NEW YORK, Dec. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Levi & Korsinsky, LLP notifies investors in Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. (“Inspire Medical Systems, Inc.” or the “Company”) (NYSE: INSP) of a class action securities lawsuit.

CLASS DEFINITION: The lawsuit seeks to recover losses on behalf of Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. investors who were adversely affected by alleged securities fraud between August 6, 2024 and August 4, 2025. Follow the link below to get more information and be contacted by a member of our team:

INSP investors may also contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. via email at [email protected] or by telephone at (212) 363-7500.

CASE DETAILS: According to the filed complaint, defendants made false statements and/or concealed that: In truth, the launch of the Company’s new product, Inspire V, was a disaster because demand for Inspire V was poor, as providers had significant amounts of surplus inventory and were reluctant to transition to a new treatment. Moreover—and contrary to defendants’ statements assuring investors that Inspire had taken all necessary steps to ensure a successful launch and, later, that the launch was in fact proceeding successfully—Inspire had failed to complete basic tasks that were essential predicates to launch. Among other things, as defendants were ultimately forced to admit, Inspire failed to complete training and onboarding for “many” of its treatment center customers; failed to set up basic IT systems, including a customer approval process; failed to ensure that critical insurer claims software was properly updated to facilitate claims processing and payment; and failed to ensure that Medicare reimbursement was in place at the time of the launch.

WHAT’S NEXT? If you suffered a loss in Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. during the relevant time frame, you have until January 5, 2026 to request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn’t require that you serve as a lead plaintiff.

NO COST TO YOU: If you are a class member, you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out-of-pocket costs or fees. There is no cost or obligation to participate.

WHY LEVI & KORSINSKY: Over the past 20 years, the team at Levi & Korsinsky has secured hundreds of millions of dollars for aggrieved shareholders and built a track record of winning high-stakes cases.

BEIJING, Dec. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Youlife Group Inc. (“Youlife” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: YOUL), a leading blue-collar lifetime service provider in China, today announced that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”), expressing its intention to acquire four regional human resources service companies (the “Target Companies”) through a proposed pure-equity transaction. The LOI represents a major step in the Youlife’s evolution from pure organic growth to a dual-engine strategy combining organic expansion and strategic M&A.

Under the non-binding LOI, Youlife and the sellers intend to undertake an internal restructuring to consolidate the Target Companies under an offshore holding structure. Upon completion of this restructuring, Youlife may consider acquiring the holding entity through an equity-based transaction involving newly issued shares of Youlife, subject to further evaluation, due diligence, valuation, and negotiation and execution of definitive agreements.

The contemplated structure is designed to preserve cash resources while aligning long-term interests between both parties. Any potential share consideration is expected to include performance-based mechanisms that would help safeguard shareholder value and ensure ongoing alignment. All terms remain under discussion, and the LOI does not obligate either party to proceed unless and until definitive agreements are executed.

The Target Companies have long-standing operations in job placement, flexible staffing, and regional workforce management across multiple provinces in China. They have strong presence in labor-intensive verticals such as logistics and livestock farming, serving key clients include market-leading enterprises. The intended acquisition will reinforce Youlife’s full-cycle blue-collar service ecosystem, which spans vocational education, recruitment, and employee management. If completed, the acquisition is expected to broaden Youlife’s geographic reach, enhance network density, and create opportunities for future operational synergies.

Mr. Yunlei Wang, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Youlife, emphasized, “This LOI represents a meaningful step in our commitment to integrating regional strengths into a unified, high-quality, nationwide blue-collar service platform. China’s blue-collar human resources sector is undergoing significant transformation, driven by industrial upgrading, rising compliance requirements, and the rapid adoption of digital and AI-enabled workforce solutions. These trends are creating new opportunities for consolidation and platform-driven models.

Upon completion, we believe the Target Companies’ regional expertise, combined with Youlife’s nationwide ecosystem and our AI-powered ‘DeepBlue Brain’ matching engine, could enhance our ability to deliver standardized, efficient, and technology-driven workforce solutions across the country. This is a meaningful step forward in strengthening Youlife’s long-term development path and leadership position in China’s blue-collar service market.”

Ms. Liqun Yao, acting Chief Financial Officer of Youlife, added, “The non-binding LOI reflects our disciplined approach to evaluating strategic opportunities. By using an equity-based structure tied to the future performance of the acquired businesses, we would be able to preserve cash, maintain financial flexibility, and align incentives with long-term shareholder value.”

The Company has not entered into definitive transaction agreements with the sellers, and the execution of any definitive agreements is contingent upon the commercial negotiations with the sellers and the completion of the relevant legal and financial due diligence. There is no guarantee that the contemplated transactions will take place under the current terms or timeline, or at all. Shareholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this preliminary announcement.

About Youlife Group Inc.

Youlife is a leading blue-collar lifetime service provider with a nationwide network of 25 vocational schools under school management model and 25 curriculum development projects, covering a total of 37 cities or counties under 16 provinces of China. Learn more at https://ir.youlife.cn/.
