WASHINGTON, Sept 2 (Reuters) - Ibis Technology Corp. (NasdaqNM:IBIS - News), which makes implantation equipment and wafers for the semiconductor industry, filed on Tuesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission (News - Websites) to sell 2 million common shares from time to time.
The Danvers, Massachusetts-based company plans to use the net proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including debt reduction, growth financing; product development; for capital expenditures; and acquisitions, it said in the shelf registration filing.
