What is an IPO?

When a private company or a startup first sells its shares to the general public, this process is known as an Initial Public Offering (IPO). An IPO means that a company's ownership is transferred from private ownership to public ownership. That is why the IPO process is called "going public".

Why go public? The primary benefit of going public is easier access to capital, but there are more reasons for that. If you want to learn more - here we answered frequently asked questions about IPOs in simple terms.

What is CinCor?

CinCor is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company targeting cardiovascular, metabolic and kidney diseases. Its CIN-107 program works through the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), which is responsible for regulating the body’s fluid and electrolyte balance. The program is being developed for such medical needs as resistant hypertension and primary aldosteronism.

CinCor Business Details and Financials Before IPO

A clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development of a leading clinical candidate, CIN-107, for the treatment of hypertension and other cardiac and renal diseases.

The company is developing CIN-107, which can be used to treat hypertension, primary aldosteronism and chronic kidney disease. The company's development is currently undergoing phase 2 clinical trials. The development's main approach targets aldosterone. Aldosterone is the hormone responsible for sodium salt retention and potassium excretion by the kidneys. Aldosterone can cause blood pressure as a result of sodium retention in the kidneys. For example, the kidneys can pick up changes in the water-salt balance and start producing the hormone renin. Renin activates a substance previously found in the blood in an inactive form, angiotensin. Angiotensin constricts blood vessels (to raise blood pressure) and stimulates the adrenal glands to produce aldosterone. Under the influence of aldosterone, the kidneys stop excreting sodium and chlorine in the urine (replacing potassium). Sodium retains water to increase circulating blood volume.

The annual market for the treatment of hypertension in the USA is estimated to be $131 billion (to about 108 million people).

How to Participate in CinCor IPO Before Shares Hit the Public Market

In the past, Initial Public Offerings as a profitable investment type were only available to big funds or elite customers of major brokerage firms or banks and it was hard (almost impossible) for retail investors to gain access to IPOs. You couldn't buy shares paying the price set by the company and you had to wait until the shares actually start trading on the public stock market.

Luckily, technologies and marketplaces changed the rules of the game, now average investors can participate in IPOs. Brokers adjusted accordingly, making access to IPOs more affordable now.
