It raised nearly US $1.6 billion after IPO and listing, with a maximum market value of US $12 billion, creating the \"Luckin myth\". But soon, the \"myth\" piled up by false transactions was shattered. When Ruixing Coffee was delisted, there was only a market value of US $350 million left, which led to Lu Zhengyao's \"Shenzhou Department\"-including China Car Rental, UCAR, Borgward Automobile, etc.--collapsed one after another.</p><p>But just after being almost forgotten by the capital market, Luckin Coffee has rebounded in the US stock pink sheet market in the past year. Starting from the lowest of US $0.95 when it was delisted and entered the pink sheet market in July 2020, Luckin Coffee rose to a maximum of US $15.65 last week, a cumulative increase of 15 times; Since the official release of the 2019 financial report on June 30, the highest increase in half a month has been nearly 70%. As of July 16, Luckin Coffee's closing price was US $12.88, with a market value of US $3.722 billion, ten times the market value of delisting.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b4e271afaef9c3d48728fe0003b1a982\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Morgan Stanley Finance noticed that after the financial fraud scandal broke out, Lu Zhengyao and his forces have been purged out of Ruixing Coffee. The former ally Dacheng Capital, who turned against Lu Zhengyao, has actually taken control of Ruixing Coffee and has become the key force of Ruixing Coffee's Jedi reorganization. and the biggest beneficiary.</p><p><b>Restructuring Ruixing</b></p><p>Luckin Coffee went public on Nasdaq in May 2019, and was shorted by an anonymous report released by Muddy Waters in early 2020. In April of that year, it was exposed to financial fraud, triggering a series of subsequent turmoil. On June 30, 2020, Ruixing delisted and transferred to the US stock pink sheet market.</p><p>In July of that year, after an investigation by the Ministry of Finance of China, it was disclosed that from April 2019 to the end of 2019, Ruixing Coffee increased its transaction volume by 2.246 billion yuan through fictitious commodity coupons, inflated its revenue by 2.119 billion yuan, and inflated its profits by 908 million yuan. This also means that most of the performance myths woven by Ruixing Coffee are pure fiction.</p><p>Bearing the notoriety of financial fraud and delisting, Ruixing Coffee at that time could be described as being beaten by everyone and falling to the bottom. Not only was it caught in the trouble of investor class action lawsuits and SEC investigations in the United States, but there were also internal disputes between Lu Zhengyao's faction and other shareholders such as Centurium Capital. governance disputes. At the same time, the delisting of Ruixing Coffee also triggered the breach clause, and creditors sued Ruixing Coffee in the Cayman Court for bankruptcy liquidation. The court appointed a provisional liquidator for \"low-degree intervention\".</p><p>The turning point of matters was Lu Zhengyao's exit from Ruixing Coffee.</p><p>In July last year, the equity of Luckin Coffee controlled by the Lu Zhengyao family through Haode and other entities was ruled by the British Virgin Islands court to be managed and liquidated by KPMG due to the plummeting stock price and the default of pledged loans. It lost all its equity, and then lost the board dispute. In September 2020, the board of directors of Ruixing Coffee, which was reorganized under the promotion of shareholders such as Centurium Capital, completely bid farewell to the Lu Zhengyao era, and professional managers such as Guo Jinyi took the lead. Although Lu Zhengyao and his faction reported Guo Jinyi in early 2021, it did not have an impact.</p><p>However, the mess of Ruixing Coffee still needs to be cleaned up. Fortunately, at the end of 2020, Luckin Coffee and the SEC reached a settlement agreement with a fine of US $180 million, eliminating U.S. regulatory risks. At the same time, the provisional liquidator appointed by Ruixing Coffee submitted its first announcement to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands in December 2020, stating that Ruixing still has more than US $700 million in cash in its account enough to repay debts, and Ruixing Coffee's business is still operating normally. It even achieved overall store profitability for the first time in August of that year, indicating that the situation of Ruixing Coffee is not bad.