eToro Plans U.S. IPO After Market Uncertainty Delayed Plans

eToro Group Ltd is getting ready to finally go public in the U.S., after putting its plans on hold last month. The Israeli trading platform had hit the brakes on its U.S. initial public offering (IPO) in April due to market chaos caused by Donald Trump’s new tariff policy. However, the trading and investment platform is ready to move forward with its plans, now that global macroeconomics and market conditions are improving. eToro Delays IPO Due to Market Uncertainty eToro wanted to go public in late March and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to start the process. Other big companies like JPMorgan, Binance, and Gemini are also planning to go public. However, President Trump announced new tariffs shortly after, which made the markets unstable, causing eToro to halt its plans. At the same time, other companies were also putting IPO plans on hold due to market worries. Now that the markets are calming down, and stocks like Robinhood have increased by more than 16% in the past month, eToro feels it is a better time to start its plans. The company says it may go public as soon as next week. eToro Sees Stronger Financial Results in 2024 Founded in 2007, eToro allows users to trade stocks and cryptocurrencies and copy the portfolios of successful investors. The company had planned to go public through a SPAC deal with a value of $10.4 billion, but that plan failed. This time, eToro’s business results are much better. In 2024, it earned $931 million in commissions and $192 million in profit. This is a big improvement from 2023, when it earned $639 million in commissions and only $15.3 million in profit. Details of the eToro’s IPO Offering and Overall Market Outlook eToro revealed that the IPO will be backed by major banks, including Goldman Sachs , Jefferies, UBS, and Citigroup. The investment platform plans to trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “ETOR.” The company aims to raise its valuation above the $3.5 billion it achieved in 2023 . This funding round was backed by SoftBank Vision Fund 2 and ION Group. eToro recently agreed to pay the SEC a $1.5 million fine and limit some of its crypto services in the U.S. to settle charges for offering brokerage services without a license. eToro believes the improved overall crypto market is a good sign to proceed with its IPO plans. Bitcoin (BTC) ‘s market price is now almost $100,000, which has renewed investors’ interest. Many believe crypto rules will be more relaxed with President Trump in office.
