Publicly Traded Chinese Companies Duty to Shareholders

Disclosures by Chinese Corps. Trading on U.S. Exchanges Have a Defined Duty to Shareholders

 

Commissioner Allison Lee of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is requiring that Chinese companies listed on U.S. stock exchanges disclose any known risks related to the Chinese government interfering in their business. This adds an extra level of responsibility toward investors from corporations domiciled in China. Any disclosures are to be included as part of their regular reporting.

Impact

Regular annual and quarterly filings by all public companies contain discussions of the firm’s liquidity, capital resources, results of operations, any favorable or unfavorable trends in the industry, and any significant events or uncertainties. This could include lawsuits, political risks, and other potential shocks.  For companies headquartered in China and listed on a U.S. exchange, they will need to specifically address known risks that are present due to the Chinese government.

There are at least 248 Chinese companies listed on three major U.S. exchanges with a total market capitalization of $2.1 trillion, according to the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission (USCC). There are also eight national-level Chinese state-owned enterprises listed in the U.S. To the extent that any of the companies have reportable circumstances, it may place them in the difficult situation of being required to highlight activities related to the Chinese government and their specific business. If not complied with, they could face penalties from the SEC, including delisting.

Why the Requirement

There are five SEC commissioners, Commissioner Lee’s remarks are the first by an SEC official since Chinese regulators enacted a massive cyber-investigation of ride-hailing company Didi Global last week. The actions by the Chinese government came a few days after its $4.4bn NYSE listing. The “meddling” is suspected of erasing 25 percent of investor value. There is concern among policymakers that Chinese corporations are violating the current SEC rules that require public companies to disclose to investors material risks that may impact their businesses. This order spells out that government meddling must be included.

The Wall Street Journal reported that Didi was warned by regulators to delay its initial public offering and address its cybersecurity. Didi has said it had no idea about the investigation before listing. The SEC does not disclose active investigations.

 

 

Additional Information

During the past decade, Washington policymakers have focused on having US-listed Chinese companies comply with U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regulations. Last year, Congress passed a law that would delist Chinese companies from U.S. exchanges if they did not comply with U.S. auditing standards. The SEC has been asked by lawmakers to devote more resources to these risks. “U.S. regulators must ensure that American investors and workers are protected from the anti-market behavior that is scarring American investors,” said Senator Bill Haggerty, Senate Banking Committee, in a statement to Reuters.

High-quality, reliable disclosure, including financial reporting, is the core mission of the SEC. It’s tasked with protecting investors, maintaining fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and facilitating capital formation. Although China-based Issuers that access the U.S. public capital markets generally have the same disclosure obligations and legal responsibilities as other non-U.S. issuers, the Commission’s ability to promote and enforce high-quality disclosure standards for China-based Issuers may be materially limited. This leaves the door open to greater risk that their disclosures may be incomplete or misleading. In addition, in the event of investor harm, investors generally will have substantially less access to recourse in comparison to U.S. domestic companies and foreign issuers in other jurisdictions.

Release – Palladium One Expands the Tyko Sulphide Nickel-Copper Project to 24500 hectares and Completes VTEM Survey


Palladium One Expands the Tyko Sulphide Nickel-Copper Project to 24,500 hectares and Completes VTEM Survey

 

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

  • Two Earn-in agreements expand the Tyko Nickel-Copper Project by 950 hectares
  • Additionally, 3,500 hectares were purchased from the original Optionors of the Tyko Project.
  • Tyko Nickel-Copper Project currently over 24,500 hectares
  • 3,100-kilometer airborne Electro Magnetic (VTEMmax) geophysical survey completed
  • Summer exploration field crews are onsite conducting reconnaissance mapping, prospecting and soil sampling. The first 1,000 soil samples have been sent for assaying, results pending

July 27, 2021 – Toronto, Ontario – The footprint of the Tyko Nickel-Copper Project, which returned drill intercepts from massive magmatic sulphide of up to 9.9% Nickel equivalent (“Ni_Eq”), (23.0% Copper equivalent, 30.1 g/t Gold equivalent*over 3.8 meters in hole TK21-023 (Table 1) has been expanded by 4,400 hectares, said Palladium One Mining (“Palladium One” or the “Company”) (TSXV: PDM, FRA: 7N11, OTC: NKORF) today.

Tyko has grown from 20,100 hectares to over 24,500 hectares since the Phase II drill program was completed.

An option agreement with First Class Metals Ltd, for the Pickle Lake property, consists of 700 hectares located on the west side of the Tyko project and is proximal to the historic RJ zone which returned up to 1.2% Ni_Eq (2.78% Cu_Eq and 3.6g/t Au_Eq*) over 16.2 meters in hole TK16-002 (see news release April 12, 2016). A second option agreement for the Cupa Lake property with a local prospector consists of 250 hectares and is located 8km east of the Smoke Lake Zone.

