"萨班斯法案"并未完全阻当住中国企业赴美IPO的步伐
China's MicroPort Medical seeks $150 mln in U.S. IPO
Thu Jul 27, 2006 5:15am ET
SHANGHAI, July 27 (Reuters) - China's MicroPort Medical (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. is preparing a U.S. initial public offering worth up to $150 million, in the latest of a string of Chinese companies making their way to market in the United States.
The offering, expected to raise $100 million to $150 million, is expected to debut in the fourth quarter of this year or in early 2007, one source familiar with the deal said on Thursday, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Morgan Stanley (MS.N: Quote, Profile, Research) and UBS (UBSN.VX: Quote, Profile, Research) are handling the Shanghai-based medical device maker's IPO, the source said.
The offering will occur in the United States, said another source, declining to be more specific.
Similar companies have typically listed on the Nasdaq, although the New York Stock Exchange has become more aggressive in the last year, scoring its first major deal -- a $400 million IPO by solar cell maker Suntech Power (STP.N: Quote, Profile, Research) -- last December.
The Nasdaq is also home to one other Chinese medical device maker, China Medical Technology (CMED.O: Quote, Profile, Research), which raised $96 million in an IPO last August. China Medical's shares have risen nearly 40 percent since the offering.
MicroPort is one of about a half-dozen Chinese firms lining up for U.S. IPOs in the months ahead, following a relatively slow start to 2006 that saw only two Chinese companies list on the Nasdaq in the first half of the year.
Other companies that have hired investment banks and have begun the IPO process include: ATA Testing Authority, a provider of testing services; Acorn International, which runs a TV shopping network and wants to raise $200 million; and solar cell maker Yingli Solar, looking to raise about $400 million.
