Financial Services Association, September 19 (Reporter Fang Yanbo) Amid market questions about the company's ability to continue operating, the helm of Weltai (002058.SZ), which lost four years, is suspected to have “jumped ship.”
This evening, Wiltay issued two consecutive resignation announcements. Ye Pengzhi, chairman of the company, and Zhang Yan, deputy general manager and secretary of the board of directors, all submitted written resignation applications to the company's board of directors for personal reasons. After their resignations, the two no longer held any positions in the company.
The company stated in the announcement that director Chen Heng has been by-elected to the position of chairman of the company, and that the resignations of Chairman Ye Pengzhi and Director Zhang Yan will temporarily perform the duties of board secretary until the company appoints a new board secretary. The resignations of Chairman Ye Pengzhi and Director Zhang Yan will not affect the normal operation of the company's board of directors and the normal development of the company's operations and management work.
According to public information, Weltai once had automated instrumentation as its main business, but as the downward pressure on the manufacturing industry became prominent, the instrumentation industry was seriously challenged.
In the face of the downturn in the industry, Weltai is decisive in 2021
It took steps to expand the company's main business scope to the automobile inspection tool business through the acquisition and holding of Shanghai Ziyan Machinery Technology Co., Ltd.
However, Wiltay's plan did not seem to come true as expected. Financial reports disclosed by the company from 2019 to now show that apart from the 2021 earnings report of the acquisition of Shanghai Ziyan Machinery Technology Co., Ltd., which recorded a profit, the loss situation could not be reversed for the remaining four years.
Wiltay's situation has not improved since this year. In the first half of the year, the company achieved net profit of 7.714 million yuan, which is even greater than the loss amount in the first half of 2023. The company was also questioned by the exchange for reasons such as business growth and whether there is significant uncertainty about its ability to operate continuously.
What is quite embarrassing is that Ye Pengzhi, the chairman of the company who resigned this time, began his career at Weltai in 2019. During his tenure, Weltai's five-year and four-loss performance once made the company and management's ability to operate questioned.
Furthermore, Zhang Yan has strong ties with Ye Pengzhi. Ye Pengzhi was the chairman of Guangzhou Aluminum Group Co., Ltd., and Zhang Yan also held the position of vice president of Guangzhou Aluminum Group Co., Ltd.
According to the company's annual report, in 2023, Ye Pengzhi did not receive remuneration from Weltai's related parties, and the relevant amount was not disclosed; Zhang Yan received total pre-tax compensation of 0.4403 million yuan from Weltai, and furthermore, she did not receive compensation from Weltai's affiliates.
