By September 20, 2022 (Investorideas.com Newswire) The nine months of 2022 saw a dramatic slowdown in global IPO activity after a record year in 2021.
According to data presented by TradingPlatforms.com, global IPO activity slumped by 73% year-over-year, with the total value of deals reaching just over $116bn.
Total Value of Deals 40% Lower than in Q1 2021
As the global IPO momentum continues to slow down, the number of deals and the value of proceeds has dipped across most major markets. Increased market volatility caused by the Russia-Ukraine war and macroeconomic factors, dropping valuation and poor post-IPO share price performance led to a delay of many IPOs since the beginning of the year.
In Q1 2022 the value of IPO deals dropped by 73% YoY to $54.4bn, according to the Wall Street Journal and Dealogic data. The second quarter saw $37.3bn worth of IPO deals or 72% less than a year ago. The global IPO activity continued slowing down over the past three months, with the total value of deals reaching $24.7bn by mid-September.
Statistics show the total value of IPO deals in the nine months amounted to $116.2bn, or 40% less than in Q1 2021 only, the record quarter for IPO activity.
