Mr. Yong Zhang, Xinyuan’s Chairman, stated, “Our third quarter results were generally in line with our expectations under the ongoing restrictive government policies impacting China’s overall housing market. We achieved double-digit growth in contract sales compared to the same quarter last year, thanks to steady demand of our active projects. The increase in contract sales for the first nine months of 2017 also met our growth target.
During the third quarter, we were pleased to commence pre-sales of two new projects, Zhengzhou International New City II and Changsha Mulian Royal Palace, and we look forward to beginning pre-sales of two new projects in Zhengzhou in the fourth quarter. We have also been reasonably increasing our land bank during the year, which provides us with a good foundation for development and growth in the coming quarters.

Finally, we were pleased to continue our commitment to our shareholders by paying our 23rd consecutive quarterly dividend and repurchasing shares during the third quarter,” concluded Mr. Zhang.

Real Estate Project Update in the United States
In the third quarter of 2017, the Company’s Oosten project in Brooklyn, New York recognized revenue of approximately US$7.0 million. As of September 30, 2017, a total of 167 units out of 216 total units were sold and closed and total revenue from this project had reached US$244 million.
During the third quarter of 2017, local market demand and price trends remained stable in both Manhattan and Brooklyn. Both experienced modest year-over-year unit price increases. However, “Days on Market”, an industry-wide metric for the average number of days to sell a listed housing unit, increased modestly, which was reflected on the slower sales of our Oosten project. The remaining larger units may take more time than smaller units that have been sold and delivered.
The Company is continuing its foundation work for its second New York City project which is located at the 10th Avenue, Manhattan, New York.
For the Company’s third project, located in Flushing, Queens, New York, it continues to execute its planning, governmental approvals and pre-development of its ground-up development project.