President and CEO, Derrick Weyrauch commented, “Tyko continues to impress and warrants increased levels of expenditure and exploration. Results to date demonstrate robust mineralization spread over at least 18 kilometers, yet the area has seen virtually no government mapping or exploration. We believe that in addition to the high-grade Smoke Lake zone, there are new zones off nickel-copper mineralization yet to be discovered. We are awaiting result from the 3,100-kilometer airborne Electro Magnetic (VTEMmax) survey which will guide further exploration.”

200-square kilometer, VTEMmax survey

Geotech’s Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic airborne system (VTEMmax) survey has been completed across the entire Tyko project. The survey comprised greater than 3,100-line kilometers of closely spaced (100-meter) flight lines. It is the most comprehensive and sensitive airborne geophysical survey ever flown on the Tyko property and covered large areas for which no airborne Electro Magnetic surveys had ever been flown, including the area surrounding the Shabotik showing, having up to 1.0% Nickel, see press release August 19, 2019.

Summer Field Program

Mapping, prospecting and soil sampling is well underway with 1,000 soil samples having already been submitted to the assay lab. This program is designed to ground truth historic and new geophysical anomalies. The vast majority of the Tyko project has seen little to no exploration, or even government mapping.

The all-weather ruggedized system includes military grade electro-optical and infrared video sensors, a proven enterprise AI framework, and high-performance edge AI inference system powered by OSS. This combination can automatically recognize inconsistencies and abnormalities and provide predictive warnings. The product is intended for ships and vehicles, reflecting the company’s focus on AI Transportables.

As the largest maritime exposition in the U.S., the event brings together U.S. defense industry and key military decision-makers for three days of informative educational sessions, important policy discussions and a dynamic exhibit hall floor. Hosted by the Navy League of the United States, Sea-Air-Space attracts maritime leaders from sea services around the globe.

“OSS is pleased to return to this live tradeshow and is looking forward to demonstrating this product in addition to our other market leading products at SAS,” said Jim Ison, chief sales marketing officer of OSS. “OSS brings unique expertise in high speed PCIe interconnect and scalable GPU compute systems as required by the most demanding military and aerospace applications.”

OSS’s AI on the Fly® solutions accelerate autonomous vehicles, record high-speed surveillance data, detect real-time threats, deploy countermeasures, and sift through mountains of radio transmission data—all designed to give an advantage at the edge.

Release – electroCore Announces Issuance of New Patent for Migraine Treatment using Smartphones


electroCore Announces Issuance of New Patent for Migraine Treatment using Smartphones

 

ROCKAWAY, NJJuly 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —  
electroCore, Inc. (Nasdaq: ECOR), a commercial-stage bioelectronic medicine company, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued 
U.S. Patent No. 11,065,444 to electroCore, relating to the use of a mobile phone for stimulating the trigeminal nerve to treat disorders.

The newly issued patent includes descriptions of devices and methods that allow a patient to self-treat a medical condition, such as migraine headache, by non-invasive electrical stimulation of nerves of the head, particularly supraorbital, supratrochlear, infraorbital, and mental nerves in the vicinity of their foramen or notch. The system comprises a handheld mobile device, such as a smartphone, that is applied to the surface of the patient’s head. One or more electrodes apply electrical impulses through the patient’s skin modulating a targeted nerve to treat the medical condition. The system is designed to address problems that arise particularly during self-treatment, when a medical professional is not present.

This newly allowed patent is owned by electroCore and is the latest 
U.S. patent to issue in connection with the company’s non-invasive development program for pain.

“We are pleased with the continued advancement of electroCore’s non-invasive approaches to treating patients,” commented JP Errico, a founder, board member and investor of electroCore, who was also an inventor of the new patent. “These new developments expand the breadth and ease of use by which electroCore’s therapy may be deployed, enabling even more patients worldwide to receive much needed relief at home.”

About electroCore, Inc.
electroCore, Inc. is a commercial stage bioelectronic medicine company dedicated to improving patient outcomes through its non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation therapy platform, initially focused on the treatment of multiple conditions in neurology. The company’s current indications are the preventive treatment of cluster headache and migraine and the acute treatment of migraine and episodic cluster headache.

For more information, visit www.electrocore.com.

About gammaCoreTM
gammaCoreTM (nVNS) is the first non-invasive, hand-held medical therapy applied at the neck as an adjunctive therapy to treat migraine and cluster headache through the utilization of a mild electrical stimulation to the vagus nerve that passes through the skin. Designed as a portable, easy-to-use technology, gammaCore can be self-administered by patients, as needed, without the potential side effects associated with commonly prescribed drugs. When placed on a patient’s neck over the vagus nerve, gammaCore stimulates the nerve’s afferent fibers, which may lead to a reduction of pain in patients.

gammaCore (nVNS) is FDA cleared in 
the United States for adjunctive use for the preventive treatment of cluster headache in adult patients, the acute treatment of pain associated with episodic cluster headache in adult patients, and the acute and preventive treatment of migraine in adolescent (ages 12 and older) and adult patients. gammaCore is CE-marked in the 
European Union for the acute and/or prophylactic treatment of primary headache (Migraine, Cluster Headache, Trigeminal Autonomic Cephalalgias and Hemicrania Continua) and Medication Overuse Headache in adults.

