About Beamr Imaging and It's IPO
Beamr Imaging Ltd is an innovator of video encoding, transcoding and optimization solutions that enable high quality, performance, and unmatched bitrate efficiency for video and images
For its IPO, BMR agreed to offer 1.95 million shares at a price of $4.00 per share, with an insider lock-up period of 180 days, ending on August 27, 2023.
An insider lock-up period is a period of time after a company first goes public where major shareholders are not allowed to sell their shares. The insider lock-up period makes sure that the market does not get oversupplied with shares of the company.
Traders may short the stock leading up to the lockup-period expiration date in hopes that the price will fall due to an increase in supply of shares. Retail traders should be watching this stock's short interest as it moves closer to lockup expiration.
