The company issued the statement as it faced renewed scrutiny following reports about its former executive Alice Huang and her alleged relationship with Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang, Ines Ferré reported for Yahoo Finance.


In a statement posted on LinkedIn, Megaspeed said it had undergone multiple on-site inspections and reviews over the preceding six months by the US Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), Malaysia's Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry, and Nvidia.



According to the company, the reviews found no evidence of illicit chip transfers or other illegal activities.


The statement also said Megaspeed operates within applicable export-control regulations. The company's website displayed a December 2025 date on the statement, a detail that should be distinguished from the date of the Yahoo Finance report.


The company's response follows reports that US authorities are examining whether Megaspeed helped channel advanced Nvidia chips to Chinese customers in violation of US export restrictions.



Megaspeed has denied the allegations.


The scrutiny has also intensified following reports about Jensen Huang's relationship with Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed executive.


US intelligence officials reportedly suspect Alice Huang of gathering information for Beijing, although the allegations have not been publicly substantiated.


Singaporean authorities have said they are investigating Megaspeed over possible export-control circumvention; that does not establish that Alice Huang personally has been charged or found to have committed a crime.



Activist short seller Culper Research had previously raised concerns about Nvidia's exposure to China and Megaspeed's business connections, including its reported relationship with Chinese technology company Alibaba.


Those claims should be treated as allegations and attributed to the research firm.
