TIPS FOR SUCCESS

In this edition of our newsletter, we’re excited to share another valuable tip for companies considering a Regulation A+ offering - here is a high level general overview of the most important things to consider:

Understanding Regulation A

  • Tier 1: Allows raising up to $20 million in a 12-month period. It involves state securities review (blue sky laws) but has fewer ongoing reporting requirements.
  • Tier 2: Allows raising up to $75 million in a 12-month period. It preempts individual state securities laws but requires more robust disclosure and ongoing reporting.

Pre-Offering Preparation

  • Audit Your Financial Statements: Ensure your financial statements are audited if you're going for Tier 2. This builds investor confidence and is a regulatory requirement.
  • Craft a Strong Offering Circular: Your offering circular should be clear, comprehensive, and compelling. It should cover your business plan, financials, management team, and risks.
  • Legal and Compliance Readiness: Engage experienced legal counsel familiar with securities laws and the Regulation A process to avoid compliance pitfalls.

Marketing and Investor Relations

  • Test the Waters: Use the "test the waters" provision to gauge investor interest before formally launching your offering. This can help tailor your approach based on feedback.
  • Leverage Online Platforms: Use online platforms to reach a wider audience. These platforms can offer a streamlined process for attracting investors.
  • Professional Presentation: Present your business professionally with high-quality marketing materials, a user-friendly website, and an engaging investor pitch.

Managing the Offering

  • Set Realistic Valuations: Ensure your company's valuation is realistic and justifiable to attract and retain investors.
  • Transparent Communication: Maintain open and transparent communication with potential and current investors. Regular updates on progress can build trust and credibility.

Post-Offering Considerations

  • Prepare for Ongoing Reporting: Be ready for the ongoing reporting requirements, especially if opting for Tier 2. This includes semi-annual reports, annual reports, and current event reports.
  • Build a Solid Investor Relations Strategy: Post-offering, having a robust investor relations strategy can help manage expectations and foster long-term relationships with your investors.

Utilizing Professional Services

  • Engage Experienced Professionals: Work with experienced underwriters, brokers, and advisors who specialize in Regulation A offerings to maximize your chances of success.

By considering these tips and tricks, companies can navigate the Regulation A offering process more effectively, potentially leading to a successful capital raise and growth opportunities.

Private Equity: A 2024 Pulse Check

As we embark on a new fiscal year, now is an opportune time to provide a market update and forecast the trends likely to shape the private equity (PE) sector in the year ahead.

Sustained Resilience Amidst Economic Uncertainty

Despite economic headwinds, private equity has demonstrated remarkable resilience. According to McKinsey & Company, global PE assets under management (AUM) reached a record $6.3 trillion in 2023, a 7% increase from the previous year. This growth was reinforced by robust fundraising activities and a strong demand for alternative investments amid volatile public markets.

REG A+ FAQs

Which shareholders get liquid first in a Reg A+ offering?

There is no special sequence, no preference. The company itself, and any selling shareholders in an offering are made liquid on a pro-rated basis throughout the offering. So, for example, if an offering is ended at 92% of the maximum goal, then all the selling shareholders in the offering will have sold 92% of the shares that they intended to sell in that offering.

Can I Raise Capital for a Private Equity Fund using Reg A+?

No. A PE Fund or Private Equity Fund is not allowed to raise capital using Regulation A+ because non-accredited investors are eligible to invest in Regulation A+ offerings. Private funds can only take investments from investors that are accredited, and for certain private funds investors must clear additional thresholds naming them Qualified Investors. Therefore, the majority of PE Funds raise capital through Regulation D or Regulation S offerings.
