Revolut Launches $75 Billion Secondary Share Sale for Employee Stock Sales
Revolut has initiated a secondary share sale valuing the fintech giant at $75 billion, marking a significant leap from its $45 billion valuation just a year ago. Employees can now sell up to 20% of their stock holdings, with shares priced at $1,381 each. The MOVE solidifies Revolut's position as Europe's most valuable private tech company ahead of a potential 2026 IPO.
Financial performance underscores the valuation surge. Revolut nearly doubled its revenue to $4 billion in 2024 while achieving $1 billion in profit. With over 50 million global users, the company is expanding aggressively—pursuing a U.S. banking charter and testing stablecoins in Latin America.
The share sale represents a watershed moment for fintech liquidity. Unlike traditional IPOs, secondary sales allow early employees to monetize equity while maintaining corporate control. Revolut's growth trajectory suggests this could become a blueprint for mature unicorns navigating public market expectations.
