Letter from the Chairman
   In the past year, the global challenges of climate change have become increasingly severe and urgent.
   At the same time, technological advancements are focusing more on digitalization, intelligence, and
   decarbonization. There is a growing interest among stakeholders in sustainable development and ESG-
   related performance, which raises higher demands for transparency in our operations and ESG
   disclosures. Against this backdrop, we have been actively and decisively embracing these changes in
   our own way, always viewing ESG and sustainability issues from the perspective of growth and
   opportunity and vigorously driving our corporate responsibility and sustainability work.
   We have enhanced decision-making efficiency and transparency by building and upgrading our
   corporate governance structure. In 2023, we strengthened our internal controls and business ethics. We
   always practice the people-centric philosophy and have strategically invested in DEI (Diversity, Equity,
   and Inclusion) initiatives. In 2023, our employee dormitory came into operation, providing integrated
   services of accommodation, dining, and leisure for over a thousand employees. We have invested
   significant resources to ensure comprehensive protection for our employees, including professional
   development, health and safety, and various incentives.
   We proudly ranked among the top 50 innovative companies in Forbes China in 2023, continued to
   increase our R&D investment, and enhanced our drive for innovation, achieving new breakthroughs in
   our fields of photovoltaic materials, electronic materials, and functional films. We are actively pushing for
   the development of digital, intelligent, and green concepts and technologies, improving the efficiency of
   corporate production and operations, enhancing creativity and competitiveness, and providing reliable
   products and services.
   Looking ahead, we will remain committed to the business tenet of "innovative technology for the future"
   and our core mission of being a technology leader in the industry. Leveraging our advantages in the PV
   industry, we will promote the integrated use of solar energy in various forms to actively support the
   national "dual carbon" goals and foster the development of green and sustainable endeavors. We will
   further explore fields with broad growth prospects, such as electronic material and water treatment
   material, focusing on the independent R&D and industrialization of high-polymer new materials, and
   strive to promote technological innovation and application in the global clean energy industry.

The development of innovative technologies has always been the primary driving force behind our
sustainable development. Whether in the photovoltaic materials business or other new materials ventures,
each technological breakthrough we've achieved in over two decades of industrial exploration stems from
persistent R&D and innovation. This has established us as a technology innovation enterprise with a
profound R&D DNA.
As of December 31, 2023, our R&D technical staff numbered 701, with approximately 17% holding
master's degrees or higher. The proportion of R&D technical staff to the total number of employees is
about 15%. We always prioritize R&D investment. In the fiscal years of 2021, 2022, and 2023, the
cumulative R&D investment amounted to RMB 454 million, RMB 645 million, and RMB 792 million,

Water Conservation
                      Source Management
                      We analyze the current exploitation of water resources, the rationality of water usage,
                      potential impacts, and protective measures in our operational regions, taking
                      reasonable water extraction measures post-assessment. Continuous monitoring of
                      water use risks and emergency planning are conducted to ensure water resources
                      can support our long-term growth. In 2023, our fresh water extraction amounted to
                      approximately 928,200 tons.
                      Water Conservation and Discharge Reduction
                      We segregate wastewater into industrial and domestic categories, each treated
                      accordingly. Industrial wastewater, mainly from production line cooling, equipment
                      cleaning, and floor maintenance, is fully recycled when possible, with non-recyclable
                      wastewater treated to meet standards before discharge. Domestic wastewater is
                      disposed of through municipal sewage networks. In 2023, we discharged
                      approximately 266,000 tons of wastewater.
                      Water Conservation Case: Recirculating Water Quality Control to Reduce Wastewater
                      Previously, our cooling tower open-loop recirculating system had high water
                      consumption, with scaling from calcium and magnesium ions, as well as bacteria and
                      algae growth affecting cooling exchange and corroding pipes. We addressed this by
                      using softened water for make-up and controlling conductivity, which reduced scaling
                      and wastewater discharge, saving water.
                        Product Innovation
                       Leveraging our capabilities in high-polymer material research and manufacturing, we
                       developed a range of membrane support fabrics for water purification with various
                       weights, thicknesses, and permeabilities. These materials, used for reverse osmosis,
                       nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, and microfiltration membranes, are widely applied in
                       seawater desalination, industrial pure water production, municipal and industrial
                       wastewater treatment, and household water purification, fundamentally enhancing

