Singapore unicorn SEA could bag $850m in IPO

The Tencent-backed firm raised its share price to $15.

Bloomberg reports that Singapore’s Sea Ltd. plans to price shares at $15 in its initial public offering and raise more than $850m, according to people familiar with the matter.

The total amount may be more than $1b if an option to sell additional shares is exercised, said one of the people, asking not to be identified because the matter is private.

The games company, backed by China’s Tencent Holdings Ltd., raised the price from its initial range of $12 to $14 for each share. It also increased the number of shares to be sold.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
