General Advantages Access to USA capital markets and cheaper debt. More favourable valuations by uplifting to Wall Street
comparable valuation multiples. More favourable restricted and escrow trading terms. Greater certainty of success (on time and on budget). Access to additional capital to fund future business growth
and/or acquisitions. Allows company to obtain liquidity for its shareholders.Advantages of APO vs. IPO Significantly more cost effective than an IPO. Initial investment can be staged to allow minimal cash
investment upfront. The financial risk of failure is significantly contained.Advantages vs. Private Equity/Venture Capital No exposure to a domineering shareholder. Allows a company to focus on realising long-term growth and
value, rather than achieving short term goals of investors.
Advantages of an Alternative Public Offering “APO”

Stage 1: Preparation of IM , Selection of USA Investment Bank (1 Month)
Stage 2: Preparation for APO (1 Month)
Stage 3: APO Implementation (2 Months)
