risk exposure and transforms our responsible procurement from a cost-centric obligation into a strategic driver of long-term stakeholder value growth.

Anchoring Long-Term Value: Elevating ESG from a Management Tool to Our Core Strategic Foundation

The dual milestones of our upgraded ESG rating and national responsible procurement award mark a strategic paradigm shift for Han's Laser. We have moved beyond basic compliance-driven ESG management and entered a new phase of value-centric, sustainability-embedded corporate governance.

Moving forward, adhering to a long-term value philosophy and leveraging our core technological advantages in intelligent manufacturing, we will fully integrate ESG governance across our end-to-end value chain, covering R&D, procurement, production and global customer services. We will further deepen the synergy between green low-carbon transformation and digital intelligence upgrading. Capitalizing on the integration of artificial intelligence and advanced intelligent manufacturing, we will continue to refine our global sustainable supply chain layout. We strive to contribute to global high-quality industrial development and deliver scalable, replicable Chinese best practices for global industrial green transition.
