The telco will join its competitors, Bharti Airtel and Vi, which are already public. According to a<a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/india/ambanis-reliance-jio-ipo-set-2025-retail-debut-much-later-sources-say-2024-11-04/"> report</a> by Reuters, Reliance Jio is expected to go public in 2025 and the IPO for the retail arm is planned later. As per two sources familiar with the matter, <keyword id="19916798" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="mukesh-ambani" source="keywords">Mukesh Ambani</keyword> plans on sticking to the timeline he mentioned in 2019, where he said he will “move towards” listing in five years. <div type="Article" hostid="261" msid="114931927" title="October auto sales – Maruti Suzuki and Tata Motors report a decline, Mahindra continues to grow" mstype="2" mssubtype="0"></div> The company has firmed up plans of taking the telecom arm public as it feels the company has achieved a stable business and revenue stream. Jio is currently the biggest telecom operator in India, with over 471 million subscribers as of August 2024. Reliance Industries has raised over $25 billion for the company’s digital, telecom and retail businesses from investors like KKR, Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, General Atlantic and more. <h2>Reliance <keyword id="6059106" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jio-ipo" source="Orion">Jio IPO</keyword> to be India’s biggest</h2>Existing rules state that companies that are valued at ₹1 lakh crore or more need to sell at least 5% of total shares during an IPO. Jio is currently valued at $112 billion (₹9.42 lakh crore) as per Jefferies. A 5% stake sale would put the IPO at around ₹47,100 crore, beating the recently concluded IPO of Hyundai Motor India, which raised ₹27,870.16 crore. <h2>Retail IPO further away</h2>While no timeline has been mentioned, the retail arm’s IPO has reportedly been pushed further away, as the company feels it needs to address internal business and operational challenges. Not only this, the company reportedly wants to avoid two big IPOs hitting the Dalal street in the same year. With Jio’s IPO planned for 2025, we might see the retail arm going public in 2026 or later. Reliance Retail operates over 3,000 supermarkets and also deals in the e-commerce segment. The company feels the retail arm has grown “too fast” and needs some stability before the IPO.

Reliance Jio IPO – India’s biggest telco to go public in 2025, retail IPO further away

<ul class="summary-list"><li>The healthcare market looks nearly ready for the next wave of IPOs.</li><li>Barclays' Jon Swope says IPO hopefuls should prepare by increasing the awareness of their companies.</li></ul>It's been a rough few years for healthcare initial public offerings. But the next wave of public healthcare companies looks to be on the horizon.At least two healthcare companies are considering public-market debuts in the not-so-distant future.

What can we learn from those companies' challenges, and how might they impact the next round of healthcare IPOs?The whipsaw of the public markets over the last five years has created a challenging backdrop, even with the overall market improving.From 2019 through 2021, nearly 20 companies went public through IPOs or SPACs in healthtech. At its peak, the total market cap for healthtech and digital health was over $300 billion. Through both take-privates and declines in share prices, that's down to just about $90 billion.Large take-privates like Change Healthcare, Nuance, Cerner, Inovalon, and others are part of the story. The other part is that, on average, the companies that went public or were already public are down by about 80% — names like Teladoc, Accolade, and Health Catalyst.The enthusiasm that supported the last wave, with respect to the positive and innovative business models in healthtech and digital health, is not gone. It's just that these companies haven't been able to achieve growth with profitability. When there's a next set, there's going to be more of a focus on growth and profitability.You see that in the IPOs that happened this year: Waystar and Tempus. Waystar is large-scale, profitable, with growth, and Tempus has the promise of AI, high growth, and emerging profitability. Both have performed since their public debut.In the private sphere, many investors have leaned away from healthcare services and into healthcare AI. What models do you expect the healthcare market to favor in this next round of IPOs?There are three general categories that are investible in healthtech and digital healthcare. One is simply data and then technology and healthcare. Healthcare is arguably two decades behind every other industry in the adoption of technology. Whether it's software, tech-enabled models, or, importantly, the data opportunity and AI opportunity, tech and data infrastructure for healthcare is No. 1.No. 2 is consumer-centric models, such as some B2B2C models, the employer and payer digital-health models, or even direct-to-consumer models. Look at <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/inside-hims-founders-journey-to-go-public-via-spac-2021-1">the performance of Hims</a>, which has emerged from its post-SPAC purgatory.Consumer-centric healthcare is the future of healthcare, and it's becoming more of our collective