Israeli DevOps technology company JFrog Ltd. has increased the proposed price range for its initial public offering on Nasdaq and is planning to raise up to $475.6 million at a valuation of $4 billion, double the amount stated in its registration statement filed less than a month ago. The company increased the range of the 11.6 million shares on offer to $39 to $41 from a prior $33 to $37. JFrog, which likely raised the range due to the interest its IPO has received in recent weeks, applied for the ticker "FROG".

 

According to the company’s filing, at the end of the second half of 2020 JFrog had more than 5,800 clients, including all 10 leading tech firms, eight of the leading financial services organizations, nine of the largest retail organizations, and eight of the leading healthcare organizations.
