IRVING, Texas, Feb. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- i2 Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: ITWO) today announced their decision not to proceed with the previously announced intention to offer up to $200 million in convertible subordinated debt, due to the recent softness in equity markets impacting the conversion price of the offering.
"We did not need the cash immediately so we felt no pressure to consummate the offering," said Sanjiv Sidhu, CEO of i2 Technologies. "The offering was oversubscribed but technology stocks weakened after we announced it. We therefore felt it was best not to execute the offering at this time. We remain committed to our strategy of market leadership and growth."
