Chinese enterprise services platform operator Zhubajie attempts third IPO in Hong Kong
中国企业服务平台运营商猪八戒尝试在香港冲刺第三次IPO
Zhubajie, the Chinese e-commerce platform offering enterprise services, has filed an initial public offering (IPO) application with the Hong Kong stock exchange in its latest effort to revive the flotation after two failed attempts.
The company has hired Citic Securities and CCB International as joint sponsors of the deal, according to an exchange filing. Zhubajie plans to use the proceeds from the stock sale to expand its user base, enhance its commercialisation capability, strengthen its research and development, and replenish its working capital, it said.
Zhubajie, whose namesake platform matches transactions between enterprises in need of customised services and specific service providers, might test overseas investors’ appetite.
提供企业服务的中国电子商务平台猪八戒已向香港证券交易所提交IPO申请，这是在两次尝试失败后重启IPO的最新努力。
根据一份交易所备案文件，该公司已聘请中信证券和建银国际作为此次交易的联席保荐人。猪八戒计划利用此次发行股票所得资金扩大用户基础、增强商业化能力、加强研发、补充运营资金。
猪八戒的同名平台为需要定制服务的企业与特定服务提供商之间的交易提供匹配，这可能会考验海外投资者的胃口。
