announcement.
This announcement is not for release, publication, distribution, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States

announcement does not constitute or form a part of any offer or solicitation to purchase or subscribe for securities

registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 as amended from time to time (the “U.S. Securities Act ”) or
securities law of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. The securities may not be offered, sold, pledged

of the U.S. Securities Act and in compliance with any applicable state securities laws, or (1) solely to qualified

under the U.S. Securities Act and (2) outside the United States unless in compliance with Regulation S under the U.S.
Securities Act. There will be no public offer of securities in the United States.
This announcement is for information purposes only and does not constitute an invitation or offer to acquire, purchase
or subscribe for securities. This announcement is not a prospectus. Potential investors should read the prospectus dated
9 September 2024 (the “Prospectus ”) issued by Midea Group Co., Ltd. (ʮ̡ ) (the “Company ”)
for detailed information about the Global Offering described below before deciding whether or not to invest in the H
Shares thereby being offered. Any investment decision in relation to the Offer Shares should be taken solely in reliance
on the information in the Prospectus. The Company has not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended.
Unless otherwise defined in this announcement, capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings as those
defined in the Prospectus.
In connection with the Global Offering, China International Capital Corporation Hong Kong Securities Limited,
as stabilizing manager (the “Stabilizing Manager ”) (or its affiliates or any person acting for it), on behalf of the
Underwriters, to the extent permitted by the applicable laws and regulatory requirements of Hong Kong or elsewhere,
may over-allocate or effect transactions with a view to stabilizing or supporting the market price of the H Shares at
such price, in such amounts and in such manners as the Stabilizing Manager, its affiliates or any person acting for it
may determine and at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period after the Listing Date.
However, there is no obligation on the Stabilizing Manager (or its affiliates or any person acting for it) to conduct
any such stabilizing action. Such stabilizing action, if taken, (a) will be conducted at the absolute discretion of the
Stabilization Manager (or its affiliates or any person acting for it) and in what the Stabilizing Manager reasonably
regards as the best interest of our Company, (b) may be discontinued at any time and (c) is required to be brought to an
end within 30 days of the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering (which is Saturday,
12 October 2024). Such stabilizing action, if taken, may be effected in all jurisdictions where it is permissible to do
so, in each case in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulatory requirements, including the Securities and
Futures (Price Stabilizing) Rules (Chapter 571W of the Laws of Hong Kong), as amended, made under the Securities
and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).
Potential investors should be aware that no stabilizing action can be taken to support the price of the H Shares for
longer than the stabilization period, which will begin on the Listing Date, and is expected to expire on the 30th day
after the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering (which is Saturday, 12 October 2024).
After this date, when no further stabilizing action may be taken, demand for the H Shares, and therefore the price of
the H Shares, could fall.
Potential investors of the Offer Shares should note that the Overall Coordinators (for themselves and on behalf of
the Hong Kong Underwriters) shall be entitled to terminate their obligations under the Hong Kong Underwriting
Agreement with immediate effect upon the occurrence of any of the events set out in the section headed “Underwriting
– Underwriting Arrangements and Expenses – Hong Kong Public Offering – Grounds for Termination ” in the
Prospectus at any time prior to 8:00 a.m. (Hong Kong time) on the Listing Date (which is currently expected to be on
Tuesday, 17 September 2024).

materials in relation to the placing, allotment and listing of the Company’s H Shares.
The Directors confirm that, to the best of their knowledge, the consideration paid by the placees or

