Anhui Province Natural Gas Development (603689.SH) Announcement: On October 17, 2022, the company received a "Registration Acceptance Notification" issued by the Bank of China Interbank Market Dealers Association. The Bank of China Interbank Market Dealers Association agreed to register the company's ultra-short-term financing instruments (amounting to 800 million RMB), short-term financing instruments (amounting to 500 million RMB), and medium-term notes (amounting to 1.5 billion RMB), with the registration limit valid for 2 years from the date of the notification (September 15, 2022). It is reported that the company has been actively promoting the issuance of ultra-short-term financing instruments, short-term financing instruments, and medium-term notes since receiving the above-mentioned "Registration Acceptance Notification". Due to the company's good cash flow situation in recent years, sufficient bank credit, and various factors such as effective loan rates and terms that can meet the company's funding needs, the company was unable to implement the issuance of ultra-short-term financing instruments, short-term financing instruments, and medium-term notes within the valid registration period. The above-mentioned registration limits automatically expire at the end of the period.
