A-share companies are busy selling assets again at the end of the year.

Every quarter, the A-share market will usher in a wave of asset sales. Compared with previous years, this year's listed companies are more proactive, enthusiastic, and urgent in selling assets. According to preliminary statistics by reporters, since October, nearly 250 companies have issued announcements related to selling assets, doubling compared to the same period last year. In terms of the purpose of selling, some companies are divesting non-core assets to accelerate the implementation of their core business focus strategy; some companies hope to accelerate the return of funds by selling assets at the end of the year; some companies have unsatisfactory performance in the first three quarters and urgently hope to achieve revenues and boost their annual performance at the end of the year. Reporters have learned from interviews that behind the "wave of selling assets," on the one hand, it highlights the practical need for listed companies to accelerate business transformation and upgrading, and on the other hand, it reflects the pressure of the new delisting regulations on companies to meet financial data standards. However, the urgency of transactions, tight deadlines, and heavy tasks mean that there is considerable uncertainty for listed companies to complete the sale of assets before the end of the year. Recently, many companies have experienced long periods of no interest in listed assets, leading to multiple failures; some companies selling assets have attracted regulatory attention due to issues such as related transactions and the reasonableness of valuation pricing.
