Freelancer Floats on the Australian Securities Exchange

On Friday November 15, Freelancer officially listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) under the ticker FLN.

This is a big step forward for the company and we could not have done it without each and every one of you. We have recognised how important our members are and as a result we would like to welcome everyone to become an owner in the company and share in its success. We have set up the Foundation Shareholder Program which will provide additional benefits to Freelancer members who also hold a minimum of 1000 shares in the company. Visit our Foundation Shareholder Program page for more information.

We had a fantastic debut on the ASX. Shares were issued in the General Offer at AU$0.50 and opened strong at AU$2.50 before closing at 220% at AU$1.60. Follow the journey at our Investor Page.

We have a lot of work ahead of us and we are excited for what the future holds. Thank you for sharing this experience with us.
