Box Inc.

Etsy Inc

Etsy Inc

Etsy is an online marketplace for makers. You can buy everything from knitted scarves to hand-crafted wooden toys on the site.

The company went public in April 2015, and has not performed well since doing so. After Amazon announced it was creating a marketplace for handmade goods, shares of Etsy tumbled.

It does have a really neat office though.

Initial Offer: $16.00

First Day Closing Price: $30.00

Last Closing Price: $9.75 (~67% decrease)

Fitbit Inc

Fitbit Inc

Fitbit is one of the biggest forces in the quantified-self movement. The wearables company is such a popular brand that the President of the United States is known for regularly wearing one.

Unfortunately for the company, some investors have doubts about its continued success. Recent guidance was lower than expected, which sent share prices lower.

Initial Offer: $20.00

First Day Closing Price: $29.68

Last Closing Price: $13.50 (~61% decrease)

Square Inc.

Square Inc.

Jack Dorsey is probably better known for being co-founder and current CEO of Twitter, but his payments company Square went public last November.

The company has had its ups and downs and is currently sitting around 31% lower than its IPO price. Square fell 21% in a single day this year after reporting disappointing earnings.

Initial Offer: $9.00

First Day Closing Price: $13.07

Last Closing Price: $9.35 (~29% decrease)

Match Group

Match Group

You might not have heard of the Match Group, but you have heard of Tinder, Match.com and OkCupid, all of which Match Group owns.

Match Group went public last year, as a subsidiary of IAC Interactive. The company is one of the only companies on this list that sits above its IPO price. Despite a bit of trouble from a mouthy CEO, Match has been able to grow its group of dating companies without having them cannibalize each other.

Initial Offer: $12.00

First Day Closing Price: $14.74

Last Closing Price: $15.14 (~2.7% increase)

Atlassian Corp

Atlassian Corp

Atlassian is a software giant known for their collaboration software like HipChat and JIRA.

The company has famously never taken any venture capital to get started, and it runs profitably. Atlassian went public in December of 2015, but hasn't been the best performer since then.

Initial Offer: $21.00

First Day Closing Price: $27.78

Last Closing Price: $25.99 (~6% decrease)
