Summary
The planned US listing could value Roze at up to $100bn, and the venture likely includes assets from ABB’s robotics division, which SoftBank agreed to buy for $5.4bn.
The confidential filing advances plans previously reported for a second-half 2026 flotation of Roze, which SoftBank is building around AI-driven robotics and automation, including data-centre construction.
A successful debut could become a key valuation benchmark for robotics, a sector with few pure-play public options and wide disagreement over how quickly humanoid and industrial robots can generate revenue.
