hello everyone hi welcome to the Channel of WallStreetmojo watch
[14]
the video till the end and also if you are new to this channel then you can
[18]
subscribe us by clicking the bell ican today we have a topic with us is the
[22]
greenshoe option this option has been adopted by the investment banks during
[30]
the course of what we call as you know when they are underwriting
[35]
IPOs or or any of the company's details so they take into account underwriting
[42]
into consideration now what exactly underwriting is all about is we are
[47]
going to understand here see when when a company goes for an IPO remember one
[53]
thing when a company goes for an IPO day they give the responsibility to
[58]
subscribe the shares to the investment bankers that you know you have to make
[63]
sure that this is the security gets subscribed now if things go here in the
[69]
opposite direction then you will need to buy out that is if the investors don't
[74]
subscribe and you will have to buy so this sum details year let's read that the
[79]
12 year old company pushed its expected price interval from 1921
[82]
21 to 23 according to new SEC filings so the company still
[86]
intends to sell up to 11.5 million shares in its debut in a figure
[91]
that is inclusive of 1.5 million share greenshoe option that is made available
[96]
to its underwriters no issues let's begin with first what is the green shoe option
[108]
see the greenshoe option is a clause what is it a clause that is used during
[114]
the IPO wherein the underwriters they get to buy an additional 15% how
[123]
much 15% of the company's shares at the offering price right okay second
[133]
how does this greenshoe option work
[140]
well the green show option is coined after the dome the green shoe
[145]
manufacturing that was first to incorporate green shoe clause in its
[151]
underwriting agreement see this is how greenshoe option works and I'll show you
[154]
a step by step process the first is that when a company you know wants to raise
[160]
capital for its future development plan one of the ways it can raise money
[165]
through an IPO second now during an IPO company declares an issue price for its
[171]
security and announces a particular quantity of the stock it will use let's
[176]
see 1 million securities at file each okay 1 million security at 5
[187]
each knowing he is a blue chip companies or a company with a very good background
[191]
in statistics it it may also happen that the demand for such security goes
[196]
uncontrollably up and you to which the prices will rise okay third secondly
[202]
know that the demand goes up actual subscriptions are very more than then
[208]
the expected let's say 5,00,000 versus 1,00,000 expected so in this case the number
[217]
of these shares are located to each subscriber comes down proportionately to
[220]
two numbers should versus then expected got it okay fourth now there is a gap
[233]
created between the required price and the actual price which is due to the
[238]
unexpected nature of demand okay for the security so in order to control this
[247]
demand supply gap companies come up with the what we call as greenshoe option
[255]
right they come up with the Greenshaw option fifth you know in this type of
[259]
option the company at the time of the its proposal for for the IPO declares
[264]
the strategy critical ends its strategy to exercise the green show option no
[269]
hence it approaches a what we call as merchant banker in the market who will
[275]
act as a stabilizing agent now at the time of the issue of this occurred to
[283]
this stabilizing agent they borrow certain shares from the promoters to
[290]
company and in order to allow them to additional subscribers in the market in
[294]
the way that when the trading starts the price of the security is not
[298]
dramatically raised due to the demand in the supply but that was a 6. I'll
[304]
go with the 7 so the money raised from the additional offering in the market
[307]
are not deposited in any party's account the money is devoted to deposit it in
[313]
the escrow created by the
[318]
no one's the trading starts in the market destabilizing agent can what we
[323]
call as withdraw money that is deposited in the escrow account
[329]
as for the requirement and he purchases backs exist shares from the shareholders
[333]
and repaid to the promoters of the company finally the entire process of
[338]
lending shares by promoters and repay of the same after the particular time
[344]
period by stabilizing agent is called the stabilizing mechanism perfect so
[353]
this is all the whole process works now let me take you to the next part that is
[358]
what are the features of the greenshoe option see the entire option the entire
[364]
stabilizing mechanism needs to be completed within how manage it is it has
[368]
to be completed in 30 days or let me start with the first one it is to be
[374]
completed in the 30 days time span from the date of the listing of the company
[378]
within which he needs to borrow and return the required quantity of the
[381]
shares before the present so if he is unable to complete the process within
[385]
the timeline and is able to return only the power of the total shares of the
[390]
promoter during the time fishing company will allow the remaining shares of the
[393]
to the promoters second the promoters can lend up to maximum of 15% of the
[402]
total issue to the stabilizing agent so for example if the total issue is
[405]
supposed to be 1 million shares then the promoter can lend stabilizing agent only
[411]
up to maximum to 1,50,000 shares for a lot men to access
[415]
subscribers now the first exercise of the option was made in closely in 1980
[421]
by a firm that named as green shoe manufacturing so note that it is not
[426]
known as the stride right corporations and you know the option is also known as
[431]
the over allotment option so that's it is forth the greenshoe option is a way
[440]
to stabilize the price the price stabilization is regulated and permitted
[444]
by the SEC that C Securities Exchange Commission so the carbon emissions
[448]
to exercise the greenshoe option in the future it needs to clearly mention the
[453]
intricate details in the red herring prospectus and it shall publish during
[459]
the issue of these securities now the stabilizing agents need to
[465]
execute separate agreements with the company and with the promoters with
[469]
mention all details and about the prize and the quantities and the shares to be
[475]
listed also mentioned in the deadlines of the stabilizing agent now I'll talk
[481]
about significance of the exercising the green show option see the green show
[486]
option helps for price stabilization of the company market and the economy as a
[491]
whole it also controls a shooting up you know of the principle of the prices the
[499]
company shares due to uncontrollable demand and tries to align the demand and
[502]
supply equation now the arrangement is beneficial to underwrite you know to the
[510]
underwriters who sometimes the act is a stabilizing agents for the company so in
[513]
a way that borrow the shares from the promoters at a particular price and sell
[518]
them at a higher price to investors once the price goes up so then when the
[522]
prices tend to go up down the purchase shares from the market and return them
[527]
to the promoters this is how they earn profit so this mechanism of beneficial
[534]
investor you know as well it works in the way to stabilize the price and thus
[540]
making it cleaner and transfer them to investors and helps them to make deep
[543]
better analysis so the green show option is beneficial for the markets because
[548]
they intend to correct the you know prices due to the increase in the
[555]
demand and is an incorrect measure for share price so hence the company tries
[561]
to direct the investors rightly by analyzing the other things rather than
[567]
just only demand for the correct share price
[571]
so let me get to the conclusion to this see the greenshoe option is based on the
[576]
companies of farsighted vision which foresees the increased demand for the
[581]
stock or in the market and it also refers to the popularity within the
[584]
general public and the investors faith in them to perform the future and it
[589]
give them it gives them a very good returns so this type of greenshoe option
[594]
is beneficial okay and to the company the right is the markets and investors
[600]
and economy as a whole so it is the duty of the investor to read the offered
[605]
document before any kind of the investment door for the optimal returns
[610]
so that's it for this particular topic so that's it for this particular topic
