After looking at their numbers I knew I sure wasn't going to buy their stock out of the gate! I suspect a number of institutional buyers, which would have been necessary for this to work well, probably felt the same. May also be another victim of the Facebook IPO debacle.
As I recall this is their fourth IPO attempt. Maybe Gibson will beat them to the wire after all!
