Shares of SouFun Holdings Ltd (NYSE: SFUN) were trading lower by nearly 5 percent early Wednesday afternoon after the company provided an update on a pending restructuring initiative.

The China-based real estate Internet portal company announced back in November that it plans on acquiring a controlling stake in Chongqing Wanli New Energy Co, a manufacturer of storage batteries. At the same time, SouFun intends to sell some of Wanli's assets as part part of what the company labeled as a "restructuring" plan.
