Faraday Future Submits Regulatory Referral Letter to the SEC, Advancing Fight Against Alleged Illegal Short Selling and Market Manipulation Including Alleged Conduct by Hua Qixin and Associates
In the course of its sustained efforts against alleged illegal short selling, FF has identified and preserved relevant evidence. The Company believes this information indicates the continued presence of potential illegal market manipulation targeting FF’s stock performance — including alleged conduct by Hua Qixin and associates involving the dissemination of false information, defamatory statements, investor misdirection, and deliberate market panic. The Company believes such activities are designed to distort investor understanding of FF’s true business fundamentals and long-term value, while causing material harm to the Company and its stockholders.
The submission of this Regulatory Referral Letter to the SEC represents a key component of the upgraded five transformation initiatives the Company has been driving since YT Jia was acknowledged and appointed as Global CEO. Internally, FF is accelerating its comprehensive transformation across five areas: strategy; product, technology and business; finance; capital; and FF's AI operating system. Externally, the Company will pursue increasingly decisive, proactive, and systematic legal and regulatory actions to combat alleged illegal short selling, disinformation, and market manipulation, putting “Stockholders First” into concrete practice.
“We have the confidence, the evidence, and the determination to continue protecting the interests of the Company, our stockholders, and long-term investors through lawful and compliant means,” said YT Jia, Faraday Future’s Founder and Global CEO. “The Company will continue to employ every necessary judicial and regulatory tool to safeguard an open, fair, and law-abiding capital market environment, so that FF's market value more accurately reflects the Company's business fundamentals and long-term value.”
