Xinyuan Service will trade on the HKEX under code ‘01895’ beginning October 11, 2019, with 25% of the outstanding shares issued to new investors. The initial public offering price for each share was HK$2.08, resulting in a market valuation of HK$1.04 billion. After the listing, Xinyuan Real Estate will remain the largest shareholder with 60% of total shares held. Xinyuan Service will be consolidated on Xinyuan Real Estate’s balance sheet when reporting future financial results.
