Financing Capital Needs Through PIPE Transactions
Private investments in public equity (PIPEs) represent a way for publicly traded companies to raise capital through the issuance of common stock, preferred stock, convertible debentures or other securities in a negotiated transaction, with retail investors or institutional investors or a combination of both.
Gottbetter & Partners, LLP, advises issuers, selling agents and other parties interested in the structure and terms of PIPE offerings at any stage of a company's development — as the initial equity float together with a reverse merger in an alternative public offering (APO), or as a secondary offering to attract new capital for a seasoned issuer. Contact our securities lawyers in New York to learn more about the ways a PIPE transaction can support your company's capital needs or your objectives as an investor.