</p><p>Next, Luckin Coffee accelerated its debt and capital restructuring this year. In February 2021, Luckin Coffee declared bankruptcy in New York as a procedural step in debt restructuring. In March 2021, Luckin Coffee stated that it had reached a restructuring agreement (RSA) with major bondholders, which included raising US $250 million and reducing the registered capital of domestic entities to fulfill restructured debts.</p><p>It is worth mentioning that in April 2020, after the financial fraud scandal broke out, Ruixing Coffee soared its registered capital from US $1.55 billion to US $2.05 billion. In May of this year, Ruixing Coffee completed a capital reduction of US $250 million for debt restructuring.</p><p>But there is another key question, who will continue to invest in Luckin Coffee after the financial scandal? Facts have proved that it was old friends and major investors of Ruixing Coffee, Centurium Capital and Joy Capital, who finally made the move.</p><p><b>Winner Li Hui</b></p><p>Li Hui and Liu Erhai were once staunch supporters of Lu Zhengyao. When they worked for Warburg Pincus and Legend Holdings respectively, they jointly invested in Shenzhou-based companies such as CAR Rental and UCAR. They also founded Centurium Capital and Joy Capital respectively. After jointly invested in Luckin Coffee.</p><p>Li Hui's Centurium Capital is the largest institutional investor in Ruixing Coffee. Shortly after its establishment, Centurium Capital raised its first US dollar fund (with a total size of US $2 billion) in 2018. The first project it invested in was Ruixing Coffee, with a total investment of nearly US $180 million. When Ruixing Coffee went public, Centurium Capital holds more than 14% of the shares and is the third largest shareholder after Lu Zhengyao and Qian Zhiya.</p><p>In January 2020, Luckin Coffee refinanced US $900 million by issuing new shares and convertible bonds when the stock price was at a high point. At the same time, Centurium Capital reduced its holdings at a high price of US $42/ADS and cashed out US $230 million. \"Achieved substantial profits. Compared with Joy Capital, which insists on \"not selling a share\", Li Hui's Centurium Capital has achieved perfect cash-out on Ruixing Coffee, reflecting the high rank of a smart investor.</p><p>After the financial scandal of Luckin Coffee broke out, Li Hui quickly and publicly broke with Lu Zhengyao, and fought with the latter over board seats and corporate governance rights. After Lu Zhengyao's equity was liquidated, he became Luckin Coffee's biggest speaker.</p><p>The ownership structure disclosed by Ruixing Coffee shows that as of May 31, 2021, the total share capital of Ruixing Coffee is 1.88 billion Class A shares and 144 million Class B shares. Dacheng Capital holds all 144 million Class B shares, that is, Ruixing Coffee 7.15% of the equity. Since Class B shares have super voting rights, Dacheng Capital holds 43.50% of the voting rights of Ruixing Coffee. Joy Capital holds 5.30% of the shares and 3.22% of the voting rights.</p><p>However, Centurium Capital has further increased its shareholding in Ruixing Coffee through a new round of financing.</p><p>In April 2021, Ruixing Coffee stated that it had reached a new round of financing agreements totaling US $250 million with the company's shareholders Centurium Capital and Joy Capital. According to the investment agreement, Centurium Capital subscribed for US $240 million in senior convertible preferred shares, and Joy Capital subscribed for US $10 million at a subscription price of US $6.5 per ADS (equivalent to 8 shares). If Ruixing Coffee's debt restructuring plan is completed, the two parties can invest an additional US $150 million year-on-year.</p><p>The latest data shows that the total share capital of Ruixing Coffee is 289 million shares. Based on this calculation, the US $240 million convertible preferred shares of Centurium Capital has been fully converted recently. This also means that Centurium Capital's shareholding in Ruixing Coffee has increased to 17.2%, and its voting rights have increased to 45.2%.