Arm Holdings, the British chip design company, priced its initial public offering (IPO) at $51 per share on Wednesday, at the top of its expected range. The company is valued at $54.5 billion on a fully diluted basis.Arm's IPO is the biggest in the United States this year and is expected to be one of the most closely watched. The company is a major player in the semiconductor industry, providing chip designs to a wide range of devices, including smartphones, tablets, and servers.
Arm's IPO has been highly anticipated since SoftBank Group, its majority owner, announced plans to take the company public in July. However, the IPO has been overshadowed by the ongoing war in Ukraine and rising inflation, which have weighed on investor sentiment. Despite the challenges, Arm is expected to be a popular IPO among investors. The company has a strong track record of innovation and is well-positioned to benefit from the growing demand for chips in a wide range of applications.
Arm's IPO is expected to raise $4.87 billion for SoftBank, which will use the proceeds to finance its other investments. The company's shares are scheduled to start trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol ARM on Thursday.
