Core Viewpoint - The Haier Group is expanding its capital footprint with the recent IPO applications of its subsidiaries, Kaos and Haier New Energy, aiming to increase the number of listed companies under its umbrella to ten if both IPOs are successful [1][12]. Group 1: Company Performance - Kaos has shown steady performance improvement, with revenues of approximately RMB 4.994 billion in 2023 and RMB 5.069 billion in 2024, and a projected net profit turnaround from a loss of RMB 82.72 million in 2023 to a profit of RMB 65.14 million in 2024 [4]. - For the first three quarters of 2025, Kaos reported revenues of about RMB 4.421 billion, up from RMB 3.635 billion in the same period the previous year, with a corresponding profit of approximately RMB 176 million, significantly higher than the RMB 35.71 million from the previous year [4]. Group 2: Dependency on Haier Group - Haier Group is the largest customer of Kaos, contributing 57.7% of its revenue in the first three quarters of 2025, with sales to Haier amounting to RMB 25.49 billion [6]. - The sales to the top five customers accounted for approximately 69.7% of Kaos's revenue in the same period, indicating a high dependency on a limited customer base [6]. Group 3: Market Position and Strategy - Kaos is positioned as a leading provider of industrial data intelligence solutions in China, ranking first in the market based on projected revenue for 2024 [3]. - The decision to pursue a listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange instead of the Sci-Tech Innovation Board is seen as a strategic move to avoid stringent regulatory pressures associated with the latter [3][4]. Group 4: Capital Expansion - The Haier Group has established a capital structure that spans both A-share and H-share markets, currently comprising eight listed companies with a total market value exceeding RMB 330 billion [9]. - If Kaos and Haier New Energy successfully complete their IPOs, the number of listed companies under Haier Group will increase to ten, further solidifying its market presence [12].
