PIPE (private investment in public equity)

PIPE

A financing deal in which investors buy shares of a company directly, at a negotiated price, after it is already publicly listed, rather than through a public share sale on the open market. PIPE deals are often used alongside a SPAC merger to provide additional capital at the time a company goes public that way. No deal of this kind is currently recorded in this dataset; if one is captured, it should be added to the funding-instrument vocabulary rather than tracked only here.
