NEW YORK, June 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Levi & Korsinsky, LLP alerts investors in Regencell Bioscience Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: RGC) of a pending securities class action. Class Period: October 28, 2024 through October 31, 2025. Find out if you qualify to recover losses or contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at jlevi@levikorsinsky.com | (212) 363-7500.
Two senior officers of Regencell are named as individual defendants in a securities class action alleging they personally signed misleading SEC certifications while the Company's stock experienced a 48,650% surge disconnected from business fundamentals. RGC shares fell $3.09 per share, or 18.56%, after the Company disclosed a DOJ subpoena on October 31, 2025. The Court has set June 23, 2026 as the deadline to apply for lead plaintiff appointment.
The Named Individual Defendants
The complaint names Yat-Gai Au, Regencell's founder, Chairman, and CEO, and Michelle Chan, the Company's Financial Controller, as individual defendants. The action contends that both officers possessed the power and authority to control the contents of Regencell's SEC filings, press releases, and other market communications. Au personally owned 88.6% of Regencell's outstanding shares as of June 30, 2025, giving him an outsized personal financial stake in the Company's share price.
Section 20(a) Control Person Framework
Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 imposes liability on individuals who "controlled" a company that violated federal securities laws. The pleading asserts that Au and Chan, by virtue of their senior positions and authority over corporate disclosures, acted as controlling persons of Regencell. As averred in the complaint, both defendants were provided with copies of SEC filings and press releases prior to or shortly after issuance and had the ability to prevent their issuance or cause them to be corrected.
Sarbanes-Oxley Certification Obligations
Scienter Allegations
The complaint charges that Defendants had both motive and opportunity to commit fraud. Regencell transformed from a penny-stock company trading below $1.00 per share into an entity with an approximately $14 billion market value despite having twelve employees, zero revenue, and no approved products. Au's controlling ownership stake meant this surge translated directly into a massive increase in his personal net worth, creating strong incentive to avoid disclosures that could destabilize the share price.
