The Board of Directors ("Board") recognises and values the importance of the sustainable performance of Ying Li International Real Estate Limited ("Ying Li" or the "Company" and together with its subsidiaries, the "Group") and oversight of all environmental, social and governance ("ESG") matters, including without limitation to this Ying Li Sustainability Report 2025 ("SR" or the "Report"), various ESG policies, stakeholder engagement and climate change. In order to ensure the material impacts of Ying Li are covered, the Board has the responsibility to regularly review, monitor and evaluate material ESG issues.
Reporting ScopeYing Li publishes sustainability reports on an annual basis and they are included in Ying Li's Annual Reports ("AR").
The Report summarises Ying Li's sustainability performance from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025 (the "Reporting Period"). To ensure the completeness and comparability of the Report, it also includes events that occurred prior to the Reporting Period. The Report encompasses the operations and activities in Singapore headquarters and Chongqing offices, as well as investment properties and sales properties1
Reporting Standards and PrinciplesThis Report has been prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative ("GRI") Standards, the Listing Manual of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited ("SGX-ST") (Rules 711A, 711B and Practice Note 7.6 Sustainability Reporting Guide), and Rule 13.91 and Appendix C2 Environmental, Social and Governance Reporting Guide of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("SEHK")2
The GRI is widely recognised as a global standard for sustainability reporting. During the preparation for this SR, we applied the GRl's principles for defining the content and quality of the Report by considering the Group's activities, impacts, key expectations and interests of its stakeholders.
The seven principles listed below have been followed in this Report:
Stakeholder InclusivenessWe consider the interests of a wide range of stakeholders, mainly shareholders, investors, employees, customers, contractors and suppliers, and regulatory authorities.
Materiality Through a materiality assessment, we identify the environmental, social and governance-related topics that are most important to us and our stakeholders, and these are reliably reflected in this SR. Sustainability ContextApart from material environmental, social and governance-related factors, we also consider potential contribution to fight climate change.
Completeness We incorporated material topics, topic boundaries, significant impacts and stakeholder feedbacks into this SR while adhering to the six other reporting principles to enhance its completeness. Quantitative We are committed to quantifying the data accurately with clarification as far as practicable. Balance We present the positive and negative aspects of our business in a transparent manner. Consistency We adhere to the same reporting approach as the previous year to ensure clarity and comparability for our readers.Including portions of Ying Li International Financial Centre (IFC)/Ying Li IMIX Park Jiefangbei (IMIX Park JFB), Ying Li International Plaza/Ying Li IMIX Park Daping (IMIX Park Daping), Ying Li International Hardware and Electrical Centre (IEC), San Ya Wan Phase 2 (Lion City Garden). For the avoidance of doubt, all ESG data related to the activities of tenants and sold properties' occupants are not included in the Report.
As Ying Li is a subsidiary company of China Everbright Limited (CEL, 0165.HK). this Report also follows SEHK's rules in providing supplementary ESG information to support CEL's ESG disclosure obligations.
We warmly welcome your feedback on the Report and our sustainability-related approaches. Please share them with us through email to ir@yingligj.com.
Our AR and SR are accessible through our corporate website: https://www.yingligj.com/ar.

The Group acknowledges and values stakeholder perspectives on its ESG performance. To ensure its sustainability strategy is both relevant and impactful, the Group has engaged an independent third-party consultant to identify material sustainability issues based on their importance and relevance to the business. This was followed by a stakeholder survey gathering feedback from employees, contractors, suppliers, customers, regulators, shareholders, and investors to validate and refine these priorities.
The materiality assessment process is summarised as below:
Identify
Rate
Prioritise
Validate
Identifying material ESG Issues Rating the significance Prioritising material issues Validating the result
21 material issues have been identified by reference to the GRI Standards,
international trends and peer benchmarking, reflecting the dynamic operating environment of the Group.
The actual and potential impacts from the identified ESG issues are determined through an online questionnaire, covering internal and external stakeholders to gather their insights into the significance of ESG issues and their associated impacts.
A materiality matrix is developed based on two key dimensions: "importance to stakeholders" and "relevance to the Group" to provide a comprehensive overview of the prioritisation of material issues.
The result of the materiality assessment is then reviewed and approved by the Board, which serve as a crucial reference for the disclosures in the Report and long-
term sustainability strategy development.

