 Agora Inc. shares are up 145 Friday to 49.19 on their Wall Street debut, the morning after it priced its initial public offering above the expected range. The video-interaction software company, with headquarters in Shanghai and Santa Clara, Calif., raised 350 million on the sale of 17.5 million American Depositary Receipts at 20 per ADS, compared with expectations that the IPO would price between 16 and 18. Our service is quite relevant in this work-from-home climate, and the feedback to our public debut today is good, Agora Chief Executive Tony Zhao told MarketWatch in a phone interview Friday. But our focus is always focused on building a good company. We cant do anything about things like legislation or other factors that might affect us, he added, acknowledging federal legislation that could impact companies with major operations in China.
