Profile

ATA Creativity GlobalAACGConsumer Discretionary

Operates as a Nasdaq-listed Cayman Islands holding company after selling the subsidiaries that ran its creative-arts education services in China. The disposition removed all operating revenue and costs from its pro forma accounts, leaving parent-level assets, liabilities, corporate management, and public-company compliance.

Operates as a Cayman Islands public holding company after selling the subsidiaries and related assets that ran its creative-arts education business in China. The disposed operations provided portfolio training, research-based learning, overseas study counselling, in-school art classes, and junior art education; none remains a consolidated business line.

Following the transaction, all operating revenue, direct costs, sales expenses, and related administrative expenses were removed from the pro forma accounts. The latest post-transaction filing describes the remaining scope as parent-level assets and liabilities, corporate management, regulatory compliance, and public-company disclosure.

A subsequent private placement supplied new capital, but the latest filings identify no replacement operating business or revenue source.
