“It is precisely because of the explosive growth of the company’s performance that the actual fund-raising amount of NSM has increased significantly compared with the projects raised and invested in the prospectus. Therefore, we can’t simply equate the over raising with the high price.” In the view of insiders, “high price” and “over raising” are two different discussion areas.
Another investment banker pointed out that the emergence of this over raising of NSM micro is related to the cycle mismatch between the planned and actual raised funds of the raised investment project. According to public materials, in January 2021, the issuer held the board of directors and shareholders’ meeting to review the IPO raised investment plan and determine the amount of capital required for the raised investment project. However, after a lapse of 15 months, the company started issuing and made an inquiry to the market. Benefiting from the policy support of chip localization and the huge Chinese market demand, the company’s revenue and profit increased significantly in 2021. The medium and long-term valuation given by investors based on the company’s good growth expectation did not match the funds required for the design of raised investment projects in early 2021, resulting in great differences between the two.
“When preparing the funds required for raising investment projects, the enterprise will comprehensively consider the current profitability of the enterprise, and plan the proposed investment projects in the short and medium term in combination with future orders and procurement needs. However, if the IPO application cycle of the enterprise is long, there may be cycle mismatch, especially for the high growth science and innovation enterprises, so it is easy to have the phenomenon of ‘over raising’.” The investment bank concluded.
