HAIKOU,
China, Oct. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- JX
Luxventure Limited (Nasdaq: JXJT) (the "Company"), a company
delivering comprehensive products solutions to global
high-net-worth families serviced by our business customers with
business segments covering tourism, duty-free cross-border
merchandise, eCommerce and B2B SAAS solutions, and menswear, today
announced that it has signed a binding memorandum of understanding
(the "MOU") with Shenzhen Zhongjiyingfeng Investment Co., Ltd.
("Purchaser"), pursuant to which the Purchaser will acquire from
the Company 100% ownership in Hongri International Holding Limited
("Hongri"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company through which
the Company operates its menswear business segment, in
consideration for US$10,000,000 (the
"Sale and Purchase Transaction"). Pursuant to the MOU, the parties
intend within 30 calendar days from the date hereof to enter into a
stock purchase agreement or other agreement in a form customary for
transactions of this type (the "Definitive Agreement"), which shall
extinguish and supersede this MOU, and to negotiate in good faith
the Definitive Agreement and any ancillary documentation.
The sale of Hongri and the divestment of the menswear business
pursuant to the Definitive Agreement will allow the Company to
focus more resources on its other segments and areas of the
business, including travel, cross-border merchandise business and
eCommerce business where the Company is uniquely positioned to
maximize its growth and drive positive impact. As the
Company's menswear business has never fully recovered from the
impact of Covid and incurred significant loss during the past two
years, it has chosen to strategically divest its menswear business
and will reinvest the proceed in its more profitable continuing
business. The global economy has shifted and is
experiencing unprecedented changes that call for a renewed focus on
sustainable growth and profits. The Company appreciate the
tremendous effort made by our special committee for the sale of the
menswear business segment led by the Chairman, Mr. Huidan Li.
Ms. Sun "Ice" Lei, Chief Executive Officer of the Company
said: "We are delighted to enter into this MOU with the
Purchaser. This strategic move enables us to build on our
momentum on improving margins and concentrate our travel, duty-free
cross-border merchandise and eCommerce business. Once the
Sale and Purchase Transaction is closed, we are confident that our
three continuing business segments will soon return the overall
profitability to our shareholders."
