  • Upsizing and Downsizing Your IPO
    Upsizing and Downsizing Your IPO Posted by Charles M. Nathan, Latham & Watkins LLP, on Thursday July 29, 2010 Editor’s Note: Charles Nathan is Of Counsel at Latham & Watkins LLP and is co-chair of the firm’s Corporate Governance Task Force. This post is based on a Latham & Watkins Client Alert by Brian G. Cartwright, Alexander F. Cohen, Kirk A. Davenport and Joel H. Trotter. The reds have been printed; the deal is on the road; and the champagne is on ice. Now, all that is left is for the IPO investors to step up and buy the stock. It’s a tempting moment to relax — but an experienced deal lawyer knows better. This is the time to start preparing for the possibility that the deal will be wildly oversubscribed or will struggle mightily. In either case, the question that will shortly come your way is ―How much can the deal be upsized or downsized at pricing?‖ To answer that seemingly simple question, you will need to break it into three component parts: Was your registration statement accurate and complete as of the time it became effective? Have you provided investors with all the information they need to make an informed investment decision prior to confirming orders? Do you owe the SEC any additional filing fees? Getting to the bottom of these points is a surprisingly complex undertaking. The rules in this area are technical and not always intuitive, and you may be asked to make some difficult judgment calls under significant time pressure. The purpose of this Client Alert is to provide you with the tools you need to react quickly and wisely to questions about pricing outside the range when the moment of truth arrives.
