Freshworks increases the IPO price; listed in the Nasdaq on September 22, at a price of almost 10 billion dollars<\/span><\/h2>\n

Freshworks \u2013 founded in a small warehouse in Chennai’s obscure suburb in 2010 \u2013 is all on Wall Street for its debut. On 22 September, Nasdaq will raise nearly $1.07 billion.<\/p>\n

Moreover, Freshworks has increased its IPO price band after successful road shows. Freshworks’ new pricing band is $32-34 per share in regulatory filings to the Securities Exchange Commission in the USA, versus $28-32 per share. Freshworks is now looking for an assessment of almost $10 billion, up from the $9 billion value it was looking for until last week.<\/p>\n

The last appraisal of Freshworks amounted to $3.5 billion in 2019, before the Covid-19 pandemic raised SaaS companies’ fortunes for obvious reasons.<\/p>\n

In its filings, Freshworks revealed that it can use the net proceeds of the IPO to acquire complementary companies, products, services or technologies.<\/p>\n
