Insights

Compensation and Governance Analyst

Company furnished its 2025 equity plan as Exhibit 99.1, signed by the CEO.

The filing shows that the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan was provided as an exhibit and formally executed by the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Jiancong Huang, on August 21, 2025. The document included in this submission is limited to the plan itself rather than financial disclosures or transaction specifics.

The primary dependency for any investor impact is the plan's actual terms (award sizes, dilution limits, vesting schedules), which are not present in the text provided. Expect material investor-relevant details only if the plan text (Exhibit 99.1) discloses grant authorizations, share reserve amounts, or immediate awards; those items would be monitorable when the exhibit is reviewed.
