NEW YORK, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against Xiao-I Corporation (“Xiao-I” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: AIXI) and reminds investors of the December 16, 2024 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.

Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See www.faruqilaw.com.

As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that (1) Defendants had downplayed the true scope and severity of risks that Xiao-I faced due to certain of its Chinese shareholders’ non-compliance with Circular 37 Registration, including the Company’s inability to use Offering proceeds for intended business purposes; (2) Xiao-I failed to comply with GAAP in preparing its financial statements; (3) Defendants overstated Xiao-I’s efforts to remediate material weaknesses in the Company’s financial controls; (4) Xiao-I was forced to incur significant R&D expenses to effectively compete in the AI industry; (5) Xiao-I downplayed the significant negative impact that such expenses would have on the Company’s business and financial results; (6) accordingly, Xiao-I overstated its AI capabilities, R&D resources, and overall ability to compete in the AI market; (7) as a result of all the foregoing, there was a substantial likelihood that Xiao-I would fail to comply with the NASDAQ’s Minimum Bid Price Requirement; and (8) as a result, the Offering Documents and Defendants’ public statements throughout the Class Period were materially false and/or misleading and failed to state information required to be stated therein.

On or around March 8, 2023, Xiao-I launched its initial public offering (IPO), selling 5.7 million American depositary shares (ADSs) at $6.80 each. Since the IPO, the price of Xiao-I’s ADSs has dropped significantly, causing losses for investors.

On August 10, 2023, Xiao-I Corporation filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission its amended annual report for the year ended December 31, 2022 on Form 10-K/A. In the amended annual report, Xiao-I disclosed that “However, should there be any changes to PRC laws and regulations or internal control policies of Bank of Ningbo in the future, [Zhizhen Artificial Technology (Shanghai) Company Limited, a Company subsidiary] then may be restricted from transferring funds from overseas to its capital account with Bank of Ningbo as a result.”

On this news, the price of Xiao-I American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) fell $0.93 per ADS, or 11.56%, to close at $7.11 on August 11, 2023.

On July 15, 2024, Xiao-I issued a press release announcing “that it received a notification letter dated July 11, 2024 (the ‘Deficiency Letter’) from the Listing Qualifications Department of [t]he [NASDAQ], indicating that the Company is no longer in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) as the Company’s closing bid price per [ADS] . . . has been below $1.00 for a period of 30 consecutive business days.”

On this news, Xiao-I’s ADS price fell 2.28% to close at approximately $0.67 per ADS on July 15, 2024.

The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not. 

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding Xiao-I’s conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.

SHENZHEN, China, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In today’s fast-changing financial world, managing investments across different types of assets is getting more important. Investors are looking to spread their money around to reduce risks and get better returns. Wealth Broker, an online brokerage platform, understands this and offers solutions that help both new and experienced investors manage a mix of assets in one App, making it easier to grow their wealth.

The Necessity of Multi-Asset Management

Diversifying investments means putting money into different types of assets, like stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and cryptocurrencies. This is based on the idea of not putting your eggs in one basket. By spreading out investments, it is possible to lessen the impact of a downturn in one area on the whole portfolio.

Different types of assets often don’t move in the same direction at the same time. If one type of asset is doing poorly, another might be doing well, which can help balance out your overall returns. For example, during a recession, bonds might provide stable returns while stocks might drop. When the stock market is doing well, assets like gold might hold their value or even increase. This lack of correlation can help protect investments from big losses.

Wealth Broker’s Multi-Asset Management Investment Solutions

As a vanguard in the digital investment and wealth management sector, Wealth Broker offers an array of tools and resources that facilitate multi-asset management for both novice and experienced investors.

Wealth Broker works with a wide range of partners, including banks, investment firms, family offices, wealth management companies, and fund managers, covering many areas of finance. This gives individual clients access to a full range of financial products, including stocks, cash management, mutual funds, private funds, structured products, bonds, and digital assets, to meet different needs and open up more investment opportunities.

For investors who deal in different currencies, Wealth Broker supports several types, like Hong Kong dollars, US dollars, Chinese yuan, and digital currencies. This means investors can move money between currencies without needing extra services, saving time and money. Wealth Broker also works hard to offer good exchange rates for its clients by working with many banks and financial institutions, which helps keep transaction costs down and boost investment returns.

Diversified and Personalized Financial Services

Wealth Broker offers services that cater to the specific needs of different types of investors.

For novice investors, Wealth Broker prioritizes user experience, endeavoring to simplify product interfaces for ease of use. Whether it involves account opening, transaction execution, or asset management, Wealth Broker streamlines these processes, thereby reducing investment barriers and enabling easier entry for novice investors.

For professional investors, Wealth Broker’s platform has established a “Professional Investor” certification system, providing exclusive investment products and personalized investment counsel, including comprehensive market research reports and preferential rates. This assists professional investors in engaging with a wider investment universe, managing larger-scale investments, and achieving superior returns.
