On June 15, the Hong Kong-based robotics company XianGong Intelligent (06106.HK) commenced its initial public offering (IPO) with a share price set at HKD 101.60 for a minimum lot of 50 shares, valuing the company at HKD 11.227 billion. XianGong first submitted its IPO prospectus to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in May 2025, but after a six-month lapse, it resubmitted in November, finally passing the hearing in June. The company, which specializes in robotic controllers, is expected to officially list on June 24, with China International Capital Corporation acting as the sole sponsor and CMB International as the overall coordinator.
Despite being the global leader in robotic controllers, XianGong faces challenges, including a projected net loss of HKD 47.6 million in 2025, despite a narrowing loss trend. The company's revenue is primarily driven by its robots, which contribute 67.9% of income but have a lower profit margin compared to its controllers and software. XianGong has raised approximately HKD 2.83 billion through four rounds of financing prior to the IPO, with significant investments from firms like ProLogis and IDG.
Valued at a price-to-sales ratio of 22, XianGong's IPO is the most expensive among its peers, relying heavily on maintaining high growth and profit margins. The company's founder, Zhao Yue, a Zhejiang University graduate and two-time RoboCup champion, leads a team with a strong academic background in robotics. As XianGong prepares for its market debut, its future performance will be closely monitored amid ongoing financial challenges.
