Klarna Group Plc.’s (KLAR) initial public offering (IPO) plans are back in place, according to the buy-now, pay-later (BNPL) firm’s filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Tuesday.

Klarna is a Swedish fintech company that offers payment processing services to e-commerce partners. The company is seeking to raise $1.27 billion through an initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), as stated in its filing. 

This comes after the Klarna IPO was previously delayed earlier this year amid heightened market volatility due to President Donald Trump’s tariffs.

Retail sentiment on Stocktwits around Klarna was in the ‘extremely bullish’ territory at the time of writing.

Klarna and some of its existing investors have offered to sell around 34.3 million equity shares through the IPO, with the price band set between $35 and $37, according to the company’s SEC filing. The shares will be traded under the symbol “KLAR.”

The firm reported that its revenue during the first six months of 2025 was $1.52 billion, while it reported a net loss of $153 million during this period. During the same period a year ago, Klarna generated $1.33 billion in revenue, while incurring a net loss of $38 million.

The company, which is currently expanding its “fair financing” program that extends larger-ticket loans to customers over a longer period, warned in its filing that this offering could result in a negative impact on its performance in the near term.

Klarna filed its papers for a U.S. IPO earlier in March, but it put its plans on hold after President Trump’s tariff announcement in April roiled the equity markets.
