The IPO was planned long before the IAC declaration of war.
That is not the issue. The issue is how will the IAC Declaration of Hostility impact ISS in meeting its goals?
I think ISS has enough ISK to throw at this speed bump to overcome it.

The solution is thus in the scenario you describe The ISSO will issue 5 x 5bn ISK dividends on the same day.
Why is that the same for the shareholders and the ISSO? 80% of each 5bn dividend will return to ISSO wallet (4bn) and the other 20% (1bn) will end up in the shareholder wallets. 5 dividends x 1bn = 5bn = 5% as promised to the shareholders of 100bn in shares.
What is that better than a single 25bn ISK dividend? This solution only requires 10bn in cash ISK. Thus the majority of capital (Remaining 90%) can continue to be actively used in investments. Again, In Practice, the ISSO tends to have 10bn in cashflow anyway, so 100% of the IPO capital will be working.
Not that you have the option of doing a 25b ISK dividend. I haven't tested it out, but pre kali, it was capped at 2b per dividend.

That just means you have to do multiple dividend payments, it's not a problem.

The extra activity around KDF/ZX will probably mean bumper profits for the shareholders and ISSO. 
As long as they actually hold the outposts that is.

As long as they actually hold the outposts that is. 
During and following the last major war in the south, profits from ISS Providence temporarilly doubled and I believe at least 50% of that increase was attributable directly to the war. So yes, war is GOOD for business. Given that experience, I expect the shopping baskets described in the IPO document to perform extremely well.
And I wouldn't worry about the outposts :).

In an earlier post the count stated Quote: but all costs which may be incurred by this event can be covered by our current liquid assets.
if this the case why did the ISS have to have a 3 1/2 hour firesale of shares just before the MC,veto ect rolled into action?

Excuse me for my noobishness in this regard, but how are stocks/dividends actually handled? Is there an actual in game system for such payments?
I've got a large sum of ISK from trading but I figure it may be a good time to start investing it in some bigger ventures. I like the concepts behind this but I just want to better understand the actual in-game handling of things before investing possibly billions of isk :)

second question as i have just had pointed out to me on page 5 of your info posted by the op you seem to be stateing that you will be going into the capital ship production business, isn't this likely to bring on trouble from certain other alliances? and risk your outpost's even further and put you in the same sitution trust was in before you were handed their outpost?

considering these are likely to be supplying other alliances that will very likely be involved in hostilities it possibly could as you will be seen as aiding and abbeting (sp) them and this will hardeley help your attempts to look neutral will it?
PS is anyone gonna answer my first question?

It wasn't a fire sale, it was simply to increase the diversity of Investors and provide an opportunity for small investors to participate.
The main reason for the minimum limit is to reduce total potential transactions. When I have a free evening to process a lot of transactions, I can lower it again. Last night they were coming in faster than I could fill them.
The ISK from the capital raised has been used only as the plan as states. New ISS IPO

The dividend on the shares will remain at the minimum fixed return guarantee of 5% for a longer period of time.
Loss of the ISS Marginis, Tycho, Borealis, Consido, Fabrica will not effect profitability immediately, as those stations are owned by shareholders of the individual ISS Outpost Corporations, not the ISSO.
In the long term it may effect profitability as there are fewer isolated stations to deliver shopping baskets to. New ISS IPO

There is an in-game mechanic for issuing dividends. It's under the corp management panel. Just click 'dividends' under the 'home' tab. Then select 'shareholders' and enter the amount of the dividend.
The game then automatically divides the dividend proportionally amongst shareholders based on number of shares held. New ISS IPO

We will not be building Motherships or Titans, so will not pose any kind of special risk.

I'd like to point out something that was overlooked in preparation of ISSO, quote:
Quote:
ISS Cassini [ISSCA] ISS Managed IPO: 34Bn Total Managed: 172.5 Bn IPO Sell Time: 4 Hours
BOB and ASCN seized this station from D2. After much debate, it was decided ISS should run it as a public venture. The station was sold to the Eve community and the profits went primarily to D2 (former TRUST).
That's not accurate. The alliance formerly known as TRUST was not part of the alliance known as D2 at the time of the station takeover, nor did D2 exist as an official entity within the confines of the game code itself (barring any external press releases).
Dusk and Dawn [D2] Established on 2006.04.08 Source
TRUST officially announced it's dissoultion as an alliance on their website with the following news release:
Quote: TRUST hereby announces the dissolvement of our alliance structure.
The last weeks showed that some entities clearly did not respect our neutrality. It was expected that not everybody would embrace our n.... Source

Question: What recourse do share investors have if they wish to remove their investment with ISS? As an example, FIN offers a buyback policy. Does the ISSO have a similar offer?

I bought some shares from FIN and when I asked about buyback, they refused. FIN will offer buyback at some stage but it's not an automatic guarantee to buy back shares at any time. I ended up selling them to someone else. I suppose you could do the same if required.

Huh? FIN has a buyback at 95% IPO price.
