XUNLONG SCITECH's stock price soared 38.41% in intraday trading on Tuesday, following its highly anticipated debut on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
The significant price surge is attributed to the company's initial public offering, which was met with exceptionally strong investor demand. The Hong Kong public offering portion was oversubscribed by approximately 2,135 times, while the international offering was oversubscribed by about 19.87 times. The stock opened trading at HK$103 per share, a substantial premium to its final offer price of HK$75.50, reflecting the intense market interest.
XUNLONG SCITECH, recognized as the world's largest producer of caviar, raised net proceeds of approximately HK$1.15 billion from the IPO. The company's dominant market position and the involvement of prominent cornerstone investors, including BlackRock Funds and Barings, further bolstered investor confidence, contributing to the volatile and bullish trading activity on its first day.
