Purpose The purpose of this study is to identify selected information from the prospectus that might signal the initial public offering (IPO) offer price. Design/methodology/approach This study uses cross-sectional data for a 14-year period from 2000 to 2014 in examining hypotheses relating to Shariah-compliant status, institutional investors, underwriter ranking and shareholder retention, with respect to their associations with the offer price of the IPOs. Further, this study uses ordinary least squares (OLS) for all models, including the models for both subsamples of Shariah- and non-Shariah-compliant IPOs. As for robustness, this study incorporates the quantile regression and quadratic model. Findings The results tend to provide support for the argument that firms with Shariah-compliant status reflect lower uncertainty and project better signalling of quality due to greater scrutiny by the government and thus are able to offer IPOs at higher prices. Similarly, firms with a higher proportion of shareholder retention indicate lower risks as insiders forego their options to diversify their portfolio, and hence could price their IPOs higher. Finally, the involvement of institutional investors and higher underwriter ranking could be used by firms to disregard information asymmetry, and therefore, the issuer might have to discount the IPO offer price. Research limitations/implications This study focuses solely on information in the prospectus that should not be disregarded by the investors in valuing the appropriateness of the IPO offer price. This study contributes in terms of providing a better understanding of the determinant factors of the IPO offer price of the firms which are Shariah-compliant. Originality/value This paper provides evidence for the determinants of the IPO offer price in a fixed pricing mechanism for both Shariah-and non-Shariah-compliant IPOs.

The Impact

This study investigates the impact of ongoing relationships between underwriters and institutional investors on Initial Public Offerings (IPO) pricing. Differently from previous studies that are focused on allocations of underpriced shares we propose a model of primary market pricing in which the incomplete adjustment of the offer price to its maximum achievable level depends on the intensity of interactions that occurred between players in the years before the IPO. Using a stochastic frontier approach on a sample of 1 677 US IPOs between 2000 and 2016 the paper shows that the more investment banks and investors regularly work together the more the IPO offer price is set closer to the fair value of the issuing firm. This analysis helps to disentangle the ambiguous effects of underwriters’ discretion on IPO primary market pricing when bookbuilding is used. We then support the idea that banks can maximize value to issuers by fostering a regular clientele of investors.

Level Of Agreement

This paper aims at assessing the need of book building pricing of IPOs as well as the level of agreement among market participants on its application in the context of Nepal. This study is based on a cross-sectional analysis of survey data of 71 respondents comprising 19 issue managers, 16 portfolio managers, six share registrars, 10 mutual funds, nine stock brokers and 11 retail investors, for the months of January and February 2020. Mainly, descriptive statistics and inferential statistics like one-way ANOVA have been used in the study to assess the need and level of agreement in adopting book building pricing. The study revealed that there is an urgent need of adopting book building mechanisms of IPO pricing in Nepal because the existing primary market is inefficient and there is a huge wealth loss of existing shareholders in terms of higher underpricing on equity offerings. The role of institutional investors followed by underwriters is found crucial especially to discover price band and final price i.e. cut-off price, of offerings under book building. Further, the level of agreement in adopting book building pricing in Nepal’s capital market is positive because (i) the price band is determined with the active support of qualified institutional investors, (ii) it lowers the degree of underpricing of IPOs than that of par value method, and (iii) book building help prevents „random free riders‟ from overwhelming the process of IPOs. Mainly, more active market participants, like issue managers, portfolio managers, and stockbrokers, have a high level of agreement in adopting book building pricing. The study findings associated with book building pricing are crucial and highly applicable in order to formulate policies and implementation of new pricing mechanism in Nepal. Implementation of book building pricing will contribute to reduce level of underpricing, attract real sector companies and/or foster the primary market efficiency in future.

Positive Effect

This study proves that underpricing is a robust factor on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. This research examines the pricing of IPO, the allocation of shares to groups of institutional investors, the underwriter reputation toward underpricing, price stabilization and excess returns in three regression models and some sub models. Regression results provide evidence that the IPO pricing and allocation of shares to groups of institutional investors affect the underpricing. This evidence supports book building models that developed by Benveniste and Spindt (1989). This study provides evidence that underpricing has a positive effect on price stabilization. Underpricing is also a positive effect on excess returns. Expected proceeds are strong support factor explains underpricing as a central factor. Age and expected proceeds are the support factors, together with underpricing explain price stabilization. Partial price adjustement is support factor together with underpricing explain excess returns.

The Capital Market

Acording to the author's opinion, institutional investors (from many participants of the capital market) play the main role, especially investment funds. They supply to small-sized investors special investment services, which allow them to participate in the investment process. However excessive institutialization and increasing number of hedge-funds may lead to financial crisis.
