The IPO Preparation Process – Preparing a Company to Access the Public Markets

A company considering a public offering should thoughtfully evaluate its objectives, consider its alternatives and recognize the up-front and continuing costs of taking this step in its strategic plan.

Once the determination to undertake an IPO has been made, careful preparation will need to go into the launching process. An IPO is a seminal event in the life of a company and should be carefully planned in order to be effectively and successfully executed.

Thoughtful consideration will need to go into the makeup of the execution team, how you’ll address legal, accounting and reporting issues and address various regulatory bodies.

This IPO training course addresses these topics from the standpoint of a CFO who has led four public offerings and provides detailed information regarding the accounting and reporting issues to be expected and also an overview of legal topics to be considered.
