Advent-backed NIQ raises $1.05 billion in US IPO
(Reuters) -Consumer insights company NIQ Global [NIQ.N], backed by investment firms Advent International and KKR, said on Tuesday it had raised $1.05 billion in its initial public offering in the United States. About 50 million shares were priced at $21 each in the IPO, valuing NIQ at $6.35 billion. The move sets the stage for the company's debut on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday, amid a wave of recent IPOs in a market that is showing signs of revival after a prolonged slowdown. NIQ, which provides insights into consumer shopping behavior to help brands and retailers refine their products and strategies, has about 23,000 clients, including Coca-Cola , Nestlé and Sony. The Chicago, Illinois-based company is led by Jim Peck, the former CEO of credit information firm TransUnion. For the three months ended March 31, NIQ reported revenue of $965.9 million, a slight increase from the prior year. Its net loss attributable to the company narrowed to $73.7 million, compared to $173.9 million a year earlier. Proceeds from the IPO will be used to repay some debt and for general corporate purposes, NIQ said. The company's competitors include Circana and YouGov. BofA Securities and UBS Investment Bank are among the underwriters for the IPO. The listing comes more than four years after NIQ was spun off from Nielsen Holdings.

BOJ's Uchida warns of downside risks to economy on trade uncertainty
By Leika Kihara KOCHI, Japan (Reuters) -Bank of Japan Deputy Governor Shinichi Uchida said on Wednesday that risks to economic activity and prices were skewed to the downside due to "extremely high" uncertainty over trade policy and its effect on domestic and overseas growth. The BOJ will continue to raise its policy interest rate if the economy and prices move in line with its projections, Uchida said in a speech. But Uchida said the central bank will scrutinise "without any preconceptions" whether its projections will materialise due to a lack of clarity on how U.S. trade policy unfolds, and affects the global economy and markets. If some progress is made in U.S. President Donald Trump's trade negotiations with other countries, Japanese companies will likely enjoy strong profits and continue hiking wages, he said. "But if the negative impact of tariff policies turns out to be greater or more prolonged than expected, the wage-hike trend seen in the past few years could weaken," Uchida said. "The BOJ needs to adjust monetary policy to best balance upside and downside risks from the perspective of maintaining economic and price stability," he added. Sign in to access your portfolio
