RSC celebrates

RSC Equipment Rental North Americas second largest rental company celebrated the successful completion of its Initial Public Offering yesterday when Erik Olsson rang the New York Stock Exchanges opening bell.

"This is a proud day for RSC and its more than 5,200 employees," Olsson said. "We've worked very hard to make RSC the great company it is today a company with outstanding employees, superior financial performance, a young, well-maintained reliable fleet, and an unsurpassed emphasis on customer service. RSC is delivering a new model of service in the equipment rental industry."

While the IPO at the end of May was completed successfully, it did not attract the level of enthusiasm that was anticipated.
