More questions than answers in Megafon IPO pitch

Caveat emptor. It would be nice to offer investors some views on whether Megafon represents an interesting investment at the expected pricing range of $20 (U.S.) to $25 per share or global depositary receipt. (The former will trade in Moscow, the latter in London.) This is Russia’s second-largest mobile company behind MTS. Its market capitalization could be up to $14-billion.