reality. The companies with consumer-centric business models that deliver longitudinal engagement and outcomes, financial and clinical, for consumers and the payers of healthcare, both employers and insurance companies, are certainly on the list.No. 3 is value-based care. Much has been made of that as a category, tying together costs and outcomes. And while some of the brick-and-mortar value-based care companies have had their own challenges, support for the adoption of value-based care by providers will continue to be where healthcare is going.Are there models in healthcare that you think are perhaps not the best fit for the public markets right now?The less complex the elevator pitch, the better. While I can't say there's a model that's not a fit, what we heard from investors as things were bending in the wrong direction last boom cycle was: "Wait, what did I just buy? I'm not sure I fully understand this company's business model."Now you have to juxtapose that against the reality of healthcare, which is complex. So it's companies that can articulate a clear and simple story while also navigating the layers of the healthcare ecosystem in executing on their business model.That includes riding the existing rails. In the last five-plus years we've seen companies figuring out how to work with the payers and providers that make up the healthcare ecosystem to bring innovation and disruption to how we experience healthcare.Given the major slowdown in SPAC deals in the past few years and Nuvo's poor performance (<a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-08-22/newly-public-pregnancy-care-firm-nuvo-files-for-bankruptcy">and bankruptcy</a>) this year, could we see more SPAC deals for healthcare startups next year?It's a four-letter word for the foreseeable future. I imagine there will be SPACs created, and there are still others that haven't run out of time, but it's unlikely that we see companies using that vehicle that could go public the regular way.For startups that don't go public, will we see M&amp;A pick up in 2025? With large retailers like Walmart pulling away from healthcare, who are the potential buyers?M&amp;A is picking up already, as evidenced by volume this year, and it will continue to, particularly in an easing financing environment and macro backdrop where bid-ask spreads are narrowing.The consolidation activity is in three categories. First, there are the large-cap consolidators including retailers, payers, and Big Tech. There will be deals there, but there are only so many that will be done by that group, which is not much more than a dozen companies.The next is large-cap, and often private-equity-backed, healthtech consolidators. A number of them are private and will continue to be buyers.The third category is just smaller mergers of equals. Especially for enterprise sales, selling into payers or selling to providers, scale matters, and so size matters. We'll see small companies merge with other small companies to get there.Anything else startups should know that might impact this next cycle of IPOs?While these companies that went public in the last cycle may not have fulfilled their promises, they set the stage for an attractive IPO market by going public the right way — executing on the business and growing it, and increasing awareness around the company well in advance of an IPO.At the back end of the last boom wave there was a rush to go public, and SPACs were examples of that. I think that in the 2025, 2026, and 2027 IPO classes, there will be a number of companies that think about it the right way, not rushing to get to the public market.

2025 could bring a wave of healthcare IPOs. Here's what startups should know, according to a top banker.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Louis Lehot, a Silicon Valley law-firm partner, specializes in taking companies from startup to IPO.</li><li>Lehot gave his suggestions for how to prepare, like hires to make and risks to consider pre-IPO.</li></ul>The IPO market is expected to pick up later this year, so Business Insider emailed Silicon Valley lawyer Louis Lehot, a partner at Foley &amp; Lardner, for advice on how startups should prepare for life as public companies.Lehot has more than 25 years of experience advising businesses, financial sponsors, venture capitalists, investors, and investment banks on topics including equity offerings, mergers, acquisitions, and spinoffs. His work often involves helping startups prepare for initial public offerings.The following has been edited for brevity.What's the environment like for IPOs?2023 was the toughest year for IPO activity in more than two decades. The IPO outlook for the second half of 2024, or at least the first half of 2025, can only get better.Riskier assets, such as Bitcoin, have rebounded strongly, suggesting risk appetite is a lot higher. The Fed is expected to make at least one rate cut later this year. The after-market performance of some recent IPOs has been stronger. Earnings reports from public companies are improving.There's a substantial backlog of companies preparing to go public as soon as the window opens, and the outcome of important federal and state election races should bring greater clarity.Which sectors are most likely to be successful in an IPO?