May 19 (Reuters) – Metals USA Holdings Corp filed with U.S. regulators on Monday to raise up to $200 million in an initial public offering of common stock.

The Houston, Texas-based metal processing company told the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission in a preliminary prospectus that it intends to list its common stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "MUX".

The filing did not reveal how many shares the company planned to sell or their expected price.
