JAL said Thursday that the shares will be priced between 3,500 yen and 3,790 yen ($44.51 and $48.20) each. That would put the value of the share listing at up to (663 billion yen) $8.44 billion.
The airline, which is scheduled to relist its shares on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on September 19, said the price would be set between 3,500 yen and 3,790 yen after sounding out investors during a one-week book-building process that starts on Friday.
JAL, which competes against All Nippon Airways in Japan, filed for one of the country's biggest-ever bankruptcies in January 2010, saddled with debt, unprofitable routes and a bloated workforce. It received a 350 billion yen government-orchestrated bailout.
The carrier has been trimming routes, slashing jobs and entering the low-cost carrier business and recently returned to profitability.
