I have removed my old iPad from my iCloud account and done a factory reset however it is asking for a passcode after the hello screen

ive sold my iPad but the new owner cannot go further than the hello screen as it is asking for a passcode. How can this be correct after I did a factory reset

iPad Air Wi-Fi, Cellular
