BEIJING, June 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Hollysys Automation Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: HOLI) (“Hollysys” or the “Company”) today announced the appointment of Vocation HK CPA Limited (“Vocation”) as its independent registered public accounting firm, effective May 28, 2024.

The appointment of Vocation was made after a careful and thorough evaluation process and has been approved by Hollysys’ board and audit committee.

Vocation will replace Union Power HK CPA Limited (“Union Power”) as Hollysys’ independent registered public accounting firm. As previously disclosed, on April 12, 2024, Union Power notified Hollysys that due to the sudden deterioration of the health condition of their managing partner, they determine to cease providing financial statement audit services to all U.S. public companies, and therefore would resign as Hollysys’ independent certified public accounting firm, with immediate effect. The resignation of Union Power was not the result of any disagreement between Hollysys and Union Power on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.

Update on Merger Transaction

As previously disclosed, the Company entered into a merger agreement to be acquired by a buyer controlled by Ascendent Capital Partners (“ACP”). The Company and ACP reaffirm their strong commitment to closing the merger and continue to progress toward satisfying closing conditions to consummate the transaction in accordance with the merger agreement.
