CIG placed 15.6 million new H shares at HKD126.66 each, raising net proceeds of HKD1.97 billion for strategic stockpiling and global expansion.
The company will use the funds to stockpile core components, supplement working capital and accelerate its globalization strategy, according to the placement announcement. The offering represents a 8.88% discount to the previous trading day's close of HKD139.
The new shares account for about 16.84% of the enlarged H share capital and 4.24% of the total issued share capital. CIG trades on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange under the ticker 06166.HK.
The placement dilutes existing shareholders by 4.24% on a total issued capital basis, but the HKD1.97 billion infusion gives the company financial flexibility to secure supply of core components amid rising demand in the optical transceiver industry. Morgan Stanley recently said Huawei's "Tao's Law" supports exponential growth in the AI optical transceiver sector, a key end-market for CIG's products. Investors will watch for updates on how the company deploys the capital toward its globalization strategy in coming quarters.
