出品：新浪财经上市公司研究院 作者：光心 2025年11月21日，中联发展控股（00264.HK）发布公告，称拟作价45亿港元至90亿港元收购国内功率半导体企业龙腾半导体最多100%的股权。 此次交易是典型的RTO（Reverse Takeover，反向收购）交易，即未上市企业通过将资产注入而反向控制一家上市公司，本质上是龙腾半导体对中联发展控 股这一"壳资源"的收购。 这不是龙腾半导体第一次进军资本市场，早在2021年6月，其便对科创板发起过冲刺。但在经历两轮问询之后，其于2021年12月主动撤回了上市申请。当时 市场普遍揣测，其IPO失败的主要原因是规模太小、财务数据过于羸弱。 在中联发展控股发布该公告前，公司股价便已抢跑。11月18日到11月24日，14个交易日内，公司股价由2.05港元增长至2.53港元，增幅23%。此后公司股价 持续震荡，12月5日收盘价为2.60港元。 对于一家皮革公司豪掷几十亿入局半导体的叙事，这样的市场反应好像略显平淡。而其背后，或许是市场对于龙腾半导体基本面的担忧。 早年七成毛利来自军品业务 军工电子震荡期再度转亏 龙腾半导体成立于2009年7月，主营业务为以功率MOSFET ...
