FAQ

How do I know if my financials are ready for a US listing?
Check if you have at least 2–3 years (example) of audited financial statements under a recognized standard, clear revenue and expense breakdowns, and clean records for major contracts, debt, and related-party deals.
Which accounting standards do I need for Nasdaq or NYSE?
Typically you need IFRS or US GAAP. If you use another standard, you may need a conversion. An experienced auditor can map your current reports to the required standard.
Do I need audited financial statements before starting IPO work?
You should at least have recent audited annuals and reviewed interim numbers. Without them, valuation, prospectus drafting, and investor talks are hard or delayed.
What are the most common gaps in IPO financial readiness?
Missing audits, weak revenue recognition policies, poor segment reporting, lack of cash flow detail, and incomplete notes on debt, equity, and related parties are common issues.
How far back do my audited financials need to go?
Exchanges and regulators often expect 2–3 years (example) of audited statements, plus the latest interim period. Exact periods depend on jurisdiction and listing route.
What internal controls do investors expect to see?
Clear approval rules for spending, segregation of duties, documented accounting policies, regular reconciliations, and basic fraud and error checks are usually expected.
Can I proceed if my books are in local GAAP only?
Yes, but you will likely need a conversion to IFRS or US GAAP. This takes time and may reveal adjustments, so it is better to start that work early.
How can a legal partner help assess financial reporting readiness?
They can map listing rules to your current reports, flag missing disclosures, coordinate with auditors and advisors, and help design a plan to close gaps before filing.
