Brunswick Group is securing PR for Dell's spinoff of SecureWorks, the cloud computing security company.
Dell, which acquired SW in 2011 for $612M, said Dec. 17 the unit filed to go public in an IPO. Number of shares and price are to be determined as the S-1 filing used a $100M placeholder for the offering.
SW helps secure data from cuber attacks. Fiscal 2015 revenues were $190.7M, rising to $245.4M for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. Net loss for 2015 was $38.5M.
Brunswick's San Francisco office is advising SecureWorks through the IPO process. The Wall Street Journal reported SW filed confidentially several months ago, but went public this week as required three weeks before a pitch is made to investors in an IPO roadshow.
