Gymshark eyes potential IPO as valuation soars

Gymshark (4)

Gymshark founder Ben Francis and the brand’s private equity backers have started talks with banks and investors in advance of a potential IPO.

The sportswear giant is in discussion with institutional investors and investment banks over a potential float on the London Stock Exchange, just over a year after the brand hit a £1bn valuation, according to Sky News. 

Although any potential IPO is still in the discussion stages, a source told Sky that an announcement could be revealed in the coming months, with little idea of the size of any flotation.
