Ryde to launch $200m IPO

The riding app has appointed SAC Capital as financial advisor for the IPO to be listed through Catalist.

Singapore riding app Ryde is preparing to launch a $200m valuation through an initial public offering (IPO) slated for 2022.

The IPO will be listed through SGX’s Catalist. The company has appointed SAC Capital as financial advisor for the IPO.

The IPO is part of Ryde’s preparation to capture 30% of the ride-hailing market in Singapore by 2023. Part of the IPO could include plans for its top drivers to receive bonuses and shares upon completion.

Ryde achieved record growth in revenues and turned profitable in Q4 2020. The company saw over 30% YoY growth of users on its platform in the last quarter of 2020, underscoring a shift in consumer sentiments and preferences for an alternative ride-hailing option in Singapore.

Ryde presently counts over 10,000 monthly active drivers in their network and has facilitated over 16 million bookings in its app.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
