As reported by Bloomberg, DeepSeek has already kicked off its preparations for an Initial Public Offering (IPO), with intentions to go public on the mainland stock market. There is a possibility that the application could be filed as soon as this year, aiming to finalize the listing process by 2027. At present, DeepSeek is working hand in hand with an accounting firm, striving to finalize its financial reports by the end of December in order to comply with the filing requirements for the IPO. Nevertheless, discussions are still in progress, and both the IPO timeline and financing strategies might be subject to adjustments, depending on market conditions and the company's performance.
