Raising capital for small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) in the current global economic climate is challenging. Sophisticated corporate investors in general and established investment institutions in particular, are insisting on hybrid structures (debt/equity) as a way to protect their investment capital, when the funding is private. Exceptions to this dynamic exist when the company being funded receives investor bridge equity with piggy back investor registration rights prior to filing for full listing status.However, to go the route of being a public company can be difficult for SMEs, especially if you take the traditional approach of an IPO (Initial Public Offering).

WHY GO PUBLIC
THE ADVANTAGES
Access to Capital It is easier to raise money as a public company than a private company. Investors are more comfortable because there is sucient informa8on available in public lings, the exit is faster, and the valua8on is likely higher. Liquidity Owners are prior investors have a way to cash out over 8me. Growth through acquisi7ons or strategic partnerships A public company can use its stock as currency for acquisi8ons, preserving needed cash for other uses. Stock Op7ons to incen7vize Through ves8ng of op8ons, a longer-term commitment is encouraged from senior management and others.

WHY GO PUBLIC
DISADVANTAGES OF IPO
IPOs cost are very high; An IPO from start to nish can easily take a year or more; The IPO window is generally considered to be either open or closed, and is generally only available to companies with market value in excess of roughly $300 million; In an IPO, an underwriter can cancel a deal or drama8cally lower an oering price at the last minute because of market condi8ons; An underwriter oMen may suggest or even insist that the company raise more money in the oering than the company reasonably needs, crea8ng greater dilu8on to owners.

THE ACCEPTED ALTERNATIVE TO AN IPO IS GOING PUBLIC VIA A REVERSE TAKEOVER (RTO) ALSO CALLED REVERSE MERGER.
In a merger, reverse or otherwise, two corpora8ons join together. One becomes the surviving corpora8on; the other becomes the non-surviving corpora8on. The surviving corpora8on swallows up the assets and liabili8es of the non- surviving corpora8on and the laOer simply ceases to exist, or may survive as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the new parent company.

Some reverse mergers are structured as an exchange of shares or simple asset acquisitions. The transaction generally ends up as a tax-free reorganization under IRS regulations, and whether the deal is a merger, share exchange, or asset acquisition, the net result tax wise is typically the same. In general, the tax treatment of reverse mergers is very straightforward and in almost all cases, the parties avoid the payment of a tax as a result of the transaction; After the reverse merger closes, the company is now a fully reporting public company with the companys shares traded on the OTC:QB. If the company meets the listing requirements of NASDAQ or another recognized exchange, it can apply to have its share capital traded on that market platform. The company will file quarterly and annual financial reports to keep the public aware of its business activities.

(Private Investment in Public Equity)

This is the private placement of registered or unregistered shares of the companys common stock to investors. These shares are generally placed at a discount to the prevailing bid price of the companys stock; If the placement is of unregistered shares, the company will immediately le a registra8on statement to register the shares so that they are free trading and the investor can liquidate his posi8on.

CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK AND CONVERTIBLE DEBT


(Structured PIPE deals)

Structured PIPE deals represent about 43% of all PIPE deals. Most investors choose to go the route of Conver8ble Preferred or Debt deals for several reasons. Some of the most signicant reasons are as follows: 144 holding period commences when you take ownership of the conver8ble instrument, not when you convert shares into common stock; This is important for transac8ons where no registra8on statement is being led and the investor is just wai8ng for the 6 month holding period to expire;

During this period the investor may be earning interest on his investment; 144 holding period commences when you take ownership of the conver8ble instrument, not when you convert shares into common stock; This is important for transac8ons where no registra8on statement is being led and the investor is just wai8ng for the 6 month holding period to expire; During this period the investor may be earning interest on his investment; In cases where the 144 holding period is coun8ng down, or an eec8ve registra8on statement is outstanding, the investor can Structure his conversion terms;

In most cases the Conver8ble Preferred or Debt instrument will probably have a oa8ng conversion level, subject to not conver8ng to more than 20% of the companys equity in each converted transac8on (FINRA rules require shareholder approval for any one-8me issuance of common stock exceeding 20% In this case, the investment is protected because the investor will only convert when it is in his favor;
Next: Equity Line of Credit is the 3rd Method of Raising Capital

EQUITY LINE OF CREDIT IS THE 3RD METHOD OF RAISING CAPITAL


As far as the Company is concerned, this is the most exible method of raising capital because the company will draw down capital when and if needed from the investor who provides the equity line; There are limita8ons on all equity lines based on the companys stock Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). Generally, a company can pull down 20% of the average weekly dollar trading volume and it is done so at a discount to the prevailing bid price;

In all cases, an Equity line is only drawn upon when a registra8on statement has registered the underlying stock in the equity line (some Hybrids allow for draw downs while the shares are not yet registered).
