Global IPO proceeds hit record high in 2026
According to EY's latest IPO Barometer, global IPO proceeds reached a record high in the first nine months of 2026, totaling $287.5 billion, a 151% increase year-over-year, despite a slight decline in the number of IPOs (888 vs. 922). The third quarter alone saw $93.3 billion raised across 367 deals, with large listings such as SK Hynix's $26.5 billion IPO on Nasdaq driving growth. China and Europe saw significant increases in both deal count and volume, while the US saw fewer IPOs but a 395% surge in proceeds to $163 billion. Germany recorded eight IPOs, including SMAG Mobile Antenna Masts and Helios Solar. Technology and advanced manufacturing dominated, with investors favoring sectors like AI, robotics, and energy. The outlook for Q4 remains cautiously positive.
IPO Winter at Wall Street: All Eyes on Anthropic
The IPO market is experiencing a severe slowdown despite record overall volumes, with many companies postponing or canceling their listings. The primary cause is investor focus on Anthropic's upcoming IPO, expected in mid-November, which is overshadowing other candidates. Notable postponements include EG Group, Oura, SB Energy, Holtec, and Bamboo Insurance. OpenAI has pushed its IPO to 2027. While mega-deals like SpaceX's $86B IPO and SK Hynix's $26.5B listing drove high proceeds, tech listings are trading 23% below first-day prices on average, indicating post-IPO performance concerns. The slowdown is global, affecting Europe and Asia, with companies like Waterstones and AS Watson delaying plans. The article highlights a disconnect between record index levels and the reluctance of companies to go public, as investors remain cautious about AI valuations.
