On September 28, LIGENT fell 5.7% in regular trading, trading at 34.38 HKD/share, with turnover of approximately HK$165 million. The newly listed optical communication company retreated toward its IPO price of 32.96 HKD after reaching an all-time high of 39.86 HKD earlier in the week.
The decline came amid broad weakness across the Electronic Components sector. Among peers, KB Laminates fell 6.14%, Kingboard Holdings dropped 6.18%, VGT slid 7.31%, Delton declined 6.11%, and Sunny Optical lost 3.54%, reflecting widespread sector-level selling pressure rather than a company-specific catalyst.
LIGENT listed on the HKEX on September 22, raising approximately HK$5.45 billion in net proceeds. The company is a leading optical communication and optical connectivity solutions provider, ranking fifth globally and third in China among professional optical transceiver makers by revenue. Its data-center optical transceiver segment recorded revenue of RMB 3.745 billion, up 36.6% year-over-year, driven by AI and cloud computing demand. The company has achieved mass production of 800G and 1.6T optical modules and is advancing 3.2T product development.
