Management, employees, and early-stage investors may own company stock potentially be worth thousands or millions of dollars and have no liquidity because the stock isn’t currently trading, prolonging their ability to cash out a portion of their holdings. Sometimes the need for cash requires them to sell some of their position at a discount before the company can go public.
Pre-IPO shares are shares of a private company before it goes public, while publicly traded shares are those of a company that has already undergone an initial public offering and is traded on a public stock exchange, making them accessible to the general public. Investing in a private company pre-IPO provides the potential opportunity to acquire shares at a lower valuation compared to the initial public listing price.
Pre-IPO investing is a good opportunity to invest in quality companies before they go public. There is risk involved, but their is the potential for higher than average returns. Overall, pre-IPOs offer a strong investment opportunity for accredited investors.
