When Will Armis IPO? It Won't: ServiceNow Bought It for $7.75B

Segmara Pro posts a weekly IPO brief in the members forum; 7-day free trial, then $15 a month (plus any applicable tax).

As of September 27, 2026, Armis is not pursuing an initial public offering and has no S-1 or F-1 registration statement on SEC EDGAR, which covers only US filings: the company was acquired outright by ServiceNow, a New York Stock Exchange-listed company, for $7.75 billion in cash in April 2026, the largest acquisition in ServiceNow's history and, per Fortune's August 19, 2026 report, the second-biggest pure startup exit in Israeli tech ever, after Google's 2025 Wiz deal. That closed a listing track Fortune says co-founder Yevgeny Dibrov had been describing to employees as recently as August 2025, before ServiceNow's acquisition talks began that same winter. ServiceNow has since folded Armis and sister acquisition Veza into a new "Autonomous Security and Risk" unit, and after Q2 2026 revenue reached $3.99 billion, up 24%, reported in late July 2026, told investors the combination was "supercharging" its security business. There is no separate Armis stock, ticker, or filing to track: any future disclosure about the business runs through ServiceNow's own SEC filings, not a standalone Armis registration.

Key points

The IPO track ended in an acquisition, not a filing

Fortune reported on August 19, 2026 that ServiceNow paid $7.75 billion in cash for Armis in April 2026 -- the largest acquisition in ServiceNow's history and the second-biggest pure startup exit in Israeli tech ever, after Google's 2025 Wiz deal.

That is not a filing. Under the heading "The IPO is cancelled," Fortune reported that co-founder Yevgeny Dibrov had told employees by August 2025 that Armis was headed toward an IPO, before ServiceNow's acquisition talks began that winter. The path from telling staff a listing is coming to an actual S-1 registration is not automatic, and in Armis's case it ended in an outright sale instead.

Where the deal ranks

Fortune describes the $7.75 billion cash price as the largest acquisition in ServiceNow's history and the second-biggest pure startup exit in Israeli tech ever, trailing only Google's 2025 acquisition of Wiz. For a company whose own co-founder had been signaling an IPO less than a year earlier, that scale reflects an acquirer buying the entire business rather than letting it list independently.

What ServiceNow did with Armis next

ServiceNow folded Armis, alongside sister acquisition Veza, into a new "Autonomous Security and Risk" unit. After Q2 2026 revenue reached $3.99 billion, up 24%, reported in late July 2026, ServiceNow told investors the combination was "supercharging" its security business.

Armis therefore has no separate ticker, no standalone SEC filings, and no listing timeline of its own -- any future disclosure about its business runs through ServiceNow's own reporting as a public company, not a distinct Armis registration on SEC EDGAR.

Search intent

Searches like 'When Will Armis IPO? It Won't: ServiceNow Bought It for $7.75B' are research questions: what a filing or a company statement confirms, what has only been reported, and what is still unknown.

What counts as a listing step

For an IPO, the primary record is a registration statement filed with the securities regulator of the listing market, such as an S-1 or F-1 on SEC EDGAR for a US listing. Funding rounds, valuations and secondary-market prices are context, not listing steps.

How a company reaches a US listing

The SEC filing trail

DraftThe company can first submit a draft registration statement (DRS) for confidential SEC review.
S-1 or F-1The registration statement goes public on SEC EDGAR: Form S-1, or Form F-1 for many foreign companies. A company that used a draft must file publicly at least 15 days before its roadshow.
AmendmentsS-1/A or F-1/A amendments answer SEC comments, and one of them adds the expected price range.
PricingOnce the SEC declares the registration effective, the company sets the price with its underwriters and files the final prospectus, usually a 424B4.
First tradeThe shares start trading on the exchange named in the prospectus, such as Nasdaq or the NYSE.
