Didi’s disastrous foray onto Wall Street is over
CNNHong Kong CNN Business — Shareholders voted Monday in favor of Didi’s plan to quit the New York Stock Exchange less than a year after China’s largest ride-hailing firm launched its $4.4 billion initial public offering. Just days after Didi’s Wall Street debut last summer, Chinese authorities banned the service from app stores in the country, and initiated a cybersecurity probe into the company. In an SEC filing earlier this month, Didi said it would not be able to resume normal business operations without completing the cybersecurity review required by Chinese authorities. Didi held an extraordinary general meeting on Monday evening in Beijing, where investors including SoftBank and Tencent voted by a huge majority in favor of withdrawing from Wall Street.
