Pheton Holdings Ltd Issues Statements Addressing Recent Market Activity and Misleading Rumors
BEIJING, China, Aug. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pheton Holdings Ltd (the "Company," "we," "our" or "Pheton"), a healthcare solution provider specializing in treatment planning systems for brachytherapy and other related products and services, today issued the following statements in response to recent market volatility and a third-party publication that has raised questions and concerns among shareholders.
Over the past few days, shares of Pheton have experienced an extraordinary and unexpected decline in its share price, which the Company believes may have been triggered by a speculative article published by The Bear Cave on July 29, 2025. The article asserts that Pheton's share price may have been influenced by false rumors of a potential acquisition by Gilead Sciences, Inc. ("Gilead").
Management's Position and Clarification
Pheton's management team unequivocally and categorically denies any involvement in, or knowledge of, any form of stock price manipulation. At no point has the Company participated in, initiated, or sanctioned any rumor, communication, or activity regarding an acquisition by Gilead, or any other party. Pheton has had no contact with Gilead, and any statements or reports suggesting otherwise were and are entirely false and fabricated.
Additionally, Pheton plans to engage with its market makers, Nasdaq, and relevant regulatory bodies for the purpose of holding responsible parties to the scheme accountable.
