Tingo Group (NASDAQ: TIO), a profitable and fast-growing fintech, agri-fintech and food company, today provided a response to a statement made by short seller Hindenburg Research on Sept. 5, 2023. In the announcement, the company noted that Hindenburg has once again attempted to repeat its previous allegations despite the completion of a detailed investigation into the short-seller report of June 6, 2023, which disproved all such allegations. The company has reconfirmed its rebuttal of all the allegations made by Hindenburg, as summarized within its press releases of Aug. 30, 2023, and Sept. 1, 2023. It is noted by Tingo Group that Hindenburg has attempted to discredit certain information contained in the two press releases including, for example, in connection with the confirmation of the company’s cash balances, the details of the cooperatives: Ailoje Royal Farms Multi-Purpose Cooperative and Kebbi (Dala) Multipurpose Cooperative Society, and the details of UGC Technologies Limited (and its supply company in China), despite the fact that such information has been investigated in detail by leading major law firms. At the same time, Hindenburg appears to be ignoring the numerous errors it made in its “research,” including, for example, through its questioning of the wrong parties, relying on unverified social media/internet sources, misreading financial statements and distorting/misrepresenting various information. Tingo Group therefore warns stockholders as to Hindenburg’s false and misleading statements, which, as disclosed within its own disclaimer, are seemingly for the purpose of its direct financial gain. With in mind, the company is speaking with its advisers and stockholders about taking legal action against Hindenburg.