</p><p>It is worth mentioning that when Centurium Capital invested US $6.5/ADS to subscribe for convertible preferred shares in April, the stock price of Ruixing coffee powder was about US $9-10/ADS, and Centurium Capital was equivalent to buying the bottom at a large discount. So far, it has doubled in just three months, making a fortune again.</p><p>Li Hui's reduction and increase in Ruixing Coffee can be said to have calculated the rhythm step by step.</p><p><b>Does Luckin still have a chance?</b></p><p>It is worth noting that since the beginning of this year, the coffee chain business has regained the attention of capital. Manner Coffee announced the completion of a new round of financing in June this year, with a valuation of nearly US $3 billion. But Manner currently only has more than 130 stores, compared with 4,500 Ruixing Coffee stores that started as early as 2018 at the end of 2019.</p><p>Luckin Coffee just reissued its 2019 financial report on June 30 this year, and stated that it will release its 2020 financial report as soon as possible. According to Ruixing Coffee's audited 2019 financial report, the revenue in 2018 and 2019 was 840 million yuan and 3.025 billion yuan respectively, and the net losses during the same period were 1.619 billion yuan and 3.16 billion yuan respectively.</p><p>The report of the temporary liquidator of Ruixing Coffee at the end of last year disclosed that Ruixing Coffee had achieved overall store profitability for the first time in August 2020, and more than 60% of its stores achieved store profitability in November 2020. In the first three quarters of 2020, Luckin Coffee achieved revenue of 2.69 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 34.5%. Some institutions predict that Luckin Coffee's revenue in 2020 will be between 3.8 billion and 4.2 billion yuan, or reach a minimum annual growth rate of 26%.</p><p>According to the latest data disclosed by Luckin Coffee, as of the end of June this year, the number of domestic stores exceeded 5,200, including about 4,000 directly-operated stores and more than 1,000 cooperative stores. Luckin Coffee previously disclosed that its strategic focus has shifted from rapid expansion to targeted expansion, and plans to open 4,800-6,900 directly-operated stores by 2023.</p><p>After completing debt and capital restructuring, Luckin Coffee is trying to re-establish its connection with the capital market. However, whether this chain coffee shop that has experienced financial scandals can be completely reversed still needs to be observed by the market.</p>","source":"lsy1568072423709","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Luckin Coffee's desperate reversal, Centurium Capital becomes the winner</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nLuckin Coffee's desperate reversal, Centurium Capital becomes the winner\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">大摩财经</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-07-20 11:09</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>A year ago, Ruixing Coffee was delisted amid a financial fraud scandal, which became a shame for Chinese concept stocks.</p><p>This chain coffee shop brand founded by Fujian businessman Lu Zhengyao and his \"Shenzhou Department\" team took only 17 months from opening the first store to listing, and only 13 months from listing to delisting.

So far, it has doubled in just three months, making a fortune again.</p><p>Li Hui's reduction and increase in Ruixing Coffee can be said to have calculated the rhythm step by step.</p><p><b>Does Luckin still have a chance?</b></p><p>It is worth noting that since the beginning of this year, the coffee chain business has regained the attention of capital. Manner Coffee announced the completion of a new round of financing in June this year, with a valuation of nearly US $3 billion. But Manner currently only has more than 130 stores, compared with 4,500 Ruixing Coffee stores that started as early as 2018 at the end of 2019.