Delivery company planned to raise $3.4 billion as it revised pricing upward
DoorDash Inc., the online restaurant delivery service, made its debut on the New York Stock Exchange Wednesday, closing up more than 85% at $189.51 a share.
San Francisco-based DoorDash on Tuesday said it planned to raise $3.4 billion in an offering of 33 million shares at $102 each, up from its revised range of $90 to $95 a share.
The company had originally filed its initial public offering for the same number of shares at a range of $75 to $85. At pricing, DoorDash commands a fully diluted market value of about $38.2 billion, 28% higher than originally anticipated.
The company was trading under the ticker symbol DASH on the New York Stock Exchange.
The IPO marked a year that saw third-party delivery companies, including publicly traded Grubhub and Uber Inc.’s UberEats, benefit greatly from increased demand for the services amid the lockdowns, quarantines and other restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic, which was declared in March.
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and J.P. Morgan were lead book-running managers for the offering.
DoorDash, founded in 2013, offers delivery services in more than 4,000 cities and all 50 states across the United States, Canada and Australia.
