IPOX® Research Associate Lukas Muehlbauer was quoted in Reuters on ITG’s Nasdaq debut, saying: “The current buzz around the AI and data center theme helped ITG to go public, with investors still looking for companies that can benefit from the rising demand around digital infrastructure.” Reuters reported that ITG shares rose 12.5%, valuing the Oaktree-backed digital infrastructure company at $2.18 billion and highlighting investor demand for companies tied to AI infrastructure.

IPOX® Associate Muehlbauer commented on the debut of mobility firm Lime in Reuters. The Uber-backed e-scooter and bike operator opened above its $25 IPO price, valuing the company at about $1.73 billion. Muehlbauer said the pricing and first-day trading indicated sufficient investor demand, though the reception appeared measured. He added that Lime must prove it can sustain growth through seasonal and market cycles without relying mainly on adding vehicles and capex in a competitive sector.

Reuters reported that Mexican silver miner Sinda fell 10% in its NYSE debut after raising $213 million in its U.S. IPO. IPOX® Research Associate Lukas Muehlbauer was quoted on the selective IPO window for mining firms, noting that pre-production miners face investor scrutiny because their value depends on long-term execution. He also highlighted Sinda’s “high-risk, high-reward profile,” citing its appealing location and experienced backing alongside the uncertainty of exploration-stage mining companies in the current market for metals producers and explorers.

Reuters featured IPOX® Associate Lukas Muehlbauer in two articles covering Doncasters’ U.S. IPO and NYSE debut. The aerospace parts maker raised $919.3 million after pricing above its marketed range, then opened 33.3% higher in its first trading session. Muehlbauer discussed Doncasters’ nearly 250-year heritage, post-2020 turnaround, revenue growth, and broader positioning across aerospace, defense, industrial gas turbines, and AI-linked power demand, noting that its investment story extends beyond a pure-play defense theme for Reuters readers following IPO markets closely.

IPOX CEO Josef Schuster commented on Safepoint’s decision to withdraw its planned U.S. listing, telling Reuters that the move appeared to reflect company-specific factors rather than weakness in the broader IPO market. The Florida insurer had sought to raise up to $283.3 million after launching its IPO in May. Reuters noted that the withdrawal came as the IPO market continued to regain momentum, with several Florida-based insurers already completing New York listings in 2025, following recent reforms in Florida’s market.
