On December 19, 2023, Dada announced that Lijun Xin and Beck Zhaoming Chen would both resign immediately from their respective roles as Chairman of the Company’s Board and Chief Financial Officer, citing personal reasons.
Then, on January 8, 2023, Dada disclosed in a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing “that, in the course of its routine internal audit, certain suspicious practices were identified that may cast doubt on certain revenues from the Company’s online advertising and marketing services in 2023.” The Company further stated that “[b]ased on its preliminary assessment, and subject to the findings from the Independent Review as explained below, the Company currently estimates that approximately RMB500 million of revenues from online advertising and marketing services and RMB500 million of operations and support costs may have been overstated, respectively, for the first three quarters of 2023. In addition, the revenue guidance previously provided by the Company for the fourth quarter and full year of 2023 should no longer be relied upon until further notice.” Accordingly, Dada’s board of directors “has determined that it would be in the best interest of the Company and the shareholders to conduct an independent review to ascertain the financial impact and the scope of suspicious practices, if any, and the root cause”.
On this news, Dada’s American depositary receipt (“ADR”) price fell $1.45 per ADR, or 45.87%, to close at $17.12 per ADR on January 8, 2024.
