Sina Proceeding and Adoption of Share Repurchase Program

Weibo Corporation (the “Company”) has become aware that its controlling shareholder, Sina Corporation (“SINA”), received an adverse judgment in an appraisal proceeding under Section 238 of the Cayman Islands Companies Act in connection with its privatization (the “s.238 Case”). SINA has appealed the judgement to the Cayman Islands Court of Appeal, which granted a stay of the enforcement of the judgement and resulting order until the resolution of the appeal.

The board of directors of the Company, through a special committee consisting of independent directors, is monitoring the development of this s.238 Case and assessing the potential impact on the Company, pending the outcome of the appeal, including the impact on the shareholding and other relationships and transactions between the Company and SINA, and considering any necessary action to be taken to protect the interests of the Company. For more information about the relationships and transactions between SINA and the Company, please refer to “Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions” in the Company’s annual report for the 2024 financial year on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on April 15, 2025.

As of the date hereof, the outcome of the s.238 appeal remains uncertain. The Company will keep investors informed of any material developments as they become available to the Company.

The Company remains confident in its long-term strategy and is committed to creating long-term shareholder value. Accordingly, the Company’s board of directors has authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to US$200 million of its shares, including in the form of American depositary shares, over the next 12 months, ending on December 31, 2026. The share repurchases may be effected from time to time on the open market at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, in block trades and/or through other legally permissible means, depending on market conditions and will be implemented in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. The Company expects to fund the repurchases out of its existing cash balance. ‎
