General Motors is out with its S-1 filing. In short, its IPO filing is now out and official. Terms are not disclosed and the amount listed for filing purposes was $100 million in common stock and $100 million in Series B mandatory convertible junior preferred stock. Keep in mind that those figures are for filing purposes and the dollar amounts are likely to be exponentially higher into the billions of dollars.

The company will trade under the stock ticker “GM” again on the NYSE and it will also trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

The syndicate is huge here: Morgan Stanley, J.P. Morgan, BofA Merrill Lynch, Citi, Barclays Capital, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank Securities, Goldman Sachs, RBC Capital Markets, and UBS Investment Bank.
