Company Aligns National Sales Strategy and Performance Accountability to Accelerate Market Penetration Ahead of Spring Planting Season

BEIJING, March 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Origin Agritech Ltd. (NASDAQ: SEED) (the “Company” or “Origin”), a leading Chinese agricultural technology company, today announced the official launch of its “Aoyun 2026” new variety promotion program, a major commercial initiative designed to accelerate the market adoption of its latest high-performing seed products. The formal launch was held at the conclusion of its 2026 Annual Marketing Executive Conference, held March 2–3, 2026 in Changsha, Hunan Province.

The Aoyun 2026 project is a core commercial vehicle for advancing newer varieties into broader planting markets in 2026. Weiwei Shi, General Manager of Henan Origin, was appointed as General Commander of the Aoyun 2026 project. The program will be executed in coordination with all of Origin’s subsidiary companies, with the stated objective of driving higher value for growers through next-generation seed varieties.

The launch is consistent with the product pipeline priorities the Company has established heading into the 2026 selling season. Origin’s research pipeline is stocked with competitive germplasm, and commercialization of GMO and gene-editing technologies is being accelerated through Origin’s strategic alliance with China Golden-mark Biotech. During fiscal year 2025, Origin launched four new corn varieties — Jingke 317, Jinqiao 8, Xundan 203, and Aoyu 728 — with multiple national and provincial trial approvals received.

National Regional Deployment Plans Finalized

Also taking place during the conference, regional teams from Henan, Shandong, Anhui, Jiangsu, Hubei, the Northeast provinces, and Xinjiang each presented and finalized their respective annual campaign plans. The collective deployment spans Origin’s primary target markets, covering the Huanghuai Hai corn belt, the Northeast four-province corn corridor, and markets in central and northwest China.

The regional rollout timing aligns with China’s spring planting season, which officially began after Jingzhe — the traditional solar term marking the reawakening of the agricultural cycle — on March 5, 2026.

The conference also included substantive discussion of Origin’s online and offline channel integration strategy, with specific attention to the operating model of the Company’s “Golden Harvest Club” distributor alliance — a strategic initiative Origin launched in fiscal year 2025 to strengthen relationships across its distribution ecosystem.

Performance Accountability Contracts Signed for 2026–2027

A central focus of the conference was the formal signing of performance accountability contracts covering fiscal years 2026 and 2027. Origin CEO Weibin Yan and Vice President Yubiao Liu signed contracts with the Company’s core management team and subsidiary general managers, committing each unit to specific operational and financial targets. Vice President and Marketing Director Jing Dou subsequently signed individual agreements with each subsidiary general manager, establishing clear accountability chains across Origin’s distribution and sales organization.

The contract-signing process formalizes accountability structures across Origin’s commercial organization following a year of significant rebuilding. During fiscal year 2025, the Company expanded its sales team from 63 to 106 professionals, completed leadership restructuring, and secured Beijing Origin’s seed production operation license. The performance contracts are designed to convert that rebuilt infrastructure into measurable commercial results in the seasons ahead.

Management Commentary

“The launch of ‘Aoyun 2026’ represents a pivotal moment for Origin Agritech, marking our transition from a period of rebuilding to a new era of aggressive commercial execution,” said Weibin Yan, CEO of Origin Agritech. “We have spent the last year meticulously assembling the core assets for success: a world-class sales organization, a product pipeline stocked with elite germplasm, and a disciplined accountability framework that aligns the entire company around a single goal — market penetration. ‘Aoyun 2026’ is the engine that will convert these assets into tangible shareholder value. We are providing our growers with the next-generation technology they need to thrive, and in doing so, we are positioning Origin to capture market share in the seasons ahead.”

BEIJING, March 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Autozi Internet Technology (Global) Ltd. (Nasdaq: AZI) (“Autozi” or the “Company”) today announced that, following communication and confirmation with its co-investors, the delivery of the first tranche of the recently committed additional investment, consisting of assets valued at approximately $30 million, is expected to commence within this week. This marks the fulfillment of the co-investors’ recent investment commitment to the Company and fully demonstrates the core shareholders’ strong confidence in the Company’s long-term value.

