Aequitas 2025 Asia IPO Pipeline – Hong Kong
- In this note, we will take a look at the Asia Pacific IPO pipeline for 2025, starting with Hong Kong.
- This list has been compiled on a best effort basis from tracking the company filings and through various other sources.
- The deals you see in this note are only a part of our full IPO pipeline tracker. Feel free to drop us a message for additional information on these IPOs.
Brigade Hotel Ventures Ltd Pre-IPO – Strong Rebound from Covid but with High Concentration
- Brigade Hotel Ventures Ltd (BHV IN) is an owner and developer of hotels in India, focusing primarily on South India, plans to raise about US$107m through its upcoming India IPO.
- It has a current portfolio of 9 operating hotels, of which, 4, 3 and 2 are operated under Accor, InterContinental, Marriott brands.
- BHVL intends to use the IPO proceeds primarily to repay debt of INR 4.8bn and to purchase land from the promoter for further expansion.
Pre IPO X.J. Electrics (Hu Bei) – ODM/OEM Model Is Hard to Deliver High Margins and Growth Prospects
- X.J. ELECTRICS not only relies on export revenue, but also on ODM/OEM models, with a relatively low proportion of independent brands. Such business model would not bring high profit margin.
- X.J. ELECTRICS’ equity is concentrated in PAN YUN/GUANGSHE PAN, but they have plans to reduce holdings.This makes us feel that actual controllers are more inclined to cash out through IPO.
- Valuation of X.J. ELECTRICS should be lower than Carote, as Carote has established branded business and its revenue proportion in different regions is also “healthier” than that of X.J. ELECTRICS.
