What Is a Reverse Merger?
- Speed to Market – Reverse mergers can often be completed in 3–6 months, compared to 12–24 months for a traditional IPO.
- Lower Upfront Cost – While IPOs can cost millions in underwriting, legal, and marketing fees, reverse mergers typically require significantly less upfront capital, depending on structure and compliance needs.
- Greater Certainty – Reverse mergers reduce market timing risk and eliminate the need for an IPO roadshow, providing a more predictable path to becoming public.
- Strategic Flexibility – Companies can raise capital after the merger through PIPE financing, secondary offerings, or strategic investments once public.
