Is 2016 your year to go public?
Whatever your growth aspirations – whether it’s to grow from local to global, from private to public, from challenger to leader, or from millions to billions – we can help you achieve your goals.
We can help you through your IPO journey. Our 2015 credentials speak for themselves:
- EY served 31% of all global IPOs totalling 59% of global capital raised.
- For financial sponsor (PE/VC) backed IPOs, EY has the #1 audit share.
- Of the Top 10 IPOs, EY serves 70% of the companies.
- Of the Top 20 IPOs, EY serves 65% of the companies.
- In 2015, EY was also auditor to the fourth and the fifth largest IPOs worldwide and served three of the Top 10 IPOs.
- EY is the market leader in serving Unicorns – private companies valued at US$1 billion or more. The next great IPOs?
We advise IPO companies in a variety of other areas vital to their transformation into public entities. These include IPO strategy, governance, risk management, tax structuring and planning, compensation and benefits, internal audit and more.
So what accounts for so many pre-IPO company leaders turning to EY to guide them through this complex transaction? A combination of factors:
- We have developed industry-leading tools and resources that can help a company prepare not only for the IPO transaction but also for the transformation that follows.
- We are the world leader in advising, guiding, and recognizing high growth companies and entrepreneurs. We’ve earned the trust – and the business – of innovative companies and leading brands around the world.
- We are an industry leader in advising VC and PE firms.
We’ve been guiding high-growth companies and business leaders safely through the IPO process and beyond for decades. In fact, 17 years ago, EY took the lead in the IPO market among the Big Four and we’ve sustained our #1 audit share position ever since. The insights we’ve gained supporting the growth journeys of these fast-growing companies means we are uniquely positioned to help you achieve your growth ambitions.
Many of the emerging entrepreneurial companies we have worked with have gone on to become major global organizations.
