Dividend rights

 

No dividend shall be paid on any other class or series of shares of the Company unless and until a dividend in like amount is first paid in full on the Preferred Shares.

 

Liquidation rights

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or sale of shares, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction involving the Company in which its shareholders do not retain a majority of the voting power in the surviving entity, or a sale of all or substantially all the Company’s assets (the “Liquidation Event), prior to and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the ordinary shareholders, the preferred shareholders and shall be entitled to receive for each outstanding preferred shares held, an amount equal to 100% of the preferred share purchase price, plus all declared but unpaid dividend.

Accounting for the Preferred Shares

 

The Company has classified the Preferred Shares in the mezzanine equity of the consolidated balance sheets as they are contingently redeemable at the option of the holders. In addition, the Company records accretion to the redemption value from the issuance dates to the earliest redemption dates. The accretions are recorded against retained earnings, or in the absence of retained earnings, by charges against additional paid-in capital. Once additional paid-in capital has been exhausted, additional charges are recorded by increasing the accumulated deficit. Each issuance of the Preferred Shares is recognized at the respective issue price at the date of issuance net of issuance costs.

 

The Company has determined that there was no beneficial conversion feature attributable to all preferred shares because the initial effective conversion prices of these preferred shares were higher than the fair value of the Company's common shares determined by the Company taking into account independent valuations.

 

Upon the completion of the Company’s IPO in November 2018, all of the issued and outstanding pre-IPO Preferred Shares were automatically converted and redesignated into Class A ordinary shares based on the conversion rate stipulated in their Share Purchase Agreements.

 

The Company’s preferred shares activities for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2017 and 2018 are summarized below:
