Alliance Laundry Systems Takes the Leap Towards IPO with SEC Filing

In a major development for the commercial laundry industry, Alliance Laundry Systems has publicly filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This filing is a crucial step towards the company's forthcoming initial public offering (IPO), which will see its common stock listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "ALH."

Founded in Ripon, Wisconsin, Alliance Laundry Systems has built a formidable reputation as a leader in the production of top-grade commercial laundry equipment. The firm is recognized for its commitment to efficiency and innovation, serving a broad spectrum of clients across more than 150 countries. It boasts an extensive employee base of over 4,000 people, inline with its goal of delivering consistently high-quality products and services.

The specific details regarding the number of shares to be offered as well as the price range for this proposed offering have yet to be determined. The completion of the offering is dependent on market conditions, which introduces a degree of uncertainty regarding the timing and terms of the IPO. As such, Alliance Laundry Systems has reiterated that there can be no guarantees concerning when the offering will be finalized or the ultimate size and terms.

The IPO process has engaged several prominent financial institutions. BofA Securities and J.P. Morgan are serving as joint lead book-running managers, while Morgan Stanley has been appointed as the book-running manager. The company has also enlisted Baird, BDT, MSD, BMO Capital Markets, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, and UBS Investment Bank as passive bookrunners. In addition, CIBC Capital Markets and Fifth Third Securities will act as co-managers.

It’s important for potential investors to note that this proposed offering will only be initiated via the issuing of a formal prospectus. Once available, stakeholders can access the preliminary prospectus through the EDGAR section of the SEC's website or by directly contacting BofA Securities or J.P. Morgan for further information.

The filing of the registration statement is an instrumental part of transitioning from a private to a public company. However, it remains essential to underline that the shares cannot be sold, nor can offers to buy be accepted, until the registration statement is declared effective by the SEC.

Alliance Laundry Systems is known for its range of reputable brands including Speed Queen®, UniMac®, Huebsch®, Primus®, and IPSO®, which offer a complete lineup of commercial washing machines, dryers, and ironers. With load capacities spanning from 12 to 400 lb (or 6 to 180 kg), these brands have established themselves as benchmarks in reliability and performance in the sector.

The company has met the evolving laundry needs of both commercial clients and residential customers, enabling homeowners to enjoy the same quality of laundry machinery that is utilized in professional settings through its renowned Speed Queen® product line.
