The quantum computing company Quantinuum, a subsidiary of Honeywell, is planning to increase the size of its upcoming U.S. initial public offering, targeting a maximum valuation of $14.3 billion. This move underscores the intense investor enthusiasm currently surrounding the quantum computing sector.
The company, headquartered in Broomfield, Colorado, announced on Monday its intention to offer 26.5 million shares, with a price range set between $53 and $55 per share. This could raise up to $1.46 billion.
This represents an increase from its previous plan, which involved issuing approximately 21.1 million shares at a price range of $45 to $50 per share, aiming for a maximum raise of $1.05 billion.
Several companies are capitalizing on the favorable market conditions to advance their listings, seeking to complete their fundraising before the highly anticipated IPO of SpaceX. The U.S. IPO market has had a strong start in June, with seven companies from sectors including defense and energy set to finalize their offering prices this week.
J.P. Morgan and Morgan Stanley are serving as the joint lead underwriters for this offering.
Quantinuum is expected to begin trading on the Nasdaq exchange this Thursday under the ticker symbol QNT.
