Borqs Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: BRQS, “Borqs”, or the “Company”), a global provider of 5G wireless and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, today announced that it has received multiple non-binding indications of interest for its stake in Holu Hou Energy LLC (“HHE”) and a selected group of potential buyers have been invited to participate in the second round of due diligence and negotiations for the complete divestment of the Company’s interest in HHE.

As previously announced, the Company was mandated by CFIUS to divest its ownership in the solar energy storage subsidiary, HHE, due to national security concerns. Subsequently, Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., a nationally reputable investment firm, was engaged by the Company to initiate and manage the sales process of the Company’s ownership in HHE and has received considerable interest from potential buyers. The said transaction is on track to be finalized by the end of the year.

“Proceeds from the divestment will be used for the growth of our business, making strategic M&A, and we will also consider a share buyback program and/or a special dividend payout in order to enhance our shareholder value,” said Mr. Pat Chan, CEO of Borqs Technologies.
