During an IPO (Initial Public Offering), private stock is converted into public stock as the company transitions from private to publicly traded status. Existing shareholders, including employees and early investors, may have the opportunity to sell their shares on the open market once the IPO is completed, subject to lock-up periods. The IPO price is typically set based on the company's valuation, which can significantly impact the value of the previously private stock.
