The Long-run Performance of Private Equity-backed IPOs in the US and the UK by Luca Fritz PDF Summary

Book Description: This thesis studies the long-run performance of Private Equity-backed and non Private Equity-backed Initial Public Offerings between the years 2000 and 2012 in the United States and the United Kingdom. Using a unique data sample of 141 PE-backed and 185 non PE-backed IPOs between 1-10 billion in market capitalisation, this study measures the statistical significance of their abnormal performance three years after the IPO using all of the conventional performance measurement methodologies. Due to the measurements' considerable shortfalls, a new abnormal return measurement was developed, which allows for a new perspective on long-term performance by taking into account the companies' financial and industry risk, as well as investors' return expectations. Contrary to prior research, it was found that PE-backed IPOs do not outperform the market, while non-backed IPO firms do, especially in the US. Furthermore, companies that went public in years of heavy IPO activity did not underperform worse. It could also not be shown that IPO firms in technological industry sectors exhibit worse long-run returns compared to others. Lastly, a considerable impact of firm size on post-issue operating performance could be established, despite the size restricted sample. Measurement issues in long-run IPO performance studies were, however, clearly brought to light.
