rrichmondo | Why not (B)? |
jpducros | I think Shelf Registration is for the secondary market....and here we talk about new issuances. |
dini85 | Y not IPO? |
showmethemoney | no reason to make any assumption about disney being already in the market, although we all know disney already went public.. |
soukhov | seasoned new issue = SPO ? |
dan1987 | Disney is to issue new common stock -> indicates that there is old common stock and therefore has already had an IPO |
davcer | for non american candidates knowing that disney already has issued stocks is not straightforward |
