China Ming Yang Wind Power Announces Withdrawal of Proposed Secondary Offering; Considers Implementing Share Repurchase Program
ZHONGSHAN, China, May 31, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China Ming Yang Wind Power Group Limited ("Ming Yang" or the "Company") (NYSE:MY), a leading wind turbine manufacturer in China, today announced it has withdrawn the registration statement on Form F-1 previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the proposed public offering of up to 15,000,000 American depositary shares ("ADS") of the Company by certain selling shareholders.
"We believe the selling shareholders decision to cancel the proposed offering demonstrates their view that the current share price is significantly undervalued and does not reflect the fundamentals of our business and our future growth prospects," said Chuanwei Zhang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Ming Yang.
In light of current market conditions, Ming Yang's board of directors has approved that the Company consider implementing a share repurchase program. Such a share repurchase program may include the repurchase by Ming Yang of ordinary shares or ADSs of the Company in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market from time to time depending on market conditions and other factors as well as subject to relevant rules under the United States securities regulations. The Company intends to announce the size and other terms of the program once finalized and approved by the board.
"Ming Yang has delivered solid financial performance in 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 and we fully expect to meet our expected revenue targets for 2011," said Mr. Zhang. "The decision to explore a share repurchase program by the Company reflects our confidence in our ability to successfully execute our business strategies and deliver value to our shareholders."
Mr. Zhang added, "Subject to Company policy and securities law compliance, I also intend to buy additional shares in the Company to demonstrate my confidence in the Company."
