Google’s early Valentine
Breaking down the lockup, and giving investors the jitters.
January 20, 2005
For newly public Google, it’s time to take off the training wheels. On Valentine’s Day, the company will open the gate for insider sales of its hot stock.
After the company made its IPO, it restricted its employees, officers, and some investors from selling their shares. This is a typical practice—most public companies “lock up” insider shares for six months after the IPO to prevent sales from driving down the share price. Google decided to let its lockup expire in pieces. On February 14, the fifth and final lockup expires, potentially putting some 177 million shares on the market and more than doubling the company’s float.
Of course a handful of high-level Google insiders have already done well for themselves by selling shares. Founder Sergey Brin made almost $190 million selling shares and his partner, Larry Page, pulled in $110 million. CEO Eric Schmidt made almost $90 million. But all said and done, the three have only sold 3 million shares, a small fraction of the employee sales that will be possible starting February 14.
The economics of supply and demand would dictate a huge drop in share price if—and that’s a big if—employees glutted the market with Google stock. The company founders, however, decided to dyke the flood before the lockups expired, committing to a programmed divestiture schedule that keeps the majority of their shares off the market.
This should make investors feel better. Mr. Page, Mr. Brin, and Mr. Schmidt together hold about 90.5 million shares, or about a third of the total. Together, they’ve agreed to sell 16.6 million shares over the next 18 months, a fraction of what they could put on the market. This decreases the potential number of Google shares going live to a little over 103 million, which is still a huge amount considering only a little over 127 million shares are available for public trading today. Google did not return calls requesting comment.
Despite their apparent restraint, Google executives have sold hundreds of millions of dollars of stock. They planned most of these sales in advance, so as to prevent the appearance of trading on insider information. But when you’re dealing in a stock bumping around $200, the wealth seems staggering. Still, as Mark LoPresti, a senior quantitative analyst for Thomson Financial, points out, the executives own so many shares that the recent insider sales are “just a zit on the face” of their total holdings.
There is also an upside to having more shares on the market. Google’s stock price has been jumpy and volatile—symptoms of its illiquidity. When a big investor trades a chunk of Google stock, all the other investors feel the effects. Having more shares available “should make the stock less volatile, and that should add to the value of the shares,” said Standard & Poor’s Internet equity analyst Scott Kessler. Besides, the number of shares available to the public doesn’t change the fact that Google earned $52 million in the third quarter of last year.
Insider sales making you nervous?
Most of these sales were planned in November and represent only a fraction of the total stake these insiders own.

Presidential performance
Taylor Eigsti, a 15-year-old jazz pianist featured on the August 4 cover of the Almanac, performed for President Clinton Friday night at the Atherton home of Novell CEO Eric Schmidt and his wife Wendy. Taylor is a sophomore at Woodside Priory School in Portola Valley, and studies music with Cole Dalton of Menlo Park.
Reuters reported that President Clinton stayed overnight Friday with real estate magnate and Democratic donor Walter Shorenstein of Portola Valley.
Live from Woodside
CNBC's "Power Lunch" program, transformed into "Power Brunch," will broadcast live from Silicon Valley all this week, including a segment Tuesday morning from Buck's restaurant in Woodside, featuring Cisco Systems CEO John Chambers; Cypress Semiconductor Chairman and CEO T.J. Rogers; E*Trade Chairman Christos Cotsakos; eFax.com Chairman and CEO Edward Prince; and Wall Street Journal Internet reporter Kara Swisher. The investment program airs on NBC's cable network from 9 to 11 a.m.
How sweet it is
Veterans at hospitals in Menlo Park and Palo Alto will shortly be experiencing a little more sweetness in their lives, thanks to the efforts of Menlo Park resident Olga Curusis.
Ms. Curusis, who is a board member of the Menlo Park chapter of the American Association of Retired Persons, petitioned local confectionery See's Candies to donate sweets to the veterans. "Something just made me do it," she said. "These boys served their country, and many of them are bedridden or in chronic pain. I thought if I could just make them smile for a few minutes, that might help."
After pleading unsuccessfully with factory staff, Ms. Curusis said she went straight to the top. "I called the president of See's, who lives right here in Woodside, and a week later the letter came," she said.
President Charles N. Huggins said he will donate two cartons of lollypops and one carton of Krispys candies valued at $707 every month.
The candy will be divided among the three hospitals within the VA system, at Menlo Park, Palo Alto, and Livermore. There are approximately 300 in-patients at each of the three hospitals, with about 9,000 people coming to the hospital for outpatient treatment each month, Ms. Curusis said.
