About Addepar

Addepar is a Mountain View, California-based wealth management software-as-a-service (SaaS) company founded in 2009 by Joe Lonsdale and Jason Mirra. Lonsdale was a founder of Palantir Technologies in 2004 alongside Peter Thiel. Mirra was an early Palantir employee. 

The company provides a data platform for wealth management, enabling registered investment advisors (RIA) to monitor and manage their clients’ assets across complex investment portfolios. Its goal is to create more transparency in the financial system.

Addepar’s platform allows advisors to aggregate assets in one place, enabling portfolio trading, rebalancing, and analyzing real-time portfolio data. A significant differentiator is the integration capabilities, connecting systems and workflows with hundreds of existing financial platforms. 

More than $4 trillion in assets are managed on the Addepar platform, trusted by more than 850 firms, including family offices, financial advisors, and institutional investors. Here’s a recent video from Addepar. 

Ownership

Addepar is a venture-backed startup, counting several venture capital firms and high-profile entrepreneurs as investors. 

The company has raised about $500 million in venture capital funding since its founding. The latest round was a Series F completed in June 2021, raising $150 million. But reports suggest it plans to raise a new round of $250 million in 2025. 

Prominent venture capital investors include 8VC, Formation 8, D1 Capital Partners, Panorama Point Partners, Signatures Capital, Sway Ventures, Laszlo Bock, David O. Sacks, Harald McPike, Valor Equity Partners, WestCap Group, and Thrive Capital.

Addepar Valuation

The latest confirmed Addepar valuation is estimated to be $2.0 billion based on the Series F funding round completed in June 2021. That round was completed during the IPO euphoria of 2021. 

However, a January 2025 Bloomberg indicates the company is valuing itself at $3.25 billion pre-money headed into a fresh funding round. 

IPO Potential

The Addepar IPO date has yet to be determined. The company has not yet filed publicly for an IPO.

Addepar is a late-stage startup. Founded in 2009 and having completed up to its Series F funding round, we anticipate Addepar will participate in the next wave of IPOs when market conditions improve.

Having proven it can add more clients and grow AUM under its umbrella, the company should be approaching profitability. 

Addepar may also be an acquisition candidate for a bank or financial services firm.

We’ll get clues about a potential IPO date when we learn about the hiring of an underwriter, an S-1 filing is submitted, or reporting discloses a date range. 

How to Invest in Addepar Stock

Most investors cannot own Addepar stock via pre-IPO investing platforms because they require the investor to be accredited. 

When the Addepar IPO date arrives, it will still be difficult for most investors to acquire IPO shares. 

The most likely way investors can own Addepar stock is to wait for the IPO and buy shares after it goes public. There may be other opportunities to own the stock before the IPO. 

Here are some potential options to own Addepar stock before, during, and after the IPO.

1. Access Addepar Shares Pre-IPO

Pre-IPO investment platforms may offer Addepar stock for early purchase as employees or early investors seek to sell some of their shares before the Addepar IPO.

Accredited investors may access shares, provided they are registered on the platform and receive notifications about their availability.

Monitor pre-IPO investing platforms such as Hiive, Equitybee, Forge Global, EquityZen, and Linqto for share availability. 

If shares become available, expect to pay at least a $10,000 investment minimum. It’s free to sign up for data and deal alerts. 

Pre-IPO investment platform memberships are free, but deal-specific minimum investment amounts may apply and vary.

Non-accredited investors can own pre-IPO companies via venture capital funds targeted to retail investors. Venture capital funds are a new asset class that emerged in 2022.

The Fundrise Innovation Fund (review) is the best option available. However, Addepar is not currently in the portfolio.

2. Participate in the Addepar IPO through a broker

When a company goes public, investors can buy the stock during the IPO at the IPO price. 

Before, only Wall Street’s top customers could invest in IPOs. But now, retail investors can access IPOs through participating discount brokers. 

Some online brokers (like the ones listed below) allow investors to invest in IPOs for free, even if they have limited funds in their accounts.

• TradeStation 
• Robinhood 

Brokers negotiate exclusive access to IPO shares. The chances of getting access to specific high-demand IPOs increase by the number of brokerage accounts you have. 

TradeStation has a more established track record of accessing more than 300 IPOs and secondary offerings via its partnership with ClickIPO. 

Robinhood has the advantage of Silicon Valley networks and a history of getting allocations for high-profile IPOs.

3. Buy the stock after the Addepar IPO

Waiting for the IPO has advantages, such as access to more established financials after the first quarter of trading. Pre-IPO investing has limited financials.

High-demand companies may have exaggerated valuations. Investors can benefit by attempting to sell near the peak but may suffer when prices revert to fair valuations.

IPOs often start with high valuations, but stock prices may fall after the first and second-quarter earnings reports expose significant numbers and trends.

For example, in 2021, Rivian and Robinhood were high-flying IPO stocks but fell more than 80% below their peak stock prices just six months after their respective IPOs.

Stock price declines can be excellent entry points for recent IPO stock. Avoid buying overvalued shares immediately after the IPO due to lockup expirations and earnings disappointments.

However, the most disruptive companies may perform better over a decade, so patience is key.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is Addepar Publicly Traded?

No. Addepar is a privately held late-stage startup.

What is the Addepar Stock Price?

Since Addepar is not publicly traded on a stock exchange, there is no public Addepar stock price yet. Pre-IPO marketplace data can offer some guidance on current price. 

A January 2025 Bloomberg indicates the company has a $3.25 valuation. I estimate the associate stock price to be about $4 per share based on secondary price data  provided by Caplight. 

What is the Addepar Stock Symbol?

We’ll learn what the Addepar stock symbol will be once Addepar officially files for an IPO via Form S-1 with the SEC and releases it to the public. 

However, we can speculate about what the Addepar ticker will be.

Here are some suggestions which seem likely and are available in the U.S.:

• ADDE
• ADPR
• ADDP

What Does the Name Addepar mean?

A 2016 interview revealed the meaning of the company name Addepar. Joe Lonsdale told Cleverism: 

Addepar. Yes, it’s a very funny name. I think these things are difficult to name. In this case it is from a quote, from Ovid’s Metamorphoses. So it’s a common expression in I guess the Roman world, “Adde parvum parvo magnus acervus erit“, which means “Add a little to a little and you’ll have a great amount.” And so it’s a quote about perseverance, but it also applies to both management if you’re adding a little to a little and having a great amount.

Where is the Addepar IPO S-1 Filing?

The Addepar S-1 filing has not been released to the public, and there is no indication of a confidential filing.

The document will become available if the company submits filings to the SEC and the regulatory commission approves and releases it to the public. 

We’ll post a copy of the S-1 filing on this page when it becomes available.

Conclusion

Investors may be enthusiastic when they discover companies like Addepar and Acrisure capitalizing on macroeconomic trends such as financial services and software-as-a-service (SaaS). 

But buying stock early on can be challenging for retail investors, despite wanting to own the company.

Pre-IPO platforms provide more investor opportunities. But venture capital investment is still primarily reserved for the ultra-wealthy, necessitating significant wealth to invest in seed and early funding rounds.

When pursuing IPO shares and early equity in Addepar, have reasonable expectations.

Invest in pre-IPO and IPO companies with caution. Good luck if the Addepar IPO is on your watch list.
