He didn't. Ovidius likes to pretend he was in the IPO when he actually invested, if he did, after Seymour left the company. When he was in charge it was in the $2 range a year after he left it was down to 50 cents.
We hashed over this 5 years ago and I demonstrated then that Ovi could not have been in SSUR during Seymour's time. Ovi then changed his timing and story. It's a fabrication, much like the lies about the Chief Science Officer Dr. Menon that circulated for a while.
