International Steel Group to Launch IPO

International Steel Group, The USA’s second largest steel manufacturer intend to launch an IPO in the near future. In doing so they hope to raise $250 million to pay down debt due to their $1.5 billion acquisition of Bethlehem Steel.

While a date has not yet been set, they feel the time is right with steel tariffs having been put into place by the Bush Administration, and a forecast for the US steel industry that is improving. Add to this a stabilising of the market through consolidation of manufacturers.

Should the IPO take place, it would be the first major IPO since AK Steel in 1994, who raised $700 million.
