????由于發(fā)現(xiàn)公司 “可能存在會(huì)計(jì)違規(guī)行為”,阿里巴巴影業(yè)集團(tuán)(Alibaba Pictures)已申請(qǐng)暫停股票交易,并推遲公布其上半年業(yè)績。阿里巴巴集團(tuán)(Alibaba Group)擁有阿里巴巴影業(yè)60%的股份。 ????阿里巴巴正在籌備在紐約上市,時(shí)間暫定為九月份,IPO規(guī)模預(yù)計(jì)將達(dá)到上百億美元,而此次聲明令其陷于尷尬境地,也讓外界對(duì)阿里巴巴去年大舉收購的質(zhì)量產(chǎn)生了質(zhì)疑。 ????六個(gè)月前,阿里巴巴斥資8億美元獲得原文化中國傳播集團(tuán)(ChinaVision Media Group)的控股權(quán),這是其發(fā)展媒體內(nèi)容業(yè)務(wù)戰(zhàn)略的一部分。在上周五提交給香港股票交易所(Hong Kong Stock Exchange)的文件中,阿里巴巴影業(yè)表示,收購文化中國之后,阿里巴巴任命的一支新管理團(tuán)隊(duì)發(fā)現(xiàn)公司可能存在違規(guī)行為。 ????文件稱,文化中國原管理團(tuán)隊(duì)一直在隱瞞問題,并表示新管理團(tuán)隊(duì)“初步認(rèn)為,截止2014年6月30日的六個(gè)月期間,可能并未對(duì)若干資產(chǎn)計(jì)提充分的減值準(zhǔn)備?!?/p> ????這引發(fā)外界質(zhì)疑,在今年匆忙進(jìn)行交易時(shí),阿里巴巴是否實(shí)施了全面審查?《華爾街日?qǐng)?bào)》(Wall Street Journal)引用數(shù)據(jù)提供商Dealogic的數(shù)據(jù)稱,自3月份收購文化中國以來,阿里巴巴還進(jìn)行了另外八筆收購。 ????阿里巴巴影業(yè)公司表示:“新的董事會(huì)及管理層正落實(shí)改變本公司的政策及程序,此舉反映了董事會(huì)及管理層對(duì)推動(dòng)透明度、良好的企業(yè)管治及投資者保護(hù)方面的堅(jiān)決承諾?!?/p> ????另外,阿里巴巴影業(yè)稱公司已啟動(dòng)對(duì)該問題的調(diào)查,但在香港股票交易所規(guī)定的半年賬目公布的最終期限,即八月底之前,公司無法公布半年業(yè)績。這意味著,對(duì)影業(yè)集團(tuán)的最終調(diào)查結(jié)果可能會(huì)在阿里巴巴集團(tuán)為IPO進(jìn)行造勢(shì)那段時(shí)間公布出來。(財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)) ????翻譯:劉進(jìn)龍/汪皓 |
????Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group asked for trading in its 60%-owned film-production subsidiary, Alibaba Pictures, to be suspended, and delayed the publication of its half-year results after discovering what it called “possible accounting irregularities” at the unit. ????The announcement is an embarrassment for the group as it prepares for its multi-billion initial public offering in New York, tentatively scheduled for September, casting doubt over the quality of its rapid-fire acquisitions over the last year. ????Alibaba had paid $800 million for a controlling stake in what was then called ChinaVision Media Group less than six months ago, as part of a strategy to develop its own media content business. In a filing to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange Friday, it said the possible irregularities had been discovered by the new management team that it had installed since taking control. ????It suggested that the company’s old management had hidden problems at the business, saying that the new team “is of the preliminary view that insufficient provision for impairments of certain assets for the six months ended 30 June 2014 is likely to have been made.” ????That admission may raise questions about how thorough it was in a flurry of deal-making this year. The company has made eight other acquisitions since it bought ChinaVision in March, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing data from Dealogic. ????“The new Board and management team are instituting changes to the Company’s policies and procedures that reflect a strong commitment to transparency, good corporate governance and investor protection,” the company said. ????Alibaba said it had launched an inquiry into the issue, but would probably not be able to publish its half-year results for Alibaba Pictures until after the end of August, the deadline for pubslhing half-year accounts at the HKSE, meaning that the final results of the probe at the film unit may overlap with the marketing of the group’s IPO. |