<ul><li>Healthcare and Biotech: These companies go public as part of their venture financing path, often before they have a product in the market. As a result, they are heavily risk-driven, and the opportunity to make alpha with smaller amounts of capital invested is real. If risk appetite is truly back, we can expect investors to pile into biotech, life sciences, and medical device IPOs. New tech, enabled by CRISPR and AI, should increase the speed and accuracy of clinical trials.</li><li>Green Energy: As the effects of climate change spread, we expect industrial policy to favor renewable energy companies and the ecosystem that they enable, maybe even nuclear energy. Renewables and related technologies are gaining traction with a growing focus on sustainability.</li><li>Enterprise software and fintech: There's a solid backlog of late-stage private companies whose venture capital and private equity investors require a public market exit to return capital to limited partners and raise new funds. As a result, we expect a bumper crop of enterprise software (B2B solutions, cloud services, and cybersecurity) and fintech companies (digital banking, payments, and financial services) to come to market when the window opens later this year or next.</li></ul>Are public market investors generally keen to invest in IPOs, or are they focused elsewhere?Public market investors are selective, focusing on established profitability and sustainable growth over speculative, high-growth stories. Many investors are diverting their attention to safer, more predictable assets due to market volatility and economic concerns.What are IPO investors expecting in the current climate?<ul><li>Profitability, or a clear path to profitability: Unlike previous periods focused solely on growth, profitability is now critically correlated to a successful IPO.</li><li>Sustainable revenue growth: Consistent and predictable growth trajectories</li><li>Robust metrics: Strong KPIs and unit economics</li><li>Valuation discipline: More conservative valuations compared to the frothy markets of past IPO booms</li></ul>Should tech startups want to go public right now?If you have a choice, you stay private.For example, if you're the CEO of a successful startup with more than $100 million in revenue that's growing in excess of 30% at over 40% gross profit margins, every door is open to you.There's ample private capital to finance your company's scaling needs. There is likely a robust secondary market for your personal shares if you need to take some chips off the table. You have no obligation to report your compensation and equity holdings publicly or your company's quarterly results, much less live under the public microscope and the constant glare of Wall Street analysts who are focused on reporting on any short-term event that might drive trading.Fringe benefits include more control over business decisions, fewer regulatory requirements, and the ability to focus on long-term growth.The choice is not even close. Any CEO-founder would want to stay private. Look no further than the example of the <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-collison-brothers-built-stripe-most-valuable-us-startup-2021-3">Collison brothers at Stripe</a>.However, the characteristics that drive a transformational CEO-founder to achieve this level of commercial success are not necessarily driven by the same logic.The vision of a transformational CEO extends far beyond the perceived short-term benefits of a quick exit. I'm surrounded by mission-driven CEO's with the burning ambition to achieve global market ubiquity, which usually means an IPO is a necessary step on their long road.What are the most important hires to make before an IPO?<ul><li>Chief Financial Officer: A CFO with public company experience is crucial for navigating financial reporting and investor relations.The CFO of a public company is the first or second line of communication with Wall Street, key long-term investors, auditors of your financial statements, and financial regulators. In addition, the finance department will quickly need someone who can manage internal controls over financial reporting and write public financial reports. This person is usually a "controller."The CFO will also need someone who can forecast, model, and plan ahead and ensure that the company, when going public and forever thereafter, accurately telegraphs its future performance on a forward-looking, one-quarter, and one-year-ahead basis. This is usually a vice president for forecasting, planning, and analysis, or FP&amp;A. For larger public companies, a chief accounting officer is also on the road map.</li><li>General Counsel: Whereas 20 years ago, a general counsel was not hired until just before an IPO, nowadays, a company with $10 million of revenue or more may consider hiring a head of legal in-house to control costs, particularly for rote, repeatable tasks. But an IPO puts the company under a microscope of regulatory, investor, employee, and public scrutiny where the stakes get large enough that an experienced general counsel is usually hired, and if large enough to support the cost, even a deputy general counsel for securities law compliance to manage the more hours intensive processes of making the company ready for IPO and maintaining compliance thereafter.