US IPO Week Ahead: The March IPO Market Starts with a Quiet Week

Renaissance Capital2022-02-27

The IPO market is expected to have another quiet week heading into March, with just one SPAC currently scheduled for the week ahead.

Life sciences and sustainability-focused Valuence Merger I (VMCAU) may price, with plans to raise $200 million. The company is led by CEO Sung Yoon Woo, the founder and CEO of South Korean private equity firm Credian Partners.

We would normally expect to see launches as the February lull comes to a close, but new issuers are likely now waiting for the past week's market turmoil to settle. While the calendar is quiet for now, the IPO pipeline has plenty of candidates for when the market reopens.

Street research is expected for two companies, and lock-up periods will be expiring for up to four companies. For access to Street research and lock-up expiration dates, sign up for a free trial of IPO Pro.

    It is not a great time to launch IPOs due to the war in Ukraine.   The markets may have ended up higher last Friday but it is still rather volatile. 🤔