</p><p>Luckin Coffee just reissued its 2019 financial report on June 30 this year, and stated that it will release its 2020 financial report as soon as possible. According to Ruixing Coffee's audited 2019 financial report, the revenue in 2018 and 2019 was 840 million yuan and 3.025 billion yuan respectively, and the net losses during the same period were 1.619 billion yuan and 3.16 billion yuan respectively.</p><p>The report of the temporary liquidator of Ruixing Coffee at the end of last year disclosed that Ruixing Coffee had achieved overall store profitability for the first time in August 2020, and more than 60% of its stores achieved store profitability in November 2020. In the first three quarters of 2020, Luckin Coffee achieved revenue of 2.69 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 34.5%. Some institutions predict that Luckin Coffee's revenue in 2020 will be between 3.8 billion and 4.2 billion yuan, or reach a minimum annual growth rate of 26%.</p><p>According to the latest data disclosed by Luckin Coffee, as of the end of June this year, the number of domestic stores exceeded 5,200, including about 4,000 directly-operated stores and more than 1,000 cooperative stores. Luckin Coffee previously disclosed that its strategic focus has shifted from rapid expansion to targeted expansion, and plans to open 4,800-6,900 directly-operated stores by 2023.</p><p>After completing debt and capital restructuring, Luckin Coffee is trying to re-establish its connection with the capital market. However, whether this chain coffee shop that has experienced financial scandals can be completely reversed still needs to be observed by the market.</p>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n<p> source：<a

17.2%、投票权增至 45.2%。\n值得一提的是，大钲资本在4月以6.5美元/ADS出资认购可转换优先股时，瑞幸咖啡粉单的股价约在9-10美元/ADS，大钲资本相当于以大幅折价抄底，至目前仅三个月就已翻倍，再次大赚一笔。\n黎辉在瑞幸咖啡的一次减持、一次增持，可谓步步算准了节拍。\n瑞幸还有机会吗\n值得注意的是，今年以来，咖啡连锁生意正重新受到资本的关注，Manner咖啡在今年6月宣布完成新一轮融资，估值达到近30亿美元。但Manner目前只有130多家门店，相比之下早在2018年就起跑的瑞幸咖啡门店数在2019年末就达到4500家。\n瑞幸咖啡在今年6月30日刚补发了2019年财报，并表示将尽快发布2020年财报。据瑞幸咖啡经审计的2019年财报，2018、2019年营收分别为8.4亿元、30.25亿元，同期净亏损分别为16.19亿元、31.6亿元。\n瑞幸咖啡临时清算人在去年底的报告披露，瑞幸咖啡已在2020年8月首次实现总体店面盈利，60%以上的门店都在2020年11月实现了店面盈利。2020年前三季度，瑞幸咖啡实现营收26.9亿元，同比增长34.5%。有机构预测称，瑞幸咖啡2020年的营收在38亿-42亿元之间，或达到最低26%的年增长率。\n瑞幸咖啡最新披露的数据显示，截止今年6月底国内门店数量超过5200家，其中包括约4000家直营店及超过1000家合作门店。瑞幸咖啡此前披露，其战略重点已从快速扩张转为针对性扩张，计划至2023年开设4800家-6900家直营店。\n在完成债务和资本重组后，瑞幸咖啡正在试图重新建立与资本市场的连接。不过，这家经历过财务丑闻的连锁咖啡店是否能彻底反转，仍需要市场的继续观察。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"LKNCY":0.9,"LK":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":972,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171462635,"gmtCreate":1626757190927,"gmtModify":1703764635720,"author":{"id":"4089858289721970","authorId":"4089858289721970","name":"Eileen76","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089858289721970","authorIdStr":"4089858289721970"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"…","listText":"…","text":"…","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/171462635","repostId":"1130871607","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1130871607","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"为用户提供金融资讯、行情、数据，旨在帮助投资者理解世界，做投资决策。","home_visible":1,"media_name":"老虎资讯综合","id":"102","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1626754719,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1130871607?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-20

It raised nearly US $1.6 billion after IPO and listing, with a maximum market value of US $12 billion, creating the \"Luckin myth\". But soon, the \"myth\" piled up by false transactions was shattered. When Ruixing Coffee was delisted, there was only a market value of US $350 million left, which led to Lu Zhengyao's \"Shenzhou Department\"-including China Car Rental, UCAR, Borgward Automobile, etc.--collapsed one after another.</p><p>But just after being almost forgotten by the capital market, Luckin Coffee has rebounded in the US stock pink sheet market in the past year. Starting from the lowest of US $0.95 when it was delisted and entered the pink sheet market in July 2020, Luckin Coffee rose to a maximum of US $15.65 last week, a cumulative increase of 15 times; Since the official release of the 2019 financial report on June 30, the highest increase in half a month has been nearly 70%. As of July 16, Luckin Coffee's closing price was US $12.88, with a market value of US $3.722 billion, ten times the market value of delisting.