As previously announced, the Company received a notification letter from the Nasdaq dated August 21, 2024, indicating its failure to maintain a minimum bid price of US$1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days under Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

To comply with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, the closing bid price of the Company's ordinary shares must be at least US$1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days at any time prior to February 17, 2025.
