Abstract
► We study operating, financial, and ownership characteristics of recent IPO firms. ► We study whether acquisitions of firms reflect their post-IPO performance. ► Strong performance and high institutional following attracts acquirers. ► Investments made by newly listed firms do not destroy shareholder. ► We find that IPO targets are similar to surviving firms.
