Instacart priced its IPO at $30 a share, at the upper end of its expected range, a sign of investor appetite for new offerings. <\/p>\n

The San-Francisco based company said late Monday that it sold 22 million shares at $30 each, matching the upper end of the $28 to $30 price range it had previously planned. At $30 a share, Instacart has a market value of $9.9 billion, based on the company\u2019s fully diluted share count.<\/p>\n

\n

The IPO raises a total of $660 million, roughly $420 million of which goes to the company. The company is set to begin trading on the Nasdaq Tuesday under the symbol CART. <\/p>\n

Instacart is one of the year\u2019s most hotly watched IPOs, following the listing of chip designer
\n Arm Holdings
\n (ticker: ARM) last week. Taken together, they are expected to crack open the window for the IPO market, which has been quiet for most of the year. Klaviyo, a marketing software company, is also set to come public this week. <\/p>\n

Arm saw significant demand for its shares, with the stock opening 10% higher than its IPO price, but enthusiasm has since cooled. Shares fell 4.5% on Friday and closed down the same amount on Monday. <\/p>\n

How Instacart trades Tuesday and beyond will depend on investors\u2019 faith in the future of the gig economy\u2019s expansion and profitability. Maplebear, as Instacart is formally known, generated $2.55 billion in revenue last year, up 39% from a year earlier. Roughly three-quarters of that revenue came from the company\u2019s core business of delivering groceries to homes with the help of contractors. The rest was generated from other services and a new offering called Instacart Ads, where retailers pay to show ads to customers.<\/p>\n

Instacart had net losses of $70 million and $73 million in 2020 and 2021, respectively. It generated net income of $428\u00a0million in 2022, though much of that came from a $358 million tax benefit.<\/p>\n

At the $30 per-share price tag, Instacart is valued at nearly four times its annual sales.
\n DoorDash
\n \u00a0(DASH), named as a competitor in Instacart\u2019s filings, has\u00a0a similar price-to-sales ratio of 4.1 times. DoorDash has consistently increased annual sales after going public in 2020, but the company has yet to turn a per-share profit. <\/p>\n

Instacart also lists UberEats, part of
\n Uber Technologies
\n (UBER), and Shipt, owned by Target, as competitors.<\/p>\n

Instacart, which was founded in 2012, <\/strong>officially filed to go public on Aug. 25 after a long wait\u2014the company\u00a0had first filed a confidential registration statement\u00a0for a potential\u00a0IPO\u00a0in\u00a0May\u00a02022. <\/p>\n