</li><li>Investor Relations Officer: About a year ahead of the big day, a forward-thinking CFO will try to hire a vice president of investor relations who has been through the process of managing a syndicate of analysts before, during, and after an IPO. Particularly for larger companies who garner analyst coverage from six or more sell-side and buy-side analysts, making sure the analysts are getting adequate information to build quality models will ensure higher quality coverage and greater liquidity for the company once public, which is a critical indicator of success.</li><li>Audit Committee Chair: While a pre-IPO company will seek to hire a majority-independent board of directors, the audit committee chair is one key role to fill on the board.The audit committee chair is usually a former CFO who has deep knowledge of the IPO process and the interplay of a board of directors and its independent registered public accounting firm, which is a critical relationship at every stage of an IPO and beyond.The audit committee's role is to oversee the production and auditing of the financial statements and the financial integrity of the company's public disclosures and compliance with regulatory standards. The audit committee chair will want to make sure there are at least two other directors who can serve independently on the audit committee who are financially literate and expert enough to assist them.</li></ul>What are the biggest changes startups must go through to be IPO-ready?To consider a successful IPO, a tech company will need to have line of sight to $100 million in revenue with eight quarters of historical growth and line of sight to eight quarters in the future of predictable growth. For a tech business, annual growth in GAAP revenue will need to be in excess of 20% (and ideally double this amount) at gross margins of 40% or more. These are herculean feats that few businesses will ever achieve.There also has to be some other ingredient, which some call the "sizzle," to inspire long-term fundamental investors to believe that growth can be significantly greater than what the models show over the next eight quarters.Historically, that sizzle could be explained by exposure to international markets that would be enabled by the scaling capital provided by the IPO.Today, revenue from a US tech business may well be evenly split between US and international markets from the outset, so the "sizzle" will need to come from planned advances in technology, new product releases, and new product enhancements that will unlock new and significant branches of growth.What are the key process changes companies need to make ahead of an IPO?<ul><li>Leveling up the company's financial reporting function: Enhanced accuracy and transparency in financial statements is an absolute necessity, both historically and forward-looking for eight quarters in both directions.</li><li>Corporate governance: Companies need to recruit an experienced, independent, and supportive board that can provide wisdom to management during the IPO process and beyond.</li><li>Operational scalability: Ensuring systems and processes can support growth and compliance requirements. Have you installed a world-class ERP software system? Do you have a contract management system and CRM software? Do they all work together?</li><li>Compliance and risk management: Implementing robust controls to meet regulatory standards is a playbook that a new CFO and new General Counsel can implement with the help of outside advisors.</li></ul>

How startups can get in top shape for an IPO, according to Silicon Valley lawyer Louis Lehot

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Diabetes startup Omada Health has confidentially filed its S-1 for an IPO, BI has learned.</li><li>It's among a crop of hot startups patiently waiting for the markets to reopen for healthcare IPOs.</li></ul>Rumors about diabetes startup Omada Health's public market debut have been <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/healthcare-startups-ipo-public-markets-reopens-2024-1">swirling</a> for years. Now, its IPO may finally be within reach.Omada Health confidentially filed its S-1 this summer to go public, according to one person with knowledge of the transaction.It's been a long time coming for Omada, which was founded in 2011 to treat diabetes and other chronic conditions with a combination of virtual coaching and remote monitoring.Omada last raised a <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/omada-health-pitch-deck-raise-192-million-2022-7">$192 million Series E</a> in 2022, which boosted its valuation <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.fiercehealthcare.com/health-tech/omada-health-hits-unicorn-status-192m-fidelity-led-series-e">over $1 billion</a>. It's raised about $450 million to date, according to PitchBook.An Omada Health spokesperson said the company "can't comment on rumors or speculation at this time."Omada CEO Sean Duffy has never spoken publicly about the startup's IPO plans. But Omada could be one of the select healthcare startups to test the IPO waters when the markets warm up, hopefully in 2025.Hinge Health has hired banks including Morgan Stanley as <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hinge-health-s-1-morgan-stanley-ipo-2024-9">the physical therapy startup prepares to confidentially file its S-1</a>, BI previously reported.

