On October 16, the International Cooperation Department of the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) accepted the filing for Hefei Youibot Robotics Co., Ltd.'s overseas issuance and listing and the "full circulation" of its domestic unlisted shares: the company plans to issue no more than 49,477,800 ordinary shares for overseas listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and a total of 243,804,260 domestic unlisted shares held by 37 shareholders will be converted into overseas listed shares and traded on the HKEX. The company must complete the overseas issuance and listing within 12 months from the date the filing notice is issued, otherwise it must update its filing materials. Youibot Robotics plans to apply for listing as a specialist technology company under Chapter 18C of the HKEX Listing Rules, with CICC as the sole sponsor; it first submitted its application in September 2025 and submitted a second time in March 2026. Gaogong Consulting said that this filing gives the company the prerequisite for an HKEX hearing and that it is expected to become the "first mobile manipulator robot stock"; OFweek Robotics noted that the filing is not equivalent to passing the HKEX hearing and does not mean the listing is a done deal. OFweek Robotics also cited prospectus data saying that the company's 2025 revenue was RMB 340 million and its loss for the year was RMB 384 million, a year-on-year widening of 91.96%, with cumulative losses since inception exceeding RMB 1.4 billion; as of the end of 2025, redemption liabilities were RMB 2.121 billion, accounting for 81.4% of current liabilities, while total assets were only RMB 678 million.
