NEW YORK, June 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Ideanomics (NASDAQ: IDEX) ("Ideanomics" or the "Company") would like to announce that it intends to respond with all means possible to the apparently coordinated attack on the company's credibility in order to seek financial gain from a drop in the company's share price.

The Company refutes entirely the claims that it has less than three months operating cash. On the contrary, the Company has sufficient cash to maintain its current operations for at least 12 months.

We believe that the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle (H2FCV) and battery electric vehicle (BEV) industries and New Energy Vehicle ecosystem have a tremendous future, and this is evidenced by all of our recent orders and fulfilments. Our sales center in Qingdao, along with our partners (including the City of Qingdao, a 10% owner of our subsidiary in Qingdao), has a free rental agreement backed by local government for up to 15 years and for up to 100k square meters.

We urge our shareholders to read our filings with SEC before making any investment decisions. More details about our press releases, earnings and SEC filings can be found at: https://investors.ideanomics.com/.
