Affirm與潛在投資者討論其IPO路演后,其估值仍然有可能發(fā)生變化。該公司預(yù)計(jì)將于本月晚些時(shí)候上市。

根據(jù)Affirm向美國(guó)證券交易委員會(huì)提交的招股說(shuō)明書顯示,超過(guò)6500個(gè)商家使用Affirm平臺(tái)。Affirm的網(wǎng)站信息介紹,消費(fèi)者在選擇商品后,支付時(shí)可以選擇分期付款的還款期限,借款年利率從0%至30%不等。
據(jù)其提交的文件顯示,Affirm在2019至2020財(cái)年第三季度的凈虧損為1500萬(wàn)美元,營(yíng)收為1.74億美元,而上年同期的凈虧損為3100萬(wàn)美元,營(yíng)收為8800萬(wàn)美元。
該文件還顯示,到目前為止,互聯(lián)健身公司Peloton Interactive是Affirm最重要的商業(yè)合作伙伴,占其第三季度總收入的30%。第三季度,Peloton Interactive等前十大商家創(chuàng)造了Affirm收入的37%左右,所以失去其中任何一個(gè)合作伙伴,都有可能會(huì)對(duì)Affirm業(yè)務(wù)造成不利影響。

Affirm, which provides installment loans to online shoppers, is seeking to raise up to $934.8 million in an initial public offering, signaling last year’s record listings run is carrying over to 2021.
The San Francisco-based company said in a filing on January 5 that it planned to sell 24.6 million shares for $33 to $38 each. With the so-called green shoe shares, it is offering 28.2 million shares, the filing showed.
At the top of the range, Affirm would have a market value of $9.22 billion based on the outstanding shares listed in its filing. Including employee stock options and restricted share units, Affirm would have a valuation of more than $11 billion, the filing showed.
Its value could still change following discussions with potential investors on the roadshow for its IPO. The listing is expected later this month.
Affirm follows consumer technology companies including Airbnb. and DoorDash Inc. that propelled IPOs on U.S. exchanges last year to a record of more than $179 billion. Affirm had planned to go public in December but delays at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pushed back its listing, people familiar with the matter have told Bloomberg News.
More than 6,500 merchants use Affirm’s platform, according to its prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. After selecting their purchases, shoppers can choose a schedule for paying for them at an annual interest rate of 0% to 30%, according to Affirm’s website.
For the third quarter, Affirm had a net loss of $15 million on revenue of $174 million, compared with a loss of $31 million on revenue of $88 million during the same period in 2019, according to its filing.
Home exercise company Peloton Interactive was by far Affirm’s most important merchant partner, accounting for 30% of its total revenue in the third quarter. Its top 10 merchants including Peloton produced about 37% of Affirm’s revenue during the period, creating the risk its business could be adversely affected by the loss of any of those partners, according to the filing.
Affirm was founded in 2012 by Max Levchin, who also co-founded PayPal. Levchin is the company’s single biggest shareholder, according to the filing. Other large owners include Khosla Ventures, Founders Fund, Lightspeed Venture Partners and Shopify. The company said its Class B shares will carry 15 votes each, while the Class A shares sold in the IPO will have one vote each.
The offering is being led by Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs. and Allen & Co. Affirm plans to list its shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol AFRM.
