Lime IPO Filing: Uber-Backed Scooter Firm Eyes Public Market
8 May
Summary
- Lime, backed by Uber, has filed for a U.S. initial public offering.
- The company filed under the name Neutron Holdings with no offering terms.
- Lime plans to list on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "LIME".
Lime, a prominent operator of electric bike and scooter networks and a company supported by Uber Technologies, submitted its filing for an initial public offering in the United States on May 8, 2026. The San Francisco-based technology startup initiated the process without revealing the specific terms of the offering in its public documentation, filing under the corporate name Neutron Holdings.
The filing indicates a resurgence in the U.S. initial public offering market, which experienced a slowdown earlier in the year. This pause was attributed to volatile equity markets and geopolitical events. However, investor enthusiasm is reportedly growing, prompting various sectors to seek public listings.
Several companies in sectors such as AI infrastructure, defense technology, and biotechnology have recently filed for stock market debuts. This suggests a considerable pent-up demand within the IPO market. Lime has selected Nasdaq as its intended listing exchange, planning to trade under the ticker symbol "LIME". Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan are among the financial institutions involved as underwriters for this offering.
