For More Information, Visit www.SaveSinovac.com
HONG KONG, June 14, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Prime Success L.P., (together with its affiliates, "Prime Success" or "we"), a significant shareholder of Sinovac Biotech Ltd. (NASDAQ: SVA) ("Sinovac" or the "Company") with ownership of approximately 8% of the Company's outstanding shares, today issued the following letter in response to the Company's recent false and misleading claims relating to the upcoming Special Meeting of Shareholders (the "Special Meeting") scheduled for July 8, 2025.
The full text of the letter is below and available at www.SaveSinovac.com.
Dear fellow Sinovac shareholders,
Prime Success, L.P. (together with its affiliates, "Prime Success" or "we"), a significant shareholder of Sinovac Biotech Ltd. (NASDAQ: SVA) ("Sinovac" or the "Company"), continues to be disappointed by the current Board's ("1Globe Activist Board") distortion of the facts about what is at stake at the upcoming Special Meeting of Shareholders (the "Special Meeting") scheduled for July 8, 2025. In our June 10 letter we addressed several of the 1Globe Activist Board's misstatements and are taking the opportunity to remind all shareholders why the 1Globe Activist Board cannot be trusted:
1. Prime Success is insisting that a dividend be distributed – for all shareholders
The 1Globe Activist Board's false comments are just not credible – why would any investor be against receiving a dividend? The 1Globe Activist Board wants you to believe that Prime Success is the reason that dividends have not been distributed, but we are not the Company and are not on the Board, and dividend distribution decisions are not ours to make. We can only continue to advocate on behalf of all shareholders that they should be made.
Under the leadership of a SAIF Partners IV L.P. ("SAIF") nominated Board — composed of seasoned professionals with proven governance experience, deep operational insight, and a track record of building real, lasting value — we are confident that the pattern of internal conflict and ongoing litigation fueled by the 1Globe Activist Board can be broken, and shareholders can look forward to more future dividends. But that will not be possible with the 1Globe Activist Board in power as they have made clear they prioritize endless litigation over the Company's long-term success.
2. The 1Globe Activist Board is deliberately baiting shareholders by setting the dividend distribution date for one day after the Special Meeting. We call upon the Company to make dividend distribution before the Special Meeting
The 1Globe Activist Board deliberately set the dividend date for one day after the Special Meeting which creates the false impression that shareholders must vote for the incumbents to receive the dividends. But the upcoming Special Meeting will determine the Company's future direction and the long-term interests of all shareholders. We call on the 1Globe Activist Board to allow for a fair, pro rata distribution of dividends and to move the date of the dividend distribution to before the Special Meeting so the meeting can refocus on its proper purpose: electing a competent Board.
3. The 1Globe Activist Board distorts historic facts to aggrandize 1Globe and smear legitimate investors
Let's compare facts against rhetoric of the 1Globe Activist Board. Over the past seven years, what have we contributed to the Company?
The critical lifeline investments from Prime Success and Vivo Capital, LLC, combined with management's determined efforts, enabled Sinovac to seize a pivotal opportunity: the development of CoronaVac. This initiative ultimately resulted in the delivery of billions of doses to over 60 countries, generating substantial revenues while saving countless lives. Without the success of CoronaVac, there would not be any sizable dividend to distribute now.
In contrast, what has 1Globe done for the Company?
It has initiated multi-jurisdictional litigation against Sinovac, leading to a waste of company resources. The 1Globe Activist Board's mischaracterization of 1Globe and Prime Success' relative contribution to Sinovac and its shareholders reveals its deeply partisan nature.
4. Shareholders: looking forward, it's time to focus on what truly matters – the future of your investment in Sinovac
Sinovac needs a Board that will roll up its sleeves and run the business, guiding the Company forward on a stable, productive path. The slate put forward by SAIF, consisting of representatives from all shareholders owning more than 5% of the Company's equity stake, many of whom possess deep industry experience, achieves exactly that.
We urge all shareholders to focus on the future and choose the leadership that will best secure our Company's success in the years to come. We look forward to continuing to make our case for change to our fellow shareholders and encourage them to wait for and read SAIF's proxy materials before voting for the Special Meeting on July 8, 2025.
Sincerely,Prime Success, L.P.

