On May 8, 2023, HF Foods Group Inc stated that it has Commented on the filing on behalf of the Irrevocable Trust for Raymond Ni, Weihui Kwok and Yuanyuan Wu, which contains various material misstatements, inaccuracies, and omissions, and reflect a fundamental misunderstanding of Delaware corporate law. In addition, the Company stated that previously announced, the deadline for stockholders to make a valid proposal or director nomination for consideration at the annual meeting was April 10, 2023, and Raymond Ni's nomination submission materials, which were first submitted on such date, were materially defective, and as such were invalid, under the Company's bylaws and the nominating stockholders were informed of this determination on April 11, 2023, and have not challenged or contested that determination publicly or privately with the Company before Raymond Ni's recent filing of the preliminary proxy statement and related Schedule 13D/A. Further, the Company stated that it looks forward to the participation of stockholders at the annual meeting and encourages stockholders to vote by proxy or attend the annual meeting virtually, as further described in the proxy statement, to ensure that your vote is received and counted.
