HONG KONG , Dec. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Dunxin Financial Holdings Limited (“Dunxin” or the “Company”) (OTC Pink: DXFFY), a company engaged in real estate operation management and investment and a digital technology security business in Hong Kong , today announced that it plans to change the ratio of its American depositary shares (“ADSs”) from one (1) ADS representing four hundred and eighty (480) Class A ordinary shares to one (1) ADS representing sixty thousand (60,000) Class A ordinary shares. The effect of the ratio change on the ADS trading price on the OTC Pink (the “OTC”) is expected to take place at the open of trading on December 4, 2024 (U.S. Eastern Time). For the Company’s ADS holders, the ADS ratio change will have the same effect as a one-for-one hundred and twenty-five reverse split. There will be no change to the Company’s Class A ordinary shares. ADS holders of record on the effective date will need to surrender their ADS to the depositary bank for cancellation and exchange in connection with the ADS ratio change, with further details to be provided in the notice by the depositary bank. As of the effective date for the ADS ratio change, Dunxin’s ADSs will continue to be traded on the OTC under the symbol “DXFFY”. No fractional new ADSs will be issued in connection with the change in the ADS ratio. Instead, fractional entitlements to new ADSs will be aggregated and sold by the depositary bank and the net cash proceeds from the sale of the fractional ADS entitlements (after deduction of fees, taxes and expenses) will be distributed to the applicable ADS holders by the depositary bank. As a result of the change in the ADS ratio, the ADS price is expected to increase proportionally, although the Company can give no assurance that the ADS price after the change in the ADS ratio will be equal to or greater than the ADS price on a proportionate basis.

After falling behind 17-0 at halftime and being dominated most of the game, the Bulldogs may have locked up a spot in the College Football Playoff — no matter how they fare in next weekend’s Southeastern Conference championship game.

The Volunteers (10-2, 6-2 Southeastern Conference; No. 8 CFP) needed a big victory to impress the College Football Playoff committee enough to earn a home playoff game in December. They beat Vanderbilt (6-6, 3-5) for a sixth straight season. Better yet, they rebounded from a nightmare start giving up the first 14 points by scoring 29 straight points. They led 24-17 at halftime on Iamaleava's first three TD passes. Junior Sherrill returned the opening kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown for Vanderbilt to stun a mostly orange crowd. Dylan Sampson fumbled on the Vols' second play from scrimmage, and Sedrick Alexanader's 4-yard TD run on a 26-yard drive put Vandy up 14-0 quickly.

Kakko's late goal lifts Rangers past Canadiens 4-3Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner will be sidelined indefinitely with a torn right oblique muscle, the NBA team said Saturday, a major blow for a club already missing star Paolo Banchero with the same injury. Wagner was hurt in the Magic's 102-94 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday. Jeff Weltman, Orlando president of basketball operations, said he would be re-evaluated in four weeks. Wagner has played a key role in keeping the Magic competitive since Banchero was injured on October 30. He has scored at least 20 points in nine straight games and is averaging 24.4 points, 5.7 assists and 5.6 rebounds per game for the season. At 16-9 the Magic are in third place in the Eastern Conference. However, they are still without Banchero, who said on Monday he had "finally" been able to take part in some on-court ball-handling and spot shooting practice. "Obviously (there) wasn't any sprinting or cutting or anything," Banchero said. "But hopefully in the next few weeks I can start getting into more of that and just work my way back into playing shape." bb/sev

New Delhi, Nov 30 (IANS): Delhi Pradesh Congress Committee President Devender Yadav on Saturday visited some Mohalla Clinics during the Delhi Nyay Yatra to check on former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s so-called “model” of health care. During the visit, Yadav was shocked to find the clinics in a state of neglect, without doctors or nurses. Exposing yet another “jhoot ki revadi” (false promise of freebie) of Kejriwal, Yadav said that Kejriwal shut the well-run dispensaries established by the Congress government offering free treatment to the poor and opened Mohalla Clinics but these clinics became a gold mine of corruption for Kejriwal. Devender Yadav said that Kejriwal, who had boasted that he would open 1,000 Mohalla Clinics to provide free tests and treatment to the people, could not even create half that number of clinics in 10 years. Even the clinics he managed to set up are in ruins with no doctors or medicines. Some of them are being used by stray cattle and anti-social elements, he said. Yadav said that Kejriwal had promised that 200 tests would be conducted free of cost for poor patients through Mohalla Clinics, but lakhs of fake pathology and radiology tests were conducted on non-existent patients at the Mohalla Clinics. He alleged payments were made to private labs in the name of referrals. The Congress leader said that Kejriwal used Mohalla Clinics to swindle taxpayers’ money as he had done in the liquor scam, classroom construction scam and many other illegal acts. Earlier during his yatra, the Delhi Congress President Yadav unveiled a tableau featuring a “Sheesh Mahal” (the former CM’s official house in the eye of an alleged corruption case) and a gold-plated toilet seat, with a liquor bottle in front, as symbols of unprecedented corruption by Kejriwal. The tableau was unveiled before the start of the Delhi Nyay Yatra from Shastri Park in Hari Nagar Assembly in the presence of thousands of Congress workers and local residents. Yadav said that Kejriwal, who hailed to be from a humble background, lived in a small flat, drove a Wagon-R, and said that he would not accept any official bungalow, car or security, built a Rs 175 crore “Sheesh Mahal” illegally for himself, with a gold-plated commode, and travelled in luxury vehicles with security to flaunt his power. Yadav said Kejriwal did nothing for the people or for the development of the city.GEORGIA 44, GA TECH 42 (8 overtimes) ATHENS, Ga. — Nate Frazier ran for a 2-point conversion in the eighth overtime of a marathon for the ages after No. 6 Georgia pulled off an improbable fourth-quarter comeback, giving the Bulldogs a 44-42 victory over Georgia Tech.

