Shein’s 3-year IPO timeline raises doubts about its valuation

Investors are weighing whether a $40 billion-plus valuation is sustainable as the company’s growth engine slows.

CNBC World reports that Shein’s three-year route to an IPO has prompted investors to question whether Beijing’s approval can support a $40 billion-plus valuation for the fast-fashion retailer.

The outlet said the skepticism centers on Shein’s slowing growth, which has made it harder for investors to justify the valuation implied by the company’s planned public offering.

The story highlights that investor scrutiny is increasing as the IPO timeline stretches and the company’s momentum comes under pressure.
