Brazil IPO Delayed by IMC Because of ‘Unfavorable’ Conditions

Finance World News Update by EQUITIES Magazine

International Meal Company Holdings SA delayed a Brazilian initial public offering, attributing the choice to ‘unfavorable’ conditions in international and domestic markets.

 

The Miami-based operator of restaurant chains in Latin America was planning to raise up to $542 million by selling 57.1 million shares in the IPO. The IPO would have been Brazil’s seventh this year as companies use the Bovespa index’s best rally since 2003 to unload shares.
