LAKESHORE ANNOUNCES COURT DISMISSAL OF FORMER CHAIRMAN’S INJUNCTION APPLICATIONS
LakeShore Biopharma Co., Ltd. (“LakeShore” or the “Company”) today announced the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands (the “Court”) had dismissed all interim injunctive relief applications filed by former Chairman Mr. Yi Zhang in Case No. FSD 318 of 2024 following comprehensive hearings between December 2024 and March 2025.
The legal action originated on October 31, 2024, when Mr. Zhang sought three interim injunctions against the Company: (i) an order preventing the Company from issuing share capital or causing Mr. Zhang’s shareholding in the Company to be diluted without giving Mr. Zhang 7-days’ prior notice, (ii) an order preventing the Company, or any of its subsidiaries, from entering into transactions exceeding US$50,000 outside ordinary business operations without giving Mr. Zhang 7-days’ prior notice, and (iii) a Property Preservation Order pursuant to Grant Court Rule Order 29, rule 2(1) seeking to restrain the Company’s dealing with its own assets.
Judicial proceedings progressed through hearings on December 13, 2024 and January 21 and 22, 2025, culminating in the final hearing and judgment delivery on March 21, 2025.
Chief Justice Margaret Ramsay-Hale dismissed all applications, establishing three key determinations: (i) the Court found no evidentiary basis for Mr. Zhang’s claims of a threat of improper share dilution, affirming the Company’s share consolidation and potential equity financing as legitimate operational strategies, (ii) there was no legal or factual basis for the requested restrictions on the conduct of the Company’s business and group business, and (iii) Mr. Zhang has no proprietary interest in the Company’s property.
The Company has asked the Court to order that Mr. Zhang pay its costs of these hearings. A costs ruling is pending.
