| Taleo Raises Capital, But Where's the Growth? Zachary Scheidt submits: As equity markets continue to march higher, and investors are still willing to commit capital to growth opportunities, a number of small companies are seizing the opportunity to sell stock and raise permanent capital. I can’t disagree with the strategy, as the liquidity window may only be open for a short time (at current prices), but a few deals have raised the question as to whether investors are wise in committing this capital. Two weeks ago, Taleo Corp. (TLEO) was able to raise more than $125 million by offering 6.5 million shares to the public. Actually the underwriters exercised their option to purchase another 975,000 shares, so the proceeds are closer to $140 million. While traditionally, small companies will use capital from a secondary offering to pay down debt, or to fund a merger or business investment, Taleo noted that they “intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes…” Essentially, investors are giving management a blank check worth up to $140 million with very few documented plans.Complete Story » seekingalpha.com |
