27th November 2015: ESM tenth anniversary sees over €7 billion in new capital has been raised since 2005 by listed companies. The ESM now counts 27 member companies – up from 8 at inception – across the pharmaceutical, tourism, financial services, technology, manufacturing, exploration, construction, business support services and retail sectors. |
Recent new listings on the ESM include: Malin Corporation – raised €330m in one of Europe’s largest life sciences IPOs; Dalata Hotel Group – who raised €265m, with a further €210m post-IPO; Mainstay Medical raised €90m; Applegreen, which raised €70 million.
Speaking at the launch of the new ESM Guide, ISE Chief Executive Deirdre Somers said:
“An ESM listing offers these companies access to a deep pool of investors located throughout the world. It also offers the support of a vibrant Irish ecosystem of brokers, analysts and advisors to help them get the capital and the profile they need to grow. We look forward to welcoming many more success stories to the ESM in the coming years and would encourage companies considering a listing to join our successful #IPOready programme which will support them on their journey to the public markets.”
Pat McCann, Chief Executive of Dalata Hotel Group plc, said: “Our ESM listing has allowed us to grow our business and turn our ambitions into reality. We were delighted to raise €265m from our IPO last year and to follow this up with two further successful fundraisings amounting to €210m in 2015.” John Given, Chairman of Malin Corporation plc, said:
"We listed exclusively on the ESM as it is an ideal exchange for our Irish, European and global investor base who participated in our IPO and who share our long term vision for Malin.”
