The drafted prospectus will be filed and presented by Mina Mar Group to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). As we already mentioned prospectus is standard part of an IPO process. It ensures that important information regarding the issuing securities are disclosed to potential investors. Preliminary prospectus ("red herring") is the first offering document which contains most of the relevant details is filed with SEC. The SEC will likely return the prospectus within some weeks with comments, requesting further clarification, disclosure or additional information. After the revision of the prospectus based on previous comments it will be approved by the SEC.Final prospectus also know as offering circular contains finalized information including security's price. It means that offering is effective and it can be printed.

We will continuously work with FINRA  until all answers are provided and acceptance of your company is guaranteed.

Following the preparation of prospectus and filing with SEC we acquire the service of stock distribution firms, investor relation firms and other firms that will put in effort  in marketing and selling parts of the offering to interested parties. Our investor relation firm will arrange several meetings with potential analysts and investors. Road show involves presentation of the company in the formal setting to investors and analysts so they can decide whether to invest or not.

OTC stocks more difficult to trade and deposit

  Mina Mar Group helps micro-cap companies structure their growth. Micro-capitalized companies are those with less than $50,000,000 in equity, sometimes under $1,000,000. Restructuring involves raising money (both debt and stock), and planning how they will eventually harvest that wealth. If you’re a founder or investor, the secret to harvesting your equity is to possess assets with a developed market for their sale; up until recently, that market was the public market. Now, Over-The-Counter Securities (“OTC Securities”) don’t serve that purpose since, unless you’re a tech unicorn doing an IPO, there are essentially no ways to sell the shares you’ve invested in. OTC securities – how they were deposited five years ago. Brokerages all around the country have tightened compliance over the past five years to the point where no one may deposit share certificates into their brokerage accounts, even if they can prove that they paid for them. Consider the following demand from a secondary ...

Going through Acquisition with Mina Mar Group

An acquisition is the purchase of one business or company by another company. It happens when acquiring company buys most or all target company's shares in order to take control and or other assets of the company. They have to buy more than 50% of ownership.

More mergers and acquisitions happens with small to medium size companies. One type of acquisition is reverse merger or reverse takeover enables private company to be publicly listed in a relatively short time frame. Reverse merger occurs when a privately ...

Our perspective on reverse merger

When we are talking about market perspective usually the financial community is mostly focused on private companies that want to go public and are prepared to pay for the privilege of going through an IPO or reverse merger. That is why most financial consultants are looking for the public shell company just to close the deal. Often private companies that use reverse merger to go public are ill-informed on ability to raise funds, unprepared for the intensive effort and extensive costs to create liquidity. This can even lead company to become a shell itself due to lack of action in implementation of needed solutions. This way there is no long term benefit on both sides. Mina Mar Group sees things quite differently. Instead of making quick profit shared between shell owner and us. We deal with private companies that already offer profits  and that truly deserve to be publicly traded and can attract investors at the retail and institutional level and build...
