Introductory Note
 
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. Following the issuance of the Order, the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) halted trading in the Company's Ordinary Shares effective September 23, 2022, and such trading halt remains in effect as of the date hereof.

Since their appointment, the JPLs have furnished three reports on their work to the Court (on October 21, 2022, December 1, 2022 and March 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-

NYSE Notice Regarding Failure to File Interim Financials
 
On April 3, 2023, the Company received a notice (the “Notice”) from the NYSE with respect to its failure to timely file on Form 6-K its semi-annual financials for the six-month period ended September 30, 2022 (the “Interim Financials”) as required by NYSE Listing Standard 203.03. As the JPLs’ investigations into the Company’s financial position is ongoing, the Company was unable to timely file the Interim Financials. The Company cannot at this time estimate the anticipated filing date of the Interim Financials.

In accordance with applicable NYSE rules, the Company has until September 30, 2023, to regain compliance with the NYSE listing standards by filing the Interim Financials on Form 6-K (and any subsequent delayed filings). In addition, upon the Company’s request, the NYSE may in its sole discretion extend that period for up to an additional six months until March 31, 2024, without commencing delisting procedures.
