WSP Holdings Responds to Recent Trading Activity
WUXI, China, Aug. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- WSP Holdings Limited (NYSE: WH) ("WSP Holdings" or the "Company"), a Chinese manufacturer of API (American Petroleum Institute) and non-API seamless casing, tubing and drill pipes used in oil and natural gas exploration, drilling and extraction ("Oil Country Tubular Goods" or "OCTG"), and other pipes and connectors, notes that certain irregular trading activity of its American depositary shares took place on August 8. The Company believes that the irregular trading activity may be attributable to recent market speculation surrounding the status of the Company's going private transaction arising from a third-party article.
The Company is currently working to address the non-compliance of its reporting obligations and complete the financial audit for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company expects to make another announcement as soon as it has an update on the going private transaction.
