The top 10 US IPOs in the last decade and how their stock performed via YahooFinance
2019 is poised to be a hot year for IPOs. With ride-sharing company Lyft kicking things off, investors are anxiously awaiting other highly anticipated unicorns’ IPOs such as Uber, Airbnb, SpaceX, Pinterest, Slack and a handful of others expected to run out of the gate this year. Looking back on the past decade, these are the top 10 U.S. IPOs based on valuation at the time of debut, not including underwriter over-allotment.
2. Facebook Facebook’s debut on the public market on May 18, 2012 was one of the most highly anticipated IPOs over the past decade. The social media company was valued at $16 billion at the time of its IPO and was priced at $38 per share. The Nasdaq’s technological glitches hampered Facebook’s first day of trading and shares closed flat at $38.23. As excited as investors were to get in on Facebook’s IPO, the first year of trading was rough.
5. Snap Social media giant Snap was perhaps the most anticipated tech IPO since Facebook. It debuted on the public market on March 2, 2017 with a $3.4 billion valuation. Shares priced at $17 and closed their first day of trading at $24.48. 7. Banco Santander México In the same year as Facebook, Spanish bank Banco Santander’s Mexican unit debuted on the U.S. market on September 26, 2012 with a $2.9 billion valuation.
