SHENZHEN, China, Sept. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UTime Limited (the "Company" or “Utime”) (NASDAQ: WTO), a mobile device manufacturer and technology company, today issued a statement to clarify its management and board composition following an unauthorized filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
On September 9, 2025, a fraudulent filing was submitted to the SEC via the SEC’s EDGAR filing system (the "Unauthorized Form 6-K"). This filing falsely claimed that the officers and directors of Utime had resigned and had been replaced by new appointees.
The Company wishes to advise its shareholders, investors, and the public that this filing was not authorized, reviewed, or approved by the Company's leadership. Specifically:
- Mr. Hengcong Qiu remains the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chairman of the Board of the Company and has not resigned.
- Mr. Minfei Bao remains a Director and has not resigned.
- No actions have been taken to change the composition of the Company's Board of Directors.
The current management team remains fully in place. The Board of Directors continues to consist of Messrs. Minfei Bao, Hengcong Qiu, Xiaoqian Jia, Hailin Xie and Yanzhi Wang.
The Company believes this unauthorized filing was made by a former employee who had illicit access to the Company's EDGAR filing codes. This action appears to be a deliberate attempt to interfere with the Company's business operations and stable management.
The Company is taking immediate and decisive actions to rectify this situation, protect the Company's interests, and ensure the security of its regulatory disclosures. These actions include formally notifying the SEC of the fraudulent filing and notifying the proper authorities to investigate this matter.
The Company is committed to transparency and upholding the highest standards of corporate governance. We appreciate the trust of our shareholders and stakeholders and will provide updates as appropriate.
