Private Company
All companies in the United States start as privately held companies. Private
companies range in size and scope, encompassing the millions of individually
owned businesses in the U.S. and the dozens of unicorn startups
worldwide. Even U.S. firms such as Cargill, Koch Industries, Deloitte and
PricewaterhouseCoopers with upwards of $25 billion in annual revenue fall under
the private company umbrella.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Limited liability companies (LLCs) often have multiple owners who share
ownership and liability. This ownership structure merges some of the benefits of
partnerships and corporations, including pass-through income taxation and
limited liability without having to incorporate.
Going public is a final step for private companies. An IPO costs money and takes
time for the company to set up. Fees associated with going public include an
SEC registration fee, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) filing fee, a
stock exchange listing fee and money paid to the underwriters of the offering.