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b4e271afaef9c3d48728fe0003b1a982\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Morgan Stanley Finance noticed that after the financial fraud scandal broke out, Lu Zhengyao and his forces have been purged out of Ruixing Coffee. The former ally Dacheng Capital, who turned against Lu Zhengyao, has actually taken control of Ruixing Coffee and has become the key force of Ruixing Coffee's Jedi reorganization. and the biggest beneficiary.</p><p><b>Restructuring Ruixing</b></p><p>Luckin Coffee went public on Nasdaq in May 2019, and was shorted by an anonymous report released by Muddy Waters in early 2020. In April of that year, it was exposed to financial fraud, triggering a series of subsequent turmoil. On June 30, 2020, Ruixing delisted and transferred to the US stock pink sheet market.</p><p>In July of that year, after an investigation by the Ministry of Finance of China, it was disclosed that from April 2019 to the end of 2019, Ruixing Coffee increased its transaction volume by 2.246 billion yuan through fictitious commodity coupons, inflated its revenue by 2.119 billion yuan, and inflated its profits by 908 million yuan. This also means that most of the performance myths woven by Ruixing Coffee are pure fiction.</p><p>Bearing the notoriety of financial fraud and delisting, Ruixing Coffee at that time could be described as being beaten by everyone and falling to the bottom. Not only was it caught in the trouble of investor class action lawsuits and SEC investigations in the United States, but there were also internal disputes between Lu Zhengyao's faction and other shareholders such as Centurium Capital. governance disputes. At the same time, the delisting of Ruixing Coffee also triggered the breach clause, and creditors sued Ruixing Coffee in the Cayman Court for bankruptcy liquidation. The court appointed a provisional liquidator for \"low-degree intervention\".</p><p>The turning point of matters was Lu Zhengyao's exit from Ruixing Coffee.</p><p>In July last year, the equity of Luckin Coffee controlled by the Lu Zhengyao family through Haode and other entities was ruled by the British Virgin Islands court to be managed and liquidated by KPMG due to the plummeting stock price and the default of pledged loans. It lost all its equity, and then lost the board dispute. In September 2020, the board of directors of Ruixing Coffee, which was reorganized under the promotion of shareholders such as Centurium Capital, completely bid farewell to the Lu Zhengyao era, and professional managers such as Guo Jinyi took the lead. Although Lu Zhengyao and his faction reported Guo Jinyi in early 2021, it did not have an impact.</p><p>However, the mess of Ruixing Coffee still needs to be cleaned up. Fortunately, at the end of 2020, Luckin Coffee and the SEC reached a settlement agreement with a fine of US $180 million, eliminating U.S. regulatory risks. At the same time, the provisional liquidator appointed by Ruixing Coffee submitted its first announcement to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands in December 2020, stating that Ruixing still has more than US $700 million in cash in its account enough to repay debts, and Ruixing Coffee's business is still operating normally. It even achieved overall store profitability for the first time in August of that year, indicating that the situation of Ruixing Coffee is not bad.</p><p>Next, Luckin Coffee accelerated its debt and capital restructuring this year. In February 2021, Luckin Coffee declared bankruptcy in New York as a procedural step in debt restructuring. In March 2021, Luckin Coffee stated that it had reached a restructuring agreement (RSA) with major bondholders, which included raising US $250 million and reducing the registered capital of domestic entities to fulfill restructured debts.