IPO日期：2012年4月27日

    总部位于路易斯安那州巴吞鲁日的Edgen主营为石油天然气行业生产零部件。IPO每股11美元，首日开盘报10.35美元，下跌5.9%，当日收盘跌14%。

    就在这家公司公布销售额创新高，并且第二季度有望盈利时，公司业绩遭遇重击：提前偿债造成1,510万美元损失，股权相关薪酬支出300万美元。此后，这只股票一蹶不振——IPO 完成6个月后，该股仍比IPO价格低30%。

    IPO date: 4/27/2012

    The Baton Rouge, Louisiana-based oil and gas industry parts maker Edgen (EDG) had an IPO price of $11 a share but the stock opened at $10.35, down 5.9%, and closed its first day down 14%.

    Even though the company was posting record sales and was on course to show a profit in the second quarter, earnings took a huge hit from a $15.1 million loss on prepayment of debt and $3 million in equity-based compensation charges. The stock never recovered -- 6 months later it was 30% below the offering price.
