Uber: The Path to an $82B IPO
Uber publicly filed its Form S-1 on April 11, 2019 and began its roadshow shortly thereafter. The company was met with investor concern regarding its lack of profits and ability to compete domestically and internationally. Additionally, Lyft's post-IPO decline weighed on Uber's pricing prospects. Not looking to repeat Lyft's stumble, the company settled on a $45 share price or an $82B valuation, on the low end of its $44 to $50 initial share price range.
Uber: The Path to an $82B IPO

Calculations are based on shares outstanding. Explain

Companies analyzed in the Path to IPO are chosen on the basis of interest to the investing public and are not necessarily those in which transactions have been completed on the EquityZen platform. An investment through EquityZen is not an investment in a primary funding round; accordingly it is unlikely that an investment through EquityZen will perform similarly to the primary funding rounds highlighted in the Path to IPO. Most private companies are not successful enough to have an IPO, and many successful private companies may elect to not have an IPO. Investing in a private company through EquityZen may result in a partial or complete loss of your investment.
