Question:

Look up a recent IPO on biz.yahoo.com/ipo and then use the Edgar database to find the prospectus. (You may find it easiest to look up the company on finance.yahoo.com and use the link to SEC filings. In any case, finding the final prospectus can be a matter of trial and error.) Compare the IPO with that of Marvin. For example, who were the existing shareholders? Was the company raising more capital, or were existing shareholders selling? Were existing shareholders prevented by a lock-up agreement from selling more shares? How did the underwriting and other costs compare with those of Marvin? Did the underwriters have a greenshoe option? Did the issue turn out to be underpriced? (The Yahoo! website should help here.) If so, how much money was left on the table?