Metrics and Targets
Ying Li tracks and reports on our water withdrawal, waste generation, energy consumption, Scope 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions and their respective intensities at our Singapore and Chongqing offices as well as investment properties and sales properties that are under the Group's direct operational control. For further information on our performance in managing our carbon footprint and other environmental indicators, please refer Appendix A: Sustainability Scorecard. Regarding the Group's dedicated targets on carbon reduction, please refer Sustainability Targets section.
Moving forward in our sustainability journey, the Group will continue to explore more detailed procedures to ensure alignment with both the TCFD recommendations and SGX-ST's phased approach guidelines.
GHG EmissionsThe Group takes a proactive measure in contributing to PRC government's goals of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060 and the Singapore Green Plan 2030. We have developed a comprehensive set of action plans that aim to promote green and low-carbon transformation while enhancing energy efficiency.
Recognising that GHG emissions are a primary driver of climate change, and a significant portion of our emissions arises from purchased electricity used in our managed properties. To address this, we integrate innovative design features, deploy energy-efficient technologies, and implement smart building management systems to optimise energy use and minimise emissions.
In line with our low-carbon strategy, the Group has completely transited its official vehicles to plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, prioritising pure electric mode for daily commuting and significantly reducing fuel consumption. By 2025, the vehicles achieved zero carbon emissions during operation, marking a concrete step forward in decarbonising our corporate transportation activities and providing solid support towards our carbon reduction targets.

IMIX PARK DAPING ENERGY TRANSFORMATION PROJECTTo enhance the energy efficiency, Ying Li IMIX Park Daping continued to advance its "Central Air-Conditioning Energy-saving Transformation" project in 2025. The introduction of the SmartEco intelligent energy control system has yielded significant results, saving approximately 65.66 tonnes of standard coal in electricity consumption, equivalent to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 163.66 tonnes. The project has resulted in energy cost savings of approximately RMB123,800 in 2025. Using this project as a benchmark, we are now scaling these successful practices across its broader portfolio of asset management initiatives, continuously contributing to the transition towards a low-carbon economy.
Besides, IMIX Park Daping is actively planning to purchase green power in 2026, increasing its share of renewable energy and effectively reducing indirect carbon emissions associated with grid-supplied electricity, optimising electricity costs while supporting the overall energy conservation and emission reduction targets.
The Group remains committed to exploring energy-saving opportunities by leveraging cutting-edge technology, capitalising the huge development potential of the "carbon neutral" business, and realising the strategic transformation towards becoming a green and low-carbon company.
Energy UsageRecognising that energy consumption is a major source of the Group's GHG emissions, we strive to enhance energy management by implementing energy-saving measures and promoting sustainable practices among employees and tenants. To regulate energy use, properties under the Group's management adhere to the established Energy Management Policy (能源管理制度), ensuring efficient energy use based on operational needs.
Ying Li has adopted energy-saving measures in different operations to improve the energy efficiency:
Flexible Energy Use
IMIX Park JFB and IMIX Park Daping have developed the Power Restriction Plan in Summer (夏天限 电计划方案) and Air-conditioning Energy Efficiency Plan in Winter (冬季空调节能计划), striving to minimise energy loss and optimise energy management.
Energy Efficient Design
We have integrated energy-efficient features into our building design, including proper insulation, ventilation with exhaust heat recycling, and recycled water systems for air conditioning to maximise heating, ventilation, and cooling efficiency. Smart lighting and LED luminaires are also installed to reduce unnecessary lighting.

Power-conserving signs are placed in prominent office spaces and public areas to encourage staff to save electricity. Our internal policy mandates lights and equipment to be turned off when not in use, and adopt energy-efficient appliances to replace low-efficiency, high-energy devices.
Tenant
Education
We regularly update tenants on energy-saving tips through various channels, explaining the property's energy-efficient features and measures and offer technical advice on reducing consumption when needed.
Water ResourcesYing Li recognises the critical importance of water stewardship in sustainable operations. We are committed to the efficient use, conservation, and responsible management of water resources across our portfolio. We perform regular inspections of our drainage systems to ensure the effective functioning of drainage and sedimentation facilities, preventing soil erosion, sewage, and waste water from directly contaminating nearby rivers or water bodies.
At our managed properties and offices, water-efficient fittings and water meters have been installed to allow regular monitoring and ensure that all usage is tracked and reported. In case of any unusual variation or incidents, we ensure that the equipment can be fixed immediately to avoid unnecessary water consumption. Besides, water-conservation guidelines and slogans are posted in common areas to increase the awareness among employees, tenants, customers, and communities.
Waste ManagementThe Group strictly complies with the Law of the People's Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution by Solid Waste and other applicable environmental regulations. We are committed to minimising waste generation and maximising diversion from landfills through a comprehensive and responsible approach to waste management. All non-hazardous operational waste is segregated at source and collected by category. We work exclusively with qualified, licensed partners to ensure compliant, environmentally sound collection, recycling, or disposal of all waste streams.
Paper waste constitutes the largest portion of office waste in our operations. We extend the mindset of responsible procurement throughout our operations. For instance, all the office paper purchased is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council. We also encourage our staff to consider environmentally friendly options when purchasing other office supplies. Besides, our offices have introduced the use of online servers where all office documents and information can be accessed via laptops and electronic devices. However, where printing is required, our offices have put up posters to encourage our staff to use black and white printing, double-sided printing and recycled paper for internal documents printing wherever possible.
TREE PLANTING ACTIVITYThe Party Branch of Ying Li has partnered with the Party Branch of Hutou Village in Beibei District to jointly carry out tree-planting and ecological-restoration activities, while also engaging in dialogue to explore approaches to rural governance. As part of this initiative, 50 trees were planted, demonstrating our commitment to environmental stewardship and support for rural communities.

