SendGrid IPO
SendGrid was a cloud-based email delivery service that provided transactional and marketing email services to businesses and developers. The company offered APIs and tools for sending, receiving, and tracking emails at scale. SendGrid went public in 2017 but was later acquired by Twilio in 2018, making it no longer available as an independent public company.
What We Know
SendGrid completed its IPO in November 2017, pricing shares at $16 and beginning trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SEND. However, the company's time as an independent public entity was short-lived, as Twilio announced its acquisition of SendGrid in October 2018 for approximately $3 billion. The acquisition was completed in February 2019, with Twilio integrating SendGrid's email capabilities into its broader communications platform. SendGrid shareholders received Twilio stock as part of the all-stock transaction, effectively ending SendGrid's existence as a separate publicly traded company.
