Two IPOs came to market this week with mixed success.
Athenex Inc (Nasdaq: ATNX) priced a full-size deal at the low-end of the range, $11.00, and opened with a $1.00 premium at first trade. The heavily insider-backed offering traded well in its opening week as ‘ATNX’ hit a first week high of $13.88 or 26.1% above the offering price. IPO Boutique rated the offering a ‘3’…or a moderate BUY… and premium subscribers were kept in the loop with underwriter guidance along with our analysis. Motif was a selling group in the Athenex offering and were able to offer investors of all size a piece of the ‘ATNX’ deal at the offering price.
