signinst,
Thanks.

re:Dempsey: The period is broken into three distinct pieces. The first is the pre-filing period, which is three to six weeks prior to filing with the SEC, to get ready for it. The next period is the waiting period, where the SEC okay's your S1 and you wait until your stock is priced. The last period is call the post-effective period. [Once] you go public, there's a 25-day period in which selling shares still requires the delivery of the prospectus.

What does the last 25 days mean? Does that go away if the prospectus is delivered beforehand?knc

Hey, all you publicity seekers, is this so damned hard to understand?

<< It's best to be conservative during the original IPO, only stating hard news about your company's activities. An effort to get extra ink (e.g., trying to get your CEO featured in a lifestyle magazine) could be construed by the SEC as a ploy to pump your stock...and it could cost your company plenty in the long run. >>
