Partial adjustment of hybrid book-building IPOs with a pre-IPO market

Abstract

Partial adjustment of book-building IPOs is to compensate bidders for their revealing positive information and is well documented in the U.S. pure book-building IPOs. We find that partial adjustment does not exist in Taiwanese hybrid dual-tranche book-building with a clawback provision and a pre-IPO market. In Taiwanese book-building, underwriters collect demand information during the pre-marketing period to set a price range and collect retail subscribers’ interests during the pre-selling period and trading information in the pre-IPO market to set a final offer price. The dual-tranche with a clawback provision hinders bidders from divulging positive information during the pre-selling period. Attracting retail subscription in the dual-tranche hybrid book-building process hurts underwriters’ information acquisition from the bidders. Underwriters set the final offer price based on the free information of retail subscription and the trading information in the pre-IPO market rather than bidders’ private information.
