Peter & Partners' 'IPO Public Offering Investment Index' Patent

IPO Investment Guidance for Public Investors
Providing Average IPO Public Investment Returns and Market Trends Over the Past Year

Peter & Partners, a consulting firm for listed companies, announced on the 25th that it has secured a patent for implementing an 'IPO Index.' The patented model is named the K-IPO Index, and plans are underway to commercialize it.

Patent attorney Jung Yoonak from MAPS explained, "This is a patent related to the IPO index recognized for novelty, inventiveness, and industrial applicability," adding, "Overseas IPO-related indices are generally designed to artificially include or exclude stocks for the development of ETF derivative products." He continued, "Peter & Partners' IPO index is designed to serve as an investment indicator for IPO public offering investors."

Peter & Partners' IPO index represents the average return on IPO public offering investments. It shows the current stock price compared to the public offering price of companies newly listed within the past year. It allows for checking IPO return trends and investment patterns. Since it continuously tracks the current price relative to the public offering price of individual newly listed stocks, it is possible to examine when the appropriate profit-taking points were.

Peter & Partners plans to incorporate factors such as profit margin improvement after listing, stock dilution due to lock-up release, and market capitalization into the patent to provide various IPO investment indicators.

Go Seongmin, CEO of Peter & Partners, stated, "Despite the long history of domestic initial public offerings, there is still no proper investment indicator for IPO investors," and introduced, "We expect it to serve as an auxiliary indicator for investment decisions as an IPO market index specialized in market attention and public offering investment returns for newly listed companies."

According to the 'IPO Market Trends' report for the first half of this year published by Daishin Securities, the number of domestic IPO companies over the past 10 years is 1,238. The public offering scale reaches 72 trillion won. The cumulative subscription deposit size was 784 trillion won in 2021, the largest in the past five years. Last year, it was 322 trillion won, and 82 trillion won flowed in the first half of this year.

CEO Go said, "Companies preparing for listing enter the IPO market in optimal condition," and added, "IPO public offering stock investment has a high possibility of achieving high returns in a short period."

CEO Go designed the IPO index, which was reviewed by a mathematics professor from a domestic university. Graduating from the Department of Mathematics at the National University of Incheon, CEO Go majored in internet security in graduate school. He started the IPO consulting business in 2008 and has worked as a specialized panelist on IPO-related topics on major domestic economic TV channels. In 2012, he founded Peter & Partners, a listing consulting firm.
