Sinovac Biotech Board Members Confirmed Until 2026
Sinovac Biotech announced that the Antigua High Court has ordered that the directors Simon Anderson, Shan Fu, Shuge Jiao, Yuk Lam Lo, Yumin Qiu, Yu Wang, Andrew Yan and Yin Weidong, will comprise the board of the company until the trial listed in late April/early May 2026. The Antigua High Court decision arises from a hearing that took place on October 27, at which applicants SAIF Partners, OrbiMed Partners Master Fund and 1Globe Capital each sought injunctions to confirm the composition of their respective favored boards, pending determination of a dispute over the outcome of the company's special shareholders meeting on July 8. The hearing of the SSM Dispute has been scheduled to take place in the Antigua High Court in late April/early May 2026, with judgment to be delivered by the Court thereafter. A board meeting was held on December 17 to make efforts to restore trading of the company's shares on Nasdaq, to explore opportunities to properly and legally resolve the company's ongoing disputes, and to take all necessary steps, including to facilitate to reach agreements among all parties. Andrew Yan, chairman of the board of Sinovac, stated, "The current Board is committed to the long-term and sustainable development of the Company. The Board and its Audit Committee will collaborate closely with the auditors to complete audit. The Board trusts and supports the CEO and management team in continuing to implement the Company's current development strategy, maintaining operational stability, continuously enhancing shareholder value through sustained business growth, and collaboratively promoting the comprehensive development of the Company."
Sinovac Biotech Investors Show Backing for Dividend Payout
Sinovac Biotech shareholder Heng Ren Silk Road Investments LLC "announced that it has heard from more than 100 independent Sinovac shareholders expressing overwhelming support for the immediate payment of a $19.00 dividend previously declared by the board. Sinovac's stock has been halted from trading since 2019. As a result, Sinovac shareholders missed out on an extraordinary windfall from the success of its COVID-19 vaccine, CoronaVac, and its billions of dollars in sales during the pandemic due to the trading halt. In July 2025, the current Board paid a $55.00 dividend to shareholders as partial compensation for dividends that had not been paid during the trading halt. The board declared an additional $19.00 dividend per common share on June 17, 2025. The dividend was announced as part of the current board's effort to pay independent Sinovac shareholders dividends they did not receive but which had been paid to certain affiliates and insiders who were minority shareholders of Sinovac subsidiaries. More than four months later, Sinovac has failed to announce record and payment dates for the declared dividend. Sinovac's failure to provide an update on the promised dividend is especially surprising as both the current board and the SAIF-led consortium that is seeking to replace the current board campaigned on the promise to pay dividends to benefit Sinovac shareholders."
