Fast fashion giant Shein has been valued at up to $27 billion for its planned Hong Kong initial public offering, according to the source content.
That valuation is about 70% lower than the company’s $100 billion peak, as Shein seeks to raise HK$13.86 billion through the listing. The company is facing slower growth, higher costs, and changes in the market, underscoring the tougher backdrop for a consumer internet company that has relied on rapid scale-up.
Shein has previously been working toward a Hong Kong listing after its London IPO plan stalled. The company also secured approval from Chinese authorities for the Hong Kong share sale in a third attempt to go public, according to CNBC-TV18 coverage. The latest move suggests the listing process remains a key step for Shein as it navigates public-market scrutiny and a shifting regulatory path.
