SVMK, or SurveyMonkey, has filed an S-1 form with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for its initial public offering (IPO). No pricing details were given in the filing, although the offering is valued up to $100 million, but this number is usually just a placeholder. The company intends to list its shares on the Nasdaq under the symbol SVMK.
Note that the company reportedly had filed confidentially with the SEC back in June.
The underwriters for the offering are JPMorgan, Allen, Merrill Lynch, Credit Suisse, UBS Investment Bank, Wells Fargo, SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, CODE Advisors, Foros, JMP Securities and LionTree.
