The 25 calendar day "quiet period" only applies to those firms that participate in an underwriting. Analysts from firms that did not participate in the IPO are free to initiate coverage whenever they want to. It is fairly unusual to see non participating firms initiate coverage until the lead underwriters have had their say. While the detail in the S-1 is meant to provide everyone with a "level" playing field as it relates to material disclosures, personnel from the lead underwriters will have had access to personnel at all levels of the company and will have a better sense for the "subtleties."
