“We are delighted that Ultrasonic AG has chosen an IPO in Frankfurt. It is the fifth Chinese company to join the Prime Standard this year, making 2011 a record year in this respect despite the recent turbulence on the stock market,” said Barbara Georg, Head of Listing & Issuer Services at Deutsche B�rse. “All the Chinese companies in the Prime Standard have voluntarily chosen the legal form of a German AG and have thus committed themselves to complying with the strict German corporate governance regulations.”

“Deutsche B�rse has a very good reputation in China. Ultrasonic is convinced that Deutsche B�rse will offer an efficient and cost effective platform, and sees attractive investor potential in Europe,” said Ultrasonic CEO Qingyong Wu. “We intend to use the IPO to finance further growth – especially by increasing production capacity and extending the sales network.”

Ultrasonic was founded in 1998 in Fujian and produces high-quality brand shoes for the Chinese market.

To date, 37 Chinese companies have made an initial public offering in Frankfurt, nine of them in the Prime Standard, one in the General Standard, six in the Entry Standard and 21 in the Open Market (First Quotation Board).
