On August 12, 2025, Mrs. Lorri Kelley provided notice of her resignation to the board of directors (the “Board”) of GigaCloud Technology Inc (the “Company” or “GigaCloud”), effective August 16, 2025. Mrs. Kelly served as the Chair to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Nominating & Corporate Governance Committee”) of the Board, as well as member to the Audit Committee and member to the Compensation Committee. Mrs. Kelley will remain as an advisor until September 30, 2025 to assist with the transition of her responsibilities. Mrs. Kelley resigned voluntarily, and not as a result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, practices or policies. The Board is grateful to Mrs. Kelley for her service and contributions to the Company.
As a result of Mrs. Kelley’s resignation, on August 13, 2025, in accordance with the recommendation of the Nominating & Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, the Board approved and elected Mr. Kenneth E Lebensburger Jr., Kerry, as a director to fill the vacancy on the Board, effective as of August 17, 2025. The Board’s total number of directors remains at five. The Board has determined that Mr. Lebensburger is an independent director as defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2). Mr. Lebensburger shall serve as the Chair of the Nominating & Corporate Governance Committee, and member to the Audit Committee and member to the Compensation Committee. Mr. Lebensburger shall receive compensation for his service on the Board and any of its committees in accordance with the Company’s non-employee director compensation program.
Mr. Lebensburger, 79, is a furniture industry veteran with over 50 years of experience. Mr. Lebensburger served a long tenure at Ashley Furniture for over 30 years until 2023, holding several key positions from Vice President of Sales, President of the Upholstery division, to President of Sales and Marketing. Mr. Lebensburger received his bachelor’s degree from Wharton School of Commerce, University of Pennsylvania in 1968 and his MBA from University of Cincinnati in 1969.
There is no family relationship between Mr. Lebensburger and any of the Company’s existing directors and officers. There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Lebensburger and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Lebensburger was appointed the Company’s director. There has been no transaction, nor is there any currently proposed transaction, between Mr. Lebensburger and the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
The Company issued a press release on August 18, 2025 announcing the appointment of Mr. Lebensburger to the Board. A copy of this press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
