US IPO Weekly Recap: Circle soars nearly 250% after completing $1+ billion IPO

June 6, 2025
Weekly Recap

Two sizable issuers went public this past week and featured the best first-day pop for a billion-dollar IPO in Renaissance’s 30+ year history. Three IPOs and two SPACs also submitted initial filings.

Stablecoin issuer Circle Internet Group (CRCL) priced a further upsized offering above the raised range to raise $1.1 billion at a $7.9 billion market cap. Circle’s US dollar-denominated payment stablecoin USDC is the #2 ranking stablecoin, holding nearly one-third of the market. The company is poised to benefit from tailwinds in the crypto space, as well as pending legislation that will provide regulatory clarity. It will likely face obstacles like declining rates and high distribution costs, but public investors were eager to dive in, with the company soaring 168% on day one. Circle traded up further from there to finish the week with a 247% gain.

Chronic care management platform Omada Health (OMDA) priced the midpoint to raise $150 million at a $1.2 billion market cap. Originally focused solely on diabetes prevention and weight health, Omada now offers various cardiometabolic programs, a physical therapy program, GLP-1 Care Tracks, and behavioral health support. The company has demonstrated growth and retention, though growing popularity of GLP-1 therapies could threaten its cardiometabolic offerings. Omada finished up 21%.
