Preparing for an initial public offering (IPO) is an onerous process and a “health check” of sorts for a company. Multinational companies need to ensure they comply with federal, state, and local tax regulations.
When planning for an IPO, a company is well-advised to enlist the help of experienced IPO advisors, including valuation experts.
Valuations are required at various stages in the IPO process, typically in the pre-filing stage. Managing valuation considerations carefully can minimize the time, effort, and costs of the IPO filing process.
