IPO Details
What is ARM Holdings Inc.?
Arm Holding Inc., also known as Arm Limited, or ARM, is a British semiconductor and software design company selling rights to the manufacturers of popular computer chips and technology as we know it today.
ARM is a subsidiary of the Japanese tech-conglomerate company, SoftBank since its purchase in 2016 for $24B. SoftBank Group is widely known to own a stake in companies like Alibaba (e-commerce), OYO Rooms (hospitality), WeWork (coworking), and more.
When is the anticipated IPO scheduled?
As expected, Arm Holdings initiated its IPO roadshow filing on Tuesday, September 5th, following the US Labor Day. This kicks off the official process and sets September 13th as the official estimated IPO launch date.
Once the roadshow concludes, the IPO could potentially materialize in as few as one to two weeks, placing the prospective timeframe around the middle to the end of September 13th, as mentioned previously. The precise timing hinges on various factors, including considerations like the underwriters' evaluation of the necessity for price adjustments and the resolution of any potential hurdles pertaining to essential document submissions.
ARM Holdings Inc. IPO Statistics
Traders are anxiously anticipating ARM’s upcoming IPO with valuation estimates that span from $30B to $80B, driven by elevated optimism surrounding the company's intimate affiliations with the technology integral to our daily lives, as well as its substantial contractual partnerships for CPUs with industry giants such as Apple and Nvidia.
The fiscal year 2021 saw revenues amounting to $2.7B, reflecting an impressive 35% surge attributed to the company's advancement in both royalty and non-royalty revenue streams. In line with the proposed acquisition endeavor that ultimately faltered between 2020 and 2021, Arm's perceived value stands notably north of $40B (£29.6 billion).
More on ARM Holdings Inc.
In 2020, Softbank formally disclosed its intention to divest ARM to NVIDIA, a prominent American chip manufacturer. However, a significant development transpired in February 2022, as the substantial $80B transaction encountered an impasse due to competition concerns voiced by multiple governmental entities.
Consequently, the strategic shift towards an ARM listing trajectory is poised to potentially yield a comparatively moderated financial outcome in contrast to the potentially substantial gains achievable through the original NVIDIA transaction. Nonetheless, ARM is actively engaged in substantial discussions with Nvidia to secure its pivotal role as a prominent investor for the impending ARM listing on the New York stock exchange. Notably, this endeavor is marked by the concurrent involvement of eminent industry stalwarts, including notable names like Apple and Amazon.
- ARM’s technology is found in about 99% of the world’s smartphones including brands like Apple, Android, and Samsung.
- As new technology emerges, much is often based on Arm’s advanced processor designs including technology for self-driving cars, industrial automation, and more.
