SHENZHEN, China, March 30, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- Jingwei International Limited (NASDAQ: JNGW) ("Jingwei" or "the Company"), a leading provider of data-mining, interactive marketing and software services in China, today announced that its previously disclosed "going private" transaction designed to eliminate Jingwei's status as a public company in the U.S. has been consummated.

Following suspension of trading in Jingwei's common stock on the NASDAQ, the Company effected a 1 for 20,000 reverse stock split, with the result that all shareholders owning less than 20,000 shares as of 7:00am (EDT) on March 30, 2012 will receive a cash payment of $2.20 per shares from a fund established by Jingwei with the exchange agent for the transaction. Immediately following the reverse stock split, the Company effected a 20,000 for 1 forward stock split, with the result that all shareholders owning more than 20,000 shares as of 7:01am (EDT) on March 30, 2012 will continue to hold the same number of shares as they did prior to both stock splits.

Following the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company plans to file a Form 15 to suspend its duty to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. It will be eligible to suspend such duty because it has fewer than 300 record holders following the reverse stock split. Upon filing of the Form 15, the Company's obligation to file certain reports with the SEC, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, will immediately be suspended.

It will be eligible to suspend such duty because it has fewer than 300 record holders following the reverse stock split, subject to the receipt by the Company of a no-action letter regarding the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 from the Staff of the US Securities and Exchange Commission for which a request has been submitted. Upon filing of the Form 15, the Company's obligation to file certain reports with the SEC, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, will immediately be suspended.

SHENZHEN, China, February 16, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- Jingwei International Limited (NASDAQ: JNGW) ("Jingwei" or "the Company"), a leading provider of data-mining, interactive marketing and software services in China, today announced its intent to accept a "going private" proposal proposed by Mr. George (Jianguo) Du, Chairman and CEO of the Company, and cease its public company status.

A special committee of the company's board of directors, comprised of independent directors, has recommended, and the board of directors has approved, plans to voluntarilty delist the common shares from the NASDAQ Global Market and cease the registration of the Company's common shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Going-Private Transaction

In order to ensure that it will be eligible to deregister its common shares, in accordance with SEC rules and regulations, Jingwei will reduce its number of record shareholders to below 300. To accomplish this, the special committee of the board recommended, and the board of directors approved, an amendment to the Company's articles of incorporation to effect a 1-for-20,000 reverse stock split whereby each 20,000 outstanding shares of Jingwei common shares will be converted into one whole share and, in lieu of us issuing fractional shares to shareholders owning less than 20,000 pre-reverse stock split shares, Jingwei will pay cash equal to $2.20multiplied by the number of pre-reverse stock split shares held by such shareholder. Immediately following the reverse stock split, the Company will file a second amendment to its articles of incorporation to effect a 20,000-for-1 forward stock split. As a result, shareholders owning 20,000 or more common shares at the time of the reverse split will retain their current numbers of common shares without change and not receive cash in the transaction. The funding for the cash payment for the fractional shares described above will be provided by the company's largest shareholder, George (Jianguo) Du, Chairman and CEO of the Company. Following the funding of the amount required to cash-out fractional shares and in consideration of Mr. Du assuming Jingwei's obligation to cash-out fractional shares, Jingwei will issue Mr. Du a number of common shares equal to the amount he funded divided by $2.20 (rounded to the nearest whole share).

Jingwei's board of directors decided to pursue taking the Company private after concluding that the disadvantages of remaining an SEC-reporting company, including the costs associated with ongoing regulatory requirements, outweighed the benefits of public company status to the Company and its shareholders. American Appraisal China Limited, independent financial advisor to the special committee, provided an opinion to the Special Committee that the $2.20 per share cash-out price in lieu of fractional shares is fair from a financial point of view to those shareholders who would be cashed out in the proposed transaction.

Under Nevada law, the Company's board may amend its articles of incorporation to conduct the stock splits without the approval of the Company's shareholders, and therefore the Company is not seeking the approval of the going-private transaction from its shareholders.

Prior to consummating the going-private transaction described above, the Company must file a preliminary information statement and a transaction statement with the SEC on Schedule 13E-3. Following review by the SEC, the Company intends to distribute a definitive information statement to its shareholders and to effect the going-private transaction as soon as practicable following the date that is 20 days after the distribution of the information statement to shareholders. The Company anticipates the transaction will be completed in the second quarter of 2012. If the transaction is completed, the company would no longer file periodic reports with the SEC. This release is not an offer to acquire or sell any securities.

The special committee may determine not to proceed with the going-private transaction as currently contemplated, or to change certain of the terms of the transaction, if it believes that abandoning or changing the terms of the transaction is in the best interests of the Company's unaffiliated shareholders. If the special committee determines not to proceed with the going-private transaction, we will continue to operate our business as presently conducted.

Mr. Du owns 41.1% of Jingwei's common shares.

To the extent necessary to finance the proposed transaction, he is willing to provide funding to Jingwei at a price of $1.56 per share to fund the cancellation of fractional shares following a reverse split in order to effect the going-private transaction, which would be financed solely through available personal funds.

The board of directors cautions Jingwei's shareholders and others considering trading in its securities that it has only received the proposal and that no decisions have been made by the board of directors with respect to the Company's response to the proposal. There can be no assurance that any definitive offer will be made, that any agreement will be executed or that this or any other transaction will be approved or consummated. The board of directors has formed a special committee of independent directors to consider the proposal. The committee has retained independent financial advisors to assist it in its work.

"In addition, net income was negatively affected by a one-time impairment charge of about $1.1 million to a long-term investment, as well as a sharp increase in SG&A Expense in part to support our quick business expansion in the Data mining segment."

Mr. George Du continued, "In spite of the challenges, we have invested greatly to expand our product offerings and strengthen the sales team in data mining segment. We have upgraded our major MVAS "Stock Trading Secretary" to a more comprehensive program, adding new features such as personal wealth management information, financial advisor commentaries and basic wealth management consultation over the phone. With successful deployment of the MVAS Society Channel and marketing support system for China Unicom in four provinces, the Company has built up a strong operating team for this product line. We aim to build on momentum to quickly expand the coverage to ten provinces in the next six months. In the software services segment, we have maintained our market leadership in development of IPTV billing and OSS solution, and continued to upgrade integrated call center platforms in multiple provinces for China Unicom in support of its widely popular "116114" service. Moreover we are making efforts to diversify our customer base into municipal governments and telecom carriers in Eastern European and African countries."
