Could 2015 go down in history as the year of the boring sharemarket listings?
The rash of initial public offerings (IPOs) that took place over 2013 and 2014 included high-profile state-owned enterprises Mighty River Power, Genesis Energy and Meridian Energy.
There have also been many whizz-bang technology floats, including Orion Health, Wynyard Group, Vista Group, Eroad, Serko and ikeGPS.
The confirmed and potential IPOs we've heard about this year are a little less sexy. Auckland-based freight and logistics operator Fliway Group is looking to raise up to $44.5 million through an IPO and NZX listing, expected to take place on April 9.
The pricing of the Fliway offer - from an indicative range of $1.20 to $1.40 - was scheduled to be established through a bookbuild with institutions and brokers yesterday, although a market source said it still had not been set by mid-afternoon.
