Chinese artificial intelligence start-up SenseTime Group will withdraw its US$767 million Hong Kong initial public offering on Monday and update its prospectus after being placed on a U.S. investment blacklist, two sources told Reuters.
The sources, who have direct knowledge of the situation but could not be named as the information was not yet public, said an official announcement would be made to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange shortly. SenseTime, which was placed on a U.S. investment blacklist on Friday by the Biden Administration, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Three sources confirmed SenseTime's decision to pull the IPO in its current form, while two of those people added the company would update the risk factors in its prospectus with the aim of relaunching the IPO process.
