GUANGZHOU, China, Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Yatsen Holding Limited ("Yatsen" or the "Company") (NYSE: YSG), a leading Chinese beauty company, today announced that it has received a letter from the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") dated August 1, 2022 (the "August Letter"), notifying the Company that it has regained compliance with the NYSE's continued listing criterion of a minimum share price as set forth in Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual (the "NYSE Minimum Price Continued Listing Criterion").

As previously announced, the Company received a letter from the NYSE dated April 11, 2022, notifying the Company that it was below compliance standards due to the average closing price of the Company's American depositary shares being less than $1.00 for a consecutive 30 trading-day period. Following the receipt of the August Letter, the Company is no longer considered below the NYSE Minimum Price Continued Listing Criterion and has regained compliance regarding this matter.
