3 ways you can take a company public

IPO

Reverse Merger

Reverse Merger

  • Create a new public shell (and put your company inside).
  • Hire a team of underwriters, utilizing an investment bank, they provide lawyers, CPAs, public relations experts, and SEC professionals. (3-7% of the IPO's total sales price).
  • Due diligence and regulatory filings.
  • Audited financials.
  • SEC reviews everything your company has done, agreements, executives, anything and everything they can find on your company.
  • File company prospectus.
  • File more forms, answer questions, more forms.
  • Set a date for the offering, define number and price of shares.
  • Get approval and launch.
  • Approximate cost up to 10% of gross proceeds (you raise $100 million, you pay $10 million).
  • Process can take several months to even years.

Reverse Merger

Reverse Merger

Reverse Merger

  • Find a "shell", essentially a company that is no longer actively in operation, but is still in good standing with the SEC.
  • Buy a large percentage of the stock (typically, this will leave you with 80-90% of the issued stock). Most bulletin board companies can be acquired for $200-400k, depending on negotiation and how much work is needed.
  • No need for registration.
  • Now, you have 10-20% of the shareholders who do not know your company.  You have to create liquidity in the market to essentially buy them out over time. (Your company may be worth $20 Million, even 10% may cost you $2 Million in market buying). 
  • Any positive or negative of the previous company is now yours. Lawsuits, disputes, negative press, shareholder sentiment, etc. Time frame can be as little as a few weeks.
  • You may need to "clean up" the shell, this may include reverse-forward splits.

Spin-Off

Reverse Merger

Spin-Off

  • A parent company spins a subsidiary off and distributes shares to current stockholders. A spin-off constitutes a sale by the parent company.
  • Need a legitimate business reason.
  • Reporting to the SEC under the Securities act of 1933.

Our Recommendations

This question is asked all the time. And, of course the answers vary. Typically, we see: 

  • Companies with over $50 million in revenue/assets go the IPO route.
  • Companies with $10-50 million do a reverse merger.
  • Companies with less than $20 million do a spin-off, usually from a BDC.


Remember:

  • Every problem has a solution.
  • There are usually multiple solutions.
  • We know how to take companies public cost effectively.