OTHERS / ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Offer Size Adjustment Option
The Offer Size Adjustment Option has been exercised by the Company in full, pursuant to which the
Company is issuing and allotting 73,820,200 additional H Shares, representing approximately 15.0% of the
total number of H Shares initially available under the Global Offering, at the final Offer Price.
Accordingly, the total number of Offer Shares finally available under the Global Offering (after taking into
account the full exercise of the Offer Size Adjustment Option and before any exercise of the Over-allotment
Option) that would be allotted and issued by the Company is 565,955,300 Offer Shares and the total issued
share capital of the Company upon Listing (after taking into account the full exercise of the Offer Size
Adjustment Option and before any exercise of the Over-allotment Option) will be 7,559,086,151 Shares.
As (i) the Hong Kong Public Offering is oversubscribed by more than 0.15 time but less than 9 times and (ii)
the reallocation pursuant to Chapter 4.14 of the Guide for New Listing Applicants as described in the section
headed “Structure of the Global Offering – The Hong Kong Public Offering – Reallocation” of the Prospectus
is not exercised, no clawback arrangement will be triggered. The additional Offer Shares pursuant to the Offer
Size Adjustment Option will be allocated between the International Offering and the Hong Kong Public
Offering according to the 95:5 ratio.
Reallocation
As the Hong Kong Public Offering has been oversubscribed by less than 9 times of the total number of Offer
Shares initially available under the Hong Kong Public Offering, the reallocation procedure as disclosed in the
section headed “Structure of the Global Offering – The Hong Kong Public Offering – Reallocation” of the
Prospectus has not been applied.
As the Offer Size Adjustment Option has been exercised by the Company in full, pursuant to which the
Company is issuing and allotting 73,820,200 additional H Shares, the final number of Offer Shares under the
Hong Kong Public Offering is adjusted to 28,297,800 H Shares, representing approximately 5% of the total
number of Offer Shares under the Global Offering (assuming the Over-allotment Option is not exercised), and
the final number of Offer Shares under the International Offering is adjusted to 537,657,500 H Shares,
representing approximately 95% of the total number of Offer Shares under the Global Offering (assuming the
Over-allotment Option is not exercised).

Notes:
1) The ultimate clients of CICC WI have subscribed to a privately-offered securities investment fund established under the laws of the PRC (the “Privately-
Offered Securities Investment Fund ”), which will then enter into a cash -settled total return swap transaction with China International Capital
Corporation Limited ( “CICCL”) referencing the Offer Shares. CICCL will pass through the economic return/loss of the relevant Offer Shares to the
Privately-Offered Securities Investment Fund (the “CICC WI TRS 1”). CICCL will simultaneously enter into a series of back -to-back cash-settled total
return swap transactions with CICC WI, whereas CICC WI will pass through the economic return/loss of the relevant Offer Share s to CICCL (together
with CICC WI TRS 1, the “CICC WI OTC Swaps”); and CICC WI will subscribe for the relevant Offer Shares. During the terms of the above transactions,
all economic loss shall be borne by the ultimate clients of CICC WI through the CICC WI OTC Swaps, and neither CICC WI or CIC CL will take part in
any economic return or bear any economic loss in relation to the price of the relevant Offer Shares. The CICC WI OTC Swaps ar e linked to the Offer
Shares and the ultimate clients of CICC WI may request CICC WI to redeem it at their own discretions, up on which CICC WI shall dispose of the Offer
Shares and settle CICC WI OTC Swaps in cash in accordance with the terms and conditions of the CICC WI OTC Swaps. Despite that CICC WI will hold

