4 IPO readiness Self-assessment Do you recognize these challenges in your company? Question Self-assessment Often Sometimes Never Do you understand which capital raising option fits your organization? Do not know what organizational changes are required for IPO journey? Are there any issues that need resolving before the IPO? Do you have a lack of experience on selecting the right team? Are you struggling with the right story? Do you have doubts on the right timing and pricing? Each of the above may indicate that your IPO readiness requires support. Page 4
5 Every entrepreneur aspires to take one s company public. Business owners need advice for assessment for readiness of their organization for an IPO and sources for IPO funding. As you embark on your IPO journey, find out how EY can help guide you through the first steps in the process. In 2015, Asia Pacific was the world s leading region in terms of number of IPOs and capital raised. In addition, despite some economic uncertainty in China, the outlook for 2016 remains positive with investor sentiment strengthened by ongoing reforms on the mainland. To execute an IPO successfully, you must be well-prepared. Successful IPO candidates approach the IPO as a transformational process rather than the end-game or just a financing event. It is essential to begin to act and operate as a public company at least one year in advance of the IPO. Page 5
6 The IPO value journey Overview The IPO should be: Structured A managed transformation of people, processes and culture of an organization A process that starts long before the transaction Market leaders recognize the IPO event as one defining milestone in a complex transformation from a private to a public company. An IPO is a process, not an event. Page 6

13 IPO journey services 7. IPO readiness result 6. IPO journey services 5. Communication with shareholders 1. Assessment workshop 4. GAAP conversion 2. Diagnostics and gap analysis 3. Evaluating listing options After the market correction in the middle of 2015, which saw regulators temporarily shut mainland Chinese exchanges to new listings, the region has rebounded strongly in the fourth quarter. Despite ongoing concerns about global and Chinese economic growth and the possible repercussions of a US interest rate rise, the outlook for 2016 is positive. There is a strong pipeline of IPOready businesses and investor sentiment has been buoyed by reforms to China s IPO system which will see a shift to a market-oriented registration process. We expect a healthy appetite for new listings to persist in the coming year. 1 1 EY Global IPO Trends, 2015 Q4, EY, 2015 Terence Ho EY Greater China Strategic Growth Markets and IPO Leader Page 13
14 IPO journey services Key stages in IPO journey: Assessment workshop: The IPO readiness assessment workshop can include up to eight modules: strategy, structures, taxes, financials, internal systems, functions, leadership and the planned timeline. We work with you to identify and discuss any gaps that need closing on your IPO value journey. We also discuss strategic funding considerations and develop an initial target structure and IPO base case in line with your objectives. Diagnostics and gap analysis: This analysis helps you design the corporate structure depending on funding requirements and to identify any gaps with the current structure. These are analyzed in greater detail in individual follow-up workshops, and we help you clarify the time, content and resources required to close them. These results are then used to develop the plan for the work leading up to the multitrack option and IPO. IPO readiness result report: This report defines the strategy that lays the foundation for further discussions and multitrack readiness checkpoints. We help identify the gaps between your current status and IPO target-ready status, and recommend work streams and a road map along with estimates, timelines and resources required to fill the gaps and achieve IPO readiness.
