The Wall Street Journal reports that Robinhood will serve as the 18th and last underwriter of the offering, coming after other big names in finance such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. The WSJ added that participation in the deal would afford Robinhood increased clout in terms of allocating Oura shares to its retail customers.

Robinhood Oura IPO Expands Brokerage’s Role
However, up to this point, the business model that Robinhood used for IPOs was mostly based on the IPO Access feature. It helped eligible Robinhood users request stocks from companies that were about to go public, while Robinhood received such stocks via the lead underwriters.
In the case of the Robinhood Oura IPO, Robinhood becomes the underwriter itself.
In June 2026, Robinhood obtained regulatory approval to underwrite IPOs. This will be the first big deal where Robinhood can leverage its approval and gain direct experience in an area that was traditionally ruled by Wall Street’s giant investment banks.
This may also help Robinhood to expand further into areas where its business is not currently operating.
Oura Shows Strong Revenue Growth
The financial success of Oura is another crucial aspect of the Robinhood Oura IPO narrative.
According to its earnings report for the period of January 1, 2026 – June 30, 2026, Oura’s revenues totaled approximately $1.21 billion, which was a 74% rise compared to the prior year. Moreover, the company reported its net income at $60.8 million for the period.
Currently, Oura has 5 million paying users, while its subscription service has become an integral part of its business model.
Oura officially submitted its S-1 registration statement on September 3-4, 2026, following the confidential filing made in May 2026. The IPO may be valued at more than $11 billion.
Oura Heads Toward Nasdaq
Oura has received private investments amounting to over $1.5 billion. Our most recent financing is the Series E worth $900 million, which was completed in October 2025 at a valuation of $11 billion.
The Robinhood Oura IPO allows Oura to access the public market while Robinhood gets the opportunity to gain experience in underwriting IPOs. Even though Robinhood is ranked last out of the 18 underwriters, the deal may allow Robinhood to develop its underwriting capabilities in future deals.
