Rothschild and the Australian Private Equity & Venture Capital Association have produced a report which shows that IPOs backed by private equity firms underperformed the broader IPO market in 2016. The former delivered an average share price gain of 2.8 per cent, compared with a gain of 10.5 per cent for other floats. However, there were just five private equity-backed IPOs in Australian during the calendar year, and analysis shows that such IPOs have outperformed since 2013.
