SET requests to clarify news or information Subject : Clarification of news or information requested by SET Description : TWZ005/2026 April 7, 2026 Subject: Clarification of Information in the Financial Statements for the Year 2025 (Revised) To: President, The Stock Exchange of Thailand TWZ Corporation Public Company Limited (the "Company") has already submitted the financial statements for the year 2025 to you. The Company would like to provide additional clarification on relevant matters to ensure clarity, completeness, and usefulness for investors and all stakeholders, as follows: Summary of Key Information in the Financial Statements for the Year 2025 and Additional Clarifications Requested 1. Gross Loss of THB 639 million from 6 bulk sales contracts: The Company sold almost all its inventory to the Company's debtors and creditors who wished to participate in the bidding process. The Company sold the products, which were grouped into mixed categories and assorted types, at a total cost of THB 2,130 million, while the selling price was lower than cost at THB 1,491 million, resulting in a significant gross loss for the year. The Company had reasons and necessity for this bulk sale on two main grounds as follows: 1.) Reason for Strategic Business Adjustment From the Company's previous business operations, the Company focused on maintaining a full range of products in all models and colors displayed at storefronts, allowing consumers to choose and purchase, with a large inventory available for immediate delivery upon purchase. However, under current circumstances, consumer behavior has changed, especially among the younger generation, who tend to use trendy mobile phones that follow market trends. They quickly sell their old devices at low prices just to obtain some funds to purchase newly released models. As a result, mobile phones become obsolete very quickly. New devices that remain in stock are increasingly difficult to sell, and prices decline. If left unsold for a long period, prices may drop by more than 50 percent. Furthermore, based on information received from many of the Company's trade debtors, several have experienced declining sales, accumulated inventory, and have begun to default on payments or request extensions of trade credit terms. The Company itself faced difficulties in the fourth quarter of 2025, with sales revenue declining significantly, generating total revenue of approximately THB 880 million, which is lower than in every previous year and is expected to decline further in the future due to intensified competition, an increase in online competitors, and continuously decreasing profit margins. In addition, major operators have launched competitive promotions against the Company, including trade-in programs for old devices and installment payment campaigns, placing the Company at a disadvantage. If the Company were to allow more time to pass, its inventory would generate decreasing revenue and might even result in unsellable stock remaining. Therefore, to mitigate risk, management decided to adjust the business plan by conducting bulk sales to liquidate inventory into cash and revising the sales approach by reducing showroom inventory, shifting to a pre-order model with later delivery. Distributors are able to deliver products quickly within 2-5 days, which does not significantly impact sales. Considering the current situation, management believes that implementing the bulk sales policy was an appropriate decision as a survival strategy, accepting losses in order to reset the business. 2.) Necessity for Funding As the Company has disclosed information regarding the land acquisition, the land under the memorandum of agreement for land borrowing, used as collateral with a financial institution dated April 3, 2024, will mature on April 2, 2026. The agreement stipulates that the Company must redeem the land from the financial institution and return it to the landowner. The Company is therefore required to obtain cash to repay the debt or provide alternative collateral to the financial institution. This poses a difficulty for the Company, particularly during the current economic downturn. The landowner has proposed to sell the land to the Company at a price of THB 1,600 million, which is approximately THB 200 million lower than the appraised value assessed by an independent appraiser and also lower than the current market transaction price. In addition, the transfer fee of approximately THB 200 million will be borne by the seller, whereas under the original agreement, such transfer fee would have been the Company's responsibility. However, the Company is required to place a deposit for part of the land value. Therefore, the Company needs to use the proceeds from the bulk sale of inventory as the source of funds for such deposit. The Company has considered that this land acquisition will generate profit to offset the loss from the bulk sale. Regarding the bulk sale, management has carefully considered the decision by comparing two scenarios: selling versus not selling. In the case of proceeding with the bulk sale, the Company recognizes an immediate loss of THB 639 million. However, this is partially offset by the Company's ability to negotiate a reduction in the land purchase price of approximately THB 400 million using the proceeds from the bulk sale. In contrast, if the Company were unable to sell the inventory, the existing stock valued at approximately THB 2,130 million would decline in value by an average of 50%, or approximately THB 1,065 million. Therefore, based on the current situation, management believes that the decision to proceed with the bulk sale is reasonable. The sale of goods in the form of bulk transactions is a normal course of the Company's business operations. Historically, the Company has operated under two sales models: retail and wholesale (bulk sales). However, in the past, wholesale transactions were not conducted in large volumes at one time as in this case. The counterparties involved in this transaction are long-standing business partners of the Company, with