Shares of alternative-fuels company Rentech got a lift after the company revealed the terms of its nitrogen fertilizer business IPO. It hopes to raise around $250 million by selling 15 million units at a price ranging from $19 to $21 a stub, and will trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "RNF."
Rentech is focusing on developing cleaner-burning jet fuel made from plant-based biomass, but its gasifier project got cut out of the financing loop by the Energy Department this summer, sending its stock barreling lower.
When it goes public, Rentech will own 60% of Rentech Nitrogen, which had $176 million in sales for the 12 months ended in June, and will see it compete against such established players as CF Industries and Mosaic
