What does it mean that Company A is the predecessor of Company B?

Company A is the predecessor of Company B, that is to say, Company B existed in the form of Company A before the company changed its registration. There is no need for financial or industrial and commercial registration contact between A and B, because Company A definitely no longer exists. Company change refers to the change of enterprise organization form and enterprise registration items after the establishment of an enterprise. There are three reasons for enterprise change: enterprise merger, enterprise division and company organization change.

Where the matters recorded in the company's business license change, the company shall register the change according to law, and the company registration authority shall issue a new business license. The company's business license shall specify the company's name, domicile, registered capital, paid-in capital, business scope, name of legal representative, etc. Therefore, any change in the above matters is regarded as a company change.

After the company is divided or merged, both the surviving company and the newly established company after the merger will change their business functions and need to change their articles of association.
