GoPro IPO Headlines This Week's 19 Initial Public Offerings

This week is extremely busy on the IPO calendar as 19 companies hold initial public offerings. While there will be 19 new investment opportunities, the GoPro IPO is this week's must-watch IPO.

GoPro Inc. (Nasdaq: GPRO) designs wearable cameras that are frequently used to film extreme sports like skiing, snowboarding, and surfing. The company was founded in San Mateo, Calif., in 2004 by now-billionaire Nick Woodman.

The company's products have made high-profile appearances with extreme-sport athletes including Olympic snowboarder Shaun White and world-champion surfer Kelly Slater. Stuntman Felix Baumgartner filmed his highly publicized space freefall in 2012 with a GoPro camera. That footage was used in a 2014 Super Bowl commercial.

Through the IPO, GoPro plans to raise $401 million by offering 17.8 million shares at a $21 to $24 range. The company is expected to have a valuation near $3.4 billion after reporting $966 million in revenue last year.
