On July 8, Lopal Tech (02465.HK) fell 5.93% in regular trading, trading at HK$11.82/share, with turnover of HK$40.01 million.
On the news front, the decline is primarily attributed to the ongoing dilution effect from the company's recent H-share placement combined with broader lithium battery sector weakness. Lopal Tech completed the placement of 15 million new H shares on June 22 at HK$13.09 per share, representing an approximately 8.91% discount to the then-prevailing market price. The placement expanded total H shares from 120 million to 135 million, resulting in a dilution ratio of 12.5%. The increased share supply has continued to generate short-term selling pressure in the weeks following completion.
Lopal Tech is primarily engaged in the R&D, production, and sale of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode materials and automotive environmental-friendly specialty chemicals, with additional operations in lithium carbonate and raw material processing.
