As of September 27, 2026, Verkada has not filed an S-1 or any other registration statement with the SEC. The company's EDGAR record (CIK 0001688873) lists twelve filings since 2016, all Form D or Form D/A exempt-offering notices, the most recent a Form D/A filed July 10, 2026, indicating no formal IPO process had begun despite reported bank talks. Those filings cover private securities sales exempt from full SEC registration, not a public listing, and SEC EDGAR covers only US filings. The company's most recent disclosed valuation dates to December 3, 2025, when Verkada said Alphabet's growth fund CapitalG led an investment valuing it at $5.8 billion, a $1.3 billion increase from its Series E round earlier that year, with the company saying it had surpassed $1 billion in annualized bookings. Neither a private funding round nor a Form D notice signals when, or whether, a company will pursue an IPO. Track SEC EDGAR and Verkada's own announcements directly, not secondary rumors.

Key points
A filing history of private placements, not a public offering
Verkada's record on SEC EDGAR (CIK 0001688873) contains twelve filings since 2016. Every one is a Form D or Form D/A, the notice a private company files with the SEC after selling securities in an offering exempt from full registration. The most recent is a Form D/A filed July 10, 2026.
No S-1 or any other registration statement appears on that record, which is the filing type that begins a public listing process in the United States. That absence, as of the latest EDGAR review, indicates no formal IPO process had begun despite reported talks with banks.
A $5.8 billion valuation, set outside the IPO process
On December 3, 2025, Verkada said Alphabet's growth fund CapitalG had led an investment valuing the company at $5.8 billion, a $1.3 billion increase from its Series E round earlier that year.
Verkada said the new valuation came as the company had surpassed $1 billion in annualized bookings. A private funding round, at any valuation, is not a registration statement and does not itself appear on SEC EDGAR.
What SEC EDGAR does and does not cover
SEC EDGAR covers only US securities filings. Form D and Form D/A notices are exempt-offering filings, not the S-1 or F-1 registration statements a company files to list shares on a US exchange, so a private sale or a listing pursued outside the US would not necessarily appear on EDGAR at all.
Until an S-1, F-1, or comparable registration statement appears on Verkada's EDGAR record, or the company states a filing date directly, any specific Verkada IPO date remains unconfirmed.

Searches like 'When Will Verkada IPO? No Filing Yet Despite a $5.8B Valuation' 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.
Segmara role

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.

Risk notes
Rumor risk: unofficial dates, valuations, or funding details circulating on social media or forums are frequently wrong or outdated and should not be treated as confirmation of anything.
Illiquidity risk: any private-market interest, indicative marks, or pre-IPO share arrangements in a company that has not listed can be difficult to exit and may not reflect a tradable price.
Timing risk: a company can pause, restart, or abandon IPO preparation at any stage, including after a confidential or public filing, so no step before pricing guarantees a listing.
