Circle Star Energy Corp. is preparing to make its debut on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) with an initial public offering (IPO). The company plans to offer 32 million shares, with a price range set between $27.00 and $28.00. This move positions Circle Star Energy among other companies seeking to capitalize on investor interest through public offerings.
Circle Internet Group, a key player in the stablecoin market, recently set its IPO price at $31 per share, exceeding the anticipated range of $27 to $28. This pricing values the company at $6.8 billion. The strong demand for Circle’s shares led to an increase in the number of shares offered, from the initially planned 32 million to 34 million shares.
Circle’s IPO aims to raise $1.05 billion, with the company and its founder, along with some original shareholders, selling shares. Initially, Circle planned to raise $624 million by offering 24 million shares priced between $24 and $26 each. The underwriters, including JPMorgan, Citigroup, and Goldman Sachs, have a 30-day option to sell an additional 5.1 million shares.
Circle’s stock, listed under the ticker symbol CRCL, has attracted interest from notable investors, including Cathie Wood’s ARK Investment Management, which plans to purchase up to $150 million worth of shares. The upsized IPO pricing at $31 per share reflects strong investor confidence in Circle’s market potential, as highlighted by CNBC’s Tanaya Macheel.
The IPO marks a significant milestone for Circle as it expands its influence in the financial technology industry. The company’s strategic move to offer 34 million shares, including 14.8 million directly from Circle and 19.2 million from selling stockholders, underscores its growth ambitions.
