Vroom upsized offering by 2.5 mln shares and priced 21.25 mln share IPO at $22.00 per share, above the expected range of $18-20

Vroom said in its IPO filing that the coronavirus pandemic could move more car buyers online. However, the company did acknowledge that the covid-19 pandemic did hurt its e-commerce operations, with online sales falling 15% from March 11 to March 31.

Vroom's IPO follows that of Warner Music Group  (WMG), which began trading last Wednesday, and ZoomInfo Technologies  (ZI), which debuted last Thursday.

The market for initial public offerings has been heating up this month. Last week, the IPO market saw more than $7 billion raised globally, according to a report from Bloomberg.
