NEW YORK, July 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lucas GC Limited (NASDAQ:LGCL) ("Lucas" or the "Company"), an artificial intelligence (the "AI") technology-driven Platform-as-a-Service (the "PaaS") company whose technologies have been applied to the human resources and insurance industry verticals, today announced updates to its recent financing plans.

The Company previously announced that it entered into an At the Market Offering Agreement (the "Sales Agreement") with Maxim Group LLC (the "Agent") with respect to an at-the-market offering program (the "ATM Offering Program"), under which it may offer and sell, from time to time at its sole discretion, Class A ordinary shares, par value US$0.0002 per share of the Company (the "Class A ordinary shares"), having an aggregate offering price of up to US$20.0 million through or to the Agent, as the sales agent or principal. In addition, the Company previously announced the launch of a proposed public offering of its Class A ordinary shares, ordinary warrants and pre-funded warrants (the "Proposed Public Offering").

After further evaluating current market conditions, its capital structure and expected financing costs, the Company has decided to terminate the ATM Offering Program and discontinue the Proposed Public Offering. No securities have been issued or sold under, or in connection with, either the ATM Offering Program or the Proposed Public Offering.

The Company believes that maintaining flexibility under its existing financing arrangement, while discontinuing the ATM Offering Program and the Proposed Public Offering at this time, is the more prudent course in light of prevailing market conditions and the Company’s current capital planning priorities.

The Company will continue to evaluate financing alternatives and other capital planning initiatives to support its long-term growth, liquidity position and shareholder value.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of any 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.
