Each board lot comprises 500 shares, making the entry fee approximately HKD4,040.35. The offer period runs from June 30 to July 6, with listing expected on July 9.
The IPO gives QIYUNSHAN FOOD a market valuation that will be tested by institutional demand during the bookbuilding process. The company, a producer of dried fruit snacks, is seeking to tap Hong Kong's equity capital markets amid a gradual recovery in new listings.
The pricing implies a valuation that investors will compare against listed consumer food peers in Hong Kong and mainland China. First-day trading on July 9 will serve as the key gauge of market appetite for the offering.
