What is a Reverse listing / Merger?
Reverse listings are a viable way for small private companies to become publicly traded. They are often a feasible means for private companies that wish to go public without having to spend the the kind of monies and time that a traditional Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) would cost or take. In a reverse listing, a public company buys a private company, and in the process of this listing, the private company becomes part of the public company, and thus becomes publicly traded.
