New French software champion listing on Euronext, Planisware joins the Euronext Tech Leaders segment
Euronext congratulates Planisware, a leading business-to-business (“B2B”) provider of Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) in the rapidly growing Project Economy, on its listing on Compartment A of Euronext’s regulated market in Paris (ticker code: PLNW).
Founded in France in 1996, Planisware has established itself as a leader in the field of project management software, today providing new-generation cloud-based solutions, serving around 545 customers in over 30 countries in Europe, North America and Asia. Planisware enables organisations to plan, optimise and manage their projects and project portfolios, while fostering cross-functional team collaboration, thereby accelerating on-time and on-budget programme completion, release of products and services, and value-stream alignment. With its IPO, Planisware aims to further strengthen its position across strategic markets by increasing its market visibility and brand awareness.
Planisware was listed through the admission to trading on 18 April of 69,391,000 ordinary shares making up its equity. The transaction was carried out through a Global Offering via private placement to institutional investors inside and outside of France for an amount of approximately €241 million, which could potentially be increased to €278 million with the full exercise of the over-allotment option.
The admission and issue price of Planisware shares was set at €16 per share. Market capitalisation was approximately €1.1 billion on the day of listing.
With today’s listing, Planisware has also joined Euronext Tech Leaders. The Euronext Tech Leaders segment comprises 119 tech companies listed on Euronext that are leaders in their field of activity or that demonstrate a very strong growth trajectory. As part of the segment, Planisware will benefit from an extended range of services, increased visibility and access to Europe's rich technology ecosystem.
Pierre Demonsant, Co-founder and Chairman of Planisware, commented: "Planisware's successful IPO validates the relevance of our strategy and rewards the commitment of our teams since our creation in 1996. Above all, it marks the start of a new page in Planisware’s history. We are convinced that our vision, our role as accelerator of the Project Economy, and our track record of strong profitable growth, will give us the means to achieve our ambition: to be the number one provider of multi-specialty project and portfolio management software solutions. I would like to thank our historic shareholder Ardian, who has been by our side from the outset, and who has fully played its role as a committed shareholder in the first phase of our development."