gammaCore is contraindicated for patients if they:

  • Have an active implantable medical device, such as a pacemaker, hearing aid implant, or any implanted electronic device
  • Have a metallic device, such as a stent, bone plate, or bone screw, implanted at or near the neck
  • Are using another device at the same time (e.g., TENS Unit, muscle stimulator) or any portable electronic device (e.g., mobile phone)

Safety and efficacy of gammaCore have not been evaluated in the following patients:

  • Patients diagnosed with narrowing of the arteries (carotid atherosclerosis)
  • Patients who have had surgery to cut the vagus nerve in the neck (cervical vagotomy)
  • Pediatric patients (less than 12 years)
  • Pregnant women
  • Patients with clinically significant hypertension, hypotension, bradycardia, or tachycardia

Please refer to the gammaCore Instructions for Use for all of the important warnings and precautions before using or prescribing this product.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release and other written and oral statements made by representatives of electroCore may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about electroCore’s business prospects and clinical and product development plans; its pipeline or potential markets for its technologies; the timing, outcome and impact of regulatory, clinical and commercial developments; the availability and impact of payer coverage, the potential of nVNS generally and gammaCore in particular and other statements that are not historical in nature, particularly those that utilize terminology such as “anticipates,” “will,” “expects,” “believes,” “intends,” other words of similar meaning, derivations of such words and the use of future dates. Actual results could differ from those projected in any forward-looking statements due to numerous factors. Such factors include, among others, the ability to raise the additional funding needed to continue to pursue electroCore’s business and product development plans, the inherent uncertainties associated with developing new products or technologies, the ability to commercialize gammaCore™, the potential impact and effects of COVID-19 on the business of electroCore, electroCore’s results of operations and financial performance, and any measures electroCore has and may take in response to COVID-19 and any expectations electroCore may have with respect thereto, competition in the industry in which electroCore operates and overall market conditions. Any forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this press release, and electroCore assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Investors should consult all of the information set forth herein and should also refer to the risk factor disclosure set forth in the reports and other documents electroCore files with the 
SEC available at www.sec.gov.

Grindrod Shipping (GRIN) – Another Positive Move to Acquire JV Interest

Tuesday, July 27, 2021

Grindrod Shipping (GRIN)
Another Positive Move to Acquire JV Interest

Grindrod Shipping, originated in South Africa with roots dating back to 1910. The company is based in Singapore, with offices around the world including, London, Durban, Cape Town, Tokyo and Rotterdam. Its primary listing is on Nasdaq and secondary listing on the JSE.

Grindrod Shipping owns and operates a diversified fleet of owned, long-term chartered and joint-venture dry-bulk and liquid-bulk vessels across the globe.

Poe Fratt, Senior Research Analyst, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

    Remaining IVS Bulk joint venture interest of 31.1% acquired for $46.3 million. We view this move as positive since it effectively expands the fleet by four (two Supras/Two Handys) and eliminates another joint venture interest. Pricing is based on May 13th appraisal and April 30th financials. Funding will be comprised of combo of IVS Bulk existing cash and a new credit line of $23 million to redeem IVS preferred and existing GRIN cash after IVS Bulk preferred redemption.

    Dry bulk market thesis intact.  Supply/demand fundamentals appear favorable and 1H2021 TCE rate performance has been better than expected. The order book and supply growth remain historically low due to rate volatility, regulatory uncertainty and declining capital availability, while demand should rebound on the back of global stimulus packages and solid secular minor bulk trends.

Euroseas Ltd. (ESEA) – Positive Impact of Another Oakland Rate Reset

Tuesday, July 27, 2021

Euroseas Ltd. (ESEA)
Positive Impact of Another Oakland Rate Reset

Euroseas Ltd. provides ocean-going transportation services worldwide. The company owns and operates containerships that transport dry and refrigerated containerized cargoes, including manufactured products and perishables; and drybulk carriers that transport iron ore, coal, grains, bauxite, phosphate, and fertilizers. As of March 31, 2017, it had a fleet of seven containerships; and six drybulk carriers, including three Panamax drybulk carriers, one Handymax drybulk carrier, one Kamsarmax drybulk carrier, and one Ultramax drybulk carrier. The company was founded in 2005 and is based in Maroussi, Greece.

Poe Fratt, Senior Research Analyst, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

    Another positive reset on the Oakland intermediate. Yesterday morning, the fleet employment table was updated on the web site to show that the TCE rate on the Oakland had moved up to $64.7k/day over the weekend versus the last reset of $38.0k/day in April. The reset is the last one under a charter that is based on 90 percent of the Contex index for 4,250 TEU vessels, which had moved up into the more than $70.0k/day range. Once the current charter ends in late October, the Oakland is likely to move onto a longer term charter.

    Tight supply and higher container rates are positives for upcoming charters.  According to Contex indices, rates have moved up by more than 40% over the past several weeks. Our current estimates assume that the feeders (Spetses/Diamantis/Corfu/Evridiki) will soon secure longer term work at charter rates in the $20.0k—$25.0k/day range …
