Birkenstock goes public on New York Stock Exchange_我的网站
A | 北京时间8月18日，闹得沸沸扬扬的快船“阴阳合同”事件迎来戏剧性转折。 Birkenstock took a big step forward on Wall Street this week, taking the nearly 250-year-old German shoe and sandal maker public.The footwear, often seen as a counter culture shoe for hippies, and in more recent years influencers, has become must-have footwear for many people, but Birkenstock's Initial Public Offering, or IPO, which was originally priced at $46 per share, didn't attract the dress shoe-wearing stock brokers on Wednesday.Shares opened at $41, near the lower end of its expected range of $44 to $49 set a week prior, as Birkenstock CEO Oliver Reichert rang the opening bell in a room surrounded by traders sporting the opened-toed footwear and others waving the sandals in the air.Birkenstock Holding Ltd. sold nearly 10.8 million shares in the offering, which raised about $495 million on the day. Its shareholders sold an additional 21.5 million shares, according to the Associated Press."Through the strong reputation and universal appeal of our brand -- enabling extensive word-of-mouth exposure and outsized earned media value -- we have efficiently built a growing global fanbase of millions of consumers that uniquely transcends geography, gender, age and income," Birkenstock said in a recent regulatory filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, according to the AP.What started out in 1774 as a somewhat frumpy, but functional arch support sandal has transformed into a cult fashion item and billion dollar business, bolstered with support from the recent blockbuster hit "Barbie" when Margot Robbie's character is forced to choose between high heels or the strappy suede footwear.In tandem with the opening on Wall Street, Birkenstock hosted three consumer activations in public parks throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn.To highlight New York as "the city that never stops walking," the brand created what it dubbed "Birkenfields" for a public sensory experience that explored the brand's nearly 250-year heritage and expertise in foot health.The global brand is deeply rooted in foot health maintenance as well as a family tradition of shoemaking: Its inventor sought to provide function, quality and tradition as Birkenstock's core values.Over 95% of Birkenstock products are assembled in Germany with more than 90% of their materials and components sourced from Europe, ensuring the brand meets "the highest environmental and social standards in the industry by operating state-of-the-art scientific laboratories for materials testing," according to a company press release.。ESPN多位名记联合报道，NBA联盟经过长达11个月的调查，目前没有发现证据证明快船老板鲍尔默通过球队赞助商向科怀伦纳德输送资金以规避工资帽。 在今天凌晨，快船官方迅速发表正式声明，全盘否认所有指控。并声明承认曾将伦纳德引荐给球队商业伙伴，但强调这是联盟常规操作；所有商业合作均基于正常商业标准；核心事实是快船从未向伦纳德输送资金，也从未在正式合同外提供任何未公开酬劳。 然而事件在今天清晨又再次反转，ESPN报道发出后不久，NBA官方发言人迈克巴斯发表声明严厉驳斥，指出ESPN的报道“包含大量且重大的不实之处”，NBA官方甚至拒绝配合该报道。
B | 官方强调调查仍在进行中，明确结果将在结束后公布。 这场风波的起因要追溯到2025年9月。当时记者Pablo Torre报道称，伦纳德与一家现已破产的绿色银行Aspiration签下4年2800万美元代言合同。由于鲍尔默曾向该公司投资数千万美元，外界怀疑这是快船绕过工资帽向伦纳德输送资金的“阴阳合同”。随后调查范围扩大至至少另外三家与快船有业务往来的公司，包括快船主场巨幕制造商Daktronics。 今年7月下旬，联盟向快船提交了初步调查结果，双方代表近日一直在进行“有时相当激烈”的谈判。与此同时，快船7月1日同意将伦纳德交易至猛龙的1换7大交易目前被迫搁置，猛龙担心承担伦纳德可能面临的任何处罚风险，联盟已明确告知猛龙需自行承担后续结果对伦纳德的直接影响。 值得注意的是，鲍尔默态度异常强硬，他在与密友的交谈中坚称不会接受联盟认定他或球队有意规避工资帽的调查结果，会将此事提交仲裁。一旦进入仲裁程序，整个事件的解决时间可能被进一步拉长。 上赛季伦纳德代表快船出战65场常规赛，场均27.9分6.4篮板3.6助攻，三项命中率分别为50.5%/38.7%/89.2%，这位两届FMVP得主的未来，如今悬而未决，但猛龙跟快船这边交易应该会如期进行的！ 从目前来看，ESPN称“查无实据”，NBA官方说“报道不实”，快船坚称“清白” ，三方各执一词，调查尚未结束，真相仍在路上。
