Hong Kong, November 27, 2012 -- Moody's Investors Service says that Glorious Property Holdings Limited's B3 corporate family rating and the Caa1 senior unsecured debt rating of its USD notes are unaffected by the resignation of its chairman from its board.

The ratings outlook remains negative.

"We do not believe that the stepping-down of Mr. Zhang Zhi Rong, the chairman of the board, will have a material negative impact on the company's day-to-day operations. This is because the existing management team has a track record in managing the company through the recent down-cycle", says Franco Leung, a Moody's Assistant Vice President and Analyst.

Mr. Cheng Li Xiong, the executive vice chairman of the board and chief executive officer of the company, has been appointed as the chairman of the board in place of Mr. Zhang.

Moody's considers that the management team has demonstrated a reasonable track record in managing the company's operations and refinancing activities.

Contracted sales amounted to RMB9.8 billion in January-October 2012, or 75% of its full-year 2012 target of RMB13 billion. While this figure is slightly below Moody's expectations, the company has demonstrated improved sales execution since April, particularly in regions affected by purchase restrictions.

"It is further unlikely that the change of control clause will be triggered for a breach of the bond covenants in the near term as the chairman has indicated his willingness to hold his current shareholdings," adds Leung, who is also the lead analyst of Glorious Property.

As of 27 November 2012, Mr. Zhang's shareholding of the company amounted to around 68.4%.

The principal methodology used in rating Glorious was the Global Homebuilding Industry Methodology published in March 2009. Please see the Credit Policy page on www.moodys.com for a copy of this methodology.
