Nasdaq expects GlobeImmune IPO Friday

LOUISVILLE – Biopharmaceutical company GlobeImmune Inc.’s initial public offering is expected to occur Friday, June 27, according to the Nasdaq exchange’s online rundown of upcoming IPOs.

The Louisville-based company initially filed for the IPO in March, but reduced the amount of shares offered in May from nearly 2.2 million to 1,562,500.

Pricing is expected to be in the $15 to $17 range, meaning the offering could be worth a little more than $30 million at the high end of the range if over-allotted shares are included. The company will list on the Nasdaq exchange under the ticker symbol GBIM.
