On June 8, Impro Precision (01286.HK) declined 6.63% in regular trading, trading at HK$8.31/share, with trading volume of HK$51.58 million. The stock has now fallen well below its recent placement price of HK$9.10 per share.
The decline appears to reflect continued selling pressure following the company's completion of a top-up placement of 60 million new shares at HK$9.10 each on June 3, representing a 13.58% discount to the pre-deal close. The placement raised net proceeds of approximately HK$539 million, intended for capacity expansion at its Mexico and China factories, new process development, debt repayment, and working capital. The 60 million shares represent 3.18% of previously issued capital, diluting existing shareholders. An earlier report noted the stock had already dropped over 5% on the day the placement completed, with the share price under pressure since hitting a high of HK$11.80 in mid-May.
Despite Jefferies maintaining a Buy rating with a raised target price of HK$14.20, the stock continues to face near-term technical pressure from the dilutive fundraising and broader concerns over the company's Mexico factory losses during its ramp-up phase.
