What happens if a company I’m invested in goes public?

Following a liquidity event, the shares of the company may be subject to a lockup period, typically 90- 180 days, or longer for certain shares. This is a period of time after the company completes a public listing during which specified shares are restricted from being sold or transferred. Each exit is unique, so the Linqto Team will keep our investors as informed as possible regarding the potential outcomes, including what distribution option(s) become available, i.e., receiving stock in-kind or cash proceeds, as well as the timeline in which to expect the distribution.

When it comes to companies offered on the Linqto platform, we try to be as informed as possible when selecting opportunities to offer. Even with all of the information we gather, we can never guarantee a company will experience a liquidity event.
