Noah Holdings Limited Announces US$100 Million Share Repurchase Program

 

SHANGHAI, December 1, 2020 — Noah Holdings Limited (“Noah” or the “Company”) (NYSE: NOAH), a leading wealth and asset management service provider in China with a focus on global investment and asset allocation services for high net worth individuals and enterprises, today announced that its board of directors has approved a share repurchase program (“Share Repurchase Program”), under which Noah is authorized to repurchase up to US$100 million worth of its issued and outstanding American Depositary Shares, two of which represent one Class A Ordinary Share, over the course of two years (“Share Repurchase Program”).

 

The Share Repurchase Program will be effective after the release of the Company’s operating and financial results for the third quarter of 2020 on Form 6-K, which has been filed with the SEC on December 1, 2020, subject to the relevant rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Company’s insider trading policy.

 

The proposed share repurchases may be made from time to time on the open market, in open-market transactions in compliance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act and/or through other legally permissible means, depending on market conditions and in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations.  The timing and conditions of the share repurchases will be subject to market conditions, share price, corporate and regulatory requirements and other factors.  Noah’s management will review the Share Repurchase Program periodically, and has been authorized to make adjustment of its terms and size at its discretion. The Company expects to utilize its existing funds to fund repurchases made under this program.

 

“The Share Repurchase Program reflects our continued confidence in our business prospects and China’s wealth management industry. We are committed to increasing shareholder value and believe that our shares are currently undervalued in the marketplace,” commented Ms. Jingbo Wang, Noah’s Co-Founder and CEO.
