Lashou delays US$100m Nasdaq IPO

CHINA'S daily deal website Lashou has canceled its US$100 million initial public offering in the United States due to unfavorable market conditions.

Lashou Group Inc said this in a filing to the US Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday. It had planned to sell about 5.4 million shares at US$13 to US$15 apiece on Nasdaq, according to an initial prospectus filed in October.

In a research note yesterday, China e-Business Research Center said: "Lashou is not likely to sell its shares at a very high price during a weak financial market, and the sluggish performance of Groupon, the Nasdaq-listed US daily deal site, will also prevent Lashou from a good performance."

Groupon has been trading near US$11 recently, compared with the company's offering price of US$20 in November.
