General Advantages Access to USA capital markets and cheaper debt. More favourable valuations by uplifting to Wall Street comparable valuation multiples. More favourable restricted and escrow trading terms. Greater certainty of success (on time and on budget). Access to additional capital to fund future business growth and/or acquisitions. Allows company to obtain liquidity for its shareholders. Advantages of APO vs. IPO Significantly more cost effective than an IPO. Initial investment can be staged to allow minimal cash investment upfront. The financial risk of failure is significantly contained. Advantages vs. Private Equity/Venture Capital No exposure to a domineering shareholder. Allows a company to focus on realising long-term growth and value, rather than achieving short term goals of investors.
12
We have formulated a 4 stage approach to the APO, which is designed to minimise the financial risk, as follows: Stage 1: Preparation of IM, Selection of USA Investment Bank (1 Month) Stage 2: Preparation for APO (1 Month) Stage 3: APO Implementation (2 Months) Stage 4: Public Secondary Offering ( 2 Months) Total 6 Months
13
The core objective of Stage 1 is to work with you, our client on the Information Memorandum to realise the best value proposition for the company. This is a critical task in selecting the US Investment Bank/ Underwriter & securing investment commitments that are necessary to the success of the APO and the subsequent public secondary offering.
14
Collection of data and preparation of an Information Memorandum Test and provide feedback on the reasonableness of financial forecasts. Due diligence which is performed by MSC on behalf of US Investment Bank. Review the corporate structure and identify reorganisation requirements necessary to achieve tax relief. Perform balance sheet analysis to identify any surplus assets to remove from the structure prior to the merger. Engage a US Investment Bank for the secondary public offering. Prepare for an initial road show to investors. Obtain an initial indication of potential financing. Format company disclosures in the information memorandum in readiness for future USA securities market compliance.
15
Stage 2 of the APO is undertaken when we have an indication from the US capital market that there are sufficient bridge funding, debt and equity commitments to justify a secondary public offering of the company. Its core objective is to place the company in a position of readiness for a reverse merger and subsequent secondary public offering.
16
Preparation for the APO ◦ Restructure of Australian Holdings if necessary. ◦ Arrange for the preparation of 2 years of historical financial information in accordance with USA GAAP. ◦ Appoint an external auditor and arrange for the audit of 2 years of historical financial information in accordance with USA GAAP. ◦ Negotiate all external contractual arrangements. ◦ Coordinate legal and accounting due diligence. ◦ Identify USA public company “PUBCO” and perform due diligence. ◦ Facilitate engagement of legal counsel and auditors for the USA public company. ◦ Assistance with the preparation of a road show presentation to institutional & retail investors. ◦ Assistance with obtaining investment commitment from US underwriter. ◦ Prepare for implementation of corporate reorganisation in readiness for Stage 3.
