Survey of IPOs in Canada

View this page in: Français

The survey tracks Initial Public Offering (IPO) activity on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) and the TSX Venture Exchange and is updated quarterly.

Key survey findings

The PwC survey showed a single $25 million issue on the TSX in the fourth quarter and a reduction in activity on the TSX Venture exchange generated just $52 million from 10 new issues on all Canadian exchanges in the final three months of 2011. In the same period in 2010, 31 IPOs generated $1.2 billion in new equity.

Despite a mid-year growth spurt, 2011 saw the total number and value of IPOs decline vs 2010. The 61 new issues on all Canadian exchanges in 2011 generated just over $2 billion compared to 73 IPOs worth more than $5.5 billion the previous year.
