Hong Kong, October 9, 2025
News Summary
Sany Heavy Industry is preparing a Hong Kong share sale that could raise about US$1.5 billion through a dual listing while its 2024 net profit rose 32% to 6.1 billion yuan. The Beijing-based construction-equipment maker may attend a Hong Kong exchange hearing soon and begin investor outreach shortly. Citic Securities and China International Capital Corp. are coordinating the offering. Proceeds are earmarked to expand sales and service networks across Asia, South America and Africa as overseas revenue already accounts for roughly two-thirds of sales. Final deal size and timing remain subject to regulatory approvals and market conditions.
Sany Heavy Industry Moves Toward Hong Kong Dual Listing to Raise Up to $1.5 Billion
Sany Heavy Industry Co. is preparing to list shares in Hong Kong in a move that could raise about US$1.5 billion. Company officials are expected to start gauging investor interest as soon as next week, and a listing hearing with the Hong Kong stock exchange could take place this week. The company’s shares already trade in Shanghai, and a Hong Kong listing could happen within the coming weeks, though the final deal size and timing remain subject to change.
Why the move matters
The planned Hong Kong offering would be one of the city’s larger listings this year and could help shape overall deal flow. Independent market analysis suggests that total IPO proceeds in Hong Kong could top US$26 billion next year, making Sany’s listing an important barometer for investor appetite in the region.
Financial position and recent performance
Sany reported a profit of about 6.1 billion yuan in 2024, a rise of 32% from the prior year. Overseas revenue in 2024 grew about 12% to 48.51 billion yuan, representing nearly 65% of the company’s total sales. At the same time, domestic sales fell by more than 3% in 2024, reflecting weaker demand in the local construction market.
Use of proceeds and expansion plans
Proceeds from the proposed Hong Kong IPO would support global expansion and the build-out of international sales networks. Company leaders aim to more than double overseas revenue to 100 billion yuan (about US$14 billion) within the next few years, and plan to expand marketing and sales channels in Asia, South America and Africa. Company statements stress that globalisation efforts will focus on people and localised marketing, not only factory building.
Market footprint and product lines
The firm sells equipment to contractors, construction companies, mining operators and infrastructure developers. Product lines include concrete transport, excavation, lifting, road construction and pile-driving machinery. According to trade data, the company was the country’s largest exporter of excavators and concrete mixers in the past year. The company operates production sites in multiple regions including the US, Europe, India, Brazil and Germany, and sells to around 180 countries and regions.
Risk, strategy and geopolitics
The company acknowledges a mixed global backdrop. While broader tensions between major economies remain a factor, company planning does not treat those tensions as the main driver of strategy. About 70% of foreign sales are in the Asia-Pacific region and Europe, and supply chains have been structured to limit dependence on inputs from certain foreign suppliers. The company is focusing on markets outside the US, especially developing and emerging economies where demand for its products and acceptance of its brands are stronger.
Deal advisors and regulatory status
Two large securities houses are acting as overall coordinators for the proposed Hong Kong listing. Reports indicate regulatory clearance headlines in some coverage, and company representatives have not provided an immediate response to media requests. A stock exchange representative declined to comment on the matter.
Background and company notes
The company is widely regarded as one of the world’s leading construction machinery makers, commonly ranked in the global top ten. Founding year details vary in public records, with differing sources citing the late 1980s and the mid-1990s as start dates. The planned Hong Kong listing is part of a diversified finance plan developed several years ago and follows an announcement earlier this year that the company intended to pursue the listing.
What’s next
Investors can expect the company to begin investor meetings soon and to proceed toward a listing hearing and potential IPO in the coming weeks. The final size, timing and structure of the deal may still change as the company moves through regulatory and market preparations.
