The company, which first filed in December 2025 and refiled in June 2026, reported 2025 revenue of RMB 65.591 billion, down 4.55% year on year, and net profit of RMB 2.581 billion, down 53.49%. It shipped 169 million phones in 2025, holding a 12.3% global market share, and leads Africa with a 40% smartphone share, plus over 40% in Pakistan and 35% in Bangladesh. Proceeds will fund AI, R&D, brand expansion, and IoT.
Transsion Holdings recently received a filing notice from the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) regarding the overseas listing and issuance of Shenzhen Transsion Holdings Co. , Ltd. , obtaining the filing for its Hong Kong listing. According to the filing notice, the company plans to issue no more than 132 million overseas-listed ordinary shares and list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The company stated that the overseas issuance and listing still require approvals from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and other relevant regulators and exchanges, and the matter remains subject to uncertainty.
Previously, Transsion first submitted its prospectus to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on December 2, 2025. As it did not pass the hearing within six months of filing, the prospectus automatically lapsed. On June 18, 2026, the company updated its prospectus for the Hong Kong listing. According to the prospectus, Transsion was founded in 2006, is headquartered in Shenzhen, and primarily sells smartphones under the TECNO, itel, and Infinix brands. Starting from the African market, it has expanded to emerging markets including South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America.
In 2025, the company's total mobile phone shipments reached 169 million units, giving it a 12.3% share of the global mobile phone market, ranking third worldwide. In the African market, its smartphone market share reached 40%, firmly ranking first. In South Asia, its smartphone market share exceeded 40% in Pakistan and reached 35.0% in Bangladesh, both ranking first. Financially, Transsion's 2025 revenue was RMB 65.591 billion, down 4.55% year on year, and net profit was RMB 2.581 billion, down 53.49%.
The proceeds from this H-share offering will be primarily used for AI and terminal technology research and development, global brand and channel expansion, and the construction of mobile internet and Internet of Things ecosystems. The remaining funds will be used to supplement daily operations and general corporate expenses.