whom the Company has maintained long-term trading relationships and a consistent record of timely payments. Going forward, the Company will continue its business of selling mobile phones and accessories by maintaining inventory at an appropriate level aligned with current retail and wholesale operations. Wholesale transactions will primarily be conducted on a cash basis, in line with the Company's current business practices. The Board of Directors concurs with management's view as stated above. The Board has considered that the associated risks to the Company's operations will be lower in the long term. Additionally, the Company will have capital available to invest in real estate business. The Company has continuously operated in the real estate sector alongside its core business, including condominium projects on land in Pattaya, leasehold projects with the State Railway of Thailand on land in Ratchada, and land projects in Khao Yai. The above business approach is deemed appropriate to the Company's circumstances as an adjustment strategy to enable the Company to continue its operations effectively. 2. Loss from Impairment in Accordance with TFRS 9 from Trade Receivables Amounting to THB 1,013.26 million The Company has trade receivables totaling THB 3,187.40 million, representing an increase of 91% compared to the same period of the previous year. This includes receivables from bulk sales contracts amounting to THB 1,595.03 million. The Company has recognized an expected credit loss allowance of THB 1,013.26 million, accounting for 32% of total trade receivables. which arose from an allowance for litigation involving two debtors, who are unrelated parties and are not debtors under the lump-sum purchase agreement, totaling 1,011.50 million baht. The two litigated trade debtors arose from the Company's sale of mobile phone products to both parties on credit terms in the normal course of business. However, both debtors reported declining sales and excess inventory, resulting in their inability to settle outstanding debts by the due dates. The Company has continuously followed up on debt collection and issued formal written demand notices in accordance with procedures. Despite these efforts, no payments have been received from the two debtors. Therefore, the Company decided to initiate civil legal proceedings against the said debtors on February 23, 2026, claiming repayment of the full outstanding amounts, together with interest at a rate of 5% per annum on the principal, as well as reimbursement of court fees and legal expenses. Regarding the customer selection process for new wholesale or bulk sales transactions, the Company will implement stricter screening measures, with a stronger emphasis on cash-based sales and retail transactions. As a result, it is highly likely that the Company will not encounter litigation or defaults from future sales transactions. The Board of Directors agrees with the aforementioned policy implementation, considering it appropriate and sufficient as part of the Company's business adjustment. If such measures are followed, similar incidents are unlikely to occur in the future. 3. Loss from Impairment of Assets Related to the Plasma Power Plant Project 3.1 Loss from Impairment of Other Intangible Assets Amounting to THB 447 million: The Company has two contracts acquired from the acquisition of the plasma energy business in 2019, totaling THB 447 million. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 situation and the importation of machinery from overseas, for which the Company had made advance payments and already recognized an impairment of THB 69.67 million as of December 31, 2024, the Company assessed that it is unlikely that the machinery supplier will be able to deliver the equipment. As a result, the Company is required to procure new machinery. However, considering the timeline for the Scheduled Commercial Operation Date (SCOD) under the Power Purchase Agreement, for which an extension request has already been submitted but no confirmation has been received, this has impacted the value of the assets comprising the contracts as follows: 1. Contract for revenue from the purchase of raw materials to be processed into fuel from 3 suppliers: THB 255 million 2. Power Purchase Agreement with the Provincial Electricity Authority: THB 192 million 3.2 Loss from Impairment of Goodwill Amounting to THB 26.19 million: Most of this arose from the reassessment of the feasibility of the SCOD of the power plant project and the evaluation that the recoverable value has decreased, resulting in an impairment of goodwill amounting to THB 24.13 million. 3.3 Loss from Impairment of Land, Buildings, and Equipment Amounting to THB 85.59 million: This mainly arose from a subsidiary operating the plasma power plant business amounting to THB 83.74 million, comprising impairment of land of THB 50.73 million and construction in progress of THB 33.01 million. 3.4 Loss from Impairment of Waste Inventory for Fuel Amounting to THB 77.20 million: The Company has industrial waste intended to be used as fuel in the plasma power plant project. Based on financial projections, there is currently no supporting project to utilize such waste for commercial purposes. In addition, the expected recoverable value from sale is significantly lower than cost; therefore, the Company has recognized full impairment of such inventory. From all the above impairment losses related to the plasma power plant project, prior to investing in the plasma power plant, the Company had considered the investment risks in accordance with normal investment practices. The Company managed to minimize risks in both investment and business operations. The investment in the power plant business was considered based on the existence of a power purchase agreement with the Provincial Electricity Authority, meaning the Company would have a definite buyer, resulting in predictable revenue if electricity could be supplied as scheduled. And the project also includes advance payments for machinery, which are considered part of the project's