BellRing has filed a registration statement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission for the proposed IPO of its class A common stock and has applied for a listing on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol BRBR. Post Holdings said it has not yet finalised the price range for the shares.

The Active Nutrition business includes ready-to-drink protein beverages, protein powders, nutrition bars and other nutritional supplements under brand names such as Premier Protein, Dymatize, PowerBar, Supreme Protein and Joint Juice. 

Post Holdings said it expects the IPO to be completed during the autumn. Its registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission has not yet become effective, it said in a statement on Friday (20 September), and added it could not guarantee that the transaction comes to fruition.
