Pershing Square IPO began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on April 29, 2026, listing two linked vehicles under the PSUS and PS tickers and bringing Bill Ackman's pooled-capital investment structure to public markets.

The combined IPO raised $5 billion in gross proceeds to Pershing Square USA, Ltd. before sales loads, placement fees, and offering expenses, according to the company’s April 28 press release. The shares were priced at the low end of a reported $10 billion target.

Pershing Square USA, Ltd. common shares sold for $50 each. Buyers received one share of Pershing Square Inc. for every five shares of the closed-end vehicle. The transaction included a $2.8 billion private placement from pre-committed large investors. These unregistered shares under the Securities Act of 1933 are expected to close concurrently on April 30, subject to customary conditions.

More than 85% of orders came from institutional investors. The syndicate was led by Citigroup, UBS, Bank of America, Jefferies, and Wells Fargo as global coordinators and bookrunners.
