Not every IPO has rewarded investors.

The divergence underscores that strong subscription numbers or listing-day gains do not necessarily translate into sustained long-term returns.
The trend is consistent with findings from Pantomath Group’s Primary Pulse 2025 report, which showed that IPO performance is increasingly linked to business quality, earnings visibility and execution rather than issue size or market hype. While the report found that several companies delivered returns of 60% to 130%, it also noted that investors are rewarding scalable business models and sound corporate governance over speculative momentum.
For investors, the takeaway is clear. IPOs remain a powerful avenue for long-term wealth creation, but selecting companies with strong fundamentals, sustainable growth prospects and reasonable valuations is more important than chasing oversubscribed issues or listing-day premiums. As the performance of 2026 IPOs shows, disciplined stock selection continues to be the biggest driver of wealth creation in the primary market.
