A first look at Qualtrics’ IPO pricing
Earlier today, Qualtrics dropped a new S-1 filing, this time detailing its proposed IPO pricing. That means we can now get a good look at how much the company may be worth when it goes public later this month.
The debut has been one TechCrunch has been looking forward to since the company announced that it would be spun out from its erstwhile corporate parent, SAP. In 2019, the Germany-based enterprise giant SAP snatched up Qualtrics for $ 8 billion just before it was to go public.
Qualtrics is either worth less than we would have guessed, or its first IPO range feels light.
That figure provides a good marker for how well SAP has done with the deal and how much value Qualtrics has generated in the intervening years. Keep in mind, however, that the value of software companies has risen greatly in the last few years, so the numbers we’ll see below benefit from a market-wide repricing of recurring revenue.
Qualtrics estimates that it may be worth $ 22 to $ 26 per share when it goes public. Is that a lot? Let’s find out.
Qualtrics’ first IPO range
First, scale. Qualtrics is selling just under 50 million shares in its public offering. As you can math out, at more than $ 20 per share, the company is looking to raise north of $ 1 billion.
After going public, Qualtrics anticipates having 510,170,610 shares outstanding, inclusive of its 7.4 million underwriter option. Using that simple share count, Qualtrics would be worth $ 11.2 billion to $ 13.3 billion.
