IPO market heats up: These 4 names prepare to go public next
EquityZen head of market insight Brianne Lynch joins Market Domination with Josh Lipton to discuss the initial public offering (IPO) market in light of Figma's (FIG) recent public debut and whether companies need to have an artificial intelligence (AI) story to succeed. She also shares which private companies are likely to go public next. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Domination. Which are the possible candidates in your opinion, that would be on your radar, who might be willing to test the public markets this year? Sure. So, you know, several of the names on our IPO outlook for the year have already gone public. But there are a few that we're still waiting on. One of the big ones being Klarna. This is a company that was planning to go public in the spring, tabled those plans given the volatility in the market post deliberation day. Uh but they're reportedly now looking at a September IPO. So that'll be, um, the next of several Fintech IPOs we've seen. You had Circle, um, Chime, eToro. So certainly, uh, Fintech is an area where we're seeing more activity and given Klarna's brand recognition, um, and you know, value in the market, that's one we have our eyes on. Right now if you're going to go public, Brian, do you have to have an AI story? Do you have to be able to just sprinkle some of that AI magic on your S-1? Yeah. I would say at a minimum you have to try. And Figma, you know, that's something that played into their story as well. They had so many case studies of their large enterprise clients saving, you know, lots of time and money because of the AI tools that they've built into their products. So, I think that's a table stake for any company that is looking to go public. And that might be the best option for public market investors at the time because you have to remember a lot of these pure play AI companies are still very young in their life cycle. They're less likely to be going public in the next few years. So yes, that's bringing more investors into the private markets to invest. Uh but to kind of capitalize on that interest, public companies or contenders to go public will also need to have that as part of their story. Do you think there there are certain kinds of private companies, Brian, that would be more likely to receive a warm welcome to the public markets in in this environment against this backdrop? Sure. I mean, we've seen a few examples of what has worked. You know, I talked about a little bit about the need for growth, the need for profitability, but when we look at the companies that may be coming next or even the IPOs we've seen in the first half of the year, it hasn't been just one sector or one industry. You've seen Fintech, um, you've seen crypto, which is obviously growing a lot and given, you know, the regulatory tailwinds, uh, we expect that to continue to be a hot market. Um, but then, you know, Netskope, another name on our outlook, that's a cybersecurity company. Um, StubHub, another one. That's an e-commerce player. So, it's definitely not a, you know, one sector narrative that's driving the market. It's more are you growing? Are you profitable? Do you have the brand name? Um, and do you have a a story that's exciting to investors, uh, especially, uh, given the lack of public companies relative to private companies now.
