FAR International Holdings Group Company Limited ( (HK:2516) ) has shared an update.

FAR International Holdings Group Company Limited has disclosed that its subsidiary Hangzhou FAR International Logistics Shareholding Co. Ltd and two of its employees have been summoned by the Intermediate People’s Court of Hangzhou over an alleged smuggling of ordinary goods case linked to cross-border e-commerce import activities between July 2017 and June 2018. Authorities allege that a customer underreported imports and that the then head of Hangzhou FAR’s import business department and subordinates failed in their review and oversight duties, causing losses to national tax revenue; however, the company’s PRC legal advisers have indicated current executives and directors are not implicated, any penalty would likely be limited to a fine in the range of several million renminbi, and the matter is not expected to have a material adverse impact on the group’s financial performance, though shareholders and investors are urged to exercise caution while the case proceeds.
