The Han’s Laser’s split and listing of Han’s CNC also caused investors to worry.

On May 27, an investor asked Han’s Laser that there are a large number of related transactions and related guarantees between the parent company and listed subsidiaries. How does the company deal with such problems? It is true that the splitting of subsidiaries can better obtain financing to facilitate the further development of the subsidiaries, but it is an act at the expense of all investors. Does Han’s Laser consider the position of investors?

Han’s Laser stated that after this spin-off, Han’s Laser and Han’s CNC have no related party transactions that affect independence or are obviously unfair, which meets the requirements of the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange on related party transactions.

As of December 31, 2020, CITIC Securities held approximately 1.0635 million shares of Han’s Laser, accounting for approximately 0.10% of Han’s Laser’s total equity. Han’s CNC stated that if Han’s Holdings and Gao Yunfeng cannot repay the loan on or before the due date of the guaranteed loan, the pledged Han’s Laser shares may be subject to the risk of forced disposal, which may lead to changes in the equity structure of Han’s Laser, which may be indirect Affect the stability of Han’s CNC decision-making and management and the company’s production and operation.

In this regard, Han’s CNC stated that in 2020, due to the increase in orders for PCB special equipment, the company increased its inventory, resulting in a relatively high inventory balance. Han’s CNC stated that the high inventory balance will occupy a large amount of its working capital on the one hand, which puts the company under pressure on working capital; on the other hand, if there is an order cancellation or customer return due to changes in customer demand or major adverse changes in operating conditions Circumstances, may lead to the risk of stagnation and impairment of inventory, and the company’s operating results will be adversely affected. GPLP Rhinoceros Finance noted that in 2020, the substantial increase in operating receivables combined with the accumulation of inventory, Han’s CNC’s net operating cash flow turned from positive to negative. From 2018 to 2020, its net operating cash flow was 185 million yuan, 270 million yuan, and -509.714 million yuan.
