What To Know About Arm Ahead Of Its IPO

Aug 22, 2023 - news.crunchbase.com
Arm Holdings, a leading technology company whose chip designs are used in an estimated 99% of smartphones worldwide, has filed plans for its long-awaited IPO. The company's debut could potentially revitalize the IPO market, which has seen a slowdown in venture-backed startups going public over the past two years. SoftBank, which purchased Arm in 2016 and attempted to sell it to Nvidia in 2020, has chosen Nasdaq for the IPO, bypassing the London Stock Exchange.

The company aims for a listing valuation of $60 billion-$70 billion when it debuts on the Nasdaq next month. Arm's revenue in its fiscal year 2023 was $2.68 billion, with a net income of $524 million. The company, founded in 1990, has approximately 6,000 employees globally and produces 30 billion computer chips a year. Major tech companies including Apple, Intel, Amazon, Nvidia, Microsoft, Google parent Alphabet, Samsung Electronics, and TSMC are reportedly interested in investing in the IPO.
