SHENZHEN, China, Jan. 26, 2026 -- Lianhe Sowell International Group Ltd (Nasdaq: LHSW) (the "Company"), a provider of industrial machine vision products and solutions in China, today announced its strategic plan to invest in and establish its first Specialized Industry Robotics Industrial Headquarters Base in the United Arab Emirates, ("UAE") marking a significant milestone in the Company's global expansion strategy and the advancement of its artificial intelligence–driven robotics business.

According to the strategic plan, the UAE-based headquarters will bring together research and development, manufacturing, and global sales for the Company's specialized industry robotics business, serving customers across international markets. The project will focus on providing high-quality and reliable robotic solutions across several specialized areas, including automotive spray-painting, high-altitude operations, underwater operations, hazardous chemical environments, and remote medical applications. These solutions are intended for use across a wide range of sectors, including industrial manufacturing, energy and chemical processing, public safety, healthcare, and high-end service industries.

Located in the UAE, the headquarters is expected to serve as a regional hub supporting the Company's operations across Asia, Europe, the Americas, and Africa, with a focus on major global markets. The total planned investment for the project is expected to be approximately US$200 million. The project is expected to have a construction period of approximately 18 months and, upon completion, is designed to support an annual production capacity of approximately 50,000 to 80,000 specialized industry robots. Through the establishment of this regional industrial headquarters, the Company aims to better integrate global innovation resources, strengthen its research and manufacturing capabilities, and support the commercialization and international rollout of its advanced robotics technologies.

Mr. Dengyao Jia, Chairman of the Board of Lianhe Sowell International Group Ltd, commented, "This initiative is a key step in advancing our global strategy and reflects how Chinese high-end manufacturing companies are engaging more deeply in global industrial collaboration and competition. The UAE's strong push toward Industry 4.0 and intelligent manufacturing, together with its supportive policies for advanced manufacturing and artificial intelligence, is creating significant market opportunities. In addition, its strategic location and open business environment make it a natural hub linking Asia, Europe, and Africa."

The Company noted that it is actively engaging with local banks and investment funds in the UAE and is seeking financial support for the project. In addition, the Company is exploring potential partnerships and engaging local advisors to prepare for the formation and operationalization of the project. However, given the potential risks and uncertainties associated with the plan, there is no assurances that we will carry out the plan as contemplated or that the contemplated result will be achieved in its entirety.

By leveraging favorable policies, a supportive capital environment, and established global logistics and trade networks, Lianhe Sowell aims to tap the significant market potential across the Asia–Europe–Africa region. As the UAE specialized industry robotics headquarters is developed and becomes operational, the Company expects to further strengthen its global operating capabilities, international competitiveness, and brand presence, while delivering safer, more efficient, and more intelligent solutions to customers worldwide.
