The firm, which owns beauty brands Il Makiage and SpoiledChild, launched onto the US stock market with over 10.5 million Class A ordinary shares, while seeking a valuation of up to 1.7 billion dollars.
The company said it is expecting the price of such shares to come between 27 and 30 dollars each.
Net proceeds of the IPO are forecast to reach 41 million dollars, according to Oddity, which said it would use the funds to develop and launch new brands, as well as other general corporate purposes.
