Annual Report and Notice of AGM and EGM

 

Winking Studios Limited (AIM / SGX:WKS) (the "Company"), one of the leading
global AAA game art outsourcing studios and an established game development
company, announces that its Annual General Meeting ("AGM") will be held on
Thursday, 30 April 2026 at 4.00pm (Singapore time) / 9.00am (UK time) at YMCA
@ One Orchard TCT Function Room (Level 4), 1 Orchard Road, Singapore 238824
and its Extraordinary General Meeting ("EGM") will be held on Thursday, 30
April 2026 at 4.30pm (Singapore time) / 9.30am (UK time) at the same venue.

 

The Company announces that it is seeking Shareholder approval at the EGM for
the adoption of a share buyback mandate (the "Share Buyback Mandate"), which
will authorise the Company to purchase its own ordinary shares of a nominal or
par value of S$0.04 each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares").
The Share Buyback Mandate is required under the Company's articles of
association and, if approved, will remain in force until the earlier of the
Company's next AGM, its revocation or variation by Shareholders, or the point
at which the Share Buyback Mandate is fully utilised. The directors of the
Company (the "Directors") believe the Share Buyback Mandate will provide
flexibility to undertake share purchases when appropriate, enabling the
Company to return surplus capital efficiently, enhance earnings per share
and/or net tangible assets per share, and support the orderly trading of its
Ordinary Shares.

 

Under the Share Buyback Mandate, the Company may purchase up to a maximum of
10 per cent. of its issued share capital (excluding treasury shares and
subsidiary holdings), subject also to a financial cap of US$3 million in
aggregate for repurchase of shares transactions undertaken by the Company in
any consecutive period of two (2) weeks., with the lower limit prevailing.
Share buybacks may be effected through on-market purchases or off-market
transactions conducted in accordance with applicable regulations. The purchase
price will be subject to prescribed limits, being up to 105 per cent. of the
average closing price for on-market purchases and 120 per cent. for off-market
purchases. Shares acquired may be cancelled or held in treasury for future
use, including to satisfy share incentive schemes. The Directors will only
undertake buybacks where they consider it to be in the best interests of the
Company and its Shareholders, and will ensure that any such purchases do not
adversely affect the Company's financial position or its listing status on AIM
or the Catalist of the SGX-ST.

 

There is a webcast available and for Shareholders wishing to join online,
please register via ir@winkingworks.com with your full name and relevant
identification number by 26 April 2026, 4.00pm (Singapore time) / 9.00am (UK
time).
