Winter is coming and so is an Instacart initial public offering. Like “Game of Thrones” protagonist Bran Stark, the grocery-delivery platform risks being thrown from towering heights in its debut.

The Wall Street Journal reported that the company made the move in part to offer more attractive long-term upside to employees who were being granted equity at that level.
