Lemonade will list its shares on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “LMND.”
The IPO values Lemonade at around $1.6 billion – less than the $2.1 billion it was valued at in 2019 after it raised $300 million in a funding round led by Japanese conglomerate SoftBank. Other notable participants in that funding round included Allianz SE and GV – Alphabet Inc’s venture capital arm.
SoftBank owns a 27.3% stake in Lemonade.
