Raising capital with Mina Mar Group

When you talk about raising capital usually the first thing that comes to mind is traditional initial public offering (IPO) and even though it is the the good way to rise significant amount of capital. It is especially useful if you want to avoid borrowing money from traditional sources. In the primary offering, when a private company is selling their stock for the first time they get the influx of capital. Most of that capital is used to expand business and improve profitability of the company by investing in research and development of products and services,marketing and advertising, hiring skilled and experienced personnel, buying assets, etc. Being public also opens many financial doors mostly because public companies are under scrutiny and they have to issue quarterly/annual reports and do audits. For example it is easier to borrow additional capital at a favorable rate.

Mina Mar Group can help you go trough every stage of the IPO process, from drafting the prospectus and due diligence trough SEC approval and FINRA filings to doing road shows and investor relations for your company!

Regulation A allows qualifying companies to raise capital from the public without taking extensive cost and legal requirements needed for traditional IPO. Regulation A+ allows companies to raise up to $50 million transparently and directly from the public. Initially SEC didn't allow reporting companies to raise capital trough Regulation A. The Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act (S.2155 was enacted into law and included key legislation expanding Regulation A+ to SEC reporting companies. We at Mina Mar Group are pleased for that exciting development in our ongoing campaign to enhance the capital raising opportunities for small companies.

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.
