The ideal IPO candidate tends to exhibit some or all of the following characteristics: • A clearly defined strategy. • A track record of sound financial performance and a solid balance sheet. • Market leading positions, favorable industry trends and growth prospects. • A large potential customer base and products or services that are attractive and accepted by the market.

  • Stock Exchange Listing Agreements As a Vehicle for Corporate Governance
    1981] STOCK EXCHANGE LISTING AGREEMENTS AS A VEHICLE FOR CORPORATE GOVERNANCE INTRODUCTION After nearly two hundred years of operation, stock exchanges remain largely unexplored as vehicles for regulating the internal affairs of corporations whose stocks they list for trading. Such regulation would seek to establish uniform, easily comprehensible standards of corporate conduct and to communicate them to every investor. The standards would be implemented by requiring that corporations conform to them as a prerequisite to having their securities traded on an exchange. As a result, investors could more accurately assess the value of corporate equity securities than they can today, and would be less likely to base an investment decision on a misunderstanding of their potential rights as shareholders.1 In evaluating the price of an equity security today, investors face fifty state corporation laws and as many state judicial systems, which together determine the bundle of rights the investor pur- chases. This problem stems from the principle that state law defines the rights and obligations a corporation owes to its share- holders.2 Investors who have neither the expertise to school them- selves in the nuances of state corporation law nor the resources to hire an attorney for that purpose 3 may choose "safer" invest- ments,4 or equally risky but more understandable investments,5 or I Stock exchanges currently regulate some aspects of internal corporate affairs, see, e.g., note 40 infra, but this Comment advocates greater supervisory powers. Furthermore, because of the relative obscurity of listing agreement provisions, investors do not generally appreciate the specifies of current exchange regulations.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Why Are the First Day Returns of China’s IPOs So High? Abstract We investigate the causes of the high first day returns of Chinese firms making an initial public offering (IPO) of A-shares from 1991 to 2003 on Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges. Our results show an average underpricing of 175.21 percent. We argue that the IPO underpricing is an interaction of ex-market underpricing and on-market overpricing. The high first day returns of China’s IPOs are most likely generated from on-market overpricing. Government intervention, market speculation, special ownership structure, strategy of proceeds maximization and risk concerns are the main drivers of the high first day returns. However, the high first day returns have decreased significantly in ecentr years. We explained this change by testing the risk composition hypothesis, the realignment of incentives hypothesis and the changing issuer objective hypothesis, which shows that the reduction in risk, senior managerial shares and seasoned offerings mitigate the first day returns.

  • Shares, Dividends, and Stock Splits
    Shares, Dividends, and Stock Splits Authorized Shares – The total number of shares that a corporation can legally sell. Issued Shares – Shares that a corporation sold at any time in the past, even if some of were later reacquired. Treasury Shares – Shares that a corporation previously sold, later reacquired, and still holds. Outstanding Shares – Shares currently owned by investors. These are the only shares that pay dividends and give holders the right to vote for the board of directors. Example: The charter of November, Inc. authorizes the issuance of 125,000 shares of common stock. In total, the company has sold 48,000 shares over the years, but 10,000 were later bought back and are still held by the corporation. How many shares does the corporation have outstanding? 38,000 outstanding shares. This amount is calculated by subtracting the 10,000 shares of treasury stock from the 48,000 issued shares. Example: The charter of October, Inc. authorizes the issuance of 200,000 shares of common stock. In total, the company has sold 90,000 shares over the years, but 9,000 were later bought back and are still held by the corporation. How many shares does the corporation have outstanding? 81,000 outstanding shares. This amount is calculated by subtracting the 9,000 shares of treasury stock from the 90,000 issued shares.

In Pursuit of Good & Gold: Data Observations of Employee Ownership & Impact Investment Christopher Geczy, Jessica S. Jeffers, David K. Musto & Anne M. Tucker* ABSTRACT A startup’s path to self-sustaining profitability is risky and hard, and most do not make it. Venture capital (VC) investors try to improve these odds with contractual terms that focus and sharpen employees’ incentives to pursue gold. If the employees and investors expect the startup to balance the goal of profitability with another goal—the goal of good—the risks are likely to both grow and multiply.

  • The Promise and Peril of Real Options
    1 The Promise and Peril of Real Options Aswath Damodaran Stern School of Business 44 West Fourth Street New York, NY 10012 [email protected] 2 Abstract In recent years, practitioners and academics have made the argument that traditional discounted cash flow models do a poor job of capturing the value of the options embedded in many corporate actions. They have noted that these options need to be not only considered explicitly and valued, but also that the value of these options can be substantial. In fact, many investments and acquisitions that would not be justifiable otherwise will be value enhancing, if the options embedded in them are considered. In this paper, we examine the merits of this argument. While it is certainly true that there are options embedded in many actions, we consider the conditions that have to be met for these options to have value. We also develop a series of applied examples, where we attempt to value these options and consider the effect on investment, financing and valuation decisions. 3 In finance, the discounted cash flow model operates as the basic framework for most analysis. In investment analysis, for instance, the conventional view is that the net present value of a project is the measure of the value that it will add to the firm taking it. Thus, investing in a positive (negative) net present value project will increase (decrease) value. In capital structure decisions, a financing mix that minimizes the cost of capital, without impairing operating cash flows, increases firm value and is therefore viewed as the optimal mix.
