☆ Japan chip tool maker Kokusai Electric raises $724 mln in IPO

TOKYO, Oct 16 (Reuters) - Chip equipment maker Kokusai Electric (6525.T) has raised $724.4 million after pricing its shares at the top end of their marketed range in Japan's largest initial public offering in five years. Kokusai, owned by U.S. private equity firm KKR (KKR.N), set its IPO price at 1,840 yen per share, according to a filing on Monday, valuing the company at 423.9 billion yen ($2.8 billion). If an overallotment option for domestic investors is exercised, the offering would raise roughly $833 million. The move was partly due to a lacklustre share price performance by chip designer Arm since its listing last month, a source familiar with the matter has said. Kokusai's largest customers are Samsung Electronics (005930.KS), TSMC (2330.TW) and Micron Technology (MU.O), collectively accounting for more than 40% of its revenue.

At Kokusai's indicative price of 1,890 yen per share, the company will offer 111.2 billion yen ($749.88 million) worth of shares and have a market value of 435.5 billion yen. A successful listing would follow the blockbuster New York IPO of SoftBank-owned chip designer Arm , which investors hoped would lead to a wave of stock market launches. IPO activity has remained strong in Japan, where the stock market is at 33-year highs and interest rates ultra low. Kokusai reported operating profit fell by a fifth to 56 billion yen in the year ended March compared to the same period a year earlier. Sales were roughly flat at 245.7 billion yen.
