3DO Co. Postpones Its Planned Offer Of Common Stock

By Jim Carlton - Staff Reporter of The Wall Street Journal

3DO Co. postoned a proposed stock offering amid concern by some
investors over what they perceive as lackluster sales for the
multimedia company.

The Redwood City, Calif., concern said it would shelve until at least
after the first of the year the proposed offering of one million
common shares, citing "unfavorable stock market conditions." Proceeds
were to have helped fund operating expenses and capital spending of
more than $60 million over the next 18 months. 3DO said it has no
immediate need for the extra cash, since it has money on hand.

The move generated renewed anxiety among traders on Wall Street, where
3DO's stock value has fallen by more than 50% in recent weeks. The
stock opened at $18.50 a share when 3DO went public last May and soard
to a high of $48.25 in October as investors bet that 3DO's new
technology for interactive entertainment would prove a rousing market
success.

But the stock fell after reports by such market watchesr as Dan
Dorfman on CNBC that sales of the 3DO Ineractive Multiplayer system
appeared to be running lower than some investors expected. 3DO's stock
closed yesterday at $23.75, up 25 cents in Nasdaq Stock Market
trading.

"What it [postponing the offering] says is very simple: If the stock
had been selling for $40 a share, they would have dones this
offering." said Lee Isgur, an analyst for Volpe Welty & CO.

Officials of 3DO would not divulge sales figures for the player being
marketed by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. under the Panasonic
brand. However some analysts said they believe about 30,000 of the
players have been sold through November since the product's lauch in
October, and that they expected total sales of between 40,000 and
50,000 through Christmas.

Matsushita is a 3DO investor, along with such other major companies as
American Telephone and Telegraph Co. and Time Warner Inc.

Because 3DO had indicated in public filings that it expected less than
100,000 players to be sold during the Christmas season, the activity
would appear to fall in line with what company officials anticipated.
More recently, 3DO indicated that Panasonic had shipped about 50,000
players to retailers.

"We really feel that we are exactly where we had planned to be at this
point." said 3DO spokeswoman Diane Hunt.

But some analyts said 3DO was so heavily "hyped" on Wall Street that
anything below blockbuster sales is a disappointment. "People were
expecting this to move off the shelves like nobody's business," said
Mark Macgillivray of H&M COnsulting in Sunnyvale, Calif.
3DO's biggest handicap is the $699 price of its interactive player,
which is considered far to high for mass sales.