</p><p>It is worth mentioning that in April 2020, after the financial fraud scandal broke out, Ruixing Coffee soared its registered capital from US $1.55 billion to US $2.05 billion. In May of this year, Ruixing Coffee completed a capital reduction of US $250 million for debt restructuring.</p><p>But there is another key question, who will continue to invest in Luckin Coffee after the financial scandal? Facts have proved that it was old friends and major investors of Ruixing Coffee, Centurium Capital and Joy Capital, who finally made the move.</p><p><b>Winner Li Hui</b></p><p>Li Hui and Liu Erhai were once staunch supporters of Lu Zhengyao. When they worked for Warburg Pincus and Legend Holdings respectively, they jointly invested in Shenzhou-based companies such as CAR Rental and UCAR. They also founded Centurium Capital and Joy Capital respectively. After jointly invested in Luckin Coffee.</p><p>Li Hui's Centurium Capital is the largest institutional investor in Ruixing Coffee. Shortly after its establishment, Centurium Capital raised its first US dollar fund (with a total size of US $2 billion) in 2018. The first project it invested in was Ruixing Coffee, with a total investment of nearly US $180 million. When Ruixing Coffee went public, Centurium Capital holds more than 14% of the shares and is the third largest shareholder after Lu Zhengyao and Qian Zhiya.</p><p>In January 2020, Luckin Coffee refinanced US $900 million by issuing new shares and convertible bonds when the stock price was at a high point. At the same time, Centurium Capital reduced its holdings at a high price of US $42/ADS and cashed out US $230 million. \"Achieved substantial profits. Compared with Joy Capital, which insists on \"not selling a share\", Li Hui's Centurium Capital has achieved perfect cash-out on Ruixing Coffee, reflecting the high rank of a smart investor.</p><p>After the financial scandal of Luckin Coffee broke out, Li Hui quickly and publicly broke with Lu Zhengyao, and fought with the latter over board seats and corporate governance rights. After Lu Zhengyao's equity was liquidated, he became Luckin Coffee's biggest speaker.</p><p>The ownership structure disclosed by Ruixing Coffee shows that as of May 31, 2021, the total share capital of Ruixing Coffee is 1.88 billion Class A shares and 144 million Class B shares. Dacheng Capital holds all 144 million Class B shares, that is, Ruixing Coffee 7.15% of the equity. Since Class B shares have super voting rights, Dacheng Capital holds 43.50% of the voting rights of Ruixing Coffee. Joy Capital holds 5.30% of the shares and 3.22% of the voting rights.</p><p>However, Centurium Capital has further increased its shareholding in Ruixing Coffee through a new round of financing.</p><p>In April 2021, Ruixing Coffee stated that it had reached a new round of financing agreements totaling US $250 million with the company's shareholders Centurium Capital and Joy Capital. According to the investment agreement, Centurium Capital subscribed for US $240 million in senior convertible preferred shares, and Joy Capital subscribed for US $10 million at a subscription price of US $6.5 per ADS (equivalent to 8 shares). If Ruixing Coffee's debt restructuring plan is completed, the two parties can invest an additional US $150 million year-on-year.</p><p>The latest data shows that the total share capital of Ruixing Coffee is 289 million shares. Based on this calculation, the US $240 million convertible preferred shares of Centurium Capital has been fully converted recently. This also means that Centurium Capital's shareholding in Ruixing Coffee has increased to 17.2%, and its voting rights have increased to 45.2%.</p><p>It is worth mentioning that when Centurium Capital invested US $6.5/ADS to subscribe for convertible preferred shares in April, the stock price of Ruixing coffee powder was about US $9-10/ADS, and Centurium Capital was equivalent to buying the bottom at a large discount. So far, it has doubled in just three months, making a fortune again.</p><p>Li Hui's reduction and increase in Ruixing Coffee can be said to have calculated the rhythm step by step.</p><p><b>Does Luckin still have a chance?