Numerous additional benefits come with public company status. Among them are:
Once a going public transaction is complete, the company will be able to use its common stock as a form of currency and as collateral for loans.
Going public creates value for an issuer’s securities. Going public also creates liquidity for existing and future investors and provides an exit strategy for shareholders and/or investors.
Additionally, public company stockholders may be able to sell their shares or use them as collateral. Public companies have greater visibility than private companies. It is easier to build recognition of a public company than a private one.
Publicly traded companies are often promoted and gain publicity from their status as public companies. Further, the media has a greater economic incentive to cover matters concerning public companies than private companies because of the number of shareholders and investors seeking information about the company.
Going public may allow a private company to attract more qualified employees and key personnel, such as officers and directors, because it allows the company’s management and employees to share in its growth and success through stock options and other equity-based compensation.
There is a certain amount of prestige associated with a public-company status or service to a public company.
