Going public through a direct public offering

We specialize in direct public offerings. This method of going public uses the same accounting, legal and regulatory process that larger companies use. However, an investment banking firm is not part of direct public offering transactions. Instead, the process is coordinated by firms like ours or by companies directly.

The direct public offering process takes the same length of time to complete as an initial public offering (six to nine months).

It is substantially less expensive to complete a direct public offering. Typically, $125,000 to $325,000. This is because the investment bankers have their own legal counsel in an initial public offering and guess who gets to pay for those bills? In a direct public offering, there's only one set of legal expenses.

Since there's no investment banking firm involved in a direct public offering, the entire process can be completed without regard or dependence on market conditions. Therefore, the direct public offering process provides for the most predictable outcome with the lowest risk.
