eToro Group Ltd said today (Monday) it is targeting a valuation

initial public offering. The company aims to list 10 million Class A common

eToro Offers 10 Million Shares IPO
The IPO price is expected to be between $46 and $50 per

eToro IPO Pending SEC Approval
The offering will only be made through a prospectus. A
registration statement has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission. However, it has not yet been declared effective.
No shares may be sold before the registration becomes
effective. The announcement is not an offer to sell or a request to buy the
shares in any region where it would be unlawful. The IPO depends on market
conditions and regulatory approval.

IPO Revisited Following Cancelled SPAC Deal
In late March, eToro
publicly filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission, following an earlier confidential submission. The filing marked
a formal step toward its IPO plans.
This was not eToro’s first attempt to go public. A
planned $10.4 billion SPAC merger in 2021 was later cancelled due to market
conditions. In 2023, the company raised $250 million at a $3.5 billion
valuation. Toward the end of last year,
it also gained regulatory approval to offer services in New York.
The offering remains subject to market conditions and
regulatory approval. No shares may be sold until the registration becomes
effective.
