BLUE BELL, Pa., Sept. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- UniTek Global Services, Inc. (the "Company") announced the launch of its public offering of 6,250,000 shares of its common stock. The underwriters of the offering have a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 937,500 shares of common stock from the Company, on the same terms and conditions, to cover over-allotments, if any. The Company has applied to list its common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol "UNTK."

Jefferies & Company, Inc. and Roth Capital Partners, LLC will act as book-running managers of the offering.
