Calling upon decades of experience, our team helps companies avoid pitfalls and overcome obstacles to help achieve a timely IPO process and smooth transition to a public company.
IPO execution
We provide support before, during, and after an IPO but the critical period for many companies is the 18 months prior to listing and the six months after.

Innovation where and when it counts
Innovation is part of the DNA of any IPO company—it’s what drives a team to excel, and it’s a key competitive edge. This is also the case for the IPO COE, from Disclosure Analytics to Argus to LeaseController, innovation helps us create a complete financial picture that can serve to help performance and contribute to the value of the IPO.
- Disclosure Analytics: Deloitte’s advanced data science platform, Disclosure Analytics, analyzes massive quantities of financial information to enable industry benchmarking, visualizations, and financial statement analytics.
- Argus: Artificial intelligence can make document review more comprehensive. With the “virtual eyes” of Argus, we can quickly identify and extract information across an entire population of documents—not just samples—to identify potential accounting impacts, trends, and anomalies.
- LeaseController: A suite of tools built by Deloitte, LeaseController, facilitates adoption and streamlines the end-to-end lease accounting process—from management judgments and decisions to computations and reporting.
