Madison Air Solutions Corp. has told potential investors that it anticipates pricing its initial public offering at the high end of the marketed range or even above that level, according to people familiar with the matter. The ventilation and filtration systems manufacturer is reportedly seeing demand well beyond expectations, with the IPO described as multiple times oversubscribed.
The company is offering 82.7 million shares within a proposed price range of $25 to $27 per share. Market participants cited in the report said the book has drawn sizable orders from long-only investors, and that more than 300 investors have placed orders for the shares.
Sources indicate the offering remains on track to price later Wednesday, and the shares are expected to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange using the ticker symbol "MAIR." Several large banks are working on the transaction, among them Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Barclays Plc, Jefferies Financial Group Inc., and Wells Fargo & Co.
The filings and guidance provided to investors suggest that Madison Air Solutions is positioning the deal to capture strong long-only demand ahead of a planned listing. While the company has indicated an expectation to price at the top or above the marketed range, that guidance reflects current plans and market interest rather than a finalized pricing action.
