Toast IPO

edit

Toast, Inc. has entered an S-1 Filing with the Securities Exchange Commission (Toast, Inc IPO Investment Prospectus S-1 (sec.report)) to begin the process of an IPO. Reports from Bloomberg (Toast Files for IPO; Restaurant Ordering Firm Seeking $20 Billion Valuation - Bloomberg) and Forbes (3 Reasons To Invest In Toast’s $20B IPO (forbes.com)) show Toast is seeking a 20 billion USD valuation. Now that a prospectus has been filed, a ticker symbol has been announced and the company has stated which exchange they'd be trading on, I think it might be worth mentioning in the article. I could be completely off-base here, which is why I'm putting this here rather than just making the sweeping edit.

I do think it's worth mentioning in the article. However, that Forbes article is actually by a contributor and thus not a reliable source, so we shouldn't use it. The Bloomberg article would be a good source for the article though, and we could link the S-1 in a new External Links section. Gbear605 (talk) 16:15, 3 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
That's totally fair. I don't feel qualified to make the changes as I am a former employee, so I may not be able to keep up Wikipedia's standards of objectivity in this case.

This article claims that the company was created in 2020, and the company also won some thing in 2016.

@GodOfNonTyranna: Per the article, the company was created in 2012. It's the IPO that happened in 2020. —C.Fred (talk) 12:52, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
