Choosing a venture capital
1. The first step is to obtain approval from the board of directors 2. The second step is to prepare a registration statement and file it with the SEO “Securities and Exchange Commission” The registration statement is required for all public, interstate issues of securities, with two exceptions:a. Loan that mature within nine months.b. Issue the involve less than $5 million.
2- SELLING SECURITIES TO THE PUBLIC
The second exception is known as the small-issues exemption. Under this basic small-issues exemption, issues of less than $5 million are governed by Regulation A.
Regulation A: is an SEO regulation that exempts public issues of less than $5 million from most registration requirement.
3. The SEO examine the registration statement during a waiting period. During this time, the firm may distribute copies of a preliminary prospectus. The prospectus contain much of the information in the registration statement, and it is given to potential investors by the firm. The preliminary prospectus is sometime called a red herring.
4. The company cannot sell these securities during the waiting period.5. On the effective date of the registration statement, a price is determines and a full-fledged selling effort gets under way. A final prospectus must accompany the delivery of securities or confirmation of sale, whichever come first.
When a company decides to issue a new security, it can sell it as public issue or a private issue.
In the case of a public issue, the firm is required to register the issue with the SEC.
For equity sale, there are two kinds of public issue
1. General cash offer.2. Rights offer.
3- ALTARNATIVE ISSUE METHODS
With the cash offer, securities are offered to the general public .
With the rights offer, securities are initially offered only to existing owners.
The first public equity issue that is made by the company is referred to as an initial public offering, IPO, or an unseasoned new issue.
This issue occurs when a company decides to go public.
All initial public offering are cash offers. If the firm’s existing shareholder wanted to
buy the shares, the firm wouldn’t have to sell them publicly in the first place.
A seasoned equity offering (SEO) is new issue a company with securities that have been previously issued.
A seasoned equity offering of common stock can be made by using a cash offer or a rights offer.
Definition: investment firms that act as
intermediaries between a company selling
securities and the investing capital
Services provided by underwriters
Formulate method used to issue securities
Price the securities
Sell the securities
Price stabilization by lead underwriter
4- UNDERWRITERS
Syndicate – group of investment bankers
that market the securities and share the risk
associated with selling the issue
Spread – difference between what the
syndicate pays the company and what the
security sells for initially in the market
Underwriters
The underwriter buys the securities for less than the offering price and accepts the risk of not being able to sell them.
Because underwriting involves risk, underwriters usually combine to from an underwriting group called a syndicate to share the risk and to help sell the issue.
The difference batten the underwriter's buying price and the offering price is called the Gross spread, or underwriting discount.
It is the basic compensation received by the underwriter.
Sometime, on smaller deals, the underwriter will get noncash compensation in the form of warrants and stock in addition to the spread.
1. Firm Commitment Underwriting
Issuer sells entire issue to underwriting syndicate
The syndicate then resells the issue to the public
The underwriter makes money on the spread
between the price paid to the issuer and the price
received from investors when the stock is sold
The syndicate bears the risk of not being able to
sell the entire issue for more than the cost
Types of underwriting
2. Best efforts underwriting
Underwriter must make their “best effort”
to sell the securities at an agreed-upon
offering price
The company bears the risk of the issue not
being sold
Not as common as it used to be
Types of underwriter
3. Dutch auction underwriting:
Underwriter accepts a series of bids that
include number of shares and price per
share

bank
A way that a bank can reward investors for
reveling what they think the stock worth and
the numbers of shares they would like to buy
Why Does Underwriting Exist??
1. Gross spread: The gross spread consists of direct fees paid by the issuer to the underwriting syndicate- the different between the price the issuer receive and the offer price.
2. Other direct expenses: these are direct cost, incurred by the issuer, that are not part of the compensation underwriters. These cost include filing fees, legal fees, and tax … etc.
THE COST OF ISSUING SECURITIES
3. Indirect expenses: these cost are not reported on the prospectus and include the cost of management time spent working on the new issue.
4. Abnormal return: in seasoned issue of stock, the price of the existing stock drop on average by 3% on the announcement of the issue. This drop is called the abnormal return.
THE COST OF ISSUING SECURITIES
5. Under pricing: For initial public offering, losses arise from selling the stock below the true value.
6. Green shoe option: It gives the underwriters the right to buy additional shares at the offer price to cover overallotment.
THE COST OF ISSUING SECURITIES
Definition: an issue of common stock offered to
existing stockholders
“Rights” are given to the shareholders
Specify number of shares that can be purchased
Specify purchase price
Specify time frame
Why do companies offer Rights? (Advantages)
Rights may be traded OTC or on an exchange
Rights
The mechanics of a rights offering
Number of rights needed to purchase a
share
Rights
Example:
National Power current share price is 20$, there is 1,000,000
shares outstanding. Suppose they want to raise 5,000,000$
in new equity using a right offering (1 right for each 1 share)
with a subscription price of 10$. Calculate the following:
1. Number of new shares to be issued
2. Number of rights needed to buy a new share
3. The value of the right
4. Show in calculations the effects of the rights offering on
shareholders
The value of a right
Results
The price specified in a rights offering is
generally less than the current market price
The share price will adjust based on the
number of new shares issued
The value of the right is the difference
between the old share price and the “new”
share price
The value of a right
Suppose a company wants to raise $10 million. The
subscription price is $20 and the current stock
price is $25. The firm currently has 5,000,000
shares outstanding.
How many shares have to be issued?
How many rights will it take to purchase one share?
What is the value of a right?
Rights Offering Example
Dilution is a loss in value for existing shareholders
that occurs through the issuance of additional stocks
Dilution kinds:
1. Percentage ownership – shares sold to the general
public without a rights offering
2. Market value – firm accepts negative NPV projects
3. Book value and EPS – occurs when market-to-book
value is less than one
Dilution
Types of Long-term Debt
1. Public issue of long-term debt are usually in the form of
bonds
2. Private issues
Long-Term loans usually bank loans or could be from private firm
which has a history with the company
Easier to renegotiate than public issues
If bonds were issued to private investors costs would be lower than
public issues
MORE THAN 50% OF ALL DEBT ARE ISSUED PRIVATELY
Interest rates are higher in private issues when compared to public
issues
Issuing Long-term Debt
Big Time, Inc., is proposing a rights offering.
Presently there are 500,000 shares outstanding at
81$ each. There will be 60,000 new shares offered at
70$ each.
A. What is the new market value of the firm
B. How many rights are associated with one of the
new shares?
C. What is the value of a right?
D. Why might a company have a rights offering rather
than a general cash offer?
