Brightcove stock surges in first day of trading

By AP  | February 17, 2012

CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts (AP) — Brightcove Inc.'s shares are surging in their first day of trading on the Nasdaq exchange on Friday.

The company, which provides cloud-based computing services, raised $55 million in an initial public offering. It priced 5 million shares at $11 each, within its expected range of $10 to $12 for each share.
