Feasibility analysis report on carrying out forward foreign exchange settlement and sales business
1、 Purpose of carrying out forward foreign exchange settlement and sales business
In order to implement the company’s development strategy and reasonably distribute domestic and foreign markets, the company actively carries out and maintains overseas business development. With the continuous expansion of the company’s overseas business scale, the volume of foreign exchange settlement business has gradually increased. Therefore, when the exchange rate fluctuates greatly, the exchange gains and losses will have a certain impact on the company’s operating performance. In order to reduce the impact of exchange rate on the company’s operating performance and reduce some exchange gains and losses, the company and its subsidiaries plan to carry out forward foreign exchange settlement and sales business in 2022.
2、 Type, amount and term of forward foreign exchange settlement and sales business
The company and its subsidiaries intend to carry out forward foreign exchange settlement and sales business with commercial banks, which is limited to the settlement currency used in the company’s import and export business, including but not limited to US dollars. The total amount is expected to be no more than US $50 million, which is valid for 12 months from the date of deliberation and approval by the 2021 annual general meeting of shareholders.
The company’s own funds shall be used for the long-term foreign exchange settlement and sales business, and the raised funds shall not be used for the long-term foreign exchange settlement and sales business directly or indirectly.
