Only one of two proposed initial public offerings (IPOs) was completed last week, getting the post-Thanksgiving IPO market off to a slow start. That should change this week, with seven companies on the IPO calendar.

Last week’s only successful launch was Innovative Industrial Properties Inc. (NYSE: IIPR), a REIT focused on the acquisition, ownership, and management of specialized industrial properties leased to experienced, state-licensed operators for their regulated medical-use cannabis facilities. The company raised $67 million at a market cap of $68 million after reducing the number of shares on offer from an initial total of 8.75 million to 3.35 million.

Through the week ending November 25 IPO ETF manager Renaissance Capital reported that 98 IPOs have priced in the U.S. so far this year, down about 42% from a year ago. Total proceeds raised through last week equaled $17.3 billion, also down about 42% compared with the same period in 2015. Of the 98 IPOs that have gone off this year, 41 have come from the healthcare sector. Last year’s IPO total came in at $30 billion on 170 offerings. Renaissance Capital does not include “best efforts” or blank-check companies in its totals, nor does it include IPOs that raise less than $10 million.

Here are the six IPOs that will try to enter the public equity markets in the coming week. Four are back for another try after postponing previous planned IPOs.

Returning from last week is Eagleline Acquisition Corp., a blank-check company that intends to concentrate its efforts on businesses supplying services to the healthcare industry. The firm plans sell 15 million units at $10 per unit to raise $150 million. Each unit includes one share of class A common stock and one-half of one warrant to purchase an additional share. Units are listed as day-to-day and will trade on the Nasdaq under the symbol IGLEU.
