Include specific companys name in resume?

Is is considered wrong to include the specific company when listing the deals you have been involved with?

For example

$100MM IPO for Google

$100MM IPO for Tech Company

Which one would be correct?

Thanks.

I always list the actual company name for the closed deals. You can use project names for deals that are pending. If you don't have many closed deals, you can list "busted" deals (codenamed) as well. I've seen this on lots of resumes from banking analysts.
