Aston Martin Lagonda, the maker of James Bond's favourite sports car, plans to raise as much as 1.27 billion pounds (USD 1.67 billion) when it sells shares to investors for the first time.
The luxury carmaker says it will sell a 25 per cent stake for between 17.50 pounds and 22.50 pounds a share, valuing the company at as much as 5.07 billion pounds (USD 6.7 billion).
Aston Martin said Thursday the exact price would be set around October 3.
The company says Daimler will remain a shareholder and won't reduce its 4.9 percent stake for 12 months.
Aston Martin CEO Andy Palmer says the share sale "will provide investors with a fitting opportunity to participate in our future success."
