Jenny Rosberg, Senior Vice President at NASDAQ OMX commented on AVTECH Sweden’s listing in a press release yesterday from First North:
“We are excited to welcome this year’s first listing at First North, where we experienced a strong inflow of companies in 2011 in spite of turbulent markets. AVTECH operates in a market with tremendous growth potential and will make a great addition to our Nordic and international members looking for investment opportunities in the Technology sector.”
David Alvord, CEO at AVTECH, summarized the day at closing:
“We are very pleased to be able to announce that in the first day of trading the AVTECH share price rose from the original price of 6,00 SEK and closed at 7,00 SEK, thus up 16,7% from our IPO last November. We are now looking forward to leveraging our listing in order to expand the ownership of AVTECH to an international investor audience and thus support continued expansion of our operations.”
