Vic, I bought Lawson this morning. I used to have an interest in a company who competed with Lawson. Btw ACN : ACCENTURE LTD A (NYSE) has doubled since its IPO. >Lawson Software raises $196 million in IPO Published Dec 7 2001 NEW YORK -- Lawson Software Inc., a maker of business-planning software, raised $196 million in its initial stock offering. Lawson Software and members of the founding Lawson family sold 14 million shares, as planned, at $14 each. That's the middle of the indicated $13 to $15 price range. Lehman Brothers managed the sale. Last month, Lawson lowered the terms of its offering to help attract investors still wary of technology stocks after an 18-month slump. Lawson initially had planned to raise up to $210 million by selling 13 million shares at $15 to $17. By increasing the number of shares on sale, Lawson also sold more of the company: 15.4 percent compared with 14.5 percent. The offering values the company at up to $1.4 billion, down from $1.5 billion. St. Paul-based Lawson sold 13.7 million shares in the offering and selling stockholders offered 325,000. The stockholders include Bill Lawson, the company's founder and former chairman, and his wife, Krystal. Lawson specializes in software systems for health care providers, retailers, financial services companies, professional services firms and government agencies. Lawson shares are to begin trading today on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol LWSN.
