On July 13, Biren Technology declined 3.16% in regular trading, trading at HK$43.62/share, with turnover of HK$606 million. The stock has effectively broken below the HK$46.2/share placement price, signaling continued downside pressure.

The company completed a placement of 153 million new H shares on July 8 at HK$46.2 per share, raising net proceeds of approximately HK$7.038 billion. The placement represented a discount of roughly 9.94% to the last trading day price and resulted in share capital dilution of approximately 6.27%. While the stock initially found support near the placement price and staged a brief rebound, it has since reversed course and decisively broken below this key level, indicating that the dilution effect and selling pressure from the concurrent cornerstone investor lock-up expiry period continue to weigh on sentiment.

Within the Semiconductors sector, weakness is broad-based. Among peers, SMIC fell 0.63%, Hua Hong fell 6.42%, GigaDevice fell 10.84%, Iluvatar CoreX fell 4.31%, and Montage Technology fell 4.91%.
