Everyone filed to go public Monday

Hello and welcome back to

Equity

, TechCrunch’s venture capital-focused podcast (now on Twitter!

), where we unpack the numbers behind the headlines.

We’re back out of sequence,

because literally every company you can name (well, almost) dropped an S-1 yesterday

so we had to sit down and parse them out a bit. That so many filings dropped during the same two days when we had Y Combinator’s two-day Demo Day at the same time meant that we were all a bit punchdrunk, but we rallied.

Natasha

and Danny

and Chris

and myself

all piled back onto the mics to dig through all the numbers. Here’s a rundown of the companies we went through:

• Palantir, which filed its formal S-1

  during our recording session. Danny covered most of the news last Friday, but the public doc is now live, so happy sleuthing.

• Unity’s huge IPO

  that shows how big gaming is. Natasha connected it to the broader Apple-Epic dustup, and we all reviled in its growth results.

• Snowflake had Danny so excited he was conjuring scripted segues, and we were all impressed at its historical growth

  . Sure, it lost a lot of money last year, but, hey, Snowflake has dialed that back as well.

• And then there was Asana, a company I’ve covered quite a lot over the years. Our general take is that the company’s growth has been good, if it is losing more money than we anticipated

  . Still, Asana could set a neat new precedent of raising debt ahead of a direct listing. This is one to watch.

• And then we spent a little time on JFrog and Sumo Logic (more here

  ), because we are nothing if not completionists.

Got all of that? It was a lot of facts to get through, but we did our best and we hope this helps. More tomorrow as we talk Y Combinator with a special guest host. Chat tomorrow!
