Item classification
Any company registering securities under the Securities Act when another form (e.g., S-3, F-1) is not available.
Filed well ahead of pricing; amendments track the SEC comment cycle until effectiveness.
Market dynamics
Item 101 business description, Item 104 risk factors, MD&A, capitalization tables, and detailed use-of-proceeds plans.
IPO watchers subscribe to S-1 alerts to benchmark comps, diligence KPIs, and prep marketing materials.
Key resources
Expect multiple amendments (S-1/A) as underwriters respond to staff comments, update financials, and finalize offering terms.
Companies submit an initial confidential draft (DRS) before publicly filing an S-1. Amendments follow throughout the SEC comment cycle until pricing.
FAQs
Can companies keep S-1 filings confidential?
Emerging growth companies may submit drafts confidentially, but the public S-1 must post at least 15 days before the roadshow.
What’s the difference between S-1 and S-3?
S-1 is the long-form registration for issuers without seasoned issuer status. S-3 is short-form and available only to companies meeting float and reporting history thresholds.
How old can S-1 financials be at pricing?
Financials generally go stale after 134/135 days for large accelerated or accelerated filers; others follow the 134/135-day convention as well.
When must a confidential S-1 become public?
At least 15 days before the roadshow (or 21 days before effectiveness if no roadshow) the draft must be filed publicly.
