Reg A – Hitting the Market

Perceptions of the success of your

offering and your company will

depend on how your stock trades

Page 3: Regulation A  - Hitting the market

It is important that your

stock trades initially at a premium to the offering price - if it goes down months

later the market will forgive you

Page 4: Regulation A  - Hitting the market

The only way to do

this is to price the deal properly and

create excess demand – sell more stock than you are

offering

Page 5: Regulation A  - Hitting the market

You should study

how your company is

priced compared to already public

similar companies

Page 6: Regulation A  - Hitting the market

We recommend that

you offer the stock at a discount of

about 10% to like companies

Page 7: Regulation A  - Hitting the market

Remember your rate of growth is

most important in pricing your IPO

Page 8: Regulation A  - Hitting the market

You should also create demand for

about 10-20% more stock than you are

selling

Page 9: Regulation A  - Hitting the market

Hopefully some of this

excess demand will go into the market and buy when your stock starts trading

Page 10: Regulation A  - Hitting the market

Remember the Facebook IPO

face plant? They sold stock to fill all the demand and the stock

sank like a stone
