IPO vs Merger here with ADSV...

Respectfully, I think you are mixing apples with oranges. There is a huge difference between an IPO and a merger (or acquisition). Nobody is claiming that an IPO is going to transpire. I'm actually glad that it's not an IPO.

With the IPO route, it’s really only helping the rich to get richer as people that invests from a lower-class portfolio would not be able and less likely to purchase shares trading at $5, $10, $20, etc. or so. Doing it like this, merging into ADSV, I think would bring good karma to the company for the wealth they would have created for a new family of investors versus doing an IPO to where small investors would be locked into the Laws of Diminishing Returns from a major market standpoint. With the IPO route, the stock would soon become fairly oversaturated to where its growth would almost seem stagnant.

In short for thought, just think about them merging into ADSV and the amount of shares one could buy under .01, .10, .50, or even $1.00+ if things materialize to be positioned for wealth versus the very few amount of shares one would be able to buy with it already opening up as an IPO already trading well into the dollars. It doesn’t matter how Oyo enters the public market, it will eventually trade at the value delivered to the public with its financials. Again, I think they are looking to merge a portion of Oyo into ADSV and not the entire company.

Review the link below and you will see good reasons for why a merger is consider better than taking the IPO route:

** A reverse merger is often the most expedient and cost-efficient way for a private company that holds shares that are not available to the public to begin trading on a public stock exchange.

** In a reverse merger, an active private company takes control and merges with a dormant public company.

** It can take a company from just a few weeks to up to four months to complete a reverse merger. By comparison, the IPO process can take anywhere from six to 12 months.

** A conventional IPO is a more complicated process and tends to be considerably more expensive, as many private companies hire an investment bank to underwrite and market shares of the soon-to-be public company.

** Reverse mergers allow owners of private companies to retain greater ownership and control over the new company.

** In most cases, a reverse merger is solely a mechanism to convert a private company into a public entity without the need to appoint an investment bank or to raise capital.

** There may also be an opportunity to take advantage of greater flexibility with alternative financing options when operating as a public company.

** The reverse merger process is also usually less dependent on market conditions.

** If a company has spent months preparing a proposed offering through traditional IPO channels and the market conditions become unfavorable, it can prevent the process from being completed.

** The result is a lot of wasted time and effort. By comparison, a reverse merger minimizes the risk, as the company is not as reliant on raising capital.

** The expediency and lower cost of the reverse merger process can be beneficial to smaller companies in need of quick capital even though I think cash is not an issue here with Oyo.

** Additionally, reverse mergers allow owners of private companies to retain greater ownership and control over the new company, which could be seen as a huge benefit to owners looking to raise capital without diluting their ownership.
