Kymera, rais­ing $173M+, be­comes the 48th biotech IPO of the year as 2020 sur­pass­es 2019

Yet an­oth­er biotech will hit Nas­daq on Fri­day, and this one marks a mile­stone for 2020.

Cam­bridge, MA-based Kymera has priced its IPO, an­nounc­ing a pub­lic price of $20 per share and $173.7 mil­lion raise. That’s up­sized from an ini­tial range of $16 to $18 per share, and would give the com­pa­ny a mar­ket val­ue north of $900 mil­lion.

The an­nounce­ment marks the 48th biotech IPO to go pub­lic this year, sur­pass­ing the to­tal from all of 2019, ac­cord­ing to in­vest­ment an­a­lyst Brad Lon­car. Kymera’s tick­er will be $KYMR.
