In recent years, with the steady development of Malaysia's manufacturing and stainless steel processing industries, the local stainless steel scrap recycling system has become increasingly mature. The number of recyclers, sorting facilities, and reprocessing enterprises has grown significantly, and the proportion of locally recycled scrap in the circular economy continues to rise, providing strong support for regional stainless steel raw material supply. Meanwhile, Malaysia has become one of the main sources of stainless steel scrap imported by India. According to trade statistics, Malaysia exported approximately 107,000 tons of stainless steel scrap to India in 2024, reflecting strong linkage between the two countries in raw material recycling. Large domestic recycling and processing enterprises possess advanced sorting and reprocessing capabilities, enabling them to classify and process regional scrap and steadily supply high-quality materials to major Asian stainless steel producers in Japan, South Korea, and elsewhere. Against the backdrop of a diversified regional raw material structure and growing value of recycled resources, Malaysia's domestic ex-works stainless steel scrap prices have become an important reference indicator for the Southeast Asian stainless steel industry. To meet market demand, enhance price transparency, and help industry participants stay informed of regional price trends, SMM announces that effective October 30, 2025 , it will officially launch: Malaysia 304 SS Scrap,Ex-works Malaysia,USD/tonne Price specifications: Description: Malaysia 304 SS Scrap,Ex-works Malaysia,USD/tonne Quality: Commercial practice standard.

Dear Client, To keep pace with the rapid development of the magnesium metal industry and the growing need for supply-demand pattern analysis, our company has deeply optimized the data model based on the SMM Magnesium Database and is now systematically upgrading and adjusting the data standards and historical data related to magnesium metal in China. The details are as follows: I. Data Standard Upgrades and Data Revision Notes Background of Adjustments With the rapid growth in demand for magnesium alloys in the downstream sector of magnesium metal, the market landscape is evolving rapidly. For instance, technological iterations in die-casting equipment, differences in the penetration rate of thick and thin magnesium alloy die-cast parts, and recycling rates, among other multidimensional factors, have a significant impact on the production of recycled magnesium. To promptly address the industry's need for supply-demand pattern analysis amid its rapid development, adjustments have been made to the data collection standards for "recycled magnesium production," "primary magnesium production," and "total magnesium metal demand," with historical data also being revised. Previous data collection did not account for the supply of recycled magnesium, which could lead to significant deviations in supply estimates. As the SMM Magnesium Database becomes increasingly comprehensive and detailed, a more robust model has been established. Adjustment Details - Data Source Upgrade: Upgraded from a single primary magnesium market supply and demand dataset to the establishment of a dual supply-demand model for magnesium metal, encompassing both primary and recycled sources. - Revision Scope: Historical data from January 1, 2023, to the present (including retrospective revisions and future forecasts). Effective Date From October 30, 2025 SMM Information & Technology Co., Ltd. SMM Magnesium Research Team Jiao Jiani 021-20707954 October 27, 2025

Respected Client, To keep pace with the rapid development of the magnesium industry and the evolving needs for supply-demand analysis, our company has optimized the data model based on the SMM Magnesium Database and is now systematically upgrading the data standards and historical data for magnesium-related metrics in China and globally. Details are as follows: Data Standards and Historical Data Adjustment Notice I. Background of Adjustment With the rapid growth of downstream magnesium alloy demand, the magnesium market landscape continues to evolve. Factors such as technological advancements in die-casting equipment, varying penetration rates of magnesium alloy die-cast parts across different thickness markets, and recycling utilization rates have significantly impacted recycled magnesium production. To better capture the effects of industry changes on supply-demand analysis, and in conjunction with SMM's further in-depth research on the proportion of magnesium added in aluminum industry processes—improving recycled magnesium recovery and utilization coefficients and revising historical data for "primary magnesium" and "magnesium powder" production—we are now adjusting and updating the following metrics in the balance sheet: "recycled magnesium supply," "primary magnesium supply," "magnesium consumption in aluminum products," and "magnesium powder production." II. Adjustment Details Data Points Revised: "Recycled Magnesium Supply," "Primary Magnesium Supply," "Magnesium Consumption in Aluminum Products," "Magnesium Powder Production." Revision Scope: Historical data from January 1, 2023, onward (including retrospective revisions and future forecasts). III.
