SHANGHAI, July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Noah Holdings Limited (“Noah” or the “Company”) (NYSE: NOAH), a leading and pioneer wealth management service provider in China offering comprehensive one-stop advisory services on global investment and asset allocation primarily for high net worth investors, today announced the pricing of the global offering (the “Global Offering”) of an aggregate of 1,100,000 Class A ordinary shares of the Company (the “Offer Shares”). The Global Offering comprises of an international offering (the “International Offering”) and a Hong Kong public offering (the “Hong Kong Public Offering”).

The final offer price for both the International Offering and the Hong Kong Public Offering (the “Offer Price”) has been set as HK$292.00 per Offer Share. Based on the ratio of two NYSE-listed American depositary shares (“ADSs”) per one Class A ordinary share, the Offer Price translates to approximately US$18.60 per ADS based on an exchange rate of HK$7.8498 to US$1.00 as of June 17, 2022, as set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board.

Subject to approval from The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Hong Kong Stock Exchange”), the Class A ordinary shares of the Company are expected to begin trading on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on Wednesday, July 13, 2022 under the stock code “6686.” The Global Offering is expected to close on the same day, subject to customary closing conditions.

In addition, the Company has granted an over-allotment option to the international underwriters, exercisable by the sole representative for itself and on behalf of the international underwriters, from the date of the international underwriting agreement to be dated on or around July 6, 2022 until 30 days after the last day for lodging applications under the Hong Kong Public Offering, to require the Company to issue up to an aggregate of 165,000 additional Offer Shares at the Offer Price.

The gross proceeds to the Company from the Global Offering, before deducting the underwriting fees and the estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, are expected to be HK$321.2 million (assuming the over-allotment option is not exercised).

The Company plans to use the net proceeds from the Global Offering for further developing its wealth management business, for further developing its asset management business, for selectively pursuing potential investments, for investing in its in-house technology across all business lines, for overseas expansion, and for general corporate purposes. To the extent that the net proceeds from the Global Offering are not immediately required for the above purposes or if the Company is unable to put into effect any part of its plan as intended, the Company will hold such funds in short-term interest-bearing accounts at authorized licensed banks.