</b></p><p>It is worth noting that since the beginning of this year, the coffee chain business has regained the attention of capital. Manner Coffee announced the completion of a new round of financing in June this year, with a valuation of nearly US $3 billion. But Manner currently only has more than 130 stores, compared with 4,500 Ruixing Coffee stores that started as early as 2018 at the end of 2019.</p><p>Luckin Coffee just reissued its 2019 financial report on June 30 this year, and stated that it will release its 2020 financial report as soon as possible. According to Ruixing Coffee's audited 2019 financial report, the revenue in 2018 and 2019 was 840 million yuan and 3.025 billion yuan respectively, and the net losses during the same period were 1.619 billion yuan and 3.16 billion yuan respectively.</p><p>The report of the temporary liquidator of Ruixing Coffee at the end of last year disclosed that Ruixing Coffee had achieved overall store profitability for the first time in August 2020, and more than 60% of its stores achieved store profitability in November 2020. In the first three quarters of 2020, Luckin Coffee achieved revenue of 2.69 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 34.5%. Some institutions predict that Luckin Coffee's revenue in 2020 will be between 3.8 billion and 4.2 billion yuan, or reach a minimum annual growth rate of 26%.</p><p>According to the latest data disclosed by Luckin Coffee, as of the end of June this year, the number of domestic stores exceeded 5,200, including about 4,000 directly-operated stores and more than 1,000 cooperative stores. Luckin Coffee previously disclosed that its strategic focus has shifted from rapid expansion to targeted expansion, and plans to open 4,800-6,900 directly-operated stores by 2023.</p><p>After completing debt and capital restructuring, Luckin Coffee is trying to re-establish its connection with the capital market. However, whether this chain coffee shop that has experienced financial scandals can be completely reversed still needs to be observed by the market.</p>","source":"lsy1568072423709","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Luckin Coffee's desperate reversal, Centurium Capital becomes the winner</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nLuckin Coffee's desperate reversal, Centurium Capital becomes the winner\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">大摩财经</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-07-20 11:09</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>A year ago, Ruixing Coffee was delisted amid a financial fraud scandal, which became a shame for Chinese concept stocks.</p><p>This chain coffee shop brand founded by Fujian businessman Lu Zhengyao and his \"Shenzhou Department\" team took only 17 months from opening the first store to listing, and only 13 months from listing to delisting. It raised nearly US $1.6 billion after IPO and listing, with a maximum market value of US $12 billion, creating the \"Luckin myth\". But soon, the \"myth\" piled up by false transactions was shattered. When Ruixing Coffee was delisted, there was only a market value of US $350 million left, which led to Lu Zhengyao's \"Shenzhou Department\"-including China Car Rental, UCAR, Borgward Automobile, etc.--collapsed one after another.</p><p>But just after being almost forgotten by the capital market, Luckin Coffee has rebounded in the US stock pink sheet market in the past year. Starting from the lowest of US $0.95 when it was delisted and entered the pink sheet market in July 2020, Luckin Coffee rose to a maximum of US $15.65 last week, a cumulative increase of 15 times; Since the official release of the 2019 financial report on June 30, the highest increase in half a month has been nearly 70%. As of July 16, Luckin Coffee's closing price was US $12.88, with a market value of US $3.722 billion, ten times the market value of delisting.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b4e271afaef9c3d48728fe0003b1a982\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Morgan Stanley Finance noticed that after the financial fraud scandal broke out, Lu Zhengyao and his forces have been purged out of Ruixing Coffee. The former ally Dacheng Capital, who turned against Lu Zhengyao, has actually taken control of Ruixing Coffee and has become the key force of Ruixing Coffee's Jedi reorganization. and the biggest beneficiary.