Recent Developments

The majority of the Company’s newly recruited branded retailers are located in Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Yunnan/Guizhou, Guangdong/Hainan and Henan provinces. The Company remains focused on expanding its distribution networks and deepening its penetration in both new and traditional markets.

 

Update on Go-private Proposal

On September 23, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Full Alliance International Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Holdco”), Yongye International Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Parent”), and Yongye International Merger Sub Limited, a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, at the effective time of the merger, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent and each of the Company’s shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger will be converted into the right to receive US$6.69 in cash without interest, except for (i) shares owned by Holdco, Parent and Merger Sub, including shares of common stock and Preferred Shares to be contributed to Parent by Holdco, Mr. Zishen Wu, Prosper Sino Development Limited and MSPEA, immediately prior to the effective time of the merger pursuant to a contribution agreement, dated as of September 23, 2013, among Parent, Holdco, Mr. Zishen Wu, Prosper Sino Development Limited and MSPEA (except that, with respect to Prosper Sino, only such shares designated as “Prosper Sino rollover shares” in the definitive proxy statement in connection with the special meeting of stockholders will be contributed), and (ii) shares of common stock held by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company ((i) and (ii) collectively, the “Excluded Shares”), which will be cancelled for no consideration and cease to exist as of the effective time of the merger.

 

 

On January 3, 2014, the Company issued a press release announcing that it has established the close of business on January 10, 2014 as the record date for its special meeting of stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at its upcoming special meeting of stockholders.

 

In connection with the special meeting of stockholders to approve the Merger Agreement, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on January 9, 2014, and mailed the definitive proxy statement to its stockholders.

 

The Company’s special meeting of stockholders was held on February 19, 2014, and the stockholders approved the adjournment of the special meeting and the special meeting was adjourned until 2:00 p.m. China time, on March 5, 2014 at Jinshan Economic Development Zone, Hohhot City, Inner Mongolia, the People’s Republic of China. The special meeting was adjourned to provide the Company with additional time to solicit proxies from its stockholders in favor of the proposal to approve the Merger Agreement.

 

Subsequently, the adjourned special meeting of stockholders was held on March 5, 2014, and the proposal to approve the Merger Agreement did not receive approval from holders of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company (other than the Excluded Shares). The Merger Agreement was therefore not approved by the Company’s stockholders. The Merger Agreement has not yet been terminated.

 

Business Outlook

 

According to the Company’s revenue recognition policy, certain distributors’ revenue is being recognized on a cash basis rather than a shipment basis. As a result, the Company is not in a position to predict with specificity what its revenue will be until cash collection is completed. As such, to provide further clarity for investors, Yongye will continue to provide expectations on shipments, a metric that is not impacted by the revenue recognition issue mentioned above.

 

The Company expects total shipments in 2014 to be in the range of $800 million to $850 million, representing a growth of 20.8% to 28.4% over 2013. The growth will be from increase of both our existing and new businesses. The Company also expects that its branded retailer network will be expanded to 36,500 by the end of 2014, which represents a 1.1% increase over the 2013 year-end number of 36,100.
