Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On September 8, 2025, Avalon GloboCare Corp. (the “Company”) updated its investor presentation that may be presented at meetings with investors, analysts, and others, in whole or in part and possibly with modifications, from time to time. As previously disclosed, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with YOOV Group Holding Limited, a business company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“YOOV”), and the other parties named in the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which YOOV will survive the merger and become a wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”).
The investor presentation contains additional information regarding YOOV, including certain preliminary financial data with respect to YOOV. The actual amounts that YOOV will report will be subject to its financial closing procedures and any final adjustments that may be made prior to the time its audited financial results for the year ended March 31, 2025 are finalized and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The preliminary financial data included therein has been prepared by, and is the responsibility of, the management of YOOV. YOOV’s independent registered public accounting firm has not audited, reviewed, compiled, or applied agreed-upon procedures with respect to the preliminary financial data and, accordingly, does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto. This estimate should not be viewed as a substitute for audited financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. It does not reflect any updates following March 31, 2025, or consider any events or circumstances after the date that it was prepared, and is not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved in any future period. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on this preliminary estimate.
The investor presentation is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The information included in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. The information set forth under this Item 7.01 shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information in this Current Report on Form 8-K that is required to be disclosed solely to satisfy the requirements of Regulation FD.
No Offer or Solicitation
This communication shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, or a solicitation of any proxy, consent, authorization, vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
Additional Information About the Proposed Merger for Investors and Shareholders
This communication relates to the proposed Merger of the Company and YOOV. In connection with the proposed Merger, the Company has filed relevant materials with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including a Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended, that contains a preliminary prospectus and preliminary proxy statement of the Company (the “proxy statement/prospectus”). This Registration Statement has not yet been declared effective and the Company has filed or may file other documents regarding the proposed Merger with the SEC. This report is not a substitute for the proxy statement/prospectus or for any other document that the Company has filed or may file with the SEC in connection with the proposed Merger. No offering of securities shall be made, except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS AND OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC, AS WELL AS ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS TO THESE DOCUMENTS, CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY, BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION THAT STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD CONSIDER BEFORE MAKING ANY DECISION REGARDING THE PROPOSED MERGER. A definitive proxy statement/prospectus will be sent to the Company’s stockholders. Investors and security holders will be able to obtain these documents (when available) free of charge from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. In addition, investors and stockholders should note that the Company communicates with investors and the public using its website (https://www.avalon-globocare.com), the investor relations website (https://www.avalon-globocare.com/investors) where anyone will be able to obtain free copies of the proxy statement/prospectus and other documents filed by the Company with the SEC, and stockholders are urged to read the proxy statement/prospectus and the other relevant materials when they become available before making any voting or investment decision with respect to the proposed Merger.
Participants in the Solicitation
The Company, YOOV and their respective directors and executive officers and other members of management and employees and certain of their respective significant stockholders may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the Company and YOOV stockholders in respect of the proposed Merger. Information about the Company’s directors and executive officers is available in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025. Information regarding the persons who may, under the rules of the SEC, be deemed participants in the proxy solicitation and a description of their direct and indirect interests, by security holding or otherwise, has been and will be contained in the proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant materials to be filed with the SEC regarding the proposed Merger when they become available. Investors should read the definitive proxy statement/prospectus carefully when it becomes available before making any voting or investment decisions. You may obtain free copies of these documents from the SEC and the Company as indicated above.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K and the investor presentation attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 contain forward-looking statements based upon the Company’s and YOOV’s current expectations. This communication contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are identified by terminology such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “project,” “plan,” “expect,” “goal,” “seek,” “future,” “likely” or the negative or plural of these words or similar expressions. These statements are only predictions. The Company and YOOV have based these forward-looking statements largely on their then-current expectations and projections about future events, as well as the beliefs and assumptions of management. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which involve factors or circumstances that are beyond each of the Company’s and YOOV’s control, and actual results could differ materially from those stated or implied in forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the conditions to the closing or consummation of the proposed Merger are not satisfied, including the failure to obtain stockholder approval for the proposed Merger; (ii) uncertainties as to the timing of the consummation of the proposed Merger and the ability of each of the Company and YOOV to consummate the transactions contemplated by the proposed Merger; (iii) risks related to the Company’s and YOOV’s ability to correctly estimate their respective operating expenses and expenses associated with the proposed Merger, as applicable, as well as uncertainties regarding the impact any delay in the closing would have on the anticipated cash resources of the resulting combined company upon closing and other events and unanticipated spending and costs that could reduce the combined company’s cash resources; (iv) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance or condition that could give rise to the termination of the proposed Merger by either the Company or YOOV; (v) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the proposed Merger on the Company’s or YOOV’s business relationships, operating results and business generally; (vi) costs related to the proposed Merger; (vii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company, YOOV, or any of their respective directors or officers related to the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby; (viii) the ability of the Company or YOOV to protect their respective intellectual property rights; (ix) competitive responses to the proposed Merger; (x) unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the proposed Merger; (xi) whether the combined business of YOOV and the Company will be successful; (xii) legislative, regulatory, political and economic developments; and (xiii) additional risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and the Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended, filed with the SEC and subsequent filings made with the SEC. Additional assumptions, risks and uncertainties are described in detail in the Company’s registration statements, reports and other filings with the SEC, which are available on the Company’s website, and at www.sec.gov. Accordingly, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Neither the Company nor YOOV can assure you that the events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements made in this communication relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Company and YOOV undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Investors should not assume that any lack of update to a previously issued “forward-looking statement” constitutes a reaffirmation of that statement.
