Oura postponed its IPO, citing volatile market conditions, while OpenAI confirmed a listing delay tied to internal safety evaluations and corporate governance readiness, Yahoo Finance reported. Both pauses were announced this week.

The report's IPO data, licensed from IPOScoop, recorded 122 new filings in Q3, compared with 111 in Q2. Only 76 Q3 filings secured an offering date and price, a 62% conversion rate and the lowest since Q4 2025. Those figures describe the broader IPO market rather than technology issuers alone.
