Is
your company ready for a Public Offering?
These
are the steps we take to be able to answer your questions:
- The
Corporate Scan: from a number of focussed discussions
with the entrepreneur we distil information on the position
of the company in the market and on what evolutionary
phase the company finds itself in. Also we evaluate the
financial situation of the company.
- We
research the market position of the company and estimate
the quality of the management and the organisation. On
the basis of this research we will advise regarding a
possible IPO.
- In
case of a positive advise we will determine the necessary
action regarding strategic planning, management and organisation
in order for the company to prepare for an IPO. The further
advisory role of CIC as well as possible hands on assistance
is determined in close cooperation with the company.
- A
shortlist is being made of financial institutions able
to facilitate the IPO.
- The
equity story, the basis for the investor presentation,
is written in close co-operation with the company.
- Selected
financial institutions will be invited to evaluate the
business case we present together with the company.
- In
case of positive response and equal quotations, we will
evaluate the offerings and will advise on the most attractive
quotation. During our evaluation we will pay equal attention
to costs as well as the financial results of the projected
IPO.
- Together
with the selected investment bank we will determine the
planning of the IPO and the next steps to be taken.
CIC
is able to coach and assist the company and the entrepreneur
throughout the whole operation. Usually we will work closely
together with the other advisors of the company, for instance
the accountant, the fiscal advisor and the investment banker.
Our fees will depend on the model most suitable to the company.
In certain cases we are prepared to make our fees dependent
on our success rate.
