Solar firm shares bring warmth to chilly IPO market

Shares of solar-tracking business Nextracker Inc soared 26% in their U.S. market debut on Thursday, suggesting that the IPO market was showing signs of emerging from a prolonged freeze.

Fremont, California-based Nextracker, a unit of Singapore’s Flex Ltd, saw its stock open at $30.31, above the company’s upsized initial public offering price of $24 a share.

“It’s yet another sign that the 2023 IPO market is thawing. So it’s a breath of fresh air,” said Matthew Kennedy, senior IPO market strategist at Renaissance Capital.
