Biopolymer maker BioAmber raises $80m in IPO

摘要

BIOPLASTICS Sustainable chemical maker BioAmber raised $80m (?62.2m) in an initial public offering of its stock on 10 May. But the firm already is getting a taste of life as a public company, as its per-share stock price fell from $10 (?7.77) to $8 (?6.22) in its first five days of trading. US-based BioAmber produces bio-based succinic acid, which is a feedstock for bio-based polybutylene succinic polymers.
