Australia s Virgin Blue has closed its initial public offering IPO more than 10 times oversubscribed, and the final price set for the share sale values the airline at A$2.3 billion $1.7 billion . The low-fare carrier s shares are due to begin trading on the Australian Stock Exchange on 8 December. Shares were priced at A$2.25, and the policy used for allocation means there will be a split of around two-thirds institutional shareholders to one-third retail shareholders. What has yet to be determined is what percentage of the company will be on a so-called free float . A spokeswoman says from Sydney that the Virgin Group has yet to decide whether it will exercise an option to sell more shares than originally anticipated. The spokeswoman adds that if the Virgin Group sells down to the full extent , the total free float will be 29%. It will also leave the Virgin Group with 2
