In its filing, Arm stated that "approximately 70% of the world's population uses Arm-based products" and that it held a 49% share in a market worth over £200 billion last year. With the smartphone market facing a downturn, Arm is diversifying its focus towards automotive and cloud computing, as well as artificial intelligence.

One of the risks highlighted by Arm in its IPO filing is the "economic and political risks" associated with China, which is the largest smartphone market globally. Revenue from royalties in China declined in 2022, and the complex ownership structure of Arm China adds further complications.

Prior to this IPO, Arm was a publicly traded company, which mitigates some of the usual risks associated with such offerings. However, regulators and financial institutions will closely monitor this IPO as a test of market strength after a period of relative inactivity.
