June kicks off with four new deals on this week's upcoming IPO calendar. They're expected to raise a combined $552 million.
May saw 20 IPOs raise a combined $4.3 billion. According to Renaissance Capital, a manager of IPO-focused ETFs, the group has an average return of 15%. Tallgrass Energy GP LP (NYSE: TEGP), the largest IPO of 2015, made its debut on May 6 and raised $1.2 billion.
Nearly half of last month's deals were biotech IPOs. But this week marks the third consecutive week without one - the longest stretch since January.
Leading this week's new IPOs are PennTex Midstream Partners LP (Nasdaq: PTXP) and Evolent Health Inc. (NYSE: EVH). The two are expected to raise 68% of this week's funds.
Here are all four deals on the upcoming IPO calendar...
