This IPO appears to be just what this sector needed to provide some perspective to fundamentals e.g. market cap, PSR, etc.
Telescan, (NASDAQ:TSCN) wallstreetcity.com a competitor sporting similar revenues, which just turned profitable Q2 ending June 30, 1997, has a market cap appx. 1/5 OMGA pursuant to this IPO pricing of $10-$12/share. Due to the fact TSCN has had no direct publicly-held competitor, it has been difficult for the street and the market to assign appropriate fundamental multiples.
OMGA is raising $40 million and is going out with an appx. $225 million market cap. Accordingly, TSCN would be a logical acquisition target given TSCN's fundamentals, market share, proprietary technologies, and wallstreeetcity.com's purported exponentially growing brand equity/hit rates/ and OEM strategic alliances. |
