Answer 1

underwriting percent 6.33%

underwriting fee $7,980,000

net proceeds $118,020,000

underpricing $14,280,000 (1.36 per share)

mark cap: $1,142,139,319

Step-by-step explanation:

First day

10,500,000 shares

price $ 12

underwritting $ 0.76

net $ 11.24

.76/12 = 19/300 =6.33%

10,500,00 x 0.76 = 7,980,000 underwriting fee

10,500,00 x 11.24 = 118,020,000 net proceeds

underpricing 13.36 - 12 = 1.36 per share

mark cap: 1,142,139,319

85,489,470 x 13.36 = 1,142,139,319
