Mr. Yong Zhang, Xinyuan's Chairman, stated, "This quarter, we remained profitable despite uncertainties in the macro-economic environment and stringent government restrictions on the Chinese housing market. These headwinds caused contract sales in the third quarter of 2019 to decrease compared to the same quarter in 2018, and total revenue decreased as well. However, we continued to see demand for our offerings and were able to commence pre-sales of two new projects, which contributed 7.3% and 9.1% of total GFA sales and contract sales, respectively."

"We continued to make progress in our overseas projects," added Mr. Zhang. "Our Hudson Garden project hard costs remained on track, and we received the Temporary Certification of Occupancy for Target's ground floor occupancy in early November. We engaged GKV Architects for our RKO project in Flushing to develop new architectural plans, and schematic designs are already complete. Our Madison project in the United Kingdom remains on course for completion in 2020."

Mr. Zhang continued, "In October, our Xinyuan Property Management Company was successfully listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange under the code '01895'. Our Xinyuan Property Management subsidiary has achieved rapid growth in recent years, and we believe that listing on a high-quality platform will benefit all of our shareholders."

"Although uncertainties persist in the market, we are confident in our long-term strategy. We are constantly seeking new opportunities to enhance the Company's overall performance and to further differentiate ourselves in the market with our auxiliary businesses and services. Furthermore, we are also pleased to offer another quarterly dividend payment to our shareholders," concluded Mr. Zhang.
