DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

5. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

On March 18, 2026, the Group entered into an agreement to dispose its interests in Chijet Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Disposed Group”) to an unrelated third party for a cash consideration of US$1. The disposal was completed on March 20, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the Disposed Group has been fully disposed of and no assets or liabilities related to the discontinued operations remained in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Accordingly, the gain or loss on disposal has been recognized in the results of discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Disposed Group represented the Company’s new energy vehicle business and constituted a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, as it generated substantially all of the Company’s historical revenues. For a discussion of the accounting policies applied to the classification and measurement of the disposal group, and the significant estimates involved, see Note 2(c) and Note 2(f).

 

For the period from January 1, 2026 through the disposal date, the Disposed Group incurred a net loss from operations of approximately US$5.6 million. Upon completion of the disposal, the Company recognized a gain on disposal of approximately US$258.8 million. The US$1 consideration represented the equity consideration for the Disposed Group. Immediately prior to disposal, the Disposed Group had total assets of approximately US$465.6 million and total liabilities of approximately US$723.5 million, resulting in net liabilities of approximately US$257.9 million. Accordingly, the gain on disposal arose principally from the derecognition of the Disposed Group’s net liabilities upon loss of control, rather than from the cash consideration received. The gain also reflects the derecognition of non-controlling interests and the reclassification of accumulated other comprehensive income attributable to the Disposed Group.

 

The results of discontinued operations for the period from January 1, 2026 through March 20, 2026 and the six months ended June 30, 2025 consisted of:
