  • Instacart  is a start-up company that jumped to the top in home delivery of grocery goods. So it is becoming necessary for it to avail the benefits of public equity shares. By selling shares to public it can raise huge capital for development of the comapny.

When does Instacart plan to file for IPO?

  • It has chosen to Goldman Sachs to lead its IPO. Also, since the tentative move to apply for IPO, the company’s valuation has more than doubled to $39 billion in less than 6 months.
  • Recently however, there are news that Instacart may delay filing the IPO till late 2021. This is because they want to establish that it is not only because of the pandemic that they are growing at such a accelerated pace. The delay is to reassure its future potential investors.

Is it true that Instacart may not file an IPO?

  • Instacart will still be going public, but it may file a Direct Listing instead of filling an IPO.
  • The difference is that in a direct listing, the company does not create any new shares and sells the existing shares on the market. It thus generates no additional revenues.
  • Whereas, in an IPO additional shares are created and so is additional income but the company also has to undertake additional paperwork and other procedural requirements.

Conclusion

Well, it is a only a matter of time before Instacart turns public. Now the real question is Will it be a company worth investing in once it turns public?