Response to Climate Change
The main energy consumed in our production process is
electricity, and in 2023 we consumed about 512 million kWh.
By the end of 2023, we have 37.59MW photovoltaic power
stations, which is equivalent to a reduction of 45,000 tons of
carbon dioxide emissions through it if we calculate the coal
consumption per kilowatt hour. In 2023, the sales volume of
our PV film reached 2.249 billion square meters, which is
able to produce 237GW PV modules. Based on the coal
consumption of kilowatt hour electricity, about 236 million
tons of carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced through
the produced PV modules.

Employee Training and Development
"Qingteng" Program
To enhance the overall capabilities of our middle management team, we
launched the "Qingteng" program. We employed external experts to deliver
lectures, providing comprehensive and multi-angle knowledge training and
practice transformation for our management staff. The project focuses on
"goal-setting," "scheme-building", "implementation-grasping," and "results-
sharing" and offers practical workshops to provide hands-on training. This
approach encourages active participation in learning and addresses actual
workrelated key points. This leads to improved enterprise performance and
the accomplishment of annual business objectives.
"Qingmiao" Program
Employees can systematically learn management knowledge, such as safety,
quality, lean production, and team management. We have also organized
various activities, such as reading-sharing meetings, standard study tours,
and outdoor activities. In addition, we also set up growth courses to enable
employees to better engage in work and study and make their ability
improved throughout their lives. Employees acquire a broad range of
management knowledge and apply it effectively to improvement projects
through the combination of theory and practice.
"Xinya" Program
"Xinya" program offers basic courses such as corporate culture, quality,
product knowledge, safety. And occupational courses like occupational
communication, career development are also offered. These learning
courses are combined with online cloud university courses and practical
activities in order to make the fresh graduate to quickly adapt to the company,
their position. This program also offers a platform for the participants to
communicate their knowledge.
Team Leader Program
To improve the management concept, knowledge, skills, and professional
quality of each workshop foreperson and promote and drive the overall
quality of the production workshop staff, we organized the personnel
training project for the first-line foreman. The project trained and taught the
craftsmanship spirit, leadership, optimistic attitude, practical communication
skills, and other aspects of the front-line team leaders. Meanwhile, all front-
line team leaders were required to carry out transfer training for front-line
employees, and a total of 341 times of transfer training were implemented
to learn and grow together.

Social Responsibility
FIRST is driven by a sense of mission and responsibility. Beyond generating profits and meeting legal obligations to
shareholders and employees, we also uphold responsibilities towards consumers, communities, and the environment.
Our focus extends beyond profit to the value of people in production processes, emphasizing contributions to the
environment, consumers, and society at large, and the fulfillment of corporate social responsibilities to contribute to
societal well-being. We actively fulfilled our social responsibilities during the reporting period and donated RMB 2.04

Tax Contributions
Lawful tax payment is a duty for every enterprise and citizen. We take our tax
planning seriously, continually enhancing our tax risk management,
strengthening administrative efforts, and perfecting our risk control mechanisms.

Charity and Philanthropy
Charitable work involves aiding the weak and impoverished, a voluntary
endeavor to enhance human welfare. We are committed to charitable causes,
supporting vulnerable groups, and making donations to various public welfare
organizations through platforms like the Red Cross, Charity Federation, and
education funds, increasing welfare for the disadvantaged.

systems, buying agricultural products from Baiyu County, Sichuan for poverty

Enterprises benefit from and influence their communities, which are vital for
