The best stock market listings in 2019


NASDAQ LEADS IPOs IN 2019.


Nasdaq welcomed 97 IPOs in the first half of 2019 including Lyft, Zoom and CrowdStrike. We maintained our strong track record in VC-backed listings, with a win rate of 88%. Win rates for healthcare, financials and technology were 97%, 78%, and 55%, respectively. It seems there is a never-ending appetite for new companies to IPO in the Swedish capital Stockholm.

Nasdaq has a diverse selection of approximately 4,000 total listings with a market value of approximately $15 trillion USD choose to list on Nasdaq’s U.S., Nordic and Baltic exchanges, representing industries such as retail, health care, finance and technology.

For small and medium sized growth companies, Nasdaq offers access to financial markets through its European growth market, Nasdaq First North. But Nasdaq is home to more than just IPOs.

In 2018 about one-third of the newly listed companies on the Swedish marketplaces have generally done well. Smoltek did the best with an increase of 232 percent.

Of last year's companies floating, 32 percent have rising stock prices, according to the news agency Direkt. The best among newcomers has been the nanotechnology company Smoltek, the color technology company I-Tech, the wound care company S2 Medical and the hydrogen company Metacon with increases of over 100 percent each.

Below is a summary of how the 2018 new float's have done. The compilation refers to companies that were introduced on Nasdaq First North, NGM Nordic MTF and Spotlight Market in Stockholm. The price trend has been measured from the introductory offer until the 2018 last trading day.
