Amarr Praetoria Shipyards

[1]
(IC INFO) I am Zolcan the CEO of Praetoria Shipyards. Some of you may remember me from my previous venture Sovereign Enterprises which was a successful IPO held here two years ago. For the last year I have managed Praetoria Shipyards my uncles company in Amarr space and have returned nearly 90% to our shareholders all of whom are Amarrian supporters.
Currently I am CEO of Praetoria Shipyards which already has issued stock (thru a different corp). The current corp will be "cashed out" for IPO value ($10b isk) per our charter then new stock can be issue in a new corp (separate corp exists just for stock issue).
I would like to gauge initial interest in the recreated corporation (which will be an alliance) consisting of Praetoria divisions Shipyard (T1 ship business), Laboratory (T2 invention business) and Slave Sales. Currently only the Shipyard is publically held with the invention business being 100% privately owned by Archbishop. An IPO will be held in the amount of $15b isk total value and a release of stock to Amarrian supporters and others of like mind. Minmatar terrorists need not apply.
Projected profits for the new combined conglomerate are in the $300-$700m biweekly range and dividends will be paid biweekly as was done with Sovereign Enterprises and Praetoria Shipyards. A total of 300,000 shares will be issued with a majority (at least 55%) being sold to our Chairman (Archbishop), 25% to Amarrian only loyalists and the remainder to other Amarrian and Caldari investors. Due to this breakdown the total IPO to the public will be around $6.5b-$7.0b not the full $15b as Archbishop will maintain majority ownership and control and will provide the majority of capital as he has in our previous offerings.
Shares will sell for 50,000 isk each and a limit will be placed on total shares by each buyer to allow as many people to participate in our IPO as possible.
I would like to gauge the interest of the public in this proposed new venture and assemble a list of people who may be interested when/if this new IPO occurs. A business plan will of course be posted prior to an IPO however I will provide links below to our last two IPO offerings and will let you know the business plan will be very similar. Our PSHIP website is also available linked below for your review.
Thank you,
Zolcan President/CEO Praetoria Shipyards
(OOC INFO) I've missed the market community the last year since closing Sovereign Enterprises. As you see I created an RP corp PSHIP to do some RP IPO stuff with the Amarrians and it's been very successful. It's been close to a year there and I'm looking to spice things up (and I miss this forum). To that end I'm planning a new IPO here for about $7b or so and just wanted to gauge interest. I'll do the big market plan and all but it'll be T1 ship sales and T2 invention stuff (what I've always done). My main character is Archbishop the PIE RPer and my primary alts are Zolcan (RP nephew of Archie) and Calladen Nimitz (who actually is doing something else so he won't be involved here with this IPO at all). Anyway if theres interest here in another small IPO ($7b) I'll write up a plan and make some preparations for around December. It'll be RP'd up because Archies an Amarrian but I really want to get back into the bigger market community stuff. Thanks. Archie/Zolcan

You had me at slave sales, count me in for some shares when you get to that phase of your project. I think it goes without saying that I am an Amarrian supporter.
Quote: Ricdic (about starting ebank, July 2007): Think of it as a miniature EIB done right. I cannot see this getting anywhere near 700b any time in the future tbh.

While I don't usually mix RP and business, I have good members from your previous offering and would like to purchase a 500M stake in this venture from my Amarrian friends. After all, I risked far more fighting our mutual enemies in Black Rise.

So with 15G ISK of shares, and an expected bi-monthly profit of between 300M and 700M ISK, the expeted ROI per 2 weeks is between 2% and 4.67%, is that correct?

I can't believe that the investors of New Eden have become so desperate and so loose with their money that they are willing to fund dirty slave traders. I hope that people change their mind about giving money to such an organisation.

As a previous investor, and supporter, I felt it best to point out the finer detail of the previous IPO's shutdown. As I remember it, we get first option(s) if you decided to re-enter the IPO market.
That being said, I would be very interested in exercising that option. I look forward to your prospectus and details.
Also nice to see you still around mate. Athre will also be pleased as well. |

You guys all seem pretty eager to jump into this. In the Eve I remember this would have scam written all over it. Has something changed recently?

Nothing has changed at all. There are some people so trustworthy you simply don't bother with the nitpicking and the inane details. IMNSHO Zolcan is one of them and I would put my reputation on the line for him any day of the week but Sunday. (Sundays are claimed by someone higher up.) Consider this my stamp of approval.

I'm pleased to see there is interest. Shar is correct I will be offering first shares to existing PSHIP and former SVRGN shareholders.
With my past IPOs its the simple fact that I enjoy the "business" part of it with my spreadsheets and graphs and dividends. I have as much fun with a balance sheet as some people have pvp'ing.
Unfortunately due to overall interest the top limit on shares may be low for many. You'll recall this was the case before although at this point after being in EVE over six years now with Beta I'm doing this more for the fun of being a public company then anything else. I think it's also true with many investors that in the end we have plenty of isk we just want something fun to do with it like investing. I still own a lot of stock in other EVE corps and I'll buy more not so I can see massive returns but moreso just have fun "playing the market".
The new IPO if my plan goes thru won't be huge compared to many I've seen. But you'll be able to have confidence that the guy running it is doing it for the right reason - fun.

So long as you don't let any dirty Minmatar own any shares (since they can't own property).........

I can certify that Shar is only acting upon orders duly given to her. However since Shar did not make that clear I will whip him quite thoroughly once his daily chores are done.
In Shar's case, reward and punishment in one act. Win - win.

That's silly and stupid. All slaves are criminals; either robbers, thieves or debtors. It's their own fault. Every time.
