ASX aspirant oOh!Media has repriced its initial public offer, as foreshadowed by Street Talk Online on Wednesday.
oOh!Media’s raising has been re-cut to 7.5 times earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation on an enterprise value basis or $1.93 a share.
The original range was 8.2 to 8.8 times EBITDA, which would have given it a market value of up to $353.7 million.
