Post-IPO debt rounds in this hardware set show a clear size split: Lumentum’s $750M round (2022-03-03) is an outlier that dwarfs the rest of the disclosed amounts, while the next-largest disclosed figures sit at $296M (Infrastrutture Wireless Italiane, 2021-08-04) and $100M (Faraday Future, 2022-09-26 and Desktop Metal, 2022-05-10). On the low end, Swarmio Media’s $620K (2022-08-24) is far smaller than other sub-$10M entries like Spectra7 Microsystems ($9M, 2022-08-25) and Guerrilla RF ($8M, 2022-08-12).
Timing concentrates into a late-2022 cluster: 8 of the 11 rows land between 2022-08-12 and 2022-10-10, including multiple consecutive August rounds (e.g., Swarmio Media $620K on 2022-08-24 and Spectra7 Microsystems $9M on 2022-08-25). Geographically, the list skews to the US (6 of 11), with the remaining entries in Australia (Seeing Machines, 2022-10-06), Canada (Titan Medical, 2022-01-26; Swarmio Media, 2022-08-24), and Italy (Infrastrutture Wireless Italiane, 2021-08-04). The disclosed-amount range spans from $620K up to $750M across the most recent 2022-10-10 entry (PROCEPT BioRobotics) and the oldest 2021-08-04 entry (Infrastrutture Wireless Italiane).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed post-IPO debt round here, and how does it compare to the rest of the disclosed amounts?
Lumentum’s $750M round on 2022-03-03 is the dominant outlier, with the next-largest disclosed amounts at $296M (Infrastrutture Wireless Italiane, 2021-08-04) and $100M (Faraday Future, 2022-09-26; Desktop Metal, 2022-05-10). Multiple other rounds cluster far below that range, including PROCEPT BioRobotics at $52M (2022-10-10) and Swarmio Media at $620K (2022-08-24).
Are there date clusters in this post-IPO debt hardware list, or are the rounds evenly spread?
They concentrate in a late-2022 window: 8 of the 11 rounds fall between 2022-08-12 (Guerrilla RF) and 2022-10-10 (PROCEPT BioRobotics). That includes an August streak where three consecutive days capture Swarmio Media ($620K, 2022-08-24), Spectra7 Microsystems ($9M, 2022-08-25), and earlier August closings like Guerrilla RF ($8M, 2022-08-12) and UpHealth ($68M, 2022-08-15).
Which cities or countries are over-represented among the rounds shown?
The geography skew is US-heavy: 6 of the 11 companies are located in the United States, including PROCEPT BioRobotics (Redwood Shores, CA; 2022-10-10) and Lumentum (Milpitas, CA; 2022-03-03). Outside the US, single entries appear in Australia (Canberra; Seeing Machines, $30M on 2022-10-06), Italy (Milan; Infrastrutture Wireless Italiane, $296M on 2021-08-04), and Canada (Toronto; Titan Medical, $11M on 2022-01-26; and Sydney, Nova Scotia; Swarmio Media, $620K on 2022-08-24).
Do any rounds fall within the same rough dollar range, suggesting a funding band?
Yes. Several disclosed amounts cluster in the tens of millions: Seeing Machines is $30M (2022-10-06), PROCEPT BioRobotics is $52M (2022-10-10), UpHealth is $68M (2022-08-15), and Titan Medical is $11M (2022-01-26) sits just above the single-digit group. Separately, a mid-band of $8M–$9M appears with Guerrilla RF at $8M (2022-08-12) and Spectra7 Microsystems at $9M (2022-08-25).
Are there outliers that would change how you interpret deal-size concentration?
Two extremes matter. Lumentum’s $750M (2022-03-03) is far above the next-largest disclosed rounds, and Swarmio Media’s $620K (2022-08-24) is the clear small-side outlier compared with other low disclosed amounts like Guerrilla RF ($8M, 2022-08-12) and Spectra7 Microsystems ($9M, 2022-08-25).
