Pre-IPO Businesses

Pre-IPO Businesses

Pre-IPO companies choose ASK LAW FIRM because of our extensive experience during the entire life cycle of a company-from inception to exit-and our deep knowledge of the impact to all stakeholders, including founders, executives, and early employees.

Building a solid IPO strategy in advance of a public offering is critical and requires addressing relevant, financial reporting, equity, international, as well as credits and incentives issues. Navigating these issues has grown more complex due to comprehensive changes enacted in recent years and pending legislation on the horizon.

Our experienced professionals proactively work hand-in-hand with founders and company finance executives to develop, implement, and document positions that will directly benefit stakeholders. We provide the technical competence of a global firm with the responsiveness of a boutique firm, all with superior focus and creativity.

ASK LAW FIRM professionals provide multidisciplinary solutions to pre-IPO businesses including:

• Structuring and risk mitigation techniques that can protect and enhance your exit value
• State and local compliance related to mergers, acquisitions, transactions, and restructuring
• Sell-side due diligence, analysis, and planning
• Accounting for tangible, intangible, and financial assets for companies undergoing acquisitions, mergers, or divestitures
• Ongoing, estate, and financial planning for founders and executives
• Temporary staffing for immediate bill payment, payroll, general ledger, and financial reporting, in addition to assisting with cash management functions, budgeting, forecasting, and support in preparation for external audit
