Executive Summary
Scienjoy Holding Corporation announced it will acquire a 29.9% stake in Leader Education Limited for approximately US$13.1 million. The deal is a related-party transaction (Scienjoy's independent director is also a Leader Education executive) and is subject to due diligence, regulatory consents, and continued HKSE listing conditions.
