Emerging Growth
Capital Markets

Over the course of its investment horizon, an average Emerging Growth company will raise $92.4 million in increments of $16.5 every 19 months, culminating in an exit after 8.8 years at a valuation of $247 million while generating multiple on investment of 2.7x and IRR of 11.6%.

In the process, those Emerging Growth companies will attract a syndicate of 3.7 institutional investors and $42.5 million (46%) of total capitalization from non-VC sources.  Upon a successful exit, 57% of total capitalization will have been sourced from a regional or strategic partner relevant to that Emerging Growth company.

Third500 understands the Emerging Growth economy, together with the unique needs of its investors, Issuers and strategic participants.

IPO Preparedness

The IPO itself is not a destination but the beginning of a journey. Prior to a debut on NASDAQ or NYSE, the growth objectives of Emerging Growth companies are increasingly dependent on financing, strategic and liquidity advantages offered by the public markets.

06

Aftermarket Support

A successful IPO and aftermarket performance requires the participation of global active fund managers who signal “smart money” participation to the Market. Conditions such as quality issuers, attractive share price, substantive research and adequate share blocks are required. Third500 issuers aggregate the venture capital and Pre-IPO investors through a shareholders’ agreement, common executing broker and prospectus disclosure to create these buying conditions.

What is

Emerging Growth?

The Singapore pathway features a series of financing events which are perfectly aligned with mainstream global alternatives (e.g. NASDAQ, M&A). While issuers and investors can stay on the pathway, each stage allows for “Off Ramps” to optimize on financing, liquidity and “Exit” alternatives.
