Duoyuan Printing (DYP), a leading manufacturer of offset printing equipment in China, is expected to price their IPO this week.
Business Overview (from prospectus)
We are a Wyoming corporation and a leading offset printing equipment supplier in China, headquartered in Beijing. Through our principal operating subsidiary, Duoyuan Digital Press Technology Industries (China) Co., Ltd., or Duoyuan China, and
Duoyuan China’s manufacturing subsidiaries, namely Langfang Duoyuan Digital Technology Co., Ltd., or Langfang Duoyuan, and Hunan Duoyuan Printing Machinery Co., Ltd., or Hunan Duoyuan, we design, manufacture and sell offset printing equipment used in the offset printing process. The offset printing process includes the following three stages: (1) “pre-press,” which is the transfer of images to printing plates; (2) “press,” which is the transfer of images from printing plates to another media, such as paper; and (3) “post-press,” which is the last step of the offset printing process that includes cutting, folding, binding, collating and packaging. We manufacture one product under the pre-press product category (a computer-to-plate system, or CTP system) and fifteen products across four product lines under the press product category (single color small format presses, single color large format presses, multicolor small format presses and multicolor large format presses). We plan to begin commercial production and sale of certain post-press products, including a cold-set corrugated paper machine, which makes corrugated cardboard paper, by the end of 2010. In addition, we plan to begin commercial production and sale of two other post-press products, namely an automatic booklet maker and an automatic paper cutter, for which we have developed prototypes, in 2011.
Offering: 6.3 million shares at $8.50- $9.50 per share. Net proceeds of approximately $47.4 million will be used for capital expenditures, to improve and upgrade our existing manufacturing facilities and production lines and for general corporate purposes.
