Four initial public offerings (IPOs) are on the calendar for the coming week, aiming for a combined total of $1 billion in funding. Last week there were two IPOs, neither of which produced a positive pop after pricing below the midpoint of their expected ranges.

J. Jill Inc. (NYSE: JILL), a women’s apparel brand, priced at $13, below the expected range of $14 to $16, and raised $152 million (100% from insider sales). IT products reseller Presidio Inc. (NASDAQ: PSDO) priced at the low end of its expected range of $14 to $16 and raised $233 million.

Through the week ending March 10, IPO ETF manager Renaissance Capital reported that 19 IPOs have priced in the United States so far this year, up 280% year over year. Total proceeds raised through last week equaled $8.6 billion. For 2016, Renaissance Capital reported a total of 105 IPOs, down 38% year over year from 170 in 2015. Total 2016 proceeds amounted to $18.8 billion, compared with a 2015 total of $30 billion. Renaissance Capital does not include “best efforts” or blank-check companies in its totals, nor does it include IPOs that raise less than $10 million.
