LETTER OF COMMENT
A letter sent to a company, from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), before issuing new shares. The letter assists the issuing company to make sure the information in their registration statement or S-1 are clear, accurate, transparent, and free from any irregularity.
Financial details, operations and management history, and any other related facts are the details covered in a company’s registration statement. Also called comment letter, it is usually informal by nature and done in a courteous manner. This spares both the firm and the SEC time and frustration, and guards the investors from any inaccurate or misleading information.
