IPO activity is rebounding as markets recover from disruptions caused by the government shutdown and tariff concerns. Cardinal Infrastructure Group Inc., a full-service infrastructure services provider, this week revealed details of its upcoming IPO. The company is preparing to offer about 11.5 million shares at a price range of $20 per share to $22 per share. The estimated valuation is $805 million.
To List on NASDAQ
The company has applied to list the stock on the Nasdaq stock market under the symbol CDNL. The bookrunning managers in the IPO are Stifel and William Blair.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the company reported revenues of $310.2 million, compared to $230.3 million in the corresponding quarter last year.
