IPO Spotlight: 

The 2025 offering market started slowly, as tariffs and geopolitical uncertainty dominated the news cycle. In May, our Capital Markets and Securities team advised a stable and growing insurance company on its IPO, helping to thaw the IPO market for other issuers and leading to a strong summer in capital markets. The IPO market window remained open until the government shutdown stalled offerings at the beginning of October. The day before the shutdown, Haynes Boone helped an AI hyperscaler navigate unpredictable market dynamics and price an ambitious IPO on the Nasdaq and the London Stock Exchange.

Our team represented American Integrity Insurance Group, a prominent Florida-based property and casualty insurance provider, in its IPO of an aggregate of $126.5 million in common stock. The company sold 6.25 million shares of common stock at $16 per share, and existing shareholders sold an additional 1,656,250 shares, for total proceeds of $126.5 million. American Integrity’s common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol AII on May 8.

This offering was completed at a time when the U.S. capital markets were frozen, breaking through the market uncertainty caused by inflation and tariffs, and we moved quickly once the market cracked open. This is an excellent example of our work with issuer clients across the U.S., making us a truly global practice when paired with our work in Europe and Africa. It also highlights the value to clients of our strong compliance offering in highly regulated sectors, such as insurance.

Our team later represented Fermi America, an energy company cofounded by former U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry and CEO Toby Neugebauer, in its IPO, which values the company at $13.8 billion. The company is structured as a real estate investment trust (REIT), reflecting the income-generating nature of its large-scale data infrastructure. The historic transaction marks the first time this century that a company has launched an IPO with a simultaneous dual listing on both the Nasdaq (Oct. 1) and the London Stock Exchange (Oct. 2). The Haynes Boone team worked tirelessly to accelerate the transaction timeline and price on the last day of the IPO window, on the eve of the government shutdown.
