Accelerated Networks revs up for
debut

By Tiffany Kary ZDII


Broadband access equipment maker Accelerated
Networks (Nasdaq: ACCL) priced its IPO at $15 a share
Friday, above its range of $11-13. The range of the 4
million shares was revised upward from an original $9 to
$11 a share.

Nominated Renaissance Capital's IPO of the week, the
company has a hot technology that enables service
providers to deliver both voice and data services to a
customer over a single circuit. This ability is appealing
to network providers who have focused exclusively on
voice or data services and are looking to expand their
offerings.

Like most young companies, Accelerated Networks'
sales are concentrated in a few companies; sales to to
CTC Communications Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: CPTL),
FirstWorld Communications and Siemens ICN,
accounted for approximately 54 percent, 20 percent and
16 percent of total revenue, respectively, for fiscal 1999.
Siemens, also a customer, owns 20 percent of the
company. The company is currently undergoing product
trials at networking giants US West (NYSE: USW),
AT&T (NYSE: T) and MCI WorldCom (Nasdaq:
WCOM).

The company has a limited operating history, and is
racking up losses. Incorporated in October 1996, the
company did not begin shipping our products in volume
until June 1999. For the fiscal year ended December
31, 1999, revenue was $8.5 million, and a net loss,
$21.2 million. As of March 31, the company had an
accumulated deficit of about $51.2 million.

Qualstar's top competitor's include Alcatel (NYSE:
ALA), Cisco (Nasdaq: CSCO), Copper Mountain
(Nasdaq: CMTN), Nortel (NYSE: NT) and Lucent
(NYSE: LU).

The deal's lead underwriter is CS First Boston;
Co-managers include Dain Rauscher and Warburg
Dillon Read.
