Indeed so, but it wasn't alone -- Inspur K-UX was too:
https://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/brand3617.htm

They just chose not to renew it, and since I am not sure they sell
K-UX any more and it's $30L a year for the trademark or something, who
can blame them?

EulerOS and OpenEuler are RHEL rebuilds like CentOS, so I am very
confident that any other RHEL rebuild would pass as well, probably
unmodified.

But the real point is, multiple distros have passed the conformance
testing now, and Linux is Linux, so it's official.

Novell bought Unix System Labs in 1993 and donated the trademark to
the Open Group, so in about 4 months' time, as of next year, it will
have been *30 years* since the "Unix" trademark meant "based on AT&T
code".