</p><p><b>Restructuring Ruixing</b></p><p>Luckin Coffee went public on Nasdaq in May 2019, and was shorted by an anonymous report released by Muddy Waters in early 2020. In April of that year, it was exposed to financial fraud, triggering a series of subsequent turmoil. On June 30, 2020, Ruixing delisted and transferred to the US stock pink sheet market.</p><p>In July of that year, after an investigation by the Ministry of Finance of China, it was disclosed that from April 2019 to the end of 2019, Ruixing Coffee increased its transaction volume by 2.246 billion yuan through fictitious commodity coupons, inflated its revenue by 2.119 billion yuan, and inflated its profits by 908 million yuan. This also means that most of the performance myths woven by Ruixing Coffee are pure fiction.</p><p>Bearing the notoriety of financial fraud and delisting, Ruixing Coffee at that time could be described as being beaten by everyone and falling to the bottom. Not only was it caught in the trouble of investor class action lawsuits and SEC investigations in the United States, but there were also internal disputes between Lu Zhengyao's faction and other shareholders such as Centurium Capital. governance disputes. At the same time, the delisting of Ruixing Coffee also triggered the breach clause, and creditors sued Ruixing Coffee in the Cayman Court for bankruptcy liquidation. The court appointed a provisional liquidator for \"low-degree intervention\".</p><p>The turning point of matters was Lu Zhengyao's exit from Ruixing Coffee.</p><p>In July last year, the equity of Luckin Coffee controlled by the Lu Zhengyao family through Haode and other entities was ruled by the British Virgin Islands court to be managed and liquidated by KPMG due to the plummeting stock price and the default of pledged loans. It lost all its equity, and then lost the board dispute. In September 2020, the board of directors of Ruixing Coffee, which was reorganized under the promotion of shareholders such as Centurium Capital, completely bid farewell to the Lu Zhengyao era, and professional managers such as Guo Jinyi took the lead. Although Lu Zhengyao and his faction reported Guo Jinyi in early 2021, it did not have an impact.</p><p>However, the mess of Ruixing Coffee still needs to be cleaned up. Fortunately, at the end of 2020, Luckin Coffee and the SEC reached a settlement agreement with a fine of US $180 million, eliminating U.S. regulatory risks.

17.2%、投票权增至 45.2%。\n值得一提的是，大钲资本在4月以6.5美元/ADS出资认购可转换优先股时，瑞幸咖啡粉单的股价约在9-10美元/ADS，大钲资本相当于以大幅折价抄底，至目前仅三个月就已翻倍，再次大赚一笔。\n黎辉在瑞幸咖啡的一次减持、一次增持，可谓步步算准了节拍。\n瑞幸还有机会吗\n值得注意的是，今年以来，咖啡连锁生意正重新受到资本的关注，Manner咖啡在今年6月宣布完成新一轮融资，估值达到近30亿美元。但Manner目前只有130多家门店，相比之下早在2018年就起跑的瑞幸咖啡门店数在2019年末就达到4500家。\n瑞幸咖啡在今年6月30日刚补发了2019年财报，并表示将尽快发布2020年财报。据瑞幸咖啡经审计的2019年财报，2018、2019年营收分别为8.4亿元、30.25亿元，同期净亏损分别为16.19亿元、31.6亿元。\n瑞幸咖啡临时清算人在去年底的报告披露，瑞幸咖啡已在2020年8月首次实现总体店面盈利，60%以上的门店都在2020年11月实现了店面盈利。2020年前三季度，瑞幸咖啡实现营收26.9亿元，同比增长34.5%。有机构预测称，瑞幸咖啡2020年的营收在38亿-42亿元之间，或达到最低26%的年增长率。\n瑞幸咖啡最新披露的数据显示，截止今年6月底国内门店数量超过5200家，其中包括约4000家直营店及超过1000家合作门店。瑞幸咖啡此前披露，其战略重点已从快速扩张转为针对性扩张，计划至2023年开设4800家-6900家直营店。\n在完成债务和资本重组后，瑞幸咖啡正在试图重新建立与资本市场的连接。不过，这家经历过财务丑闻的连锁咖啡店是否能彻底反转，仍需要市场的继续观察。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"LKNCY":0.9,"LK":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":972,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171462635,"gmtCreate":1626757190927,"gmtModify":1703764635720,"author":{"id":"4089858289721970","authorId":"4089858289721970","name":"Eileen76","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4089858289721970","idStr":"4089858289721970"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"…","listText":"…","text":"…","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/171462635","repostId":"1130871607","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1130871607","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"为用户提供金融资讯、行情、数据，旨在帮助投资者理解世界，做投资决策。","home_visible":1,"media_name":"老虎资讯综合","id":"102","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1626754719,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1130871607?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-20
