The Cost-Benefit of IPO and then staying Listed12

The realities of contemplating listing or remaining listed on the an Exchange

What does all this really mean?

➢ Illiquidity for shareholders, investor short termism, limited broker support and difficulty raising new capital.

➢ Initial and ongoing high costs.

➢ Compliance brings costly infrastructure and increased overheads.

➢ Strategic & operational focus taken away with high-maintenance compliance regime.

➢ Attracts undue attention from shareholder activists, short sellers, ligation-funded class actions and opportunistic takeover offers.

➢ Exchanges enforces controls on companies for diversity, gender targets, social responsibility and “social licence to operate”.
