Oura's filing shows nine-month revenue up 74% to $1.21 billion and membership revenue up 121% to $240.5 million, with net income of $60.8 million. Bloomberg's $16 billion valuation target and the Nasdaq listing under OURA support demand for the stock, though no share count or price range is set and a $924.3 million loss from a preferred-stock buyback clouds headline earnings.

What will Oura's IPO valuation depend on?

With no share count or price range set, the final valuation depends on investor demand; Bloomberg's $16 billion target is based on revenue momentum and subscriber growth, not a settled price.

Why did Oura report a loss despite positive net income?

Oura reported $60.8 million in net income but a $924.3 million loss attributable to common shareholders, driven by a $1.09 billion buyback of preferred stock from early backers.

How does Oura's subscription model affect its IPO story?

Membership revenue rose 121% to $240.5 million and paid members doubled to 5 million, giving Oura recurring software-like revenue on top of hardware sales. The open question is whether the market awards a software multiple to a hardware company.
