More on Google’s Possible SEC Filings, IPO
From the article, “Google.com has been coy about going public even as Wall Street’s collective mouth waters, but the Internet giant may soon have to reveal its closely guarded financial performance through another type of public filing, according to securities lawyers tracking the company. If Google has $10 million of total assets and more than 500 stockholders, it will have to file a Form 10 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, under section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934…Such a filing will make public Google’s earnings and revenue information. It would also trigger the need for other public filings such as proxy statements and annual reports…If Google reached the threshold of 500 stockholders by the end of 2003 and if that is the end of its fiscal year, it would have to file a Form 10 by April 30, said Matthew Gilman, a partner at Brown Rudnick Berlack Israels in Boston.”
