Wayve eyes stake sale onLSE private market
Uber-backed Autonomous Vehicle group could become PISCES’ first major test case, despite being at an early stage commercially.
01
POTENTIAL TRANSACTION
Wayve is exploring a secondary share sale on the LSE’s PISCES platform, but Bloomberg says no final decision has been made and shareholder approval is still required.
02
STRONGLY FUNDED
The company raised $1.5bn in February at an $8.6bn valuation, with investors including SoftBank, Microsoft, Nvidia, Uber and major automotive groups; earlier investors and employees would clearly now like to cash in on the valuation increase.
03
HUGE OPPORTUNITY BUT EARLY COMMERCIALLY
Wayve has strong proof points on technology and testing, including more than 500 cities driven and planned London robotaxi trials with Uber, but its commercial revenue model seems to lack visibility and no public financials have been disclosed yet.
04
BUT IS IT THE RIGHT FIT FOR THE SEMI-PUBLIC MARKET?
PISCES is a lighter-disclosure, semi-public venue for private-company share trading; that makes it useful for liquidity, but arguably better suited today to higher-visibility private growth names than to a high-risk, pre-scale autonomy business.
