The health care startup priced its shares at $14 on Thursday, at the low end of its range, and its stock opened at $18 on its first day of trading. The company raised $245 million by selling 17.5 million shares at its IPO price before it began trading on the Nasdaq on Friday.
Shares of the company were trading at $21 at noon on Friday, 50 percent higher than its IPO price, according to Yahoo Finance.
While the stock surging on the first day of trading shows public market investors have an appetite for the company, it also means One Medical left money on the table.

One of the first companies to file to go public this year, One Medical filed its S-1 statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Jan. 3.
