For all of you who are so knowledgable in the aera of a private company becomming a public company, PLEASE READ below. This is the only way a private company can become public, AGAIN THE ONLY WAY. SNV has not done any.NONE of SNV's shares are offered on the market through an IPO nor are they registered with the SEC. THEY ARE HELD PRIVATELY in SNV's STOCK TREASURY. DIG!

While some large and successful companies are still privately-owned, many companies aspire toward becoming a publicly-owned company with the intent to gain another source of raising funds for operations. An initial public offering (IPO) represents a private company's first offering of its equity to public investors. This process is generally considered to be very intensive with many regulatory hurdles to jump over. While the formal process to produce the IPO is well documented and as a result is a fairly well-structured process, the transformational process of which a company changes from a private to a public firm is a much more difficult process.
