14 DAY TRIAL // Among all makers of computer gaming hardware, Corsair is a particularly well-known brand vendor, being involved in a whole bunch of different market segments, like DRAM, cases and power supplies.
That said, one would think the company is doing well for itself. This is not the case though.
Corsair wants to raise $78 million (€60 million) somehow and the means it chose was an initial public offering (IPO), with a share price of $13 / €10.
In layman terms, Corsair wants to let another company buy it.
The one that it is supposedly in talks with is Francisco Partners, a venture capital company focused on tech startups.
Francisco Partners was part of the consortium that wanted to acquire Dell, led by Blackstone Group.
There are some who think Corsair and Francisco Partners are looking into alternatives to a buyout as well.
