China s Luckin Coffee to pay USD 180 million fine in fraud case

Washington, Dec 17:China’s Luckin Coffee has agreed to pay a USD 180 million penalty to settle accounting fraud charges, the Securities and Exchange Commission says. The SEC charged the company with defrauding investors by misstating its revenue, expenses, and net operating loss to appear to have been more profitable and growing faster than it actually was, and to meet the company’s earnings estimates. The Chinese rival to Starbucks fabricated more than USD 300 million in retail sales, the SEC said in a statement. It said the misconduct continued from April 2019 until January 2020. Luckin’s shares traded on the NASDAQ until July 13, 2020. They now trade on the OTC Pink board, or Pink Open Market, the most speculative tier for trading of over-the-counter stocks.

From at least April 2019 through January 2020, Luckin intentionally fabricated approximately $311 million in retail sales transactions “in an effort to falsely appear to achieve rapid growth and increased profitability and to meet the company’s earnings estimates,” according to the SEC’s complaint, filed Wednesday in the Southern District of New York. Certain executive officers and senior managers at Luckin attempted to conceal the fraud by inflating the company’s expenses by more than $190 million, creating a fake operations database, and altering accounting and bank records to hide the misconduct from the company’s finance department and others, the complaint states.

The U.S. Securities and Commission (SEC) fine on the China-based rival to Starbucks comes after it said earlier this year that much of its 2019 sales were fabricated, sending its shares plunging and sparking an investigation by China’s securities regulator and the SEC. The SEC said it found that Luckin “intentionally and materially overstated its reported revenue and expenses and materially understated its net loss in its publicly disclosed financial statements in 2019.”
