Insights

Board approved terminating the ADR program and converting ADSs into Class A shares for direct NYSE listing on November 17, 2025.

Cango will mandatorily cancel ADSs after market close on November 14, 2025 and distribute two Class A ordinary shares for each ADS. Trading of the Class A shares is expected to begin on November 17, 2025 under the existing symbol "CANG." This moves U.S. holders from an indirect ADS structure to direct shareholder status and removes depositary fees borne by ADS holders.

The business mechanism is straightforward: conversion of ADR/ADS mechanics into direct-listed ordinary shares on the NYSE, preserving the ticker. Dependencies and risks are operational and timing-related: successful distribution of shares by the Depositary, broker handling of the share conversion on the noted dates, and market acceptance of the new share register. Watch the Depositary termination notice to holders (distributed on October 15, 2025) and confirmation from the NYSE around the close of business on November 14, 2025 and the open on November 17, 2025 for final execution and trading continuity over the immediate one-week transition horizon.

HONG KONG, Oct. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Cango Inc. (NYSE: CANG) ("Cango" or the "Company") today announced that its board of directors has approved the termination of its American depository receipt ("ADR") program*. The ADR program and the related Deposit Agreement are expected to terminate after market closes on Friday, November 14, 2025.  At such time, the Company's ADSs will be mandatorily cancelled and the Class A ordinary shares underlying the ADSs will be distributed to holders of the ADSs. Each holder of one ADS will receive two Class A ordinary shares of the Company. The Company expects its Class A ordinary shares will be listed and commence trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the Company's existing symbol "CANG" when market opens on Monday, November 17, 2025, the trading day immediately after termination of the ADR program.

The Company's  board of directors has determined that termination of the ADR program and listing of the Class A ordinary shares directly is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. Among others, a direct listing of the Class A ordinary shares on NYSE will allow U.S. investors to exercise their rights directly as shareholders of the Company, as opposed to indirectly through the Depositary, and will eliminate depositary fees born by ADS holders. The transition may also enhance institutional visibility for the Company and support the Company's strategy of becoming a U.S.-centric organization, which may broaden its investor base and appeal.

The Company has instructed the Depositary to distribute a termination notice to holders of ADSs on October 15, 2025, which will provide more information regarding the termination of the ADR program.

*Note: The ADR program being terminated was established pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2018, as amended, among the Company, Citibank, N.A. (the "Depositary"), and the holders and beneficial owners of American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") issued thereunder (the "Deposit Agreement").
