When does the lock-up end?

Its prospectus sets a lock-⁠up of 180 days; the day it ends is read from its final prospectus once it lists.

Does Breakaway rate Wella?

Breakaway scores a new stock from its second trading day, ranked against every US stock it scores. For its first 21 sessions the page says New listing in place of the tier, and each check that needs more history waits for it.

Can Breakaway say where Wella's price will go?

No. Breakaway does not say where a price will go. Every figure here is from the company's SEC filings, linked on each line.

Where every figure comes from.

  • Each company's SEC filings on EDGAR, read twice a day: its registration (Form S-1 or F-1), the amendment that sets its price range, and its final prospectus (424B4). The shares, the price, the underwriters, the lock-up, and the company's words are the filing's, linked on each line.
  • The expected day is Massive's IPO calendar's, the first trade the market data's, and the moves each stock's daily closes against its offer price.
  • The market cap is Breakaway's arithmetic: the shares the prospectus says will be outstanding after the offering, times the midpoint of the range or the offer price.
  • The Quality Score is Breakaway's, from a stock's second trading day; for its first 21 sessions it is marked New listing, and each check that needs more history waits for it.
  • Blank-check companies (SPACs) and unit offerings are left out and counted; a direct listing and a US listing of a company listed abroad are in and marked.
