INGENIC launches HK IPO at HKD102.8, raising HKD3.14 billion
INGENIC, a fabless semiconductor company, launched its Hong Kong IPO today, offering 31.29 million H shares at a maximum price of HKD102.8 each.
The offer attracted 11 cornerstone investors, including Emerald Prime, GF Fund, Perseverance Asset Management, ICBC Wealth Management and Arrow Targe, who committed about USD191.65 million for roughly 14.62 million shares, representing 46.74 percent of the offering, the company said in its listing document.
The Hong Kong public tranche accounts for about 10 percent of the offering, with the international placing covering the remaining 90 percent. Each board lot of 100 shares requires an entry fee of about HKD10,383.68. At the maximum offer price, net proceeds are expected to reach about HKD3.141 billion. The offer period runs from today through Thursday, with listing scheduled for next Tuesday on the Main Board. Guotai Haitong acts as sole sponsor.
The dual listing follows INGENIC's Shenzhen-listed A-shares (300223.SZ), which rose 5.09 percent to add HKD7.31. The company did not disclose the use of proceeds breakdown or oversubscription figures.
INGENIC designs application processors and related semiconductor products, operating a fabless model that outsources manufacturing to foundry partners. The Hong Kong listing provides a second listing venue alongside its Shenzhen A-share presence, giving the company access to international capital markets. The cornerstone tranche's 46.74 percent coverage anchors the offering, with the committed USD191.65 million representing a substantial portion of the deal. The participation of institutional investors including ICBC Wealth Management and GF Fund reflects interest from both mainland and international capital sources.
The pricing gives INGENIC a Hong Kong listing alongside its existing A-share presence. First-day trading on Tuesday will test institutional demand for the fabless chip designer, with the final offer price and allocation expected after the offer closes on Thursday. Investors will watch whether the stock sustains its A-share momentum, which has seen the Shenzhen-listed shares gain 5.09 percent.