We believe that a fair evaluation framework fosters excellence, retains valuable talent, and motivates continuous improvement, contributing to both organisational and individual growth.

Occupational Health and SafetyAt Ying Li, health and safety of our staff is of paramount importance to our business operations. We maintain strict compliance with all relevant laws and regulations, including the Work Safety Law of the PRC and the Workplace Safety and Health Act of Singapore, ensuring a secure, stable, and safe working environment for all employees and contractors. To institutionalise this commitment, we have implemented a comprehensive Safety and Equipment Management Policy (公司安全生产管理制度) alongside Emergency Response System for Incidents (突发事件应急处理制度), forming a multi-tiered, dynamic mechanism that proactively identifies, assesses, and mitigates workplace hazards, enabling timely intervention and continuous improvement in safety performance. There were no major incidents or confirmed incidents of non-compliance with relevant laws or regulations in our operations during the Reporting Period.
Key components of our safety measures include:
02
01
Regular InspectionsMonthly and quarterly inspections are conducted to systematically identify potential hazards across all work areas, evaluate associated risk levels, and verify the effectiveness of existing control measures.
Specialised InspectionsSpecialised inspections are organised in the event of material changes, such as equipment upgrades, operational modifications, or heightened societal risks, so as to conduct targeted risk assessments and implement timely safeguards.
03
Emergency Response SystemA formal Emergency Response System is in place, which clearly defines response protocols, roles, and mitigation measures for major risks, ensuring rapid and effective control during emergencies.
The Group is committed to the highest safety standards in construction and renovation projects, aiming to eliminate fatalities and serious injuries. To extend our commitment towards contractors, we provide mandatory safety training and enforce strict safety management through our Engineering Management Policy (工程管理制度), outlining clear health and safety requirements. Designated teams will conduct regular monitoring and reporting to proactively address potential risks and prevent accidents regarding the construction work, including renovations and alterations.
To strengthen safety preparedness, the Group has delivered seasonal fire safety training during summer and winter to all employees, as well as organised relevant safety personnel to participate in hands-on emergency simulation training at the Chongqing Science and Technology Museum, covering fire, earthquake, and other natural disaster scenarios.
WINTER FIRE SAFETY TRAININGOn 6 November 2025, during the national Fire Safety Awareness Month, Ying Li invited certified fire safety instructors to deliver a comprehensive fire safety training session for all employees. The training focused on common fire and electrical hazards in daily life and the workplace. Through a combination of real-life case studies, vivid incident analyses, and hands-on demonstrations, participants learned to identify risks, avoid dangerous practices, and apply practical fire prevention and emergency response techniques, significantly enhancing their ability to spot hazards, mitigate risks, and respond effectively in emergencies.
Employee Benefits and Wellness
The Group values employee welfare and well-being to create a positive and productive working environment. The Group has established a robust compensation and benefit mechanism to motivate employees while also recognising employee contributions. We regularly review and enhance our Company Compensation and Benefit Management Policy (公司薪酬福利管理 制度) to ensure its effectiveness and to stay competitive with market standards.
Ying Li places great emphasis on meeting the needs of our female employees and fully complies with the relevant laws and regulations, such as the Special Rules on the Labour Protection of Female Employees. In accordance with the law, we offer maternity leave, maternity allowances, breastfeeding arrangements and various other benefits that enable them to achieve a better work-life balance while fulfilling their family responsibilities.
In addition, the Group is committed to creating an inclusive, open-minded, and compassionate workplace that supports our employees in times of need. We make continual efforts to enhance their well-being by fostering team unity through various activities, such as periodic employee gatherings during major festivals and birthday celebrations. We strive to promote work-life balance and improve both our employees' physical and mental health.
OUR SUPPLY CHAIN Supply Chain ManagementYing Li recognises that a responsible and resilient supply chain is integral to sustainable business success. To uphold high standards of integrity, transparency, and sustainability, we have established clear expectations for all partners through our Supplier Management Policy (供方管理制度) and Bidding and Procurement Management Policy (公司招标采购管理 制度). To actively prevent anti-competitive and monopolistic practices, all procurement processes should prioritise open tendering to broaden the supplier pool. During bid evaluation, special attention is given to detecting and rigorously addressing collusive behaviours such as bid rigging and collusion. Any confirmed cases are immediately invalidated, and legal accountability measures are pursued without exception.
We are also actively embedding sustainability into our supply chain management by gradually incorporating ESG considerations into supplier selection, evaluation, and performance reviews, strengthening our suppliers' capacity to align with the Group's sustainability development and direction.
In line with our commitment to localised operations and regional synergy, Ying Li places strong emphasis on building local supply chains. This approach not only enhances supply chain resilience and operational efficiency but also actively contributes to the growth of local industries and economies. By prioritising local sourcing, we strengthen community ties and support sustainable regional development. In 2025, the Group collaborated with more than 150 suppliers who have made significant contributions to the Group.
