Block (Square) Priced, NYSE: XYZ

Mobile payment service provider for small businesses.

Industry: Technology

First Day Return: +45.2%

We started Square in February 2009 to enable anyone with a mobile device to accept card payments, anywhere, anytime. While we found early success providing easy access to card payments, commerce extends beyond payments. In every transaction, we see opportunity for our sellers: to learn more about which products are selling best, to reinvest in their businesses, or to create and engage loyal buyers. Although we currently generate approximately 95% of our revenue from payments and point-of-sale (POS) services, we have extended our product and service offerings to include financial services and marketing services, all to help sellers start, run, and grow their businesses.
