Wellington Asset Management review details of expected Porsche IPO
German sports car manufacturer Porsche is in talks to debut on the stock market in 2022. Porsche AG is a German automotive company specialising in high-performance sport cars, as well as SUVs and sedans. It's controlled by parent company Volkswagen Group, which is the largest automaker in Europe.
HAMBURG, Germany - June 14, 2022 - PRLog -- When is the Porsche IPO?
The initial public offering (IPO) of Porsche AG could happen as early as the fourth quarter of 2022, although the timing will depend on market conditions. The Financial Times reported in February that Volkswagen, the current owner of Porsche AG, was forced to rush out a statement about the IPO plans in order to satisfy market disclosure rules.
Who owns Porsche AG?
Porsche AG is owned by Volkswagen Group. The two companies have worked together since the 1960s and Volkswagen acquired a 49.9% stake in Porsche AG in 2009 before buying the rest of the business a few years later.
What do we know about the Porsche IPO?
Volkswagen has said it plans to divide the stock of Porsche AG – half into ordinary shares and the other half in preference shares. Up to 25% of the preference shares will be listed as part of the IPO. While the ordinary shares will have voting rights, the preference shares will not. The ordinary shares will not be listed and will remain in the hands of Volkswagen. This is important as any interested investors must understand that Porsche AG will remain firmly under the control of both Volkswagen and Porsche SE.
Porsche's valuation in 2022
The automaker's valuation has been estimated at around €90bn ($102bn) by various analysts. Upon initial announcement of the IPO, shares in VW and Porsche SE jumped by 10.2% and 15.2%, suggesting that investors may expect Porsche's brand value to increase in the long term, along with its parent companies.
