On September 22, 2022, the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands (the “Court”) issued an order appointing Margot MacInnis and John Royle of Grant Thornton Specialist Services (Cayman) Limited, and Chow Tsz Nga Georgia of Grant Thornton Recovery & Reorganisation Limited, as joint provisional liquidators (the “JPLs”) of Global Cord Blood Corporation (the “Company”) pursuant to Section 104(2) of the Companies Act (as amended) of the Cayman Islands.

Since their appointment, the JPLs have furnished four reports on their work to the Court (on October 21, 2022, December 1, 2022, March 1, 2023 and June 1, 2023), copies of which are available on the Company’s website https://ir.globalcordbloodcorporation.com, as well as on the JPLs’ estate portal:  https://www.grantthornton.ca/en/service/advisory/creditor-updates/#Global-Cord-Blood-

As the JPLs’ investigations into the Company’s financial position is ongoing, the Company was unable to timely file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the Company’s fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 (the 2023 Annal Report”) without unreasonable effort or expense. The Company cannot at this time estimate the anticipated filing date of the 2023 Annual Report.
