Investors inquire about YH Technology's plan to acquire remaining shares of its subsidiary, Skoal, on the interactive platform.

An investor on the investor interaction platform asked WinsTech: Hello. Looking at the first-quarter report, it seems that the holding subsidiary, Skor, has performed exceptionally well. Is there any consideration to acquire the remaining shares? Also, what are the plans for Skor's future development?


On August 1st, Winhope Technology stated on its investor interaction platform that it is currently not considering acquiring the remaining shares of Skorel.
