Strategic planning is a vital aspect
in completing a successful APO and
reverse merger. Going public is a
significant milestone in the
lifecycle of a company and for its
owners and shareholders. The
financial, managerial and
organizational issues that arise are
complex and require a high degree of
expertise. Our professionals are
sensitive to the different
techniques that are most helpful in
achieving successful transactions.
Some of the most important work
involved in a reverse merger
transaction begins long before the
public entity is identified. A
clearly defined strategy identifying
a client's long-term objectives and
how these relate to them being
public is the beginning point to the
reverse merger process. We assess
all aspects of our clients' goals
with a constant focus on how the
company will be received in the
public financial marketplace.
For example, a properly designed
capitalization structure is vital
during the transition of becoming a
public company. As part of the
strategic planning process, we
custom tailor a capitalization
structure to coincide with the
company's objectives and any
anticipated public market
requirements. Overall the main areas
given consideration during this
stage include: future acquisitions,
raising capital, shareholder
liquidity, stock options, employee
stock ownership programs, etc.
