Baidu to adopt dual-primary listings in Hong Kong and Nasdaq
Baidu has announced its intention to convert its secondary listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange into a primary listing, effective September 1, 2026. This move will result in the company holding dual-primary listings on both the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq Global Select Market.
The conversion will not involve the issuance of new shares or any fundraising activities. Following the transition, the 'S' stock marker will be removed from Baidu's Hong Kong-listed HKD and RMB counters. This strategic shift is expected to potentially allow Baidu to qualify for the Stock Connect program, increasing liquidity and expanding its investor base.
In its recent financial reporting, Baidu noted that AI-related business revenue now accounts for 50% of its total revenue. Specifically, AI cloud infrastructure revenue grew 50% year-on-year, while GPU cloud business revenue saw a significant increase of 283%. Additionally, the company recently expanded its Apollo Go robotaxi service through a partnership with Uber in Dubai.
