The Kane Independent IPO Underwriting Process Maximizes Value in traditional IPOs with Wall Street Underwriters
The Kane process empowers shareholders, working with all stakeholders, including private equity investors, to take control of their IPO value positioning to maximize valuation under existing market conditions, defending that value against all due diligence challenges and organizing and controlling the process.
Relying solely on your private equity sponsor "to handle the IPO" because they have on staff a person who was "an analyst/associate/VP at Goldman," is like relying for your IPO yield on former apprentices who brought wood to the oven and pumped the bellows where the master blacksmith forged metallurgical masterpieces - qualitatively an inference of equivalence insulting to the master blacksmith (Managing Director) and a material disservice to you.

The Kane Difference: Kane is an "unbundled" provider of corporate finance, M&A, capital markets and underwriting services. We do not have competing sales, trading, research or asset management agendas - which means we ONLY REPRESENT YOU, and NEVER investors in your IPO. In other words, we have no competing business incentive to rush, structure or arrange for the distribution of your securities other than as benefits you. You get the best of everything: the best planning and preparation from us, and the very best lead-managing underwriters the Street has to offer for your particular transaction, because if you are doing a traditional underwriting, we recruit the best for your deal. (If you are going public via SPAC, except on the broadest dimensions of quality, there is less to distinguish among underwriters - but after-market support immediately post-IPO remains VERY relevant, and whether the underwriters have analysts that can competently follow whatever company you merge in - is critical for sustaining value-positioning in the after-market.
