Walmart-backed Ibotta targets up to $2.7 bln valuation in US IPO
Apr 17, 2024 8:16 PM

April 17 (Reuters) - Walmart ( WMT )-backed digital

marketing company Ibotta will likely raise $577.3 million at a

valuation of $2.67 billion, after pricing its initial public

offering on Wednesday.

It plans to sell 6.6 million shares of its class A common

stock at $88 apiece, exceeding its earlier price range of

$76-$84 apiece, Ibotta added.

Increased buzz around artificial intelligence and hopes of a

rebound in the U.S. IPO market from a two-year slump, buoyed by

a possible soft landing for the economy have encouraged more

tech companies to test the IPO waters.

Ibotta, founded in 2011, provides a platform for brands to

deliver promotions to customers and offer cash back rewards on

their everyday purchases.

Goldman Sachs ( GS ), Citigroup Global Markets, and BofA Securities

are the lead underwriters for the IPO.

Ibotta will list on the New York Stock Exchange under ticker

symbol "IBTA", with shares expected to start trading on

Thursday.

According to the statement, the drains in the locality have been cleared on a war footing in order to avoid any possible waterlogging. "Four teams of PPT with chain saws and Pay loader are ready to function roundtheclock during the cyclone to clear the roads due to possible uprooting of trees. "As precautionary measures, no inward movement of ships has been permitted from 2200 hrs of May 23, 2021," it said. The Port had planned only outward movement of ships which was expected to be completed by 1200 hrs on Monday, the statement said, adding all operations will be wound up and the Port will be cleared of all personnel by Tuesday morning. All vessels at Paradip anchorage have been asked to pick up anchor and move to sea, it said.
