eToro Revives US IPO Plans Following Market Stabilization

eToro Revives US IPO Plans Following Market Stabilization Market News
  • eToro plans to launch its US IPO as early as next week after delaying due to Trump tariff volatility.
  • The company reported impressive 2024 financials: $931M in revenue and $192M in net income.

The US initial public offering of eToro Group Ltd. is set to resume its operations next week after market turbulence stemming from President Trump’s tariff announcements. This situation caused a postponement, according to sources who have knowledge of the situation.

The Israel-based trading platform filed with the SEC in March continues its listing plans because market conditions have improved.  Meanwhile, Robinhood and similar platforms have achieved significant gains during recent weeks.

Strong Financials Bolster eToro’s Market Position

The fintech company shows strong financial results before its public market entry. It achieved $931 million in total commission revenue for 2024 alongside $192 million in net income. The company showed significant financial growth since 2023 because it earned $639 million in commissions while maintaining $15.3 million in net income.

The upcoming Nasdaq Global Select Market listing of eToro will use ETOR as its ticker symbol while seeking a market capitalization of about $5 billion. eToro achieved financial support from Goldman Sachs and Jefferies, and UBS.

The company attempts a second public listing after its failed $10.4 billion SPAC merger attempt. Its platform launched in 2007 provides trading services for stocks and ETFs, and cryptocurrencies, while enabling users to replicate investment portfolios of leading investors.

The crypto and fintech market received a boost from regulatory changes that brought in a pro-crypto SEC chair. The positive market changes benefit eToro, together with other companies that heavily invest in digital assets.

Multiple sources suggest that the IPO launch could start next week, but market conditions will determine the actual timing, according to their assessment. eToro joins a group of financial technology companies, such as Circle and Kraken and Gemini that are moving forward with public listings due to improved sector regulations.
