Stockbrokers Morgans and RBC Capital Markets blasted terms to fund managers on Thursday morning.
The terms said MyDeal, an online retail marketplace selling household goods, would seek to raise $40 million at $1 a share for a $258.8 million indicative market capitalisation and $221 million enterprise value.
The price implied 2.1-times forecast 2021 gross transaction value, the term sheet said.
The first $35 million raised at the IPO would be injected into the business, while some existing shareholders would take the other $5 million.
Potential investors were told MyDeal acted as an intermediary between consumer and sellers, with 800 active sellers and 5 million product SKUs on its platform. It said more than 1 million products were sold via MyDeal in the 2020 financial year.
Funds were told the IPO roadshow would begin next week and a bookbuild was slated for September 21.
If successful, the company's shares would trade on the ASX in the second half of October.
MyDeal's run at the ASX-boards has been coming since it booked its first half year profit, more than one year ago.
