A privately held company has an estimated value of equity equal to $100 million. The founders own 10 million
shares. If they sell 1 million shares with no underwriting costs, how much should the per share offer price be?
($10.00) If instead the underwriting spread is 7%, what should the offer price be? ($9.93)
Estimated value of the firm's equity before the IPO = $100.00 million
Number of shares before the IPO = 10.00 million
Number of new shares sold in the IPO = 1.00 million
Percentage spread = 0%
Offer price = (VPre-IPO)/[(F nNew) + nExisting]
Offer price = $10.00
Percentage spread = 7%
