PROPERTY listing platform PropertyGuru debuted on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) at US$8.61 on Friday (Mar 18), and then fell US$0.82 or 9.5 per cent to a low of US$7.79 within an hour after trading began.
The listing, which counts as another Singapore unicorn delivering an exit to investors after similar moves by Grab and Sea, follows an aborted listing attempt on the Australian Securities Exchange in 2019. PropertyGuru was founded 15 years ago by Steve Mulhuish and Jani Rautiainen. It listed via a business combination with special-purpose acquisition company (SPAC) Bridgetown 2, which is backed by billionaires Peter Thiel and Richard Li.
