Just after the Spring Festival holiday in the Year of the Horse, good news came from the “Nanjing Stock Market” in the capital market. On the 24th, the reporter learned that Nanjing Eiston Automation Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Eiston) passed the hearing at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (meaning it met the listing qualification requirements and received a principle approval).
This means that Eiston’s listing in Hong Kong is approaching the bell-ringing moment and is expected to become the first overseas-listed enterprise from Nanjing in the Year of the Horse.

Established in February 2002, Eston mainly engages in the research, development, manufacturing and sales of industrial robots, intelligent manufacturing systems, industrial robot workstations, as well as core components, motion control systems and motion control solutions. Its main products cover two categories: industrial robots and intelligent manufacturing systems, and automation core components and motion control systems. The products are mainly applied in various manufacturing fields such as automobiles, construction machinery and heavy industry, lithium batteries, photovoltaics, metal processing, electronics, etc.
On March 20, 2015, Eston was listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, becoming one of the leading domestic robot mainstream listed companies with completely independent core technologies in China. As of the close of trading on February 24, 2026, Eston’s total market value was 21.148 billion yuan.
In recent years, with the continuous implementation of AI + robot technology, the proportion of domesticization has continued to increase. Eston led the Chinese robot brand to achieve “dual growth” in quantity and quality first.
Public data shows that in 2025, Eston continued the high growth trend of the industrial robot market and ranked first in the domestic robot market for eight consecutive years. Especially in the collaborative robot field, Eston Kouduo achieved a 270% increase in shipment, becoming one of the fastest-growing collaborative robot brands. Eston has formed a manufacturer with self-innovation in full-stack technologies such as automation and core components, industrial robots, collaborative robots, and AI + embodied intelligent robots, as well as full-category layout.
According to the latest data released by MIR Rui Industry in the past period, in 2025, Eston’s robot shipment ranked first in the Chinese market (including foreign brands), with a market share of 10.5% and a year-on-year growth of 25% in total shipments, promoting the domestic share of industrial robots to further increase to over 56%, becoming the core driving force for the continuous growth of the Chinese industrial robot market.
Related industry insiders said that passing the review of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange means that Eston is accelerating towards the bell-topping moment. In the future, relying on the strategic advantages of “A+H” dual financing, it is expected to further promote the construction of its overseas business system and accelerate its layout in overseas markets through the dual drive of capital and customer demand.
According to the prospectus, Eston achieved revenues of 3.881 billion yuan, 4.652 billion yuan and 4.009 billion yuan in 2022, 2023 and 2024 respectively. In the first three quarters of 2025, Eston achieved revenue of 3.804 billion yuan, an increase of 12.86% year-on-year.
