Such companies may, however, qualify for listing provided they meet the numerical criteria outlined above, have sufficient financial resources to continue operations over an extended period of time, and are otherwise regarded as suitable for Exchange listing. Initial Public Offerings In certain circumstances, the Amex may approve an issue for listing "subject to official notice of issuance" immediately prior to effectiveness of the company's initial public offering. While the Exchange has not adopted special criteria for IPOs, added emphasis is placed on the company's financial strength and its demonstrated earnings history and/or outlook.
