Environmental Governance
Built on the ISO 14001 environmental management systems, Hoshine Silicon has established a comprehensive environmental compliance framework across four dimensions: governance
structure, institutional system, oversight mechanism, and performance assurance. This integrated approach aligns environmental management with risk control and strategic development.
As of the end of the reporting period, 12 subsidiaries have obtained the ISO 14001 environmental management system certification. Two subsidiaries, namely Western Silicon Industry and
Alpha Semiconductor, have been awarded green factory certification. In 2025, the Company reported no material environmental violations.

Throughout operations, we adhere to the principle of “respecting nature and prioritizing protection”. All production sites are located away from biosphere reserves and op-
erate under strict environmental controls, with no material impact on surrounding ecosystems or communities. Meanwhile, we shoulder our responsibilities in ecological
conservation by promoting restoration through vegetation planting and the closure of idle landfill areas. We also conduct regular environmental monitoring across plant sites
and surrounding areas to ensure ecological safety.

Occupational Health and Safety
Hoshine Silicon strictly complies with relevant laws and regulations, including China’s Work Safety Law and the Law on the Prevention and Control of Occupational Diseases . The Company
has established a comprehensive safety management system and institutional framework, strengthened employee safety risk prevention and control mechanisms, and actively promoted a
strong safety culture. Through regular emergency drills and systematic hazard identification and mitigation initiatives, we safeguard employees’ occupational health and ensure production
safety, building a robust safety defense. As of the end of the reporting period, 14 subsidiaries had obtained ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System certification.
Governance
All business divisions have established organizational structures with clear hierarchies and well-defined roles and responsibilities. Building on this foundation, the Company has developed a
three-tier occupational health and safety (OHS) governance structure, comprising the decision-making, management, and execution levels. The framework clearly defines the authority and
responsibilities at each level, and streamlines cross-level and cross-departmental collaboration, forming an efficient, closed-loop management system.

The Company has established a series of management systems, including the Work Safety Management System , the Hazardous Work Permit System , the Standards for Personal Protective
Equipment Allocation , and the Occupational Health Management System . These systems cover the full spectrum of safety management requirements, including safety accountability, risk
classification and control, hazard identification and mitigation, and emergency management. Supervision is strengthened through internal monitoring, routine inspections, periodic audits,
and third-party certification. OHS performance indicators are incorporated into departmental and individual performance evaluations and are directly linked to compensation and promo-
tion, supported by both incentive and accountability mechanisms to ensure the effective implementation of all OHS measures.
Hoshine Silicon Industry Co., Ltd. 2025 Sustainability Report
Strategy
The Company adheres to the strategic principle of “safety first, prevention-oriented, full participation, and continuous improvement”, positioning OHS as a core driver of human capital value
creation. At the leadership level, safety performance is embedded into strategic decision-making and executive evaluations to ensure alignment between resource allocation and strategic
priorities. At the management level, a dual prevention mechanism—comprising risk classification and control as well as hazard identification and mitigation—is implemented, leveraging da-
ta-driven approaches to enable differentiated and tailored improvements across roles. At the technical level, the Company advances initiatives such as mechanization to replace manual la-
bor, automation to reduce workforce exposure, and the deployment of intelligent monitoring systems to mitigate operational risks at the source. At the employee level, training and incentive
mechanisms are applied to strengthen safety awareness and foster a company-wide safety culture, reinforcing the foundation for sustainable development.

consumption data, and adjusted four affected indicators accordingly, including total energy consumption (direct), total energy consumption, integrated energy consumption intensity and Scope 1 GHG emissions. We also
have retrospectively revised the 2024 Scope 2 GHG emissions, with corresponding updates to total GHG emissions (Scope 1 and Scope 2) and GHG emissions intensity. Meanwhile, the 2024 data on water withdrawal,
total water consumption and water use intensity have been restated. The Company has unified accounting calibers and optimized data management mechanisms to ensure the authenticity, accuracy and comparability
of disclosed information.
The energy consumption calculation for operations in China is based on the General Principles for Calculation of the Comprehensive Energy Consumption (GB2589-2020) issued by the State Administration for Market
