SenseTime Group  / Equity Capital Markets

<ul>
<li>SenseTime raised HK$5,552m at HK$3.85 per share, at the lower end of the IPO price range of HK$3.85-3.99 at a market cap and post-money EV of HK$128.1bn and HK$112.4bn respectively.</li>
<li>SenseTime delayed its IPO after it was included in a US investment blacklist and relaunched the IPO last week without the US investors and some additional disclosures to risk factors.</li>
<li>The HK offering was oversubscribed by 5.18x and the international offering by only 1.5x. We think the exclusion of US investors from the IPO led to poor international subscription.</li>
