A fresh wave of nuclear stock listings is sweeping Wall Street as the explosive growth of data centers puts mounting pressure on electricity grids and reignites investor appetite for nuclear power. Joining this initial public offering (IPO) frenzy is nuclear stock Holtec Nuclear, which is gearing up for its public debut this month. The company plans to offer 50 million shares of Class A common stock at a price range of $15 to $18 per share, potentially raising up to $900 million and valuing the company at as much as $10.2 billion.
Holtec plans to list on the Nasdaq Global Select Market and Nasdaq Texas under the ticker symbol “HNUC” on Sept. 18. The underwriters also have a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 7.5 million shares. Leading the offering as joint lead book-running managers are J.P. Morgan, Guggenheim Securities, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and BofA Securities, while Morgan Stanley, Cantor, BMO Capital Markets, and Oppenheimer & Co. round out the group of joint book-running managers.