1 Energy Stock With a Dividend Yield Over 7% Right Now
MPLX has a much higher dividend yield than the average energy stock. The master limited partnership's payout is on a sustainable foundation. It has been growing its earnings and distribution at healthy rates, and should continue to do so. 10 stocks we like better than MPLX › The energy sector can be a great place for income investors to find higher-yielding options. The average energy stock in the S&P 500 has a yield of around 3% at its current share price, which is more than double the 1.3% yield of the broad market index. Many energy stocks have even higher yields. One of them is MPLX (NYSE: MPLX). The midstream energy company yields more than 7% right now. Here's why income investors will want to take a closer look at MPLX. A yield above 7% might seem like a higher-risk income stream at first glance. However, that's not the case with MPLX's payout. The master limited partnership (MLP) has a rock-solid financial foundation supporting its big-time distribution. MPLX has a diversified midstream operation that generates lots of stable cash flow backed by long-term contracts and government-regulated rate structures. It produced nearly $1.5 billion in distributable cash flow during the first quarter -- enough to cover its distribution by a comfortable 1.5 times. The MLP produced about $500 million in excess free cash flow during the period. That was enough money to cover its organic capital spending with room to spare. (Its net cash used in investing activities was about $364 million after adjusting for acquisitions.) MPLX also has a robust balance sheet. It ended the first quarter with a leverage ratio of 3.3. That's comfortably below the 4.0 or so ratio its stable cash flows can support. MPLX stands out among higher-yielding dividend stocks because it's growing at a healthy clip. Its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) rose by 7% in the first quarter. Meanwhile, its distributable cash flow was up 8.5%. The company has been growing its earnings and cash flow at a nearly 7% compound annual rate since 2021. That strong growth, along with the company's top-notch financial profile, has allowed MPLX to increase its distribution at a 10.7% compound annual rate since 2021, including by 12.5% last year. The MLP has plenty more growth coming down the pipeline. It has secured several new investments this year. MPLX and its partners recently made a final investment decision to build the Traverse Pipeline, which should enter commercial service in 2027. It's also building two Gulf Coast fractionators and a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) export terminal, expanding its BANGL pipeline, building the Blackcomb and Rio Bravo pipelines, and constructing two more natural gas processing plants. These projects have in-service dates through 2029, giving the MLP lots of visibility into its earnings growth. "We continue to anticipate mid-teen returns on these projects, which will support mid-single digit adjusted EBITDA growth," said CEO Maryann Mannen in the first-quarter earnings press release. "This growth is expected to allow us to reinvest in the business and support annual distribution increases in the future." MPLX also continues to use its strong balance sheet to make acquisitions. Early this year, it agreed to buy the 55% of the BANGL pipeline it didn't already own for $715 million, another 5% interest in the Matterhorn Express pipeline for $151 million, and a crude oil gathering system for $237 million. Given its low leverage ratio, it has ample financial flexibility to continue making bolt-on acquisitions as opportunities arise. These and future deals will further enhance its earnings growth rate, giving it more fuel to increase its distribution. MPLX is currently paying over 7%, which is much higher than the average energy stock and the S&P 500. The MLP's big-time payout is on a very sustainable foundation. Further, it should continue growing for the next several years. That makes it a great option for income-seeking investors as long as they are comfortable receiving the Schedule K-1 federal tax form the MLP sends them each year.

Aslan Energy Capital and JIEP Sign Heads of Agreement to Develop East Jakarta's Renewable-Powered Hyperscale Data Center
JAKARTA, Indonesia, June 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Aslan Energy Capital (AEC), a Singapore-based developer of clean energy infrastructure, has signed a binding Heads of Agreement (HoA) with Jakarta Industrial Estate Pulogadung (JIEP) to develop the Aslan Jakarta Data Centre (AJDC)—a state-of-the-art, 40-megawatt hyperscale co-location facility powered entirely by certified renewable energy. Strategically located in East Jakarta within the JIEP industrial zone, AJDC will sit on a 40,000 m² site and is designed to house up to 7,000 server racks. The Tier 4 data center will be operational by Q4 2027 and will feature adequate redundancy for all critical systems, ensuring maximum uptime and operational resilience. In a landmark move for Jakarta's data infrastructure, the facility will also integrate a 120 MW-hour Battery Energy Storage System and draw its primary power supply from renewable energy sourced thru the JIEP collaboration, demonstrating a robust commitment to energy sustainability and climate-aligned growth. AJDC is being developed as next-generation colocation data center providing ultra-reliable uptime, reduced latency, and robust connectivity for enterprises operating locally and worldwide. Dr. Muthu Chezhian, CEO of Aslan Energy Capital, stated, "This partnership reflects our shared vision to power the digital future with clean, reliable, and scalable infrastructure that respects environmental limits while enabling economic transformation." In alignment with Jakarta's urban planning and environmental needs, the facility is designed as a two-story vertical structure utilizing modular and prefabricated components for rapid deployment and minimal construction impact. With 40% of the land dedicated to built infrastructure and 60% preserved as a natural corridor featuring century-old trees, AJDC is designed to be green -both in function and in form. In addition, the data center will utilize hybrid air-cooled heat exchangers, a significant innovation that removes reliance on cooling towers and sharply reduces daily water use. Satrio Witjaksono, President Director of JIEP, commented, "We are proud to collaborate with Aslan Energy Capital to introduce a new model for sustainable data infrastructure within Indonesia's most strategic industrial estate. This project will contribute to national digital transformation goals while setting new environmental standards." This alliance underlines both entities' commitment to Indonesia's renewable energy transition and smart industrial development, in line with the national roadmap for sustainability, digitalization, and green economy leadership.
