According to the Zhitong Financial App, Aoda Holdings (09929) issued an announcement. Recently, the company's board of directors learned that from June to August 2023, the High Court of Justice of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region filed six subpoena warrants. The defendants listed in the warrant include (among them) the company and a number of current and former members of the board of directors. According to available records, the plaintiff is a shareholder of the company. In the writ, the plaintiff filed a number of charges alleging misconduct against the company. The allegations mainly concerned: the veracity of the Group's financial information; and the misconduct of directors and their business partners. In the writ, the plaintiff requested (among other things) that the company pay a special dividend to its shareholders after receiving damages from other defendants. As of the date of this announcement, the company and its management personnel have not received any formal service warrants.

The company categorically denies these allegations and is seeking legal advice to take all necessary legal action to protect the rights of the company and its shareholders.

At the beginning of August, the company's chairman and non-executive director Wan Min-keung received an anonymous letter containing death threats against him and requesting certain interests relating to the company's shares. The incident has been reported to the Hong Kong Police Force and an investigation is ongoing. The company condemns all acts of violence or harassment against its board members and managers.
