European activity was relatively low during the past summer months. Global IPO money raised was $69.2bn via 24 deals in the third quarter of 214, compared to $28.4bn via 18 deals in the third quarter of 213. Largest IPO on record executed on NYSE Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group raised $25.bn on NYSE in September and became the largest IPO on record after the over-allotment option was exercised, ahead of Agricultural Bank of China s $22.1bn IPO in July 21. On its first trading day, Alibaba shares opened 36.3% above the offer price, marking the most positive opening on record of an IPO larger than $1bn. European IPO activity suffered from summer lull, but is ahead of Q3 213 After buoyant conditions throughout H1 214, the European markets suffered the effects of summer lull. Nonetheless, in terms of number of transactions and money raised European IPO activity for Q3 214 ($7.8bn from 36 IPOs) significantly outperformed Q3 213 ($3.8bn from 24 IPOs). Boosted by European Financials. global FO activity outpaced Q3 213 Global FO activity was at a healthy level during Q3 214 and compared to last year the number of deals outpaced Q3 213 by 4% while the total amount of money raised was 24% higher. Eleven out of the top twenty largest FOs in 214 YTD globally were executed in Europe. Number of companies coming to the market expected to remain strong Continued strength in the equities markets, positive post-ipo performances and decreased market volatility are expected to support robust IPO momentum for the remainder of 214 and into 2. 3 2 1 4 3 2 1 Money raised in Europe indexed on 1 year average IPO (1 = $4.6bn) 4 491 147 136 127 81 366 19 86 Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep 214 143 24 Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep 214 1 FO (1 = $.3bn) 4 3 2 1 4 3 2 1 13 128 195 148 Monthly averages ($bn) 125 6 119 13 18 118 Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep 214 6 Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep 214 Money raised in Europe indexed on same month average (1 yr) IPO -76-14 FO +5 The above June IPO index level of -76 implies an amount of money raised in Europe, which is 76% below the 1-year average Monthly averages ($bn) +18 Note: The two indices on top are based on the 1Y rolling monthly average capital raised in European IPOs ($4.6bn) and FOs ($.3bn).

IPOs and FOs in leading capital market regions Overview Global Trends European Trends Case Studies Highlights General trends All eyes in North America were on the IPO of Alibaba. Upon exercising the overallotment option as a result of the overwhelming demand from global investors, Alibaba secured its place as the world s largest-ever stock market flotation.

The IPO of meat processor WH Group ($2.4bn on HKEx) was the largest of 14 IPOs in Q3 in Asia, raising a combined total of $11.3bn (Q3 213: $6.9bn via 66 IPOs).

On a combined basis, $47.4bn was raised via 36 IPOs and 133 FOs in Q3 in Europe (Q3 213: $34.2bn was raised via 24 IPOs and 124 FOs).

Share price ($) Case Study: The IPO of Alibaba on NYSE Overview Global Trends European Trends Case Study Transaction highlights On 19 September 214, the Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding launched its record-breaking IPO on the New York Stock Exchange. The company priced at the top end of its adjusted filing range of $66.-$68.. Its shares opened at $92.7, 36.3% higher than the offering price. The successful Alibaba offering is considered a positive development for other companies looking for opportunities in equity market and a good sign of investor confidence. Alibaba Group provides internet infrastructure, e-commerce (both B2B and C2C) and online financial service worldwide. Its B2B web portal, Taobao.com, is among the world s top 2 most visited websites. Post IPO, the company envisages to acquire stakes in American start-ups specialized in mobile and ecommerce. Alibaba officially filed with the SEC in May 214, setting an initial filing range of $6. to $66.. Its IPO was then delayed once due to the massive demand, as investors projected the company would hit the market in early August. To cover strong investor demands, bankers exercised the over-allotment option and issued an additional 48 million shares, which boosted the proceeds from $21.8bn to $25.bn, and made the Alibaba debut the largest IPO in history. After the first trading day, the company s market value reached about $231bn, higher than companies such as Facebook or Amazon. Alibaba would be the 11th biggest company in the S&P 5, if it would have been included in the index. Alibaba s business soared ahead of IPO, as revenue in the first 2 quarters of 214 increased 38.7% and 46.% respectively. Yahoo sold part of its 22% stake in Alibaba the night before the offering, which results in a falling of 5.6% in price, although Alibaba s price jumped 38.1%.
