If you're going to talk “IPO” you have to
project a $500 million valuation (i.e., be a
big company). Five hundred million dollars
is the point at which the dividing line is set
between the "holy-grail," (a successful IPO)
and the "orphanage" (public issuers whose
market cap is too small to attract either
analytical coverage or institutional interest
on the buy side). *
*Tips for Attracting Financing,
By Joseph W. Bartlett, Founder VC Experts.com
RingCentral: Common vs. Preferred PPS
FMV:
The price that a property would sell for on the open market. It is
the price that would be agreed on between a willing buyer and a
willing seller, with neither being required to act, and both having
reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts.
Pricing Data:
VCE provides a full breakdown of reorganization events,
complete with filings. VCE also provides analysis of
recapitalization occurrences, disclosure of reverse and forward
