Li Ning Caught In The Middle
On May 24, Li Ning announced the resignations of three senior executives – COO Guo Jianxin, Chief Marketing Officer Fang Shiwei, and Director of E-commerce Lin Li. A source blamed the exodus on the failed campaign.
That same day, Li Ning's Hong Kong-listed shares declined 8.4 percent. The stock has continued losing ground ever since, falling to HK$ 13.38 on June 9, far below the past year's peak of HK$ 29.35. The company's market capitalization has declined more than HK$ 16.8 billion
