Methodology and caveats
- This calendar focuses on U.S. operating‑company IPOs expected during Oct 1–31, 2025. SPACs and foreign‑market deals are excluded unless cross‑listed in the U.S. Dates, terms and syndicates are based on company filings/press releases, SEC documents, and reputable calendars and may change, especially amid the current SEC staffing constraints.

If you’d like, I can refresh this calendar mid‑month or generate a version filtered by sector (e.g., financials, tech, industrials).

Notes and methodology - Ratings terminology is normalized to Buy/Hold/Sell equivalents where firms use Overweight/Equal Weight/Underweight. Dates reflect the latest report or note we could locate from each institution. Some banks issue multiple updates; we use the most recent credible publication. - NVDA targets are split-adjusted for the June 2024 10-for-1 split where needed. - Consensus target and rating reflect only the six institutions listed above and are simple averages/majority classifications. - Source links: GS on AAPL/META/AMZN (investing.com); MS on MSFT/GOOGL/NVDA/TSLA (barrons.com); JPM on AAPL/AMZN/NVDA/GOOGL/META (gurufocus.com); BAC on AAPL/AMZN/GOOGL/META/TSLA (marketbeat.com); Citi on AAPL/AMZN/GOOGL/META/NVDA/TSLA (investing.com); WFC on AAPL/NVDA/GOOGL/META/AMZN/TSLA (investing.com).
If you want, I can export these tables to a CSV or Google Sheet and keep them refreshed with new notes going forward.
