After IPO, Figma Stock Pops More than 200% in Wall Street Debut - San Francisco Business Times

NEW YORK, US, JUL 31 – Figma's IPO shares jumped 250%, raising the company’s market value to nearly $68 billion and boosting venture capital holdings to $24 billion, driven by strong market demand.

  • Shares of Figma Inc. soared 250% in their first trading session on Thursday, July 31, 2025, with four VCs holding roughly $24 billion of stock.
  • Analysts at Charles Schwab attribute the revived IPO market this year to AI-driven tech firms and strong investor demand, following a slow period since late 2021.
  • In a series of blog posts, VCs praised Figma's focus on product, community and craft, with Danny Rimer noting 'Dylan remained his usual grounded, transparent self,' after the failed acquisition.
  • Other investors have also reaped windfalls as the IPO windfall made CEO Dylan Field’s net worth at least $1.8 billion, with Circle and CoreWeave reaching market caps of $41 billion and $56 billion.
  • Market observers say Lynn Martin told CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street” the Figma offering "will open the floodgates" for IPO activity.
