Summit NJ, Johnson & Johnson spun off its Kenvue consumer brands division on Thursday, raising the most cash from an initial public offering (IPO) in more than a year. Johnson & Johnson said it sold 172.8 million shares(opens in new tab) at $22 a pop in Kenvue, giving the company whose brands include Band-Aid, Tylenol and Listerine a valuation of roughly $40 billion.
Johnson & Johnson, a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, raised $3.8 billion from the offering. That’s the largest haul from an IPO since late 2021, according to Renaissance Capital. The IPO market dried up in 2022 amid a historically bad year for stocks and the hangover from 2021’s frenzy of fizzled SPAC offerings.

Tom Bracken, President & CEO, New Jersey Chamber of Commerce said , ” Johnson & Johnson has a long, storied history in New Jersey and we are pleased that its spinoff, Kenvue, has chosen Summit as its headquarters. The company received no state tax incentives when making this decision. Therefore, this is another recent example of a company looking at all New Jersey has to offer its employees and operations and choosing the Garden State over other states due to our superior demographics, our enormous array of assets and our ideal location. Additionally, we wish Kenvue, a soon to be Fortune 100 company, the all the best as it delivers iconic brands to consumers in New Jersey and the rest of the world. This is a win for our economy and all New Jerseyans.”
