Robo-taxis roll towards Wall Street

WeRide, a leading Chinese autonomous vehicle company, is revving up for a U.S. public debut.

The company has registered 1 billion American Depository Receipts (ADRs) at a maximum price of $0.05, signaling its intent to raise up to $50 million in its initial offering.

Reports suggest WeRide’s ambitions may be even grander, potentially seeking up to $400 million through a combination of its IPO and private placement.

This move comes at a crucial time for the company, which hasn’t raised private funds since 2022 and faces increasing competition in the autonomous vehicle sector.

Navigating financial crossroads

Despite holding permits to operate autonomously in multiple countries and developing a range of autonomous vehicles, WeRide’s financial path remains challenging.

They reported revenue of $20.7 million for the first half of 2024, down from $25.5 million in the same period of 2023, alongside widening losses.

As WeRide prepares to navigate the public markets, it joins other Chinese tech firms testing the waters of U.S. stock exchanges after a period of regulatory uncertainty.
