One interview question I did not get correct
Hey guys,
I got this question during interview. Actually it was a follow-up question from the previous one.
Anyways, this question is "if you add equity offering to increase funding and shareholders disagree, what would you do?"
I basically said that because their shares will be diluted so I will use the Treasury Stock Method to analyze. But this seems to be some sort of analysis and he seemed unsatisfied.
How would you guys answer this?
Seems you speak broken english, could be more of the problem here..
I don't even know what you just said.
"if you add equity offering to increase funding and shareholders disagree, what would you do?" I'm assuming you mean that you do a secondary offering/IPO and there ends up being low demand and undersubscription?
In this case you would have the bank that you were dealing with buy back whatever Green Shoe shares it sold short in the initial offering (if there was a green shoe) and maybe even buy back additional shares. This would help stabilize the market. Or by "if shareholders disagree" you mean that when you're doing the roadshow, shareholders don't like it, so then you would simply just not do the offering.
To first two posts-I typed that in a hurry this morning so I did not quite check the wording. Rest assured I speak fluent English. The wording should be:"if the company needs funding, would equity be a good way? If you choose to fund through equity offerings, how would you go with this way? And if the shareholders are worried about the dilution of shares, would you still proceed?"
@ltsting26 Appreciate your response. But that question was based on corporate funding instead of secondary market. Sorry that I was not being clear.
