Cango begins trading class A ordinary shares on NYSE after ADR termination

NEW YORK - Cango Inc. (NYSE:CANG) began trading its Class A ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on Monday, following the termination of its American Depositary Receipt (ADR) program. The stock is currently trading at $3.07, down significantly from its 52-week high of $9.66, with InvestingPro data showing a 30.23% decline year-to-date.

The transition, which was authorized by the NYSE on November 14, allows U.S. investors to hold shares in the company directly rather than through a depositary bank. As part of the change, holders of Cango's American depositary shares received two Class A ordinary shares for each ADS they previously held, effectively creating a 2-for-1 share split.

According to the company's press release statement, the direct listing eliminates depositary fees previously paid by ADS holders. The company currently has approximately 356 million Class A ordinary shares outstanding, with a market capitalization of approximately $544 million. InvestingPro analysis indicates the company operates with a moderate debt level, with a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.34 and current ratio of 1.64, suggesting its liquid assets exceed short-term obligations.

Cango emphasized that the termination of its ADR program and direct listing did not involve issuing new shares or raising additional capital, ensuring no dilution to existing shareholders.

The company primarily operates in the Bitcoin mining business with operations across North America, the Middle East, South America, and East Africa. Cango entered the crypto asset space in November 2024 and also maintains an online international used car export business through AutoCango.com. Despite impressive revenue growth of 380.74% in the last twelve months, InvestingPro data shows the company is not currently profitable, with analysts expecting continued challenges when Cango reports earnings on December 1.

The direct listing represents a strategic shift for the company, which believes the move may enhance its institutional visibility and potentially broaden its investor base over time.
