Boqii Provides Update on its Status under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act

SHANGHAI,Aug. 1,2022 -- Boqii Holding Limited ("Boqii" or the "Company") (NYSE: BQ),a leading pet-focused platform in China,today provides an update on its status under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the "HFCAA").

The Company is aware that it has been identified by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act of the United States (the "HFCAA") on July 29,2022. Such identification may have resulted from the Company's filing of the annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31,2022.

The Company understands that theSECmade such identification pursuant to the HFCAA and its implementation rules issued thereunder. This indicates that the SEC has determined that the Company used an auditor,whose working paper cannot be inspected or investigated completely by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Boardofthe United States(the "PCAOB"),to issue the audit opinion for the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31,2022.

In accordance with the HFCAA,a company will be delisted from aU.S. stock exchange if such company has been identified by theSECfor three consecutive years due to PCAOB's inability to inspect the auditor's working paper.

Boqii will continue to monitor developments andhas been actively exploring possible solutions to best protect the interest of its stakeholders. The Company also notes that this update has no impact on its business operations. Boqii will continue to comply with applicable laws and regulations in bothChinaand theUnited States,and strive to maintain its listing status on the New York Stock Exchange.