Coastal Carolina 48, Georgia State 27 Get local news delivered to your inbox!Informal vote counts in Ireland's General Election centres suggest potential breakthroughs and challenges for some established incumbents, following an exit poll that showed the three main parties nearly neck and neck. The tallies, conducted by party activists and volunteers from 9am, provide a more localised view of the potential result than Friday night's exit poll. Sinn Fein , the largest opposition party, held 21.1% of first-preference votes, slightly ahead of current coalition partners Fine Gael and Fianna Fail at 21% and 19.5% respectively, according to the Ipsos BandA Exit Poll commissioned by RTE, The Irish Times, TG4 and Trinity College Dublin. Now that the boxes are open, the votes must be sorted before the formal count begins, a process that could take days due to Ireland's complex proportional representation system with a single transferable vote (PR-STV), where candidates are ranked by preference. Read more: Late Late Show exit poll shows tight race in Irish General Election Read more: Parties make last-ditch attempts to attract votes on eve of general election This means that voting slips need to be counted multiple times, a task that can last days. The early inconclusive indications have shifted speculation towards the complicated maths of government formation, as the country's several smaller parties and many independents potentially vie for a place in government. First counts, which could see the election of new members of parliament, known as TDs in Ireland, are expected later on Saturday. The counts are indicating potential difficulties for Fianna Fail in Wicklow, where the party's sole candidate in the constituency, Health Minister Stephen Donnelly, is anticipated to face a tough fight, with the possibility of losing his seat looming. Green Party leader Roderic O'Gorman, who leads the junior partner in the outgoing coalition, also appears vulnerable, reports the Irish Mirror . He had garnered 7% of the votes in the unofficial poll with over half of the boxes tallied by midday. Attention is also turning to independent candidate Gerard Hutch, who currently ranks fourth in the four-seat constituency of Dublin Central following the completion of the unofficial tallies there. Last spring, Mr Hutch was acquitted by the non-jury Special Criminal Court of the murder of David Byrne, marking one of the initial fatal incidents in the Hutch-Kinahan gangland feud. Mr Byrne, aged 33, was fatally shot six times during a busy boxing weigh-in at the Regency Hotel in February 2016. A Special Criminal Court judge labelled Mr Hutch, 61, as the patriarchal figurehead of the Hutch criminal organisation and stated he had been involved in "serious criminal conduct". The outcome in this constituency is being keenly observed as other candidates await the possibility that transfers from those eliminated might ultimately push him out of the race. Initially, it seemed unlikely that a single smaller party would be needed to secure a majority. This has led to speculation about the potential for a coalition involving four parties or independents - a scenario some view as a recipe for unstable governance. Fianna Fail and Fine Gael leaders have consistently dismissed the idea of a coalition with Sinn Fein due to significant policy differences. Consequently, the opposition party faces a more difficult path to government formation. However, seemingly insurmountable political differences have been overcome as recently as 2020 when an inconclusive general election result led to Fine Gael and Fianna Fail, two parties born from opposing sides of Ireland's 1920s Civil War, agreeing to put aside nearly a century of hostility and share power in the outgoing coalition. This was despite similar pre-election pledges against forming coalitions. In that election, Sinn Fein won the popular vote but didn't run enough candidates to secure sufficient Dail seats for a realistic shot at government formation. The transfer of votes based on voter preferences, a crucial aspect of PR-STV, is a key determinant in the final outcome of any Irish election. This system allows candidates to secure a seat even if they don't receive enough votes in the first count. Over 3.6 million people registered to vote in the election, which covered 43 constituencies and focused on issues such as the housing crisis, immigration surge, cost of living, economic management, and potential future trade shocks. The country's parliament has a total of 174 seats to be filled, a record number. However, as the Ceann Comhairle, or speaker of the house, is automatically returned, only 173 seats will be filled during the counting process.

I want to thank the entire Campbell's team for their support and commitment to the strategy we have executed together. Campbell’s will always hold a special place in my heart. While I am stepping away a bit earlier than I anticipated, I feel like I have one more act in my career. The Washington Commanders role is a once-in-a-lifetime position that blends my passion for business and love of sports.
