Here is the key data for the GOOG IPO on Nasdaq.
http://www.nasdaq.com/markets/ipos/compa...
Google went public on Aug. 19, 2004. It was not an auspicious start. It ended up pricing 19.6 million shares at $85, the low end of its revised price expectation of $85-$95.
August 20th marks the 10th anniversary of Google’s initial public offering. I distinctly remember Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak (of all people…….) loudly proclaming how overpriced Google was. Anyway…….
+ The company has increased over ten-fold in value since the IPO;
+ The stock has never been below its IPO price;
+ There are 52,000 workers at Google now, a twenty-fold increase from the IPO;
+ The firm has gobbled up over 250 smaller companies over the past decade;
+ Only two companies on thet planet – Apple and Exxon – are worth more
This must be some kind of record to create one of the biggest companies in America in 10 years.
10 dollars but it was very hard to get a share on the IPO
did you googling for that answer?
