FAQ

We started an IPO process but paused it. Can it be restarted?
Often yes. We review what was done, what changed in your business and in the market, and then decide if restart, redesign or full reset makes more sense.
How do you assess if we should continue IPO or switch to direct listing?
We compare your capital needs, liquidity goals, investor base, and readiness. Then we map pros and cons of IPO vs direct listing vs private capital and show clear trade‑offs.
Our lawyers and bank are already engaged. What can you add?
We do a founder‑side review of structure, story and process. We stress‑test terms, governance, valuation logic and timetable, and help you ask the right questions to your existing advisers.
What if we are no longer a fit for Nasdaq or NYSE?
We check listing rules, your size, float and governance. If fit is weak, we explore alternatives: different US board, another jurisdiction, or staying private longer with a clear roadmap.
Can you help fix a weak equity story already shown to investors?
Yes. We reframe the narrative, clarify the business model, adjust KPIs, and align materials with what US public investors typically expect in your sector and stage.
Our structure is messy after several rounds. Is that a blocker?
Not always. We map cap table, share classes and rights. Then we propose a cleaner structure and voting framework that can work for an exchange and still protect key founders.
How do you work with our existing legal and audit teams?
We do not replace them. We coordinate on listing venue, disclosure, timetable and workstreams, and help keep everyone aligned on what is critical for a micro‑cap transaction.
We are based in MENA. Does that change the process?
It adds jurisdiction and perception questions. We look at holding company location, regulatory links, investor comfort and how to explain your region story to US public market investors.
