TORONTO, Oct. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Visionary Holdings Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the "Company"; a diversified enterprise registered in Ontario, Canada and listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol: GV) successfully held its 2025 Annual General Meeting (AGM) via Zoom video conference from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. ET (UTC-4) on the same day. Chaired by Mr. Robert Jay LEES, the voting rights represented by attending shareholders and their proxies accounted for 97.79% of the company's total voting rights, far exceeding the quorum requirements stipulated in the Business Corporations Act (Ontario, 1990), Nasdaq Listing Rules, and the company's Articles of Association. The meeting's convening procedures and agenda items were in compliance with laws and regulations, fully safeguarding shareholders' rights to participation and voting.

During the meeting, shareholders and their proxies conducted in-depth discussions on core agenda items including board renewal, reappointment of auditors, and review of the annual report. Eventually, all proposals were approved with an overwhelming majority, laying a solid institutional foundation for the company's governance enhancement and business layout in the next fiscal year.

I. Renewal of the 4th Session of the Board of Directors: Professional Team to Support Strategic Implementation

As the core agenda of this meeting, the Company strictly adhered to the U.S. SEC's director independence standards and Nasdaq's mandatory rule of "a majority of independent directors (≥50%)". The Nomination Committee, through public solicitation and multiple rounds of interview evaluations, selected 16 qualified candidates (including 9 incumbents and 7 new members) from 18 candidate profiles, covering key fields such as corporate management, financial management, legal compliance, international education, high-end medical aesthetics and big health, and biotechnology.

Based on the statistics from the dual voting mode of "on-site voting + email voting", 9 candidates – Mr. William T. Chai, Mr. Kealey Donald M, Mr. Jun Huang, Mr. Rusheng Wu, Mr. Robert Jay LEES, Ms. Jiena Zhang, Mr. Weixing Wang, Mr. Yi Wang and Mr. Henry Sun – were officially elected as members of the 4th Session of the Board of Directors, having received more than two-thirds of the affirmative votes from the valid voting rights of attending shareholders. Their term will run from the effective date of the resolution of this AGM to the end of the 2026 Annual General Meeting.

With their cross-sector professional backgrounds and rich practical experience, the new board members will provide diverse perspectives for the company's strategic decision-making, further optimize the governance structure, and effectively safeguard the long-term interests of all shareholders.

II. Reappointment of Auditors: Strengthening the Defense Line of Financial Compliance

To meet the stringent audit supervision requirements of the U.S. SEC and Nasdaq for listed companies, the meeting approved the Proposal on the Appointment of Auditors for the 2025-2026 Fiscal Year, agreeing to reappoint Assentsure PAC as the company's auditor for the 2025-2026 fiscal year (April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2026).

Assentsure PAC has completed registration with the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and holds the legal qualification to provide audit services for U.S.-listed companies. During the 2024-2025 fiscal year audit work, its core team, supported by over 6 years of cross-border audit experience, efficiently completed the financial statement audit and internal control evaluation. The audit conclusions truly reflected the company's financial status, and its professional capabilities have been recognized by the company and shareholders. After this reappointment, Assentsure PAC will continue to be responsible for statutory matters such as the company's annual financial statement audit and SEC periodic report audit. The audit service fee will remain consistent with the previous fiscal year (excluding audit travel expenses and fees for additional matters), ensuring that the company's financial information disclosure is "true, accurate, complete, timely and fair".

III. Review of Annual Reports: Clarifying Operating Results and Development Path
