Oddity Tech, the parent company of Israel’s make-up firm IL Makiage, is looking to hold an IPO. Oddity has applied to list its Class A ordinary shares on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the ticker symbol “ODD.” The number of shares to be offered and the price range for the proposed offering have not yet been determined. The offering is subject to market conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the offering may be completed, or as to the actual size or terms of the offering.
A little over two years ago, Oddity Tech sold off 9% of its shares in IL Makiage to investment funds including Fidelity and Franklin Templeton for $130 million. At the time, this left the firm with a valuation of $1.5 billion.
Oddity Tech is a consumer tech company that builds and scales digital-first brands to disrupt the offline-dominated beauty and wellness industries. The company serves over 40 million users with its AI-driven online platform, deploying data science to identify consumer needs, and developing solutions in the form of beauty and wellness products. ODDITY owns IL Makiage and SpoiledChild. The company operates with business headquarters in New York City, an R&D center in Tel Aviv, Israel, and a biotechnology lab in Boston.
