China Sports International, which makes sports shoes and clothes, plans to raise $74.7 million in net proceeds through its initial price offering (IPO). The China-based firm priced its IPO at 80 cents a share, which is the top end of its 70-80 cents indicative range. It will offer 100 million new shares, representing 29.7 per cent of the enlarged share capital. Three million shares will be issued through public offer, while the remainder will be through private placement. The firm - which will have a market value of $269.5 million - aims to become among the top 10 sporting brands in China over the next two years as it expands into the domestic market, boosted by its new product line of thermal shoes, chief executive officer Lin Shaoxiong said in an interview last week. 'We expect the new product to boost our sales and profits significantly, as the margins are higher,' said Mr Lin in Mandarin
