On Monday, Instacart filed to set a price range of $26 to $28 for its upcoming initial public offering (IPO). A total of 22 million shares will be distributed consisting of 14.1 million newly-issued shares from the organization and 7.9 million from existing stockholders. If the higher end of the proposed pricing is used, the company will likely gain a sum of around $616 million.
Instacart has revealed that its IPO could net up to $616 million at a potential valuation of $7.7-7.8 billion. It is offering 22 million shares at a price range of $26-28 with 14.1 million of them newly issued and 7.9 million from selling stockholders. PepsiCo is entering as an investor in a concurrent private placement with Goldman Sachs acting as an agent and receiving 1.5% of the purchase price. Norges Bank Investment Management has also expressed an interest in investing up to $400 million in the offering, though the underwriters have the discretion to adjust the shares sold to the cornerstone investors.
Instacart, one of the largest U.S. online grocery delivery services, is set to be among the most noteworthy public offerings of the year. It goes up against rivals such as Amazon, DoorDash, GoPuff and Grubhub. The company's recently revealed IPO document arrives as Arm, a UK-based chip designing firm, is set to make a spectacular debut that could potentially value it at $52 billion. Last week, Arm said the New York IPO might rake in up to $4.87 billion. After a period of 12 months with delayed stock market listings due to rising interest rates and inflation, these debuts will put the IPO market to the test. Investors are looking forward to a successful round of public offerings — however, the outcomes will depend largely on the circumstances of the market when these companies actually partake in the listings.
