Scott+Scott Attorneys at Law LLP Announces Investigation into Fanhua, Inc. (FANH)

NEW YORK, Aug. 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Scott+Scott Attorneys at Law LLP ("Scott+Scott"), a national shareholder and consumer rights litigation firm, is investigating whether Fanhua, Inc. ("Fanhua" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: FANH) or certain of its officers and directors violated federal securities laws.  If you purchased Fanhua American Depository Receipts ("ADR") and have suffered a loss, you are encouraged to contact a Scott+Scott attorney at (844) 818-6980 for more information.

Fanhua is a Chinese company that resells life insurance through a commission/agency model.

On August 27, 2018, Seeking Alpha published a report on Fanhua by Seligman Investments.  The report stated that "[b]ased on due diligence of [Chinese] SAIC filings and other public information, we are deeply concerned about the company's business practices," including:

• Transferring cash to insiders via related-party transactions;
• Overstating the size of its operations;
• Acquiring companies from undisclosed related parties in suspicious transactions;
• Reporting questionable revenues and earnings, with sharply elevated receivables to a firm not disclosed as a related party;
• Discrepancies between earnings and cash flows;
• Involvement with individuals who have been sanctioned by regulators in Hong Kong or who are linked to companies with histories of embezzlement, de-listing, bankruptcy, or SEC prosecution;
• High dependence on questionable partners/customers, in this case ones that are a focus of regulatory action in China.

On this news, Fanhua's stock fell 10.5% on August 27, 2018.

This investigation concerns whether Fanhua's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission were misleading.
