1,705,825 shares

Explanation:

The computation of the number of shares issued through this IPO is shown below:

= (Total amount received + legal and other administrative costs) ÷ (Offer price - underwriter's spread)

= ($51,600,000 + $1,110,000) ÷ ($34 - $3.10)

= (52,710,000) ÷ ($30.9)

= 1,705,825 shares

Simply we take the total amount by considering the legal and other administrative costs and divide it by the offer price minus underwriter's spread so that the accurate amount can come.
