【instrumentNetwork Enterprise News】On the evening of April 7th, Eston (A-share: 002747; H shares: 02715. HK) has announced that its overseas listed foreign shares (H shares) will be officially included in the list of Hong Kong Stock Connect underlying securities under the Shanghai Hong Kong Stock Connect and Shenzhen Hong Kong Stock Connect starting from April 8, 2026. This move means that qualified mainland Chinese investors can directly invest in and trade Estun's H-share shares listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange through their mainland securities accounts starting today.
Estun was founded in 1993 and is headquartered in Nanjing, Jiangsu. It is one of the few companies in China that ownsindustrial robotA high-end equipment manufacturer with core technologies and complete independent intellectual property rights throughout the entire industry chain. As the earliest independent research and development exchange in Chinaservo systemOne of the companies, after more than 30 years of deep cultivation, the company has built a comprehensive business ecosystem covering automation core components, motion control systems, industrial robot bodies, and intelligent manufacturing system solutions.
The company's products and services are widely used in core industrial fields such as automobile manufacturing, 3C electronics, metal processing, new energy, warehousing and logistics, and are a key force in promoting the intelligent and digital transformation of China's manufacturing industry. With strong technological strength and market performance, Estun has become a benchmark enterprise in the domestic industrial robot field and gradually established global market competitiveness.
The successful inclusion of Estun H-shares in the Hong Kong Stock Connect this time is the result of strict review by the Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges in accordance with the "Implementation Measures for the Shanghai Hong Kong Stock Connect Business of the Shanghai Stock Exchange" and the "Implementation Measures for the Shenzhen Hong Kong Stock Connect Business of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange". The announcement shows that this transfer is mainly due to the end of the stable period of Estun H shares in the Hong Kong market, and the corresponding A-share listing has reached the required trading days, meeting the screening criteria for the target under the interconnection mechanism.
In recent years, the quality and market value requirements of the Hong Kong Stock Connect have continued to increase. According to market data, the market value threshold for inclusion in the Hong Kong Stock Connect by the end of 2025 has been dynamically raised to approximately HKD 9.2 billion. Estun's successful selection this time is not only an authoritative recognition of its corporate governance, business scale, and market position, but also marks the dual recognition of its investment value as a leading player in China's intelligent manufacturing industry in the capital markets of mainland China and Hong Kong.
After the expansion of the investor base and the introduction of capital flow into the Hong Kong Stock Connect, Estun H-shares will be directly open to a large group of mainland professional and individual investors. The entry of mainland funds will bring incremental capital and new strategic investors to the company, significantly optimizing the shareholder structure and consolidating the long-term capital foundation.
For a long time, some Hong Kong stocks have lacked trading activity due to limited participants, resulting in a significant increase in H-share liquidity. This "entry" will break down trading barriers and is expected to significantly increase the daily trading volume and turnover rate of Estun H-shares, narrow the liquidity gap with A-shares, and create favorable conditions for the company's valuation repair and value discovery.
As an intelligent manufacturing enterprise listed on both A+H and Hong Kong Stock Connect, this transfer is an important milestone in the development of the company's capital market. This not only strengthens its leading position in the domestic capital market, but also further enhances its exposure and brand influence in the eyes of global investors through interconnectivity mechanisms, paving the way for future internationalization strategies and global financing.
For investors, Estun's entry into the market is an important signal that combines industry prosperity and policy dividends. Currently, with the rapid development of industrial automation, humanoid robots, and intelligent manufacturing industries, Eston, as a leading independent and controllable core technology in China, is on a high growth track. With the continuous inflow of mainland funds and the increase in trading activity, the company's H-shares are expected to experience a dual improvement in valuation and liquidity.
This Hong Kong Stock Connect transfer is a new starting point for Estun's automated capital market journey. In the future, the company will rely on broader capital support, continue to increase core technology research and development, accelerate global layout, create long-term value for shareholders, and help China's intelligent manufacturing industry move towards the high-end of the global value chain.
