Postponed

This is what happens when an IPO fails to attract sufficient buyers. Sometimes the lead manager will lower the price to entice buyers, or state that the deal is attempting to price on a day-to-day basis. If that doesn’t work, the deal is postponed. It usually takes at least six months for an IPO to hit the comeback trail, though many times an IPO will choose to withdraw the IPO entirely.
