EWPT (300115.SZ), a precision components maker with an A-share market capitalization over RMB49 billion, has filed an application to list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The company has appointed CICC as the sole sponsor for the offering.
The filing confirms the company's move to seek a dual listing, expanding its access to international investors. Details regarding the offering size, price, and timeline were not yet disclosed in the initial application.
According to the filing, EWPT's revenue for the last fiscal year increased 11 percent year-over-year to RMB18.819 billion. However, profit for the same period declined 20.3 percent to RMB670 million.
EWPT is the world's fifth-largest manufacturer of precision components for smart terminals and electronic products by revenue. Its product portfolio includes ultra-precision components for a range of applications, including smart terminals, new energy batteries, and humanoid robots.
The Hong Kong listing would provide EWPT with a new channel for capital amid a decline in profitability. Investors will be watching for details on the offering size and pricing to gauge institutional demand for the precision manufacturer.