Delivery of First Tranche Assets Commences, Fulfilling Investment Commitment

According to the announcement jointly published by the Company, its controlling shareholder, and co-investors on March 9, 2026, the controlling shareholder and co-investors committed to an additional investment of approximately $110 million at a price of $1.30 per share, specifically dedicated to supplementing the Company’s liquidity, accelerating strategic expansion, and optimizing its capital structure. The upcoming delivery of $30 million in assets represents the first tranche of this committed investment, marking another significant capital support from core investors within a short period, following the full receipt of the controlling shareholder’s previous $7 million investment.

The Company stated that the swift commencement of this first tranche delivery from co-investors fully demonstrates that the core investors’ commitment to the Company is not merely an expression of intent but a tangible capital action, showcasing their firm resolve to progress alongside the Company and pursue shared long-term development.

Injection of First Tranche Assets to Empower Company Development Across Multiple Dimensions

The upcoming injection of $30 million in assets is expected to positively impact the Company across several dimensions:

1. Significantly Enhancing Liquidity Reserves and Improving Financial Safety Margins

The newly injected assets will directly supplement the Company’s liquidity reserves, strengthen its financial safety cushion, and provide greater financial resilience and risk resistance in the face of industry cyclical fluctuations, supply chain cost adjustments, and macroeconomic uncertainties.

Ample liquidity will provide solid support for daily operations, ensuring the stability and continuity of core businesses.

2. Accelerating Core Business Expansion and Deepening Strategic Layout

Expanding Automotive Aftermarket Service Networks: A portion of the assets will be used to increase investment in regional operation centers, offline service outlets, and logistics distribution systems, enhancing service coverage density and response efficiency, further consolidating the Company’s leading position in the automotive aftermarket.

Enhancing Digital Platform Capabilities: The asset value will support the in-depth application of big data, cloud computing, and AI tools in supply chain management, customer profiling, and intelligent matching, improving platform operational efficiency and user experience, and strengthening technological barriers.

Optimizing and Integrating Supply Chain Systems: The Company will strengthen strategic coordination with core suppliers, optimize procurement cost structures, improve inventory turnover rates and order fulfillment capabilities, and enhance supply chain stability and cost advantages.

Supporting High-Potential Business Segments: Concentrating resources on regional markets and specialized business lines with strong profitability and growth potential to create new engines for medium-to-long-term performance growth.

3. Optimizing Capital Structure and Enhancing Financial Flexibility

As an equity capital injection, these assets will help reduce the Company’s reliance on interest-bearing debt, optimize its asset-liability structure, and improve financial leverage levels, providing greater flexibility for potential future mergers and acquisitions, strategic partnerships, and further capital market activities.

Strong Confidence and Continued Support

Company management stated: “The upcoming delivery of the co-investors’ first tranche of $30 million in assets is another significant endorsement of the Company’s development by our core investors, following the controlling shareholder’s completion of the previous $7 million investment. This not only reflects the investors’ strong trust in our business model, strategic direction, and management team’s execution capabilities but also demonstrates their determination to fulfill commitments through concrete actions. In the current capital market environment, such a swift and substantial injection of assets is undeniably the strongest positive signal being sent to the market. We express our sincere gratitude for this support and will fully utilize the value of these assets to accelerate our strategic implementation and create greater value for our shareholders.”

Clear Market Signal, Building Long-Term Value Together

The Company believes that the rapid commencement of this first tranche delivery sends multiple clear signals to the market:

Long-Term Confidence in Intrinsic Value: The co-investors’ investment at a price above the current secondary market trading level, coupled with the swift delivery of the first tranche in the form of assets, fully demonstrates their independent judgment and steadfast position on the Company’s true value.

Sustained Support for Development Strategy: The asset value is explicitly designated for liquidity supplementation and business expansion, directly targeting the acceleration of the Company’s core strategic direction and injecting strong momentum into medium-to-long-term development.

Full Trust in Governance and Management Team: The consecutive injections of assets demonstrate the core investors’ high recognition of the existing management team’s execution capabilities, strategic vision, and corporate governance standards.

Sufficient capital support in the form of assets will provide strong momentum for the orderly implementation of the Company’s medium-to-long-term development strategy, assist the Company in further consolidating its leading position in the automotive aftermarket, seize industry development opportunities, and create sustainable long-term value for shareholders.

The Company will continue to maintain close communication with its co-investors to ensure the smooth progression of subsequent investment installments and will keep the market informed of relevant developments in a timely manner, in strict compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and Nasdaq rules.
