What does the due diligence of IPO business mainly include?
The content of IPO due diligence involves many aspects of the enterprise, mainly including the basic situation of the company, business technology, horizontal competition and related transactions, senior management, organizational structure and internal control, financial accounting, business development goals, and the use of raised funds. The most important thing is to find out whether the enterprise has the ability to continue to operate, whether it has the qualification of an independent legal person, and whether all the operations in history are legal and compliant.

First, whether an enterprise has sustainable profitability is the core content of IPO. The CSRC is very taboo about the "sudden change in performance" of listed companies after listing, and often imposes the strictest punishment on sponsors of listed companies with sudden changes in performance. At the same time, the credibility of enterprise historical data is also the focus of brokerage verification. If the CSRC discovers the problem of enterprise financial fraud, unless the sponsor can prove that he has done his duty, the project team members will bear great responsibility.

Second, whether the enterprise has the qualification of independent legal person and maintains its independence. This requires an enterprise to be independent from the controlling shareholder and actual controller in business, finance, organization, assets and personnel.

Third, whether the business operation is legal and compliant. Legal compliance involves all aspects of the enterprise, requiring the enterprise and major shareholders to be clean at least in the first three years covered by the listing materials, such as not being punished by judicial organs or administrative organs, not owing money to others due, and not having important litigation and arbitration. At the same time, from the date of birth, the historical evolution of equity cannot be flawed. This requires the sponsoring brokerage firm to conduct a comprehensive and detailed verification of the enterprise's historical evolution, operation and management, asset property rights, litigation and arbitration, and coordinate with relevant administrative departments to issue a certificate of no violation when necessary.
