Smart home survivors Aqara and Eufy chart divergent paths to profitability

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Two major smart home companies, Aqara (Lumi United Technology) and Eufy (Hikvision), are navigating the industry's challenges with distinct strategies. Aqara, aiming for an IPO on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange with an estimated valuation of $850 million, is shifting away from its reliance on Xiaomi's low-margin ODM business to focus on its premium Aqara brand and integration with Apple's HomeKit ecosystem, achieving significantly higher profit margins. Eufy, despite a solid financial report for 2025 with ¥5.9 billion in revenue and ¥567 million in net profit, faces challenges in brand recognition and product diversification beyond its core security camera business, with a heavy reliance on offline sales channels.
