Which Companies will officially announce an IPO this year?

For this event, an official announcement is a public, verifiable declaration that a company intends to pursue an IPO — typically a press release or a publicly available registration filing (for example, an S-1 that becomes public). Private or confidential regulatory filings that are not publicly disclosed generally do not count until the company or regulator makes the filing public.

Each outcome corresponds to a specific company selected by the market creator; the outcome resolves depending on whether that named company publicly announces an IPO within the defined calendar year. The list reflects names the market expects to be active in the current IPO pipeline, not an exhaustive universe of possible IPOs.

'This year' refers to the calendar year specified by the event listing (usually Jan 1–Dec 31 of the current year). Because the market close is TBD, trades may continue until the market operator sets a closing time; resolution will occur after the end of the calendar year when public announcements can be verified according to the market's resolution rules.

Resolution depends on the event definition: if a company becomes publicly listed through a SPAC merger or reverse takeover without a traditional registration filing, whether that counts will be determined by the market's stated criterion for an 'official IPO announcement.' In ambiguous cases (mergers, acquisitions, or materially changed transactions), the market operator will follow its resolution guidelines and public documentation to decide.

Confidential filings that are not publicly disclosed do not usually count as official announcements. Only public disclosure — an official press release or a registration statement made publicly available — is typically treated as an announcement for resolution. Leaks or unofficial reports may influence market prices but are not generally used as final verification.
