Market Update and Alternative Offerings: Where are the Markets and How to Get a Deal Done If the Markets Are Closed

Following the heady years before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, public capital markets remain largely closed. Few regular-way follow-on offerings or 144A deals are getting done, especially for small to mid-cap companies – and the deals which are happening are often quite bespoke.

 

Recent headwinds may be lessening and a possible IPO resurgence is on the horizon – join us to explore the latest thinking on market trends, what deals might be out there, and how to navigate these thorny issues.

 

Topics include:

 

• Market happenings in 2024
• Navigating the "legal issues" with the SEC and the exchanges
• Bespoke private offerings – convertible debt and PIPEs
• Flexible registered offerings – ATMs, RDOs and committed equity facilities
• Current "market" terms for alternative offerings

 

Orrick's Albert Vanderlaan will be joined by Antoinette Behan, Chief Revenue Officer at Edgar Agents, and Chris Weekes, Managing Director of Equity Capital Markets at TD Cowen.
