Pre-Offering Transaction Structure and Offering Preparation Consulting

The first phase of developing a private placement offering is defining the structure of the offering transaction. Our consulting spans the entire matrix of Regulation D Offering preparation; from setting initial offering data, company valuation, and transaction structure, through guidance regarding promotion of the Offering. We provide customized guidance to the client and client's counsel on such critical topics as:

  • Deciding between an equity offering or debt offering, discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of each and the differences between equity investors and debenture investors;
  • Developing concise, attractive transaction structure; Setting the capitalization structure of the company – specifically how many shares of total authorized share/unit capital is appropriate for the client’s current transaction and any future growth;
  • Development of several possible exit strategies; Analysis of the business with a focus on identifying weak areas and providing recommendations to strengthen those areas pre-offering;
  • Setting a minimum offering amount and minimum investment amount;
  • Development of investor return models and valuation techniques;
  • Determining alternative financing that can be utilized in conjunction with the private capital to produce the most cost effective capitalization plan possible;
  • Guidance regarding possible marketing tactics and resources and the priority in which the client should utilize these tactics and resources;

Structuring your offering properly is a critical aspect of raising capital from investors successfully. Put our extensive knowledge and experience to work for your company and ensure you have concise and compelling structure for your capital raise.

Presentation Grade Private Placement Offering Document Preparation

Regulation D Resources has earned a stellar reputation in the industry for developing high specification Regulation D offering documents that meet the SEC’s strict “Form 1A” specification. Form 1A is the same standard of disclosure as mandated in registered type offerings and provides our clients with offering documents of unparalleled quality.

Developing a PPM to Form 1A requires more effort, but it ensures our clients are providing full disclosure to their investors through a high grade prospectus. Further, the Form 1A standard is the same standard the compliance officers at broker-dealer firms will require to approve a transaction for sale through their firm. Thus, our clients are well prepared for accessing FINRA broker-dealer firms for the potential retailing of their offering to that firm’s investor clients.

Each PPM is also developed to our Presentation Grade™ standard which provides an ultra high specification “Tier 1” level prospectus package with fully customized graphics and content that is specific to the client’s business and industry and far exceeds “text only” PPM documents.

Offering Execution Support — SEC Filings, 506(c) Advertising Compliance

One of the key services we provide clients is offering execution support. This involves the following guidance and support:

Federal Securities Filings

Private placement offerings are subject to filing requirements at the State and Federal level. We provide critical support to our clients to ensure they have accurate securities filings at the Federal level. Our services include:

  • Form ID EDGAR Access Filing Review: EDGAR is the system used by the SEC to transmit and manage your SEC filing. We review your Form ID EDGAR access filing for accuracy ensuring your EDGAR account is properly created with the SEC.
  • Form D Federal Filing: Utilized with the SEC to ensure all sales are in compliance with SEC filing guidelines. We provide review and development services for this filing as part of our services matrix.

We also guide clients through creation of an EDGAR Account which is the delivery method of the filing to the SEC. Our compliance support is provided through full completion and close of the offering to ensure the client is properly supported through the entire offering process.

506(c) Advertising Compliance

With the advent of Regulation D 506(c) and the capability to advertise to accredited investors – our compliance support also extends to providing appropriate SEC mandated legend language for 506(c) solicitations and general advertising. Further, we can also assist the client in understanding the proper deployment of corporate website and other corporate assets for use in promotion of the offering, electronic access to offering documents, and investor relations.

Capital Access Resources: FINRA Broker Dealer Community, exclusive Broker-Dealer Referrals and Partnerships, and Private Equity and Investor Resources

Once the private placement offering is ready for execution, we provide our clients access to our proprietary network of FINRA broker-dealers, Broker-Dealer Referral Relationships, private equity resources, and referrals to 506(c) based investor platforms. These resources and potential distribution channels ensure maximum exposure for the client’s Regulation D 506(c) securities offering and provide significant access to service providers in the capital markets.

Our offering distribution network and investor promotion resources include:

  • Access to our private equity community with over 250 private investment groups and private equity firms
  • Access to RDR’s exclusive broker-dealer partnerships and referrals
  • Access to our FINRA broker dealer community with over 800 Tier 2 and Tier 3 FINRA broker-dealer firms that sell private placement offerings to investors
  • Access to RDR’s partnerships with “Platform” broker-dealers who manage 506(c) platforms for retail clients to view and invest into 506(c) offerings

We also provide our clients expert guidance on tactics that may be employed to source investors for their offering in compliance with applicable regulations.
