Dataset as of 2 November 2026 · 179 rows from 1 January 2026
No new rows were added to the tracker in the week to 2 November 2026, so the tape carries forward the position already on the record: more cancellations than admissions since 1 January, a sizeable balance of venue transfers among the admissions that were made, and a record of intentions to float that is almost entirely spent. For a CFO or company secretary, the week's value is in the cumulative shape rather than in any single event.
Coverage: the dataset runs from 1 January 2026 to 2 November 2026. No rows were added between the last edition of 26 October 2026 and this one, so the figures below are cumulative to 2 November 2026 rather than a week-on-week change.
1. Net flow stays negative as cancellations continue to outnumber admissions
Across the dataset, which runs from 1 January 2026 to 2 November 2026, the tracker records 39 admissions and 64 cancellations, a net flow of -25. Suspensions stand at 55. The figures are cumulative counts, not a weekly rate, and no rows were added in the week to 2 November, so nothing in this edition changes them. Read together with the 8 intentions to float on record — of which 1 is live and 0 stale — the counts describe a year in which departures from the market have run ahead of arrivals, and in which the pipeline of stated intentions has largely resolved one way or the other.
2. Four admissions in ten are venue transfers rather than new issues
Of the 39 admissions recorded, the share that are venue transfers — a listing moving from another market rather than a company raising new money — is published at 0.41, with a sample of 39, comfortably above the minimum of 5 the site applies before it will print a figure. Money raised is stated by 17 of the 39 admissions and totals GBP 1,613,758,986; the remaining 22 admissions carry no stated figure in the tracker. Taken with net flow of -25, the two published measures suggest a year in which a substantial part of listing activity has been relocations already admitted elsewhere, though the tracker records the transfers as admissions on the same basis as new issues.
3. The median preparation gap is published at 22.0 days
The median gap between an intention to float (ITF) — the formal announcement a company makes before a listing — and admission is published at 22.0 days, on a sample of 7 and a minimum of 5. The post-ITF completion rate, which would say how often a stated intention actually reaches admission, is withheld as the sample is too small. Both figures are cumulative to 2 November 2026. For those preparing a listing, the published median gives a working guide to the timetable between announcement and admission, but it is a median across a small sample and does not describe any individual company's path.
