With Market Cap of $120M, Internet Gold Expects That Its Shares Will be Included
in the TA-100 Index
PETACH TIKVA, Israel, February 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Internet Gold
(NASDAQ: IGLD - News) today announced that beginning March 1, 2005, its shares
will be dual-listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) as well as on the
NASDAQ National Market. Based on the Company's current market cap of
approximately $120 million, management of Internet Gold expects that the
Company's shares will be included in the TASE-100 Index.
Internet Gold is joining other successful firms such as Partner, Given Imaging
and Alvarion, currently traded on the TASE, for whom dual listing has led to
higher average trading volumes.
"The dual listing is one of the steps we are taking to strengthen our ties with
the Israeli investment community," said Mr. Eli Holtzman, Internet Gold's CEO.
"As one of Israel's leading communication companies, it is natural for us to
target local as well as international investors. With our shares trading on
Israeli as well as the NASDAQ National Market, it will be easier for all
interested investors to trade our stock, increasing the trading volume in our
shares and liquidity for all our shareholders."
