Fanhua Comments on Its Stock Trading Activities
August 27 2018 - 1:57PM
Fanhua Inc. (Nasdaq: FANH) (the "Company" or "Fanhua"), a leading
independent financial services provider operating in China, today
issued an initial statement in response to a short seller report
which has caused unusual trading activities of its stocks.
The allegations in the report are false and
groundless, reflecting the author's lack of knowledge about
the Company’s fundamental business. The report is misleading and
reflects the author’s intention to cause panic among investors and
profit from the decline in the price of the Company’s
stocks.
The Company reiterates that it maintains normal
business operations as it continues to generate solid profits and
strong cashflow, which allows the Company to make quarterly
dividend payments to its shareholders.
The Company will host a conference call to give
a detailed response to the unfounded allegations at 07:30 a.m.
Eastern Daylight Time on August 28, 2018 (07:30 p.m. Beijing Time
on August 28, 2018). Conference call details will be provided once
available.
