Going public through the backdoor

0.01 sec.

The process by which a company comes to have publicly traded shares without an IPO. This could happen through a reverse shell merger, or through acquisition of a public company and offering shares to previous owners. Another way is through a series of private placements, selling shares on an exchange to institutional and other sophisticated investors.
