Instacart’s shares are surging in the grocery delivery company’s stock market debut

(Reuters) -Instacart's shares jumped 43% in their Nasdaq debut on Tuesday, giving the grocery delivery app a valuation of nearly $14 billion.

Instacart was set to be valued at about $13 billion in its Nasdaq debut on Tuesday, as the grocery delivery app's stock was indicated to open 30% higher from its initial public offering price. The San Francisco-based company's IPO was priced at the top end of its $28 to $30 price range, raising a total of $660 million in proceeds, out of which $237 million will go to investors who sold their shares in the offering. The IPO gave Instacart a valuation of nearly $9.9 billion, a fraction of the $39 billion it was worth in 2021, the company's last funding round. Instacart's strong debut, along with that of chip designer Arm and RayzeBio last week, could encourage other startups to test the waters and potentially revive the IPO market after a near 18-month dry spell.

Its core business also turned profitable in 2022, and the trend has continued in the first six months of 2023, the company disclosed in its regulatory filing last month. Goldman Sachs and J.P.
