Outlook and Prospect:

• Looking forward, we will continue to enhance core competitiveness of products, and strengthen research and development capability.

• The COVID-19 pandemic has caused many uncertainties in 2020 and made us experience the rapidly changing world. We must maintain high operational flexibility and vigilance at all times, while protecting our employees’ health and safety as the first priority. At the same time, we have to quickly respond to the crisis caused by shortage of supply chain, insufficient production capacity and negative impact of international logistics. We are seeing first half of 2020 full of challenges. The overall supply chain has been turning stable from May. We see no significant changes in demand for the whole year. Compare to first half of 2020, we are expecting a growth in the second half. Overall, 2020 will also show a growth compare to the previous year.
• We have also seen the rapid growth of applications such as Stay-at-Home economy, video conferences, distance education, and Work From Home. We believe this could still be the new normal even in the post-pandemic era, and it will bring continuous growth momentum for cloud datacenter.
