The $1.3 Billion Health-Tech IPO Everyone Missed--Until It Soared 21% on Day One

Omada Health (NASDAQ:OMDA) opened its first day of trading with a bangjumping 21% to $23 after pricing its IPO at $19. That move gives the digital chronic-care startup a market cap of roughly $1.3 billion. The $150 million raise was more than just well receivedinvestor demand came in more than 15x oversubscribed, with most allocations going to a concentrated group of institutional buyers. It's another sign that appetite for health-tech IPOs is heating up again. U.S. listings have raised nearly $25 billion year-to-date, and early-stage healthcare names are up an average of 18% since listing. Founded in 2011, Omada offers virtual care between doctor visitsfocused on diabetes, obesity, hypertension, and joint pain. What sets it apart? It's not chasing the GLP-1 gold rush. Instead, Omada supports people already on those drugs, helping them manage side effects, nutrition, and post-treatment maintenance. About 50,000 of its 679,000 members are on GLP-1s. CEO Sean Duffy told Bloomberg that while AI powers much of the back-end, real human interaction is what drives results. Our members tell us they want a personand I have yet to see anyone that feels accountable to ChatGPT, he said. Revenue for Q1 2025 came in just under $55 millionup from $35.1 million a year agowhile net losses narrowed by more than half to $9.4 million. That improving financial picture, combined with a clear niche in chronic care, could be what's drawing top-tier investors. Revelation Partners, Andreessen Horowitz, Fidelity, and USVP are all among the largest shareholders. The IPO was led by Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan. OMDA now trades on the Nasdaq Global Marketand it's one more sign that digital health might be staging a real comeback. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

Manitoba premier eyes northern development that could include a pipeline

WINNIPEG - Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew promoted his province Friday as the route for a future trade corridor, which could include a pipeline, in order to get goods from Western Canada to overseas markets. 'The politics are (that) something needs to get built in Western Canada. I think everybody understands that,' Kinew told a breakfast meeting of the Manitoba Chambers of Commerce. 'And if you've been following the news, B. C.? Ontario? Maybe. We'll see. But Manitoba's open for business, and I think in time Manitoba will show itself as a path to getting natural resources to tidewater across Canada.' The Alberta government has been pushing for a pipeline across northern British Columbia, but the idea is not supported by the B.C. government. Kinew said Manitoba is looking at boosting shipments through Hudson Bay, currently served by the Port of Churchill, which is ice-free for only a brief period every year. There have been calls for a second port on the bay, further south at Port Nelson, combined with more rail service and a pipeline, in order to boost exports to Europe and other destinations. Kinew said he's open to different options, but the private sector has to put forward ideas. A trade corridor could ship Manitoba's low-carbon hydroelectricity westward to the other Prairie provinces, he said. And a pipeline heading the other direction is a possibility. 'What is the product that makes sense? Are we going to be looking at liquefaction and then maybe it's a (liquefied natural gas) thing?' Kinew told reporters after his speech. 'Are we looking at oil and gas projects? Are we looking at something novel like green hydrogen or maybe a potash slurry? These are the things that we can signal to the private sector we're open to having a discussion about.' Pipeline development in the north could face opposition from environmentalists and others. Much of the area near the coast of Hudson Bay is protected, including Wapusk National Park. Kinew also told the business crowd Friday his NDP government is finalizing a memorandum with British Columbia to cut trade barriers between the two provinces. Similar to a recent deal with Ontario, it's aimed at allowing more goods and services to flow freely. Kinew said it will give Manitobans access to another big Canadian market. Prime Minister Mark Carney has pledged to break down internal trade barriers by Canada Day, and Ontario, Nova Scotia and other provinces have been working on reciprocal agreements.