investment value by the joint venture partners prior to the Company's investment; such advance deposits are included in the total amount already invested by the Company. Furthermore, the advance payment for machinery was undertaken by the joint venture partner prior to the Company's investment, indicating readiness to operate in line with the SCOD timeline. The Company conducted a background check on the machinery supplier and found that it operates in this business. However, plasma power technology is not widely adopted, and there are only a limited number of machinery suppliers. As a result, the power plant company had limited options and no domestic suppliers available. Regarding the operations of the power plant company, the original shareholder group, who are the main executives, have continuously monitored progress, and management has periodically followed up on developments. As for the current approach, However, no plan has yet been received from the machinery supplier regarding how such amount will be compensated or in what form the compensation will be made. The Company has invited the original shareholder group to negotiate a potential sale of the Company's shares back to them, which is currently under consideration by the original shareholder group. The Board of Directors considered the investment and transaction to be reasonable. The Company has a power purchase agreement with the Provincial Electricity Authority, ensuring a stable and reliable buyer and predictable revenue. Prior to the investment, a deposit had been made for machinery procurement, indicating the project's potential to proceed. The acquisition price proposed by the original shareholders was considered reasonable, supported by a valuation conducted by a financial advisor approved by the SEC. If the project does not proceed as planned, the original shareholder group confirmed that the SCOD could be extended, which has been done continuously in the past. The Company conducted comprehensive due diligence in accounting and legal aspects. Most importantly, the Board considered that in order for the power plant company to obtain a power purchase agreement, the Energy Regulatory Commission Office must assess the Company's readiness in five aspects as follows: 1. Technical readiness: the power plant must be capable of actual and continuous operation. 2. Fuel readiness: for a plasma power plant, this refers to the availability of plasma waste processing facilities as raw materials for the business. 3. Electrical system readiness: connection to the transmission system, including grid lines and grid capacity, must be in place. 4. Legal and contractual readiness: the Company must have land lease agreements or ownership rights for the power plant site. 5. Financial readiness: financial institutions must issue a confirmation letter indicating their willingness to provide funding for the project. After due consideration by the Board of Directors, the power plant project had already been approved by the Energy Regulatory Commission Office as meeting all required readiness criteria. The Board was therefore able to reasonably believe, at the initial stage, that the Company would be capable of operating and conducting the business as planned, and thus approved entering into the transaction. However, the risks that subsequently arose were due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war, which affected the machinery supplier, as well as the stricter credit approval policies of financial institutions?particularly concerning plasma power plant technology?resulting in the power plant business being unable to continue operations. 4. Loss from Impairment of Investment in Subsidiaries and Associates Amounting to THB 74.27 million: The Company recognized an impairment of its investment in the EV vehicle business for taxi and VIP services, which was originally aligned with the government's policy to gradually replace end-of-life vehicles with electric vehicles to promote clean energy usage. Subsequently, the Company adjusted its business approach to participate in bidding for projects from government agencies, private sector entities, and transportation sectors. However, the Company faced intense price competition from other bidders and was constrained by contractual obligations related to vehicle imports. As a result, the Company was unable to generate additional revenue as planned. Management has evaluated the future business plan and determined that it is not feasible to continue operations at present. Therefore, the Company has recognized an impairment allowance for its investment in Advance Mobility Co., Ltd. amounting to THB 74.27 million. In this regard, the original investment agreement still obligates the Company to pay the remaining share subscription amount of THB 150 million, which has not yet been called for payment. And since the Company has invited the original group of shareholders to enter into negotiations to sell its shareholding back to them, and such shareholders are currently considering the matter, the Company therefore has no plan to pay the remaining share subscription amount. As previously disclosed, the Company entered into a joint investment memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Pholboon Holding Co., Ltd. ("representative of the original shareholders") on January 30, 2020, to invest in the electric vehicle business. The Board of Directors approved that Electra Motive Co., Ltd. ("Subsidiary" or "ELME"), in which the Company holds 99.99% of the registered capital, would undertake such investment. The Company considered the principles, rationale, and reasonableness as follows: 1. The electric vehicle business is a future growth industry. In addition, the business group is entitled to tax privileges from the Board of Investment (BOI), which currently provides a competitive advantage in importing electric vehicles and/or components for assembly. 2. Under the share subscription agreement, maintaining BOI privileges is essential for operations and for preserving the group's core competitive advantages. Therefore, the Company's investment is necessary and reasonable, as it is made at par value. 