Goldman Sachs won the biggest share of the $923 million in fees from U.S. initial public offerings in 2009, while Citigroup Inc. fell out of the top five after its revenue plummeted more than 50%.
Goldman Sachs made $191.6 million helping take 16 companies from Hyatt Hotels Corp. to Cobalt International Energy Inc. public in 2009, an increase of more than 60 percent from 2008, preliminary data compiled by Bloomberg show. Citigroup’s share of fees dropped to $68.3 million, making the New York-based lender the only underwriter that participated in at least $1 billion worth of sales to suffer a decline in revenue.
