CooTek Updates Status Under Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act And Will 'continue to monitor market developments and evaluate all strategic options.'
CooTek (Cayman) Inc. (NYSE:CTK) ("CooTek" or the "Company"), a global mobile internet company, today updates its status under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the "HFCAA").
全球移動互聯網公司觸寶科技(開曼)股份有限公司(紐約證券交易所股票代碼：CTK)(“觸寶科技”或“本公司”)今日根據《外國公司問責法》(以下簡稱《HFCAA》)更新其地位。
On May 4, 2022, in connection with its implementation of the HFCAA, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") provisionally named the Company as a Commission-Identified Issuer following the Company's filing of its annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (the "2021 Form 20-F") with the SEC on April 29, 2022.
在公司於2022年4月29日向美國證券交易委員會提交了截至2021年12月31日的財政年度的Form 20-F年度報告(“2021年Form 20-F”)後，針對其實施HFCAA，美國證券交易委員會(以下簡稱“美國證券交易委員會”)暫時將本公司指定為委員會指定的發行人。
The Company understands the SEC made such identification pursuant to the HFCAA, which states if the SEC determines that a company has filed audit reports issued by a registered public accounting firm that cannot be inspected or investigated completely by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the "PCAOB"), for three consecutive years beginning in 2021, the SEC shall prohibit its shares or American depositary shares from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the U.S. The Company has previously disclosed that its auditor, the independent registered public accounting firm that issued the audit report included in its 2021 Form 20-F, is identified by PCAOB as one of the registered public accounting firms that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely.
本公司理解美國證券交易委員會是根據《美國上市公司會計準則》做出此類識別的，該《財務會計準則》規定，如果美國證券交易委員會認定一家公司自2021年起連續三年提交了不能被上市公司會計監督委員會徹底檢查或調查的註冊會計師事務所出具的審計報告，美國證券交易委員會應禁止其股票或美國存托股份在美國全國證券交易所或場外交易市場交易。美國證券交易委員會此前曾披露，其審計師，即出具包括在其2021年20-F表中的審計報告的獨立註冊會計師事務所，被PCAOB確定為PCAOB無法徹底檢查或調查的註冊會計師事務所之一。
The Company will continue to monitor market developments and evaluate all strategic options.
公司將繼續關注市場發展並評估所有戰略選擇。
