Estimate

Current Assessment

Xiaomi's own annual report is the main evidence. It shows Lin Bin as a co-founder and vice chairman and lists roughly 2.33 billion Xiaomi shares in which he is directly or deemed interested through controlled entities, trust structures, and a family foundation. Forbes-linked billionaire reporting placed him near $18.1 billion in 2025, which fits the scale of that Xiaomi position. A 2026 Associated Press report says he agreed to buy a 1% stake in the Miami Dolphins-related sports assets at a $12.5 billion valuation, but that is best read as a portfolio investment rather than extra wealth on top of his Xiaomi stake.

Key caveats

  • The estimate is sensitive to Xiaomi's share price and exchange rates.
  • The public record does not fully show later share transfers, pledges, taxes, or personal liabilities.
  • Trust and foundation holdings may not be equivalent to unrestricted personal ownership.

Evidence gaps

  • Current access-date stock quote
  • Updated beneficial-ownership filings after the 2024 annual report
  • Private debt, real estate, and non-Xiaomi investment details

Uncertainty Drivers

  • No citable July 1, 2026 live Xiaomi share price was retrieved in this run.
  • The latest full beneficial-ownership ledger found was as of December 31, 2024, with disclosed conversions through March 2025; later sales, pledges, or transfers may exist.
  • SFO deemed interests include trusts and a family foundation; economic benefit may not equal simple personal ownership.
  • Tax exposure, margin loans, pledges, and personal liabilities are not publicly resolved.
  • The Miami Dolphins investment funding structure is not disclosed.
