Why is DGB a public company?

Scaling our reforestation efforts requires continuous funding. Our public listing enables the fundraising needed to create the impact and scale we strive for.

Public assets have historically commanded higher average valuations for several reasons, including investors appreciating liquidity and transparency.

Our listing allows investors to supply liquidity while receiving compensation for improving our planetary health. It’s a win-win.

As a publicly traded purpose company, we reach a worldwide audience and enable individual shareholders to participate in our activities.

We can raise funds by issuing additional stock. This can be crucial for financing new projects, expansion, or research and development without seeking private loans or investors.

Being publicly traded can make mergers and acquisitions easier. Using stock as a currency can facilitate transactions that might not be possible with cash alone.

Public companies gain credibility and prestige with customers, suppliers, and partners, which can improve negotiations and secure better terms.

As a public company, we can offer more attractive compensation packages to our employees, including stock options and bonuses tied to our stock's performance.

Being publicly traded enforces discipline through regulations, shareholder demands, and market scrutiny, driving efficiency and long-term profitability.

Public companies are subject to stringent reporting requirements, leading to increased transparency, better governance, and greater trust among investors and the public.

Shareholders in public companies benefit from increased liquidity, enabling them to buy and sell shares more easily than in private companies.

Access to international investors and global visibility can open up more opportunities for expansion into new markets, enhancing DGB's growth potential.
