Affected investors can register their claims against the company on the Sina investor rights protection platform at http://wq.finance.sina.com.cn/ or by following Sina Securities on social media, subscribing to Sina券商基金 on WeChat, searching for Sina investor rights protection on Baidu, or accessing the Sina Finance client and homepage. The litigation against Suzhou Hengjiu Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as *ST Hengjiu or Hengjiu Delisting, original code: 002808) concerning securities misrepresentation liability is progressing.
Li Jian, a lawyer at Zhejiang Yufeng Law Firm who has successfully represented investors in lawsuits against more than 130 listed companies and secured compensation, stated that the statute of limitations for *ST Hengjiu securities misrepresentation claims may have only two months remaining, and affected investors can still file lawsuits. Looking back at the case, on the evening of June 27, 2025, *ST Hengjiu issued an announcement regarding the receipt of an administrative penalty decision by the company and related parties. The announcement revealed that the Jiangsu Regulatory Bureau found *ST Hengjiu's 2019 annual report, 2020 annual report, 2021 semi-annual report, and 2021 annual report contained false records.
Specifically, in 2019, the company inflated operating revenue and total profit by 14 million yuan each, accounting for 4.43% and 47.48% of the company's disclosed operating revenue and total profit for that period, respectively. In 2020, it inflated operating revenue by 185.6637 million yuan and total profit by 38.6043 million yuan, representing 38.14% and 103.96% of the disclosed figures. In the first half of 2021, operating revenue and total profit were each inflated by 17.5472 million yuan, accounting for 11.86% and 123.56% of the disclosed amounts. In 2021, operating costs were inflated by 13.4874 million yuan, while total profit was reduced by the same amount, representing 6.07% and 7.49% of the absolute values of the disclosed operating costs and total profit, respectively.
Under the Supreme People's Court's judicial interpretation on false statements, listed companies and other entities that cause investor losses through securities misrepresentation can be sued for compensation. The scope of claims includes investment loss differentials, commission fees, and stamp duty losses. Lawyer Li Jian indicated that based on the judicial interpretation, it is preliminarily determined that affected investors who purchased *ST Hengjiu shares between April 22, 2020, and November 9, 2023, and held those shares at the close of trading on November 9, 2023, may file claims in accordance with the law. The final eligibility conditions are subject to court determination.
Investors seeking compensation must provide securities account opening information inquiry records, stock transaction statements (from April 1, 2020, to the present), and contact details.
