Stripe’s February 2026 tender offer at a $159 billion post-money valuation underscores the company’s preference for private liquidity over a near-term IPO, with co-founders citing no rush amid robust payment volume growth to $1.9 trillion in 2025 and emerging profitability in its billing suite. This dynamic supports the closely matched implied probabilities across “no IPO by December 31, 2027” at 44% and higher-end market-cap buckets, as continued secondary sales reduce pressure for public listing while fintech sector multiples and Treasury yields influence timing. Key swing factors include any acceleration in revenue run-rate or regulatory clarity on digital payments that could reopen a 2027 window, versus sustained private valuation momentum that might push resolution beyond the deadline or into the $400 billion-plus range upon eventual entry.

If no such IPO occurs by December 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "No IPO by December 31, 2027".
Market capitalization expresses the monetary value of a company’s outstanding shares, stated in its pricing currency.
It is calculated as the total number of outstanding shares, multiplied by the official closing share price of the publicly traded class on the first trading day.
If necessary, to accurately capture the company’s total market capitalization, rather than a stock-class-specific market capitalization, the calculation will include all outstanding share classes and apply any stated conversion ratios to the publicly traded class. Where no conversion right exists, such shares will be counted at their stated outstanding amount without discount, unless official filings explicitly specify differently.
The number of outstanding shares will be determined from official company filings or disclosures (e.g., SEC filings). The closing share price on the first trading day will be determined from the primary exchange’s official listing page.
If the relevant value falls exactly between two brackets, this market will resolve to the higher range bracket.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official company filings and the primary exchange’s official listing page. The market capitalization will be determined through appropriate calculation using the total outstanding shares and the closing price from the first day of trading.
In the event of an interruption in the normal trading session on the specified company’s first day of trading (e.g., a circuit breaker or half-day), the market will resolve according to the official closing price of the abbreviated session. If no such official closing price is published, the market will resolve according to the next trading day on which an official closing price is published, treating that day as the first day of trading for the purposes of this market.
