DeepSeek's recent engagement of CITIC Securities to prepare a domestic listing on Shanghai's STAR Market marks the clearest step yet toward an IPO, following its June 2026 raise of $7.4 billion at over $50 billion valuation and an ongoing round targeting around $75 billion. The Hangzhou-based AI lab needs substantial capital to expand compute infrastructure, develop large language models, and retain talent amid competition from ByteDance, Xiaomi, and peers like Moonshot, which filed confidentially for a Hong Kong IPO. Chinese AI firms face high costs for chips and data centers, pushing several toward public markets this year. While the company aims to start the formal process by year-end 2026, exact timing, deal size, and listing date remain undetermined, leaving room for regulatory or market shifts to influence outcomes. Traders are watching pre-IPO funding completion and any STAR Market filing milestones as key near-term signals.
