NetSuite on Wednesday set the initial price of its stock at $26, greatly exceeding its original estimate.The company is selling 6.2 million shares of stock. It said in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that the proceeds from the sale would net it $151.9 million after expenses.NetSuite, which sells a line of hosted business software, company initially set the suggested price range for its stock at $13 to $16, and&#160;subsequently raised it&#160;to $16 to $19 and&#160;then $19 to $22. The stock is now trading on New York Stock Exchange under the symbol &quot;N.&quot; After rising to $39.01, shares had dropped to $25.76 at 10 a.m. Eastern Time.The company set the price by running an&#160;online &quot;Dutch&quot; auction, in the same fashion of search giant Google, instead of having underwriters set the price.Scott Sweet, managing director of IPOboutique.com, a firm that tracks the IPO market and offers investment advice, said NetSuite is greatly overvalued as a result of the auction.&quot;Once again the Dutch auction concept failed to live up to its self-described mantra as being a better conduit in the pricing of an IPO by the investors than the standard method of pricing by the underwriters,&quot; he said in an e-mail message Thursday. &quot;In past Dutch auction deals, and it appears the same in this case, investors put in overzealous high bids to &#39;beat&#39; others in a scramble to get shares. In doing so, it is highly likely that it has greatly diminished the IPO&#39;s performance and highly overvalued the company.&quot;NetSuite has said it plans to use proceeds from its IPO to pay off an $8 million balance on a line of credit with Tako Ventures, an entity controlled by Oracle CEO Larry Ellison, and to possibly make acquisitions.Ellison controls about 60 percent of NetSuite&#39;s outstanding stock -- some 31.9 million shares.NetSuite said Wednesday that Ellison has now completed the transfer of those shares into a holding company, NetSuite Restricted Holdings. The move is meant to &quot;effectively eliminate&quot; Ellison&#39;s voting power and avoid potential conflicts of interests, NetSuite said.
