Embattled Chinese developers, including Sunac China Holdings and Shimao Group Holdings, were among the 33 Hong Kong-listed stocks to be suspended for missing a deadline to report annual results. China Aoyuan Group said publishing unaudited results at this stage could “potentially be misleading to the shareholders and potential investors”. At least 138 firms had previously said they would postpone the release of their audited 2021 results past the March 31 deadline. Fitch Ratings Inc said audit problems were a “key driver” for recent downgrades of Sunac China Holdings and Ronshine China Holdings. A prolonged trading halt increases the risk of wild stock moves upon resumption such as in the case of China Huarong Asset Management, which was halted for nine months and sank 50% when trading resumed.
