Rights offerings). CMG data points to North America as the most active global region in deal volume with $25.1bn raised via 139 transactions.

Savers Value Village, Inc. (SVV) was the largest U.S. IPO in June and July at $461.4M – posting an impressive 37.6% offer-to-open according to CMG data. However, Cava Group (CAVA) recorded the largest offer-to-open pop of 91%. This $365.4M offering was led by J.P. Morgan.
Interestingly, there were four consumer cyclical U.S. IPOs over the summer (CTNT, SVV, GENK, CAVA) and all four performed markedly well into the close of their first trading day. Two of the four (SVV, CAVA) priced above their initial IPO range, signaling that Wall St. may be comfortable betting on consumer resiliency. The below graphic highlights the average performance of those four U.S. consumer IPOs.