After 20 healthcare startups went public in 2021, only one healthcare company went public the following year — Akili Interactive, which <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/virtual-therapeutics-announces-results-tender-111900807.html">sold for $34 million</a> this July. No healthcare startups went public in 2023.2024's IPO market has remained rocky. Three digital health companies have gone public this year: revenue cycle management company Waystar, remote pregnancy monitoring company Nuvo, and precision medicine company Tempus AI. Both Waystar's and Tempus's stock have surged about 30% since their public market debuts, as of October 1. Nuvo, which went public in a SPAC deal in May, <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-08-22/newly-public-pregnancy-care-firm-nuvo-files-for-bankruptcy">filed for bankruptcy in August</a>.Cameron Lester, global co-head of technology, media, and telecom investment banking at Jefferies, told Business Insider in August that <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/servicetitan-waiting-until-after-the-election-to-go-public-2024-8">many companies are now waiting until 2025</a>, after the US presidential election has concluded, to consider an IPO. He said the firm expects "a strong 2025 with lots of companies getting ready to go public."Ben Narasin, founder and general partner at Tenacity Venture Capital and an early investor in Omada Health, told BI he believes the first quarter of 2024 "will unleash the IPO beast back into the wild, and we will see a long-awaited return to liquidity, starting with the best and most compelling companies that currently clog a congested pipe of massive scale."Omada has made plenty of progress in the IPO drought, including by notching a <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://resourcecenter.omadahealth.com/blog/omada-health-joins-amazons-health-condition-programs-as-launch-partner">partnership with Amazon</a> in January. It's also sought deals to help employers <a target="_blank" rel="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/omada-strategy-weight-loss-drugs-semaglutide-ozempic-2023-5">manage patients on weight-loss drugs like Ozempic</a>."Probably every year for the last five years, I get asked about Omada's IPO," Duffy told BI in January. "We want to make sure that Omada continues to grow, and that we're the sort of business that can thrive independently."

However, others in the financial space think the Fed's promised rate cuts and a weak M&amp;A market will create the perfect circumstances for companies that have pushed off their IPOs to go public next year."The outlook is merry and bright for the 2024 IPO market," Lise Buyer, founder of the IPO consultancy Class V Group, told <a target="_blank" href="https://www.barrons.com/articles/tech-ipo-outlook-2024-d6a4b40b">Barron's</a>.Buyer told the outlet that some venture-backed companies, strapped for cash, may view an IPO as "an increasingly appealing option" and that "renewed, albeit meaningfully slower growth, coupled with last year's expense rationalization/control leaves many with a genuine path to believable profitability."Here are five much-anticipated IPOs that could finally be ready to debut next year:<h2>Discord</h2>The social messaging platform has been the subject of IPO rumors since the end of 2021 when the company reportedly turned down a <a target="_blank" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/7-potential-ipos-in-2022-discord-opensea-impossible-foods-and-more-1031069950">$10 billion buyout offer</a> from Microsoft. Discord, widely expected to launch its IPO this year, was valued at $15 billion in a 2021 funding round — though it remains unclear if the company would hit that valuation in a potential 2024 IPO, given market fluctuations.<h2>Reddit</h2>Reddit began making preparations to go public early last year. Business Insider previously reported the social media company hoped to debut its IPO at a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/reddit-openai-chatgpt-ipo-valuation-karma-2023-6">$15 billion valuation</a>. Still, market volatility caused the company to push back the public launch. According to <a target="_blank" rel=" nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-11-27/reddit-leads-class-of-2024-us-ipo-candidates-testing-the-water">Bloomberg</a>, the company is now eyeing a first-quarter IPO in 2024 and courting potential investors like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.<h2>Chime</h2>According to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/exclusive-chime-lines-up-goldman-sachs-blockbuster-ipo-sources-2022-01-21/#:~:text=The%20financial%20technology%20startup%20will,valuation%20of%20nearly%20%2440%20billion.">Reuters</a>, Chime, the digital, fee-free banking company valued at $25 billion in a 2021 funding round, hired Goldman Sachs in 2022 to advise on an IPO. The digital bank denied it had immediate plans for a public debut but may have been simply waiting out the frozen market.<h2>Stripe</h2>In January of this year, The Wall Street Journal reported that fintech startup Stripe publicly <a target="_blank" href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/stripe-sets-one-year-timetable-to-decide-on-going-public-11674749304">announced a one-year timetable</a> to decide whether to go public — and we're coming up on the deadline. The company, valued in 2021 at $95 billion, raised $6.5 billion in March of this year with a lower, though not insignificant, valuation of $50 billion.<h2>Klarna</h2>Klarna is "pretty much ready" for an IPO, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/video/2023/11/12/klarna-is-pretty-much-ready-for-an-ipo-ceo-says.html">CNBC</a> reported CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski said last month after recording the company's first profitable quarter since 2019. Though the buy-now, pay-later firm's valuation plummeted from $45.6 billion to $6.7 billion in 2022, Business Insider reported Siemiatkowski said he was <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/klarna-ceo-on-profitability-ipo-and-us-market-push-2022-12">waiting for a "sane market"</a> before launching a public offering.
