기업공개(Initial Public Offering, IPO)는 기업의 중요한 전략 중 하나로 IPO를 통해 가치를 평가받고 보상받으며 다음 단계로의 성장을 위한 자본을 조달할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 CEO의 개인적 특성이 IPO까지의 소요기간에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. CEO의 나이, 관련 전공 여부, 최종학력, 이전 업무경험이 IPO까지의 소요기간을 단축할 것이라고 가설을 제시하였다. 코스닥 벤처기업부, 신성장기업부에 상장한 318개 기업을 대상으로 분석한 결과, 기업 공개까지의 소요기간에는 CEO의 나이, 전공(의학계열), 최종 학력 등이 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

본 논문은 1999년 1월부터 2000년 12월까지 코스닥증권시장에 등록한 벤처기업의 IPO를 대상으로 발행시장에서 벤처캐피탈리스트의 역할을 살펴보고 있다. 특히 미국의 발행시장에서는 벤처캐피탈리스트가 투자한 기업이 조기에 공개되는 현상이 나타나는 것으로 보고되고 있는 바, 우리나라에서도 이러한 현상이 존재하는지를 실증적으로 조사하고 있다. 코스닥증권시장에 등록한 벤처기업의 IPO를 대상으로 발행시장에서 벤처캐피탈리스트의 역할에 관한 우리의 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 벤처기업과 비벤처기업의 초기 초과수익률의 차이분석에서, 벤처기업은 $AR_1$에서 할인 발행의 정도가 적어 Megginson-Weiss(1991)의 결과와 유사한 것으로 나타났지만, $AR_2$에서 발행가격 결정시 고려하지 못하는 비계수적 환경요인 등 미래기대수익에 대한 일반투자자의 평가가 호의적으로 나타나 발행회사의 입장에서는 할인발행의 정도가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이는 이기환 임병균 최해술(1998), 장상수 길재욱(2000) 등의 연구와 유사한 결과를 보이고 있다. 둘째, 벤처캐피탈리스트의 명성에 따라 초기 초과수익률에 차이가 있었다. 즉, KTB지원기업의 초기 초과수익률이 낮았다. 셋째, 벤처캐피탈리스트의 보유지분을 변동에 대한 차이는 IPO전 평균보유지분율은 비KTB가 높았으나 공개 후 평균보유지분율은 KTB가 높았다. 이때 보유지분을 변동이 적은 KTB 지원기업의 초기 초과수익률이 낮았다. 특히 업력과 총자산의 규모가 할인발행을 줄이는 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 업력은 Muscarella-Vetsuypens(1989)의 연구와 일치하고 있다. 넷째, 2개 이상의 벤처캐피탈리스트로부터 공동으로 투자받은 벤처기업의 초기 초과수익률이 하나의 벤처캐피탈로부터 단독으로 투자받은 벤처기업의 초기 초과수익률보다 낮았다. 그러나 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 다섯째, IPO까지 소요기간의 차이가 있는지에 대한 분석에서 비KTB지원기업이 보다 빨리 공개되고 있어 조기업적과시현상(grandstanding)을 보였다. 이는 Gompers(1996)의 연구와 일치한다. 여섯째, 등록주선인의 시장점유율에 차이가 있는지를 분석한 결과, KTB가 투자한 벤처기업 등록주선인의 평균시장점유율이 낮았다. 그러나 통계적 유의성은 없었다.

In general, a venture capital invests in tech startups and helps them improve the corporate transparency through board of directors. With respect to venture capital investment and its impact on the corporate transparency of the newly public firms from 2004 to 2010 in Korea, we have made regression analysis. First, it was found that it was likely to be less transparent, the larger its asset size or the higher its debt ratio was. Second, lower level of ownership-control disparity resulted in higher transparency. Third, a shorter period to IPO and higher growth rate were more prominent in companies with lower degree of transparency. The above findings were not conclusive to prove whether or not venture capital directly increases the transparency level of its portfolio companies, but do insinuate the possibility of a negative impact on the transparency of its investee companies, as early IPO's were associated with less transparency. This is all the more persuasive as it was observed that companies with a lower level of transparency had generally raised more money from venture capitals, and that companies with a higher growth rate and/or higher PBR, have shown to be less transparent.

The purpose of this study is to examine whether the existence of related personnel in KOSDAQ technology special listed firms has a signal effect on the market and affects performance when listed. The KOSDAQ technology special listing system is a system introduced to enable future growth by securing financing through corporate public offering based on the technology and marketability of technology-based startups and venture companies. As a result of analyzing 135 special technology companies listed from 2005 to 21 (excluding SPAC mergers and foreign companies) whether or not related personnel affect corporate value and listing period when they are listed, it was analyzed that the presence of related personnel did not significantly affect corporate value or listing period. The same was found in the results of the verification by reducing the scope to related personnel such as public officials and related agencies. However, under certain conditions, significant results were derived from the presence of related personnel on the listing of companies listed in special technology cases. It was found that the presence of related personnel and VC investment had a significant effect on corporate value, and in the case of bio-industry, there was a slight significant effect on the duration of listing. This study is significant in that it systematically analyzed the signal effect of the existence of related personnel for the first time for all 135 companies. In addition, as a result of the analysis, the results suggest that internalized efforts to secure technology and marketability are more important, such as parallel to VC investment, rather than simply recruiting related personnel.

This study analyzes newly listed companies on KOSDAQ from 2011 to 2020 for both firms having experience in attracting venture investment before listing (VI) and those without having experience in attracting venture investment (NVI) by examining differences between two groups (VI and NVI) with respect to both the level of listing performance and that of firm performance (growth) after the listing. This paper conducts descriptive statistics, mean difference, and multiple regression analysis. Independent variables for regression models include VC investment, firm age at the time of listing, firm type, firm location, firm size, the age of VC, the level of expertise of VC, and the level of fitness of VC with investment company. Throughout this paper, results suggest that listing performance and post-listed growth are better for VI than NVI. VC investment shows a negative effect on the listing period and a positive effect on the sales growth rate. Also, the amount of VC investment has negative effects on the listing period and positive effects on the market capitalization at the time of IPO and on sales growth among growth indicators. Our evidence also implies a significantly positive effect on growth after listing for firms which belong to R&D specialized industries. In addition, it is statistically significant for several years that the firm age has a positive effect on the market capitalization growth rate. This shows that market seems to put the utmost importance on a long-term stability of management capability. Finally, among the VC characteristics such as the age of VC, the level of expertise of VC, and the level of fitness of VC with investment company, we point out that a higher market capitalization tends to be observed at the time of IPO when the level of expertise of anchor VC is high. Our paper differs from prior research in that we reexamine the venture ecosystem under the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 which stimulates the degradation of the business environment. In addition, we introduce more effective variables such as VC investment amount when examining the effect of firm type. It enables us to indirectly evaluate the validity of technology exception policy. Although our findings suggest that related policies such as the technology special listing system or the injection of funds into the venture ecosystem are still helpful, those related systems should be updated in a more timely fashion in order to support growth power of firms due to the rapid technological development. Furthermore, industry specialization is essential to achieve regional development, and the growth of the recovery market is also urgent.
