Gravitics Cuts Its Nasdaq IPO by 60% to $50 Million

Gravitics Holdings cut the size of its initial public offering on the Nasdaq stock exchange by 60%, intending to raise only $50 million instead of the larger amount it had previously targeted.

The offering will consist of 3.2 million shares priced between $14 and $17, down from 8.1 million shares in the previous plan, representing a 60% reduction in proceeds at the midpoint of the price range.

The target price implies a fully diluted valuation of approximately $621 million, with the company listing on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "GVTX" through a merger with an over-the-counter listed company, Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems.

Lucid Capital Markets is acting as the sole bookrunner.
