Regulation A Explained
Elaborating on Regulation A
The purpose of Regulation A, an exemption under the Securities Act of 1933, is to give small and emerging enterprises another option for raising capital and to give investors a chance to get in on the ground floor of promising new businesses. Companies that are not ready for or do not meet the requirements for an initial public offering (IPO) may also fall into this category.
Regulation A’s primary benefit is that it paves the way for capital raising from both “accredited” and “non-accredited” investors. Generally speaking, high-net-worth individuals and institutions who fulfill specified financial standards are considered “accredited investors,” whereas “non-accredited investors” are those whose net worth or income do not.
Companies can save money by using Regulation A rather than holding an IPO, which is another perk. For instance, compared to a traditional IPO, the expenses and time commitment of a Regulation A offering are often cheaper.
Companies can test the waters with potential investors before committing to a full registration under Regulation A. It can help businesses gauge investor interest, improve their business strategy, and get ready for a larger offering down the line.
An offering statement detailing the company’s business, management, and financial condition, as well as the securities being sold, must be filed with the SEC by corporations seeking to use Regulation A to raise capital. A simplified prospectus, meant to be more accessible to investors than the standard prospectus, must also be provided by companies.
While regulation A provides some welcome relief, it does so with its own unique set of compliance requirements and continuing reporting obligations. Businesses considering filing under Regulation A should do their homework on the rules and regulations surrounding this exemption and consult with legal and financial experts.
