Bending Spoons surges nearly 40% in IPO
Bangkok Post
|July 03, 2026
Bending Spoons shares closed nearly 40% higher in their US market debut on Wednesday, as investors bought into the Italian firm’s model of buying and revamping struggling technology companies.
The Milan-based company’s shares opened at $31 apiece and closed at $40.50, giving the firm a market value of $25.7 billion.
The listing adds to signs of a broadening recovery in the US IPO market and serves as a gauge of investor appetite for software companies after the industry was hammered earlier this year by fears that AI could disrupt established business models.
Software companies have been largely absent from the US IPO market in 2026, even as a steady flow of large deals and SpaceX’s blockbuster listing pushed second-quarter proceeds past a record-breaking $100 billion.
