Facebook has its IPO, expected in early 2012 not yet officially
announced - but already there are conflicting reports as to whether he
is moved to the end of the year. Only the Financial Times reported on
Wednesday evening, the world's largest online network in the fall of
next year would go public. Shortly after it was announced at the New
York Times, Facebook remains on track for an IPO in the first half of
2012. Both newspapers relied on their reports to people familiar with
the company.
The interest in the Facebook IPO is huge for months. The online network
is credited with an enterprise value of $ 100 billion. If one calculates
the value today on the basis of traded shares on the secondary market of
investors and employees, it would exceed 70 billion dollars.
Facebook had its IPO, although never officially attached to a specific
date. But he has been generally expected in the first half of 2012, as
well as heading the world's largest online network in the number of
shareholders to an order of magnitude, which requires a U.S. company to
disclose its figures. Now, the Financial Times, founder and CEO Mark
Zuckerberg wants to wait until September next year, so that the staff
focused more on product development rather than trading stocks. There
was no response to the current stock market weakness.
Zuckerberg was always reluctant to share control of his company. He had
already come out in the early years-billion takeover offers and was so
far back with an IPO, because Facebook has more leeway. However, it is
foreseeable that the American company rules force the company to go
public at the end.
