Up to 12.75 million shares or 30 percent of total 42.5 million initial shares were put up for public subscription until Wednesday. Its seven underwriters - securities firms KB, Daishin, Mirae Asset, Shinyoung, and HI, plus Shinhan and Hana financial investment companies – drew 32 trillion won ($27 billion) on the first day. Retail deposits vying for initial shares hit 114.1 trillion won ($96 billion) by the deadline on 4 p.m.
Half of the available shares are allotted on a pro-rata basis to distribute shares in proportion to subscription amount. The other half will be distributed equally among all investors who have made a minimum application of 10 shares in case subscription is less than or equal to the offered volume. When oversubscription happens, a computerized lucky draw will be made for share allotment.
If total retail subscription comes below 2.65 million, investors would be able to receive 2 to 3 shares under the equal distribution basis. Given near 4.2 million subscribers, nearly half may not get any.
After record-setting institutional bids coming to over 2,000 to one competition ratio, the IPO also raises the bar high in public subscription. The last biggest retail-hit IPO was SKIET that drew 81 trillion won worth retail deposits for initial shares.
The landmark IPO was easily priced at the top-end 300,000 won per piece to raise 12.75 trillion won for the world¡¯s No. 2 EV battery supplier out to more than double its capacity across the globe through the new proceeds. The book-building last week drew 15,203 trillion won from institutions at home and abroad.
The main Kospi has been losing nearly 4 percent and Kosdaq 5 percent since last Thursday as investors cashed out ahead of the arrival of the mega newcomer who could instantly make No. 2 on the Kospi if it debuts on Jan. 27 at doubled IPO price.
