Shein Discloses Financials Ahead of Hong Kong IPO Amid Revenue Growth and Quarterly Loss
Shein has received approval from China's Securities Regulatory Commission for its Hong Kong IPO, following unsuccessful attempts in New York and London. The company's 2025 revenue rose 8% to $41.8 billion, but net income fell nearly 39% to $2.064 billion. In Q1 2026, Shein reported a net loss of $99 million, impacted by the U.S. removal of the duty-free 'de minimis' policy, which increased costs and affected sales. The draft prospectus sets the stage for investor roadshows and bookbuilding ahead of a planned listing in late August or September.
