The closely-followed IPO of TPG Partners LLC is expected to set the stage for an upswing in private equity public listings this year, considering the sharp increase in buyout deals. The Texas-based firm, a market leader in alternative asset management, is preparing for an initial public offering that is expected to lift its market capitalization to $9.5 billion.

34 Mln Shares

The company in a regulatory filing this week revealed plans to offer around 33,900,000 shares, which includes 5,589,806 shares offered by an existing shareholder. The estimated offer price is between $28 and $31 per share. After obtaining the required regulatory sanction, the stock will start trading on the Nasdaq stock market under the ticker symbol TPG.

The lead underwriters of the offering are J.P.Morgan, Goldman Sachs & Co., Morgan Stanley, and TPG Capital BD. A major portion of the funds raised through the offering will be used for acquiring partnership interests in TPG Partners, from other investors. The other priorities include expanding into new geographical regions and diversifying into new businesses, besides ramping up overall operations.

The Market

Favorable interest rates and a booming buyout industry –thanks to the ongoing economic recovery from the pandemic — are brightening the prospects of the private equity industry. When it comes to the timing of the IPO, the positive market environment seems to have influenced the company, which has been building investor confidence ever since suffering a setback during the financial crisis.
