美國(guó)IPO市場(chǎng)一季度完美收官
????新興公司“IPO危機(jī)”的說(shuō)法可以休矣。 ????2012年第一季度,有20 家由風(fēng)險(xiǎn)投資支持的公司在美國(guó)股市上市,創(chuàng)下2000年以來(lái)此類公司同期IPO新高。這些公司共籌集約16.3億美元資本,也是2007年一季度以來(lái)的同期新高。上市后總市值約95億美元。 ????一季度由風(fēng)投支持的最大IPO是ExactTarget ,這家位于印第安納波利斯的電郵營(yíng)銷軟件公司上周籌集了1.615億美元,發(fā)行850萬(wàn)股普通股,每股定價(jià)19美元(該股3月30日開(kāi)盤價(jià)為26.49美元)。其次為Millennial Media,這家位于巴爾的摩的移動(dòng)廣告平臺(tái)服務(wù)商在3月28日夜間籌集了1.33億美元,發(fā)行1,020萬(wàn)股,每股定價(jià)13美元(該股3月30日開(kāi)盤價(jià)為25.58美元)。 ????一季度大部分IPO公司都是IT公司,但也有幾家生命科學(xué)和清潔科技公司。最大的非IT公司是總部位于馬薩諸塞州劍橋的腫瘤藥公司Merrimack Pharmaceuticals,該公司本周早些時(shí)候籌集了1億美元。 ????第一季度唯一遺憾的是沒(méi)有一場(chǎng)像LinkedIn、Groupon或Zynga這樣的重磅IPO。第二季度隨著Facebook上市,這種狀況預(yù)計(jì)將得到改變。另外,由于最近通過(guò)的Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act法案,我們還將開(kāi)始看到一系列小盤股發(fā)行。 ????譯者:早稻米 |
??? It's time to throw another shovelful of dirt on the notion of an "IPO crisis" for emerging companies. ????20 venture capital-backed companies went public on U.S. exchanges during the first quarter, which is the highest Q1 number of such issuers since the beginning of 2000. They raised around $1.63 billion, which is the highest first-quarter tally since Q1 2007. The combined post-offering value was approximately $9.5 billion. ????The quarter's largest VC-backed IPO was for ExactTarget (ET), an Indianapolis-based maker of email marketing software, which last week raised $161.5 million by pricing 8.5 million common shares at $19 a piece (it opened trading today at $26.49). It was followed by Millennial Media (MM), a Baltimore-based mobile advertising platform that on Wednesday night raised $133 million by pricing 10.2 million shares at $13 per share (it opened today at $25.58). ????Most of the quarter's IPOs were for information technology companies, but there also were several life sciences and cleantech companies in the mix. The largest of the non-IT bunch was Cambridge, Mass.-based oncology drug company Merrimack Pharmaceuticals (MACK), which raised $100 million earlier this week. ????The only real negative for the quarter was that it didn't feature a blockbuster IPO, like LinkedIn (LNKD), Groupon (GRPN) or Zynga (ZNGA). Expect that to be rectified in Q2, when Facebook hits the public markets. We also could begin to see a slew of new issuance from small-cap companies, thanks to recent JOBS Act legislation. |
