Case Study: Large Privately Held Company achieves faster, more accurate IPO preparation with Merrill Corporation’s Merrill DataSite

Company gains speed, accuracy and control while reducing cost using Merrill DataSite® virtual data room (VDR)

A large privately held company preparing for an IPO needed a faster, more secure way to integrate information from a bolt-on acquisition and manage documents for due diligence and S-1 drafting. It turned to Merrill Corporation’s Merrill DataSite virtual data room to centralize financial and operational materials in a secure, easy-to-use environment.

Merrill Corporation implemented Merrill DataSite to provide 24/7 access, powerful search, and a full audit trail for reviewers. The company completed the integration and drafted its S-1 on an aggressive timetable, stayed on schedule through better accountability, and reduced costs in reprographics, travel, and professional fees while improving productivity and access to information.
