The IPO is going to be massive: The initial document filed with the SEC indicates that Alibaba
plans to raise $1 billion, but that figure is seen as just a placeholder. Analysts have said it could haul in more than the $16 billion Facebook raised in 2012.
and if it increases further, Alibaba could be a contender for the largest IPO in U.S. history. Analysts think the whole company could be worth more than $170 billion, and some sky-high estimates are now pushing $200 billion.
Founder Jack Ma is one very rich former English teacher: One of Alibaba' s biggest assets is Ma, who has stepped down as CEO but remains chairman of the company. Before founding Alibaba, Ma was twice rejected from a teaching college and was even turned away by a local KFC restaurant.
Related: Alibaba founders fund mega charity ahead of IPO
Ma is ranked China' s 29th richest man with a net worth of over $4 billion, according to the Hurun Rich List.
Alibaba has challenges, too: For all the plaudits, Alibaba is not without blemish. Of particular concern are the number of counterfeit goods sold in its marketplaces, and the company' s commitment to sound corporate governance.
Hong Kong is preferred destination for many of China' s top companies seeking to go public, but Alibaba
chose to list in New York after Hong Kong regulators refused to allow the company' s partners to appoint board members.
The company' s SEC filing lists only three directors that will remain as the company begins final IPO preparations: Ma, Alibaba CEO Joe Tsai and Softbank (
SFTBF) CEO Masayoshi Son. Alibaba says it will eventually have nine board members, but their identities are not yet known.
Alibaba -- like all tech companies -- must also work to adapt as consumers abandon desktop computing and shift to mobile devices.
In addition, the company must effectively manage relations with the Chinese govt, which has not developed clear regulations for some services offered by Alibaba.

teeth53 thot - The Alibaba effect will rub off into successful IPOs effect..in regional bourses here.
E-commerce behemoth Alibaba filed in the U.S. on Tuesday to sell stock to the public for the first time, in an embrace of the global capital markets that represents a coming of age for the booming Chinese Internet industry.
&ldquo Alibaba is the fastest-growing Internet company in one of the fastest-growing economies in the world,&rdquo said Sameet Sinha, an analyst with B. Riley & Co, a boutique investment bank in Los Angeles. &ldquo They are like
Amazon, an
eBay, and a PayPal.&rdquo
Alibaba said it intended to raise $1 billion in an initial public offering &ndash a figure used to calculate its registration fee. But the company is expected ultimately to raise $15 billion to $20 billion &ndash which would make it the biggest American I.P.O. since
Facebook&rsquo s $16 billion offering May 2012.
When it makes its debut on either the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq market, Alibaba is also expected to have a share price that could value the company at roughly $200 billion &mdash more than the market value of Facebook, Amazon.com or eBay, although still trailing that of
Google of
Apple.

Lotte Shopping Co said it is postponing the listing of an up to US$1 billion real estate investment trust in Singapore, underscoring lacklustre appetite for IPOs in the city state.
The operator of South Korea' s largest department store chain said in a regulatory filing it may reconsider the option if global financial market conditions improve, but is currently looking at a sale and lease back deal through a local public real estate fund as an alternative.

What U looking for in IPO-ing.... Happi for long term player's, just leave it2the BBs. (at best STAG...Pacific Radiance n Ezion is comparable, but if were think if Li ka shing flagship port trust.
Me think is more for POSH to collect their money back n also allow BBs to participate n a chance for them to hit n run when they assume trading (six mths-lock up period), once their TP target reach...before n after their lock up...happi speculating.
Just sharing my thot n promoting IPOing stk / shr trading interest in SJ.

Today published in ST invest, page -33 " What to look out up in IPO prospectus" Sundaytimes take a look on five areas to focus on, to suss out if an offering will be a dud or a star performer.
Just re-freshing and taking a look. A guide to applying for local IPOs.
IPO fever, do your financial homework 1st to avoid getting burnt.
|
Prospectus (managing risk & don get caught investing blindly, an understanding the value of investing).
Financial ratios (Look for px to PE ratio, px to NTA value, dividend policy, gross, net profit margins & returns on equity).
Usage of IPO proceeds (proceeds for working capital and expansion or be use to clear debt).
Market Sentiment (Bullish or none-bullish business enviroment on it IPO's listing).
Earnings track record (watch for past earning over last 2-3 years, no sudden record performance in sales and profits).
Pricing (a key indicator on share price performance. PER-lower ratio the better it share value the share price offers).
Strategy: Buy and hold, buy and sell or buy and stag ? (stagging-selling IPO shares on the 1st trading day).
Outlook for IPO market (25% more than in yr 2005, bullish 60 IPOs was listed in SGX, raised a mind-boggling $7.6 bil).

Maybulk to gain from POSH listing.
AFTER a slight delay, the listing of PACC Offshore Services Holdings (POSH) &ndash Malaysian Bulk Carriers Bhd&rsquo s (Maybulk) 21.23% associate &ndash is finally getting off the ground.
Although the details are scarce, it is becoming increasingly clear that Maybulk stands to pocket a tidy sum from the exercise.
RHB Research Institute upgraded the stock to a &ldquo buy&rdquo from &ldquo neutral&rdquo yesterday with a target price of RM2.48, following its &ldquo slightly better&rdquo earnings report card for 2013.
The brokerage also sees a &ldquo solid recovery&rdquo in Maybulk&rsquo s heretofore loss-making dry bulk segment, and it thinks the stock could be a cheaper and earlier entry into POSH&rsquo s initial public offering (IPO).
Depending on the terms of the share sale, there is a potential for special dividends as well.
&ldquo We have no confirmation on whether Maybulk will divest its stake in the unit through this listing. Should this be the case, the gains could be paid out as dividends or utilised for more vessel acquisitions in the future.
&ldquo We think this catalyst has, to a certain extent, re-rated Maybulk&rsquo s valuation of late,&rdquo RHB Research transport analyst Ahmad Maghfur Usman says in a report.
AVoid penny stocks!
