BEIJING, April 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Xinyuan Real
Estate Co., Ltd. ("Xinyuan" or the "Company") (NYSE: XIN), an
NYSE-listed real estate developer and property manager operating
primarily in China and in the
U.S., today announced that its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the
year ended December 31, 2020 (the
"Annual Report") could not be filed by April
30, 2021.
The Annual Report could not be filed on or before the
April 30, 2021 filing deadline
because the Company's Audit Committee, with the assistance of
advisors, is in the process of conducting an independent review of
certain transactions to assess their potential impact on the
Company's 2020 financial statements.
The Audit Committee is working diligently with its advisors to
complete the review in a timely manner. The Company will not be in
a position to file its Annual Report until the Audit Committee
completes its review and the Company assesses the results of the
review.
The Company intends to follow the procedures established in
Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual to address the
delayed filing. The delayed filing is not impacting the Company's
day-to-day operations, and it has no immediate effect on the
listing or trading of Xinyuan ADSs on the NYSE under the symbol
"XIN".
