As The IPO Window Reopens, Will Your Company Be Ready? After reaching a 32-year low in 2022, the IPO market is coming back to life as tech-focused listings like Arm, Instacart and Klaviyo bring new energy into what has become a tougher public-exit landscape. That activity has companies that may have put IPO plans on hold contemplating what pricing could look like in early 2024—or sooner. But whenever you put those plans into action, it’s important to remember that this is still a very different environment than in the heady days of 2021, when frothy valuations, easy money and investor enthusiasm drove a record-setting year for IPOs. https://lnkd.in/eprdtdvp #ipo #srfc #nasdaq #nyse  Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP

Diving into pre-IPO investments? Super exciting but let's break down the risks, 'cause it's not all smooth sailing. 🚀 First up, IPO dates can change. Market shifts can delay or speed things up, so be ready to adapt. Here's a tricky bit: getting info. Pre-IPO companies might not spill all the beans like public ones do, so you're kinda playing detective here. Think long-term. Flipping pre-IPO shares isn't instant. Share dilution? Yep, it happens. Your slice of the company might shrink, but hey, the overall value could still grow. Heads up for the Right of First Refusal. Sometimes, the company gets first dibs on buying shares back. And the big one - bankruptcy. It's rare, but it can happen. That's the risk in the investment world. Lastly, if the company gets bought out, things can get unpredictable. Your returns depend on when you jumped in. So, the deal with pre-IPOs? Balance those risks with the dream of big returns. Always do your research and mix up your investments. Stay sharp, folks!
