Item 8.01 | Other Events |
On August 18, 2025, the Board of Directors of VIVIC Corp. ("VIVIC") adopted a resolution for the dissolution of its representative office, VIVIC Corp. Taiwan Branch ("VIVIC Taiwan"), an entity formed under the laws of the Republic of China ("Taiwan"). VIVIC Taiwan has been mainly engaged in yacht procurement, sales, and leasing services in Taiwan and other countries.
A Certificate of Dissolution was filed on August 19, 2025, and was approved by the regulatory authorities on August 21, 2025. The reason for the dissolution was due to Taiwan government's policy of prohibiting importing ships from China, where our main suppliers are. In August 2025, the Company determined to concentrate its operations in the United States and Southeast Asia and to discontinue pursuing the Taiwan market. As required by local procedure, public notices were published on September 26, 2025, September 27, 2025, and September 29, 2025. If no creditor objections are filed within three months following the final publication, the court is expected to issue a certificate of closure, after which the Company intends to close the branch bank account and complete deregistration. Subject to these conditions, the Company currently expects completion by year-end 2025.
The anticipated effects of the dissolution of VIVIC Taiwan on VIVIC's business performance are not significant as VIVIC seeks alternative jurisdictions to continue its operations. However, actual results may differ as discussed under "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" below.
