DeepSeek AI excitement spills over to Hong Kong’s IPO market

DeepSeek AI excitement spills over to Hong Kong’s IPO market
SHARE

Chinese companies are seizing the opportunity to go public in Hong Kong as global investors show interest in the region once again. This surge in excitement comes after the groundbreaking artificial intelligence breakthrough by DeepSeek in late January. Despite lingering U.S. trade tensions, the IPO market in Hong Kong is thriving, providing early investors in startups with a lucrative exit strategy.

George Chan, global IPO leader at EY, highlighted the cooperation between IPO candidates, investors, and regulators as a key factor in cultivating a healthy Hong Kong IPO market. The return of long-term funds from the U.S. reflects growing investor confidence in China, further bolstered by the positive post-IPO performance of recent listings.

One notable IPO was the highly oversubscribed listing of Chinese bubble tea giant Mixue on March 3. Additionally, Chinese battery giant Contemporary Amperex Technology (CATL) filed for what could potentially be Hong Kong’s largest IPO since 2021. This wave of IPO activity indicates a promising outlook for the Hong Kong market.

The news of DeepSeek’s AI breakthrough, which positioned it as a rival to OpenAI’s ChatGPT at a lower cost, had a significant impact on global tech stocks and triggered a rally in China. President Xi Jinping’s meeting with tech entrepreneurs in February and Beijing’s signal of increased support for the private sector further contributed to the positive sentiment in the market.

According to KPMG, six IPOs in Hong Kong raised over 1 billion Hong Kong dollars in the first quarter, a substantial increase from the previous year. In total, Hong Kong saw 15 IPOs in the first quarter, raising 17.7 billion HKD, marking the best start to a year since 2021.

While the market is showing signs of recovery, there is still a long way to go to reach pre-pandemic levels. The Hong Kong stock exchange has made adjustments to its listing rules to support companies already listed in mainland China to offer shares in Hong Kong. Companies like Hengrui Pharmaceuticals, Mabwell, Haitian Flavoring and Food, Fortior Tech, and Sanhua Intelligent Controls are actively seeking Hong Kong listings, indicating a growing interest in the region.

Despite the positive developments, challenges remain. The fallout from Didi’s IPO in the U.S. in 2021 prompted regulators in both countries to scrutinize Chinese companies listing in foreign markets. The Trump administration’s “America First Investment Policy” could further complicate the situation, with potential increased scrutiny on U.S. capital flowing to China.

While the current indicators are positive, uncertainties loom, and a single incident could reverse the trend. EY’s Chan emphasized the importance of consistency in market trends, suggesting that sustained positive momentum could lead to a successful year ahead for the Hong Kong IPO market.
