DiDi operates a mobility technology platform known as "the Uber of China." On or about June 30, 2021, the Company sold approximately 316 million American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") at $14.00 per share in the IPO, for proceeds of $4.3 billion. On July 2, 2021 - within days of the IPO - the Cyberspace Administration of China ("CAC") stated that it had launched an investigation into DiDi to protect national security and the public interest, and asked DiDi to stop new user registrations during the course of the investigation. On this news, the price of the Company's ADSs fell over 5% to close at $15.53 per ADS on July 2, 2021.
On July 4, 2021, DiDi reported that the CAC ordered smartphone app stores to stop offering the "DiDi Chuxing" app because it "collect[ed] personal information in violation of relevant PRC laws and regulations." DiDi stated that "the app takedown may have an adverse impact on its revenue in China."
On July 5, 2021, The Wall Street Journal reported that the CAC had asked the Company as early as three months prior to the IPO to postpone the offering due to national security concerns. On this news, DiDi's ADSs fell approximately 20%, to close at $12.49 per ADS on July 6, 2021.
Finally, on July 22, 2021 Bloomberg reported PRC regulators are considering levying fines against DiDi, suspending company operations, and possibly forcing the delisting or withdrawal of DiDi's US shares.
