On October 12, CIG declined 5.77% in regular trading, trading at 98.45 HKD/share with turnover of 2.31 billion HKD. The decline follows market concerns over the company's large-scale financing plan involving discounted share placement and convertible bonds to fund high-speed optical module capacity expansion.

According to recent announcements, CIG plans to raise up to 6.5 billion HKD through a private placement of 18.4 million H shares at 105.16 HKD each, an 8% discount, alongside 3.96 billion yuan in zero-coupon convertible bonds with an initial conversion price of 128.82 HKD, a 12.7% premium. Proceeds are earmarked for photonics production expansion, upstream strategic investments, and working capital.

The combined offerings could increase total share count by approximately 14.8%, diluting A-share holders from 74.84% to 65.20%. Market reaction reflects disagreement over valuation impact and near-term earnings per share dilution, despite the company's positioning in the AI-driven optical communications sector.
