The Big Winners of eToro IPO: Who’s Set to Gain the Most?

eToro is preparing to go public at a valuation between $3.7 billion and $4 billion. Up to $500 million worth of shares will be offered, with the company itself receiving half of that amount (before costs and fees). The remaining shares will be sold by existing shareholders—mostly close friends and family of the founders. So, who will gain the most from the listing? Who will walk away with the biggest payout? According to a recent F-1 filing, eToro plans to offer 10 million Class A shares at a price range of $46 to $50. Half of these shares (5 million) will be newly issued by the company, while the other half will come from existing shareholders.
