新闻日期：2024-09-11
周杰伦母亲黄惠美等人于2017年创办的Star Plus Legend股票在周三晚间因无明显原因大幅下跌，跌幅达72%，首次跌破首次上市价格。该股自去年7月在香港上市以来，此次是首次跌破发行价。
该公司主要销售与周杰伦密切相关的产品，如“防弹”高脂咖啡饮料Modong，以及护肤和保健产品，并提供知识产权服务。针对Bloomberg News的书面回应中称，由于公司早期强劲的表现，部分早期投资者可能已经获得重大收益。结合近期市场的波动和恒生指数的压力，这些因素导致了部分获利回吐。
该公司表示，这种影响“可能是暂时的”，正积极评估当前状况，必要时将采取进一步措施来稳定市场并保护所有股东的利益。本周初，中国总部的Star Plus Legend公司市值约为10亿美元，目前已经损失了三分之二的价值。该股票仅被三位分析师覆盖，他们均对该股给予买入评级。
早些时候，同样在香港上市的图形材料生产商Sanergy Group Ltd. 的股票也曾因监管机构关于股东集中和边际减仓交易的警告，在本月早些时候一度下跌98%。
该公司上半年营业额同比增长76%，达到2.67亿元人民币（约3800万美元）。
原文摘要：
A company backed by the mother of Asia pop megastar Jay Chou saw its stock tumble by a record 72% Wednesday, with no immediately apparent reason.The slide took shares of below their initial public offering price for the first time since their July 2023 listing in Hong Kong. Volume was 49 times the three-month daily average. The company is known for retailing products closely associated with the Taiwanese singer, including Modong, a “bulletproof” high-fat coffee drink. by Chou’s mother Yeh Hui-Mei and others in 2017, Star Plus Legend also sells skin- and health-care products and provides intellectual property.“Given the company’s earlier strong stock performance, some early investors may have realized significant gains. Combined with recent market volatility and pressure on the Hang Seng Index, this has led to some profit-taking,” the company said in a written response to Bloomberg News Wednesday late afternoon. The stock price impact is “likely to be temporary,” the company said, adding that it is “actively evaluating the current conditions and will consider taking further steps, if necessary, to stabilize the market and safeguard the interests of all shareholders.”With a market capitalization of around $1 billion at the start of the week, China-based Star Plus Legend’s shares have lost three-quarters of their value in three days. The stock is covered by only three analysts, who all rate it a buy.Wild swings are not uncommon in small, little-covered stocks. Shares of graphite maker Sanergy Group Ltd. plunged 98% one day earlier this month in Hong Kong after a regulator’s warning about shareholding concentration and margin-unwind trades.Star Plus’s for the first six months of the year grew 76% from a year earlier to 267 million yuan ($38 million).
