EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

AnPac Bio-Medical Science Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) received a Staff determination letter (the “Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC dated January 13, 2023, notifying the Company of the Staff’s determination to delist the Company’s securities from The Nasdaq Capital Market because of the Company’s failure to comply with the minimum $2.5 million stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

Pursuant to the Letter, unless the Company requests an appeal of the Letter, trading of the Company’s American Depositary Shares will be suspended at the opening of business on January 24, 2023, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on the Nasdaq Stock Market.

 

The Company intends to appeal the Staff’s determination to a Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). Such a request will allow the Company’s American Depositary Shares to continue to be traded (listed) pending the Panel’s decision.