3. Under the shareholders' agreement, both Group A shareholders (original shareholders) and Group B shareholders (the Company) have exit options through share purchase and sale between the parties. There is also a balanced governance structure based on arm's length principles, Since both groups of shareholders?Group A, which includes the Company, and Group B, which includes Rich Asia Corporation Public Company Limited, a company listed on the stock exchange at the time of the transaction?were subject to principles of good corporate governance, the said agreement is therefore considered reasonable. Risk Management Approach 1. Under the share subscription agreement, it is clearly specified that 25% of the total paid-up capital from the capital increase will be used to repay debt to SKY-TH, which is a subsidiary under the Company's control. As a result, the Company has full authority to manage this cash flow, for example, TWZ may issue Bills of Exchange (B/E) or Promissory Notes (P/N) to the subsidiary in order to lend funds back to TWZ. 2. Under the shareholders' agreement, it is clearly stipulated that Group A shareholders agree to import, manufacture, or assemble electric vehicles, including parts, components, and accessories, in accordance with the quantity and volume specified in the financial projections agreed upon by the parties, with financial support from the Company. It is further specified that if Group A shareholders are unable to perform according to the agreed plan, Group B shareholders or the Company have the right to sell their shares back to Group A shareholders. 3. In addition, to prevent any default in the share buyback arrangement, management has entered into a share purchase agreement between ELME and Skywell Holding Co., Ltd. (an investor introduced by Group A shareholders), which has expertise in automobile manufacturing and an interest in joint investment, supported by several Chinese investors who have expressed preliminary intentions to participate. Since the Company has already fully provided for the impairment of this investment and does not intend to make further investments in this business, the Company is currently considering selling such investment back to the original shareholder group. which is currently under consideration. Accordingly, all future investment obligations will be borne by the original shareholder group. 5. Loss from Impairment of Loans Amounting to THB 20 million: The Company has recognized an impairment allowance for a long-term loan granted to a joint venture project with AA Bio Co., Ltd. (AABIO) in the full amount of THB 20 million, as management expects that the principal will not be recoverable. The Board of Directors had set conditions for the loan as follows: The control process over the utilization of the THB 20 million loan requires that the funds be used only for project expansion and not for projects that had already been implemented prior to the Company's investment. Before any loan disbursement, there must be a review and preparation of detailed information regarding both the completed projects and the projects to be undertaken, including a clear disbursement plan. In addition, conditions must be set prohibiting AABIO from repaying loans to its directors for existing liabilities prior to repaying the Company, unless prior written consent is obtained from the Company. Collateral under the loan agreement requires that all shares of AABIO be pledged as security for the loan, and authorized directors of AABIO must also act as guarantors for the loan. The approval conditions are as follows: 1. Since the Company has extended the loan to AABIO, a separate ESCROW account must be opened under AABIO's name, distinct from the Company's accounts. Withdrawals from this account must require joint authorization by both the Company and AABIO. The utilization of funds must follow the plan determined by the financial advisor (FA) based on agreed assumptions. Both parties must deposit funds into the ESCROW account in accordance with the specified amounts simultaneously. 2. An investment and performance monitoring committee must be established to oversee the use of funds in accordance with the investment plan under item 1.1. This committee shall consist of representatives from both the Company and AABIO, and shall be jointly responsible for procurement, hiring, and negotiating terms with suppliers to ensure that the required work is obtained at the lowest possible cost. The committee is also responsible for inspecting and approving completed work prior to any payment. Therefore, all procurement and hiring activities must receive prior approval from the committee in every instance. However, the Company has extended loans to AABIO to be used for investment in construction and procurement of equipment for the cultivation business and the production of hemp extracts, such as land costs, construction costs for the extraction facility, machinery costs, and expenses related to cultivation, including costs for soil preparation trials, as well as other operational expenses. The Company complied fully with all the aforementioned approval conditions prior to granting the loan to AABIO. However, due to legal issues, the business could not be carried out as planned; therefore, the Company has recognized an impairment of the entire loan amount, as continuing the operations could potentially violate the law and principles of good corporate governance. Nevertheless, if in the future there are clear relevant laws enacted, the Company may consider resuming the operations, provided that such actions do not conflict with the law and the Company's corporate governance principles. At present, the loan has not yet reached its maturity date. If the Company does not receive repayment in accordance with the contractual terms, it will promptly take legal action to preserve its rights as a creditor. Any repayment arrangements or debt restructuring will subsequently proceed through the mediation process.
