The 249-year-old German maker of upmarket sandals set a price of $46 per share for its initial public offering of stock, valuing the company at $8.64 billion.Birkenstock is due to start trading Wednesday on the New York Stock Exchange under the “BIRK” ticker symbol. Birkenstock Holding Ltd. sold about 10.8 million shares in the offering, raising about $495 million. Its shareholders sold an additional 21.5 million shares.The company’s footwear was first cobbled together by Johann Adam Birkenstock in Germany in 1774. The sandals have long been derided as the antithesis of high fashion but have a cult following and this year got a plug in the blockbuster film “Barbie.”“Through the strong reputation and universal appeal of our brand — enabling extensive word-of-mouth exposure and outsized earned media value — we have efficiently built a growing global fanbase of millions of consumers that uniquely transcends geography, gender, age and income,” Birkenstock said in a recent regulatory filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.Birkenstock’s formula for success began with a view that humans are intended to walk barefoot. The company said in its filing that its footbed, which was developed in 1902, “represents the best alternative to walking barefoot, encouraging proper foot health by evenly distributing weight and reducing pressure points and friction.”Birkenstock makes all of its footbeds in Germany and assembles more than 95% of its products there. The remaining products are made elsewhere in the European Union. The company’s revenue has increased from 727.9 million euros ($771.7 million) in fiscal 2020 to 1.24 billion euros ($1.32 billion) in fiscal 2022. Birkenstock’s IPO will be the fourth to launch in the U.S. in the past month, following Arm Holdings, Klaviyo and Instacart. There were just 71 IPOs in the U.S. last year, the lowest number since 2009, according to Renaissance Capital.。微信产品团队表示，最近上线了一个「微信方言活动」小程序，请大家一起用方言说内容，来帮助微信的方言语音识别技术迭代。官方称起因是经常收到一些用户对方言服务缺失的反馈，希望尽快补齐并提升各种方言的服务。这个小程序里的内容，算法基于日常语义和中文文库随机合成。绝大部分长这样：“你中秋节回家不？”“老伴儿，咱下去公园遛弯去”“你知道附近菜市场在哪里吗”“你知道从广埠屯到光谷坐几路公交车不？”获悉，官方称它们以家常对话、问路、买菜、催回家等为主。但是，算法合成有时候很蠢，于是出现了少量不合常理甚至匪夷所思的字句。“因此，我们收到了不少用户的反馈、提醒甚至批评。”非常感谢大家的各种意见，这对我们而言至为珍贵。我们已经对文本库进行了仔细清理，剔除这些不靠谱的内容。同时，也请大家放心，关于“方言数据授权与数据安全问题”，我们严格遵循法律法规规定的“合法、正当、必要”原则，通过专属的授权条款取得用户的“单独同意”，并且仅用于提升方言相关服务的质量，例如方言识别模型优化，绝不会用于与此无关的用途，绝不会提供或披露给任何第三方。
