Firmus prices $5B IPO as valuation nearly triples in two months, splitting investors

Blackstone- and Nvidia-backed Australian data-centre operator Firmus priced its $5B IPO at A$11 a share, for a $30.6B equity valuation, nearly triple its $10.5B mark in early August. It lists on the ASX on Oct 23, but ~$30B of debt and execution risk worry some fund managers.
