In May 2022, the Company was conclusively identified by the SEC as a Commission-Identified Issuer pursuant to the HFCAA because it filed an annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 with the SEC on April 27, 2022 with an audit report issued by PricewaterhouseCoopers Zhong Tian LLP, a registered public accounting firm previously retained by the Company for the preparation of the audit report on the Company’s financial statements included therein. PricewaterhouseCoopers Zhong Tian LLP, our previous auditor, is a registered public accounting firm headquartered in mainland China, a jurisdiction where the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) determined that it was unable to inspect or investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered there until December 2022 when the PCAOB vacated its previous determination.
