Shein Posts $99 Million Q1 Loss in Hong Kong IPO Filing
Fast-fashion retailer Shein posted a $99 million loss in the first quarter, with revenue rising 1% to $9.05 billion, in a prospectus for its planned Hong Kong initial public offering. The document, published on July 26, marks the company’s first disclosure of detailed financial results.
The filing omitted specific risk warnings regarding allegations that the retailer’s clothing contains cotton from the Xinjiang region, where U.S. officials and human rights groups say forced labor targets Uyghur minorities. The financial release precedes the company’s expected public listing and highlights shifting profitability.
