InfoVista went public on July 7, 2000, offering price of €12.8 per share or $12.23 per American Depository Receipt (ADR). InfoVista trades on the Compartment C (small caps) of Paris Eurolist by Euronext under the ISIN number FR0004031649.
InfoVista also used to trade on NASDAQ Global Market under the ticker symbol IVTA as an American Depository Receipt. However, on February 9, 2007, InfoVista announced that it will voluntarily delist its ADRs from the NASDAQ with trading in the ADRs to be terminated as of the close of trading on February 20, 2007. The Company’s decision to delist from NASDAQ is based on the low trading volume of its ADRs and the increasingly high cost of maintaining dual listings on NASDAQ and the Euronext stock markets.
