The IPO Journey – maximising your potential

An IPO is a once in a lifetime opportunity and being well prepared is critical to

success. The process is incredibly complex and your IPO journey is likely to take many

twists and turns. Anticipation, sound advice and thorough planning will therefore be

necessary to meet your listing objective.

 

Ensuring that the business is being run with a public exit in mind, that the strategy

and execution are clear and that the process is well understood are key considerations.

Areas such as clarity of business strategy, efficient corporate and tax structuring,

corporate governance, external financial reporting and employee incentivisation are all

examples of value drivers which will impact the success of your IPO.

 

Addressing these areas early before the intensity of the IPO process begins will help

to ensure that everything runs smoothly, disruption to the business is minimised and

the focus is on value enhancement rather than fire fighting. Identifying and fixing

problems while there is time will add value, preserve the timetable and avoid a crucial

window of opportunity being missed.
