WeWork’s parent is expected to postpone its initial public offering after investors questioned how much the company is worth and raised concerns about its corporate governance.

The shared-workspace company — which had planned to begin a roadshow to market the shares as early as Monday ahead of a trading debut next week — is likely to shelve the offering until at least next month, people familiar with the matter said.