23
the title of the relevant Offer Shares by itself, it will not exercise the voting right in respect of the relevant Offer Shares during the terms of the transactions
above according its internal policy.
To the best of CICC WI’s knowledge having made all reasonable inquiries, each of the ultimate clients of CICC WI is an independent third party of CICC
WI, CICCL, CICCHKS and the companies which are members of the same group of CICCHKS.
2) CICC FT and CICCL will enter into a series of cross border delta-one OTC swap transactions (the “OTC Swaps”) with each other and the ultimate clients
(the “CICC FT Ultimate Clients”), pursuant to which CICC FT will hold the Offer Shares on a non -discretionary basis to hedge the OTC Swaps while
the economic risks and returns of the underlying Offer Shares are passed to the CICC FT Ultimate Clients, subject to customar y fees and commissions.
The OTC Swaps will be fully funded by the CICC FT Ultimate Clients. During the terms of the OTC Swaps, all economic returns of the Offer Shares
subscribed by CICC FT will be passed to the CICC FT Ultimate Clients and all economic loss shall be borne by the CICC FT Ulti mate Clients through
the OTC Swaps, and CICC FT will no t take part in any economic return or bear any economic loss in relation to the Offer Shares. The OTC Swaps are
linked to the Offer Shares and the CICC FT Ultimate Clients may request CICC FT to redeem it at their own discretions, upon w hich CICC FT shall
dispose of the Offer Shares and settle OTC Swaps in cash in accordance with the terms and conditions of the OTC Swap. Despite that CICC FT will hold
the legal title of the Offer Shares by itself, it will not exercise the voting rights attaching to the rele vant Offer Shares during the terms of the OTC Swaps
according to its internal policy.
To the best of CICC FT’s knowledge having made all reasonable inquiries, each of the CICC FT Ultimate Clients is an independe nt third party of CICC
FT, CICCHKS and the companies which are members of the same group of CICCHKS.
3) CSI will act as the single counterparty of a back -to-back total return swap transaction (the “CSI Back-to-back TRS”) to be entered into by CSI in
connection with a total return swap order (the “CSI Client TRS”) placed by its ultimate clients (the “CSI Ultimate Client(s)”), by which CSI will pass
the full economic exposure of the Offer Shares placed to CSI to the CSI Ultimate Clients. CSI will hold the beneficial interest of the Offer Shares on behalf
of the CSI Ultimate Clients on a non -discretionary basis. The CSI Ultima te Clients may exercise an early termination right to early terminate the CSI
Client TRS at any time from the trade date of the CSI Client TRS which should be on or after the date on which the Offer Shar es are listed on the Stock
Exchange. Upon the final maturity or termination of the CSI Client TRS by the CSI Ultimate Clients, CSI will dispose of the Offer Shares on the secondary
market and the CSI Ultimate Clients will receive a final termination amount of the CSI Back -to-back TRS which should have taken into account all the
economic returns or economic loss in relation to the Offer Shares and the fixed amount of transaction fees of the CSI Back-to-back TRS and the CSI Client
TRS. CSI will not exercise the voting right of the Offer Shares during the terms of the CSI Back-to-back TRS.
To the best knowledge of CSI after making all reasonable enquiries, each of the CSI Ultimate Clients is an independent third party of CSI and CLSA and
the companies which are members of the same group of CLSA.
4) PRC investors are currently not permitted under applicable PRC laws to participate directly in the Global Offering in Hong Kong. However, PRC investors
are permitted to invest in products issued by appropriate domestic securities firms licensed to undertak e cross-border derivatives trading activities. In
connection with such products, the licensed domestic securities firms, through their Hong Kong affiliates, may participate in the Global Offering either as
placees or cornerstone investors (the “Cross-border Derivatives Trading Regime”).

