According to the company, the report does not highlight any new transactions that require further scrutiny. The report touches on Fu Yu’s acquisition of Avantgarde Enterprise, now Fu Yu Supply Chain Solutions, the alleged misuse of the subsidiary’s resources and the payment of a pre-paid commission of US$2.98 million ($3.8 million).
The report also touches on Evertree Hong Kong’s claim of US$925,773.57 as compensation for services rendered under an alleged profit sharing agreement with Fu Yu Supply Chain Solutions dated Sept 1, 2023.
The June 17 statement also said the court application to convene an extraordinary general meeting (EGM) has come to an end. The request was made by Victor Lim Wei De, who has been working as director of strategy in the company and is the company’s largest shareholder.
The EGM call was rejected by Fu Yu, said the company on Jan 31.
