BEIJING, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — KANZHUN LIMITED (“BOSS Zhipin” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: BZ; HKEX: 2076), a leading online recruitment platform in China, today announced the launch of its share offer of 30,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, comprising a Hong Kong public offering of initially 3,000,000 Class A ordinary shares (the “Hong Kong Public Offering”) and an international offering of initially 27,000,000 Class A ordinary shares (the “International Offering”, together with the Hong Kong Public Offering, the “Share Offer”), subject to reallocation and offer size adjustment.
The initial offer shares available for the Hong Kong Public Offering and the International Offering are subject to reallocation (including clawback). Additionally, the Company has an offer size adjustment option to increase the number of offer shares based on market demand up to an aggregate of 4,500,000 additional Class A ordinary shares, representing 15% of the initial offer shares. The offer size adjustment option may be exercised on or before the Price Determination Date (defined below).
The offer price for the Hong Kong Public Offering (the “Hong Kong Offer Price”) will be no more than HK$78.00 per Class A ordinary share (the “maximum Hong Kong Offer Price”).

The Company will set the International Offer Price on or before July 2, 2025, Hong Kong time (the “Price Determination Date”), by taking into consideration, among other factors, the closing price of the ADSs on Nasdaq on the last trading day on or before the Price Determination Date. The final Hong Kong Offer Price will also be set on the Price Determination Date at the lower of the final International Offer Price and the maximum Hong Kong Offer Price.
The Share Offer is intended to further enhance the Company’s financial flexibility, broaden its shareholder base, improve stock liquidity, and support its healthy and sustainable development. The net proceeds from the Share Offer will be used in investment in technology and related infrastructure, the development of new business initiatives, strategic acquisitions or investment opportunities and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Goldman Sachs (Asia) L.L.C. and Morgan Stanley Asia Limited (in alphabetical order) act as the overall coordinators for the Share Offer.