Huatai Securities Co., Ltd. (“Huatai Securities”), the shares of which are listed on both the Shanghai Stock Exchange (stock code: 601688) and the Stock
Exchange (stock code: 6886), is one of the domestic securities firms licensed to undertake cross -border derivatives trading activities. Huatai Securiti es
entered into an ISDA agreement (the “ISDA Agreement”) with its indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary, HTCI, to set out the principal terms of any future
total return swap between Huatai Securities and HTCI.
HTFH is a Joint Bookrunner in connection with the Global Offering. Pursuant to the ISDA Agreement, HTCI, which intends to par ticipate in the Global
Offering as a placee, will hold the Offer Shares on a non-discretionary basis as the single underlying holder under a back-to-back total return swap (the
“Back-to-back TRS”) to be entered by HTCI in connection with a Client TRS (as defined below) placed by and fully funded (i.e. with no financing provided
by HTCI) by the Huatai Ultimate Clients (as defined below), by which, HTCI will pass the full economic exposure of the Offer Shares to the Huatai Ultimate
Clients, which in effect, HTCI will hold the beneficial interest of the Offer Shares on behalf of the Huatai Ultimate Clients. HTFH, the Joint Bookrunner,
and HTCI are indirectly wholly-owned subsidiaries of Huatai Securities. Accordingly, HTCI is considered as a “connected client” of HTFH pursuant to
paragraph 13(7) of the Placing Guidelines.
Pursuant to the Cross-border Derivatives Trading Regime, the onshore investors (the “Huatai Ultimate Clients”) cannot directly subscribe for the Offer
Shares but may invest in derivative products issued by domestic securities firms licenced to undertake cross-border derivatives trading activities, such as
Huatai Securities, with the Offer Shares as the underlying assets. Instead of directly subscribing for the Offer Shares, the Huatai Ultimate Clients will
place a total return swap order (the “Client TRS”) with Huatai Securities in connection with the Company’s Global Offering and Huatai Securities will
place a Back -to-back TRS order to HTCI on the terms of the ISDA Agreement. In order to hedge its exposure under the Back -to-back TRS, HTCI
participates in the Company’s Global Offering and subscribes the Offer Shares through placing order with HTFH during the International Offering.
To the best knowledge of HTCI after making all reasonable enquiries, each of the Huatai Ultimate Clients is an independent th ird party of HTCI, HTFH
and the companies which are members of the same group of HTFH.
The purpose of HTCI to subscribe for the Offer Shares is for hedging the Back-to-back TRS in connection with the Client TRS order placed by the Huatai
Ultimate Clients. Pursuant to the terms of the contracts of the Back -to-back TRS and the Client TRS, duri ng the terms of the Back -to-back TRS and the
Client TRS, all economic returns of the Offer Shares will be passed to the Huatai Ultimate Clients through the Back-to-back TRS and the Client TRS and
all economic loss shall be borne by the Huatai Ultimate Clients. HTCI will not take any economic return or bear any economic loss in relation to the Offer
Shares.
Investment in the Back-to-back TRS and the Client TRS is similar to the investment in a qualified domestic institutional investor fund (“QDII”) in the way
that the Huatai Ultimate Clients would reap all the economic benefits of the underlying Offer Shares, except that a QDII fund would pass through the
exchange rate exposure on both the notional value of the investment and the profit and loss of the investment. In contrast, the profit and loss of the Back-
to-back TRS and the Client TRS factor into account the fluctuation in RMB exchange rate upon termination of the Client TRS by converting the profit and
loss using the current exchange rate at the time of termination. As such, the Huatai Ultimate Clients would bear the exchange rate exposure of the profit
and loss on settlement date.
The Huatai Ultimate Clients may exercise an early termination right to terminate the Client TRS at any time from the issue da te of the Client TRS which
should be on or after the date on which the Offer Shares are listed on the Stock Exchange. Upon the termination upon maturity or early termination of the
--- page 27 ---
25
Client TRS by the Huatai Ultimate Clients, HTCI will dispose the Offer Shares on the secondary market and the Huatai Ultimate Clients will receive a
final termination amount of the Back-to-back TRS which should have taken into account all the economic returns or economic loss in relation to the Offer
Shares. If upon the maturity of the Client TRS, the Huatai Ultimate Clients intend to extend the investment period, subject t o further agreement between
Huatai Securities and the relevant Huatai Ultimate Clients, the term of the Client TRS could be extended by way of a new issuance or a tenor extension.
Accordingly, Huatai Securities will extend the term of the Back-to-back TRS by way of a new issuance or a tenor extension.
It is proposed that HTCI will hold the legal title and the voting right of the Offer Shares by itself, and pass through the e conomic exposure to the Huatai
Ultimate Clients, each being an onshore client who places a Client TRS order with Huatai Securities in connection with the Global Offering of the Company.
Due to its internal policy, HTCI will not exercise the voting right of the Offer Shares during the tenor of the Back-to-back TRS.
During the terms of the Client TRS and Back-to-back TRS, HTCI may continue to hold the Offer Shares in its custodian account, or to hold some or all of
the Offer Shares in a prime brokerage account for stock borrowing purposes (as further described below).
As permitted under the contractual arrangement with the Huatai Ultimate Clients, HTCI will lend out its holding of underlying Offer Shares in the form
of stock borrowing loans consistent with market practice to lower its finance costs, provided that HTCI h as the ability to call back the Offer Shares on
loan at any time in order to satisfy its obligations under the Back-to-back TRS to ensure the economic interests to be passed to the Huatai Ultimate Clients
will remain unchanged.
