(Note: ZKH Group Limited priced its IPO at $15.50 – the low end of its $15.50-to-$17.50 price range – on 4.0 million American Depositary Shares (ADS) – the number in the prospectus – to raise $62.0 million on Dec. 14, 2023. Background: ZKH Group Limited filed an F-1/A dated Dec. 8, 2023, in which it disclosed terms for its IPO: 4.0 million American Depositary Shares (ADS) at a price range of $15.50 to $17.50 to raise $66.0 million. Each ADS represents 35 Class A ordinary shares, the prospectus says. Background: ZKH Group Limited filed an F-1/A dated Nov. 27, 2023, in which it named Deutsche Bank as its “lead left” joint book-runner to replace Goldman Sachs and added CICC as a joint book-runner to work with Deutsche Bank and China Renaissance. In that Nov. 27, 2023, filing with the SEC, ZKH Group Limited also updated its financial statements for the period through Sept. 30, 2023. ZKH Group Limited filed its F-1 for its U.S. IPO of American Depositary Shares (ADS) – no terms disclosed – on March 7, 2023. The $100.0 million placeholder figure applies, but some IPO professionals believe that this IPO may raise up to $200 million. ZKH Group Limited filed confidential IPO documents with the SEC on March 30, 2022.)
