SECTION 7 – REGULATION FD
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
On October 20, 2023, FingerMotion, Inc. (the “Company” or “FingerMotion”) issued a news release to announce that a federal lawsuit has been filed against Capybara Research (“Capybara”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The Complaint filed against Capybara alleges that Capybara maliciously published a defamatory article in a premediated attempt to move the public market for FingerMotion’s stock lower to benefit from their previously announced short position. The complaint alleges securities fraud violations, defamation, and interference with business under federal and state laws.
“We are committed to understanding what has been happening to our stock,” stated Martin Shen, CEO of FingerMotion. “This action was initiated to reel in any potential unlawful interference with our Company’s public market for its stock”.
The Company had announced on October 5, 2023 that it retained Mark R. Basile, Esq, and his securities and RICO litigation firm, The Basile Law Firm P.C., to assist the Company in investigating recent activities surrounding the Company’s stock performance and to take the necessary legal action to prevent potential market participants utilizing unlawful means from further hurting the Company’s shareholders.
A copy of the news release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
