A company can effect registration, sales and distribution on VistaWEB.
Considerable care, however, must be taken such that a company's officers and directors who attempt to sell securities are not deemed to be brokers under Sec. 3(a)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as well as state securities laws.

With certain exceptions, the decision to self-underwrite an offering has little impact on the registration process. The registration statement still must be filed, inclusive of the facing sheet, Part 1 - Information Required in Prospectus, Part II - Information Not Required in Prospectus, Signature, and Consents.

Comment letters will still be generated from the S.E.C. and amendments filed by a company responsively. The red herring pre-effective prospectus may still be utilized in conjunction with early marketing strategies. Blue Sky considerations are scaled back a bit insofar as Blue Sky comments usually concern underwriting terms.

A hybrid situation may be Syndicated with VistaWEB and Broker-Dealers.
A company can enter into an Equity Capital Funding with VistaWEB and also syndicate with broker-dealers to assist in placing shares.

Self-underwritten Public Offerings permissible under federal and state securities laws. A company need not employ the services of an underwriter to register shares of its capital stock with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or the securities commission of any state or to distribute such shares to the public once registered.

SPAC Capital Formation
A publicly-traded buyout firm raises money, pursues acquisition of existing company.

SPACs raise blind pool money (most of which goes into a trust) from the public for an unspecified merger, sometimes in a targeted industry. Each SPAC is typically sold at $6 per unit for one share of common stock (to be publicly-traded in the future) and two warrants that can purchase additional shares. If an acquisition is not made in two years, the money is returned to the original investors.


IPO Registration to raise an unlimited amount.
Requires two years Certified Financial statements.

Should an issuer elect to raise money (maximum: $5,000,000) under Regulation A (technically an exemption from federal registration requirements), the rules change a bit.
Regulation A allows for general solicitation, imposes no sophistication or wealth criteria, is open to an unlimited number of investors, and imposes no resale restrictions.

Post-offering, the issuer need not file periodic reports pursuant to Section 13 of the '34 Act (unless required to do so because of the number of shareholders and asset values pursuant to Section 12(g) of the '34 Act).

Unfortunately some states, such as Florida for one example, do not exempt Registration A offerings from state registration requirements, subjecting Registration A issuers to merit review.


The Form U-7 Small Corporate Offering Registration (SCOR) to $1 million, adopted in 1989 by the North American Securities Administrators Association, with its simplified disclosure format, may be used. A limited pre-filing and pre-offering solicitation of interest - "testing the waters" - is allowed. Financial statements need not be audited.
