What we know about the DeLorean Motor Company IPO
The DeLorean Motor Company (DMC) is expected to go public, however, the date has not been announced. DMC is a Texas-based electric vehicle manufacturer that makes the car known for inspiring the iconic DeLorean time machine in the 1985 film Back to the Future.
CEO Joost de Vries confirmed that the company must go public to raise the funds needed to put DeLorean vehicles back on the market. The DeLorean Alpha5 sports car was revealed this year, the first of a lineup that could expand to include a sedan as well as a premium SUV, according to de Vries.
Details of the IPO, such as the timing, stock exchange, ticker symbol, size of the offering and expected share price, have not been announced. The DeLorean Motor Company has not yet filed a viewable prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
DMC is the successor of the original DeLorean Motor Company, founded by American auto executive John DeLorean in 1975. The company went bankrupt in 1982 after producing nearly 9,000 vehicles.
Stephen Wynne, a UK-born mechanic and DeLorean enthusiast, opened the existing company in 1995 and acquired the parts and rights to resume manufacturing the famed sports car.
A DeLorean IPO could signal a successful comeback for the auto brand after years of trying to penetrate the market. We'll keep this page updated as events unfold.
