IBI, which I created in 1996, is an independent consulting firm which specializes in the preparation and successful launch of IPO projects, by allowing company managers to control these types of operations.
An IPO mobilizes resources and introduces challenges that justify the involvement of a professional to take this essential step, on the first day of trading and then over the long-term.
IBI, Consultants in IPO and Listing Sponsor, has led its clients from all business sectors into the stock markets that are open to Medium Cap shares such as the Euronext (formerly the First, Second and New Markets), Alternext and the OTC Market.
As of end of June, 2011, the Stock Market value of our customers represented a total of 3.7 billion Euros, compared to 1 billion Euros on the first trading day, and reaching more than 5.7 billion Euros at its highest point.
We have notably led investors to discover many companies that specialize in residential services: individual classes, property investment consulting, hairstyling, respiratory assistance, hospitalization and at-home care.
A large portion of our clients have been recognized for their progression in terms of sales and market value.
In five years, one of our references has increased its revenue and its stock market value sixfold, reaching € 22 M and € 122 M respectively. In three years, another client has doubled its revenue and more than tripled its stock market value to € 230 million and € 750 million respectively.
Our clients on the OTC Market seek to have their shares traded on the Euronext or Alternext exchanges. More than one in three has already done so with our support, urged on by our shared values: ambition, efficiency, and the long-term.
Since their introduction on the Stock Market and without prejudging the future, as compared to the first day of trading, 80% of our references have doubled their stock price, 50% have quadrupled it, 16% have increased it tenfold, and 8% have multiplied it by more than 40.
To cope with market cycles, we have implemented new IPO and growth financing solutions.
My team remains focused on a professional code of ethics based on independence when considering the imposed solutions.
This independence makes IBI unique in its profession when assisting the Entrepreneur.
I am willing to meet personally to answer any question that you may have.
