Robosense Technology (SEHK:2498) Unveils New LiDAR And Robotics Products As Fair Value Debate Builds

Simply Wall St · 2d ago

Robosense Technology’s interim update and robotics push

Robosense Technology (SEHK:2498) has released its 2026 interim update, pairing LiDAR platform progress with a clear push into broader robotics hardware. The stock move now sits alongside a detailed product and commercialization roadmap.

The interim update lands after a weak run for Robosense Technology’s shares, with the 30-day share price return down 24.75% and the year-to-date share price return down 51.98%, while the 1-year total shareholder return has declined 55.78%. The recent 1-day and 7-day gains hint at traders reassessing growth prospects and risk around the new robotics and LiDAR roadmap.

Bulls point to Robosense Technology’s new chips and robotics push, while bears focus on losses and a share price slide. Which story does the current valuation actually support?

Most Popular Narrative: 60.2% Undervalued

Robosense Technology’s most followed valuation story anchors on a fair value of about HK$45.00 against a last close of HK$17.91, putting the focus squarely on whether its LiDAR and robotics expansion can support that gap.

The company's rapid increase in sales of LiDAR products for robotics and non-automotive applications (up 185% in revenue and more than 5x in units sold year-over-year), along with significant gross margin improvement in this segment (from 26.1% to 45%), points to successful expansion into new growth markets like robotics and smart cities, positioning Robosense to benefit from the wider adoption of intelligent infrastructure and automation, a trend likely to drive long-term revenue and margin growth.

Result: Fair Value of HK$45.00 (UNDERVALUED)

Still, the Robosense Technology story can be knocked off course if ADAS demand keeps shrinking, with concentrated customers pulling back further, or if LiDAR pricing pressure keeps eroding project economics.

Another view on Robosense Technology’s valuation

The story shifts once the focus moves from fair value estimates to what Robosense Technology is actually trading on today. The stock carries a P/S ratio of 3.3x. That is much higher than the Hong Kong Electronic industry average of 0.6x and also above its own fair ratio of 1.6x, even though it sits below a 7.9x peer average. For anyone weighing the earlier undervalued narrative, the question is whether this current sales multiple points to a rerating risk before any growth thesis plays out.
