Like Us On Wall Street – Facebook Files For IPO

Facebook Announced Today That It Had Filed The Necessary S-1 Regulatory Documents With The U.S. Securities And Exchange Commission (SEC) (note; see the filing at the bottom of this post). In About 3 Months We Will See The New ‘FB’ Ticker Symbol Become Available For Look-Up Within Stock Exchanges, Most Likely NASDAQ Since It Should Be Considered A Tech Stock.

 

Facebook Is Expecting To Raise $5 Billion With Its IPO (Initial Public Offering). Since Facebook Is Estimated To Be Worth Between $75 Billion And $100 Billion I Would Expect A Much Higher IPO Than The $10 Per Share That Zynga (ZNGA) Was Released At Just Over A Month Ago.

 

According to TechCrunch, On Private Markets, Shares Of Facebook Were Recently Trading Around $35.50. Thus, Giving Facebook A Valuation Of About $84-Billion Currently.

 

Facebook Is Expected To Release What Would Equate To About 10% Of The Company. Mark Zuckerberg Will Continue To Be The Company’s Largest Shareholder. Mr Zuckerberg Owns About 28.4% Of Facebook’s Shares.

With The New Timeline Still Looming For Many Facebook User And Rumors Floating Around About Facebook Possibly Going To Start Charging For It’s Use, How Will Facebook’s Users Respond? 

 

This Video, From CBS NEWS, Tries To Answer Some Of These Questions And More.
