ST Fuhuang's 280 bank accounts frozen, becoming the only limit-down stock in the market
On September 8, due to the freezing of major bank accounts causing the stock to be put under special treatment, ST Fuhuang became the only stock in the market to hit the daily limit down. That day, ST Fuhuang's share price opened sharply lower, plunged straight to the limit down in early trading, and although the limit-down board was opened several times during the session, it ultimately failed to reverse the decline. At the close, ST Fuhuang reported 4.4 yuan per share, down 10.02%, with a full-day turnover rate of 17.54% and a latest market value of 1.915 billion yuan. According to public information, ST Fuhuang's full name is Anhui Fuhuang Steel Structure Co., Ltd., one of the earlier domestic enterprises integrating steel structure design, construction, fabrication, installation, and general contracting. On the evening of September 4, ST Fuhuang issued an announcement stating that after verification, as of September 3, the company and its subsidiaries had a total of 411 bank accounts with a balance of 162.9956 million yuan, of which 280 accounts were frozen due to contract disputes and overdue loans, with a frozen balance of 104.19 million yuan, accounting for 68.13% and 63.92% of the total number and balance respectively. ST Fuhuang said the above situation has triggered the other risk warning condition of 'major bank accounts being frozen' stipulated in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange Listing Rules. The company's shares were suspended for one day on September 7, resumed trading on September 8 with other risk warnings implemented, and the stock abbreviation was changed from Fuhuang Steel Structure to ST Fuhuang. ST Fuhuang also stated that it will strive to take effective measures, actively communicate and coordinate with relevant courts, and seek to lift the account freeze as soon as possible. The semi-annual report disclosed on August 28 showed that ST Fuhuang achieved operating revenue of 227 million yuan in the first half of this year, down 86.83% year-on-year; net loss attributable to the parent company was 386 million yuan, turning from profit to loss year-on-year, compared with a profit of 30.63 million yuan in the same period last year. It is worth noting that in mid-August this year, due to failure to repay matured debts, ST Fuhuang was applied by creditors for pre-reorganization and reorganization, and on August 25 it received the Decision Letter from the Hefei Intermediate People's Court to initiate pre-reorganization. ST Fuhuang said it is fully promoting relevant financing plans specifically to ensure the company's production and operation capital needs.
