Davis Polk, Cleary lead on Horizon Robotics’ $696 mln HK IPO
Davis Polk & Wardwell and King & Wood Mallesons are advising Chinese autonomous driving firm Horizon Robotics on its proposed $696 million Hong Kong initial public offering.
Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton and Jingtian & Gongcheng are serving as legal advisers to the joint sponsors and underwriters.
Reuters reported that the IPO is the largest in Hong Kong in 2024, eclipsing China Resources Beverage’s planned $650 million offering.
It added that the city's listings market is showing signs of renewed activity after a nearly two-year slump, during which Hong Kong's IPO volumes had fallen to multi-year lows as Chinese regulators held back approvals from mainland companies looking to raise capital offshore.
