Effective IPO Preparations: What Companies Must Know and Do to Overcome Stock Plan Challenges

Overview:

Initial Public Offering (IPO) is a beneficial tool for private corporations to expand and raise their capital by offering their shares to public investors in a new stock issuance. To hold an IPO, several requirements from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) must be met and stock option plans must be carefully laid out. These obligations may confront companies planning to go public with a myriad of challenges and compliance issues.

Because the preparations and transition to IPO can be taxing, private corporations and their counsel must be well-versed with the IPO process. They must also thoroughly review their stock plan designs to ensure compliance with the SEC and be able to maximize their IPO.
