àAbout Tomorrow’s IPOs (Tim Fields)
Tomorrow, investors across the globe are gearing up for what could be the best week in IPO history since 2006. Tomorrow there are two IPOs pricing that could almost guarantee investors see 100%.
The companies:
The first is a leading design-driven fashion casual menswear company in China. They’re looking to sell their shares on the NASDAQ within the $11-$13 range… and with the earnings they’re producing, seeing that price rocket up past $26 per share on trading day is extremely possible.
From the company’s IPO prospectus:
“Our business has grown rapidly in recent years. Our revenues increased from RMB434.5 million in 2007 to RMB598.3 million in 2008 and RMB693.1 million (US$103.6 million) in 2009, representing a CAGR of 26.3% from 2007 to 2009.”
The “Use of Proceeds” statement the company provided (what they will do from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering) is classically strong and companies which follow this type of statement generally do very well on the IPO market and are well received by IPO investors. The statement reads:
“We intend to use the net proceeds we receive from this offering primarily for the following purposes:
· Approximately 35% to open our directly operated flagship stores in China with current plans to open 50 directly operated flagship stores by 2012;
· Approximately 35% to support our distributors in opening new retail stores and renovating current retail stores;
· Approximately 17% to enhance our advertising and promotional activities and to strengthen our design and product development capabilities;
· Approximately 12% to establish a logistics center in Shishi for the purpose of stocking our finished products; and
· The remaining amount to fund working capital and for other general corporate purposes.”
It’s all about growth and in the 2011 IPO market – that’s what drives IPOs to top 100%.
The second company is from Ireland – yes Ireland – and it’s very profitable!
They are a leading global provider of mobile marketing and advertising technology that enable brands, advertising agencies, mobile operators and media companies to implement highly targeted, interactive and measurable campaigns by communicating with and engaging consumers via their mobile devices.
I believe it has the potential to top 100% because…
The “Use of Proceeds” Statement for this Irish company is exactly what we like to see. It reads the following:
“We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to repay certain short-term financings and long-term debt, totaling $53.5 million.
We intend to use the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes and working capital including funding our strategic plan for global expansion and making further investments in our technology solutions, including our recently introduced platform.
We may also use a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to acquire other businesses, products or technologies.”
Earnings with this IPO are quite strong. Have a look:
· 2007: $16 million
· 2008: $62 million
· 2009: $89 million
· 9 months ending 9/10: $58 million
As you can see, from 2007 to 2009 their earnings went ballistic – surging 456.25%. And I see this trend continuing.
This company will be debuting within the price targets of $9-$11 per share and I’m expecting they will debut as early as tomorrow.
My expectation with this IPO is that it will be very well received and because of the potential for very significant demand, seeing the price climb to over $23 per share is what I’m anticipating.
This is the first “real” week of the 2011 IPO market…
Since New Year’s, the IPO market has been very slow, something that is predictable and quite common. With the addition of these two IPOs to the pipeline, all hell’s gonna bust loose with investors who’ve been on the sidelines waiting to pounce and if we see what I believe will happen, there are going to be a considerable amount of IPO traders with VERY fat wallets come this time tomorrow.
These two IPOs will be recommended to our IPO clients first thing tomorrow and they will be instructed on how to take advantage of them and be amongst the first retail investors in… all before the market even opens – so they can snap up shares and be care free when the IPO begins trading.
Good luck everyone!

àApple and Elvis? (Shawn Ambrosino)
On the heels of yesterday’s Apple conversation, I wanted to follow up with how the company is performing and what the future holds.
After yesterday’s 2%+ drop, it seems that AAPL is on the rebound today, gaining .54% through 11:30 am, up $1.54 from yesterday’s close.
What could be the catalyst for this turnaround?
Well, yesterday Apple released its 2011 Q1 numbers, and to say it was stellar would be an understatement…
As Apple reported its best quarter in the history of the company, hitting $26.74 billion in revenue, with a net quarterly profit of $6 billion.
How’d they do it?
By decimating earlier estimates – that’s how!
During Q1, which includes the always lucrative holiday shopping season, Apple sold 19.45 million iPods, 16.24 iPhones, 7.33 million iPads, and 4.13 million Macs.
It seems the world is turning towards Apple as they seem to be at the trailblazers in the world of “cool” tech…
Look around you, I’m sure you’re noticing how many people are either using an iPhone or listening to their iPod, and it seems like Q1 is only the beginning for what could be Apple’s biggest year yet…
As projected revenue for Q2 are still in the vicinity of Q1’s record numbers, coming in at around $22 billion, with diluted earnings per share of about $4.90.
And this thought is echoed by C.O.O, Tim Cook as he proudly proclaimed, "In my view, Apple is doing its best work ever. We are all very happy with the product pipeline. The team here has an unparalleled breadth and depth of talent and innovation that Steve has driven in the company, and excellence has become a habit. And so we feel very, very confident about the future of the company."
And while the holiday season buying frenzy is over, and Apple may see a decline in sales of both Mac’s and iPods, the iPhone’s future is nothing but bright, as 2 huge developments are in the works.
The first big event announced being the iPhones launch onto the Verizon network and their potential 93.2 Million customers…
And the second being the potential February launch of their White iPhone (which believe it or not, is just a color. No additional upgrades).
These two launches could see Apple’s iPhone sales increase by a huge margin…
I posed the question yesterday, “Is now the time to buy Apple?”
Well, keeping all the information in mind, I think quoting the King, Mr. Elvis Aaron Presley, is apropos…
“It’s now or never…”
