shinkim0914··on Show HN: S-1 Reader – IPO prospectuses that aren't eyesores
Thanks for the great points! I definitely went for "less is more" in this iteration. Financials should be incorporated, but I didn't want to just dump it on the casual reader who's not familiar with financial statements. I believe there are really may be ~10 lines of numbers (revenue breakdown, gross profit, operating cost line items, non-GAAP metrics) that deserve scrutiny in many cases.

Good point! Navigation is definitely not easy in this version. I'd be looking to a sticky table of contents widget on the side and/or a infinite scroll feature in the next version.

Hi HN, I believe S-1's should be more widely read, but are intimidating to first time readers. Here, I've taken Eventbrite's S-1, took only the most essential sections (~1/5 of total text), and overlaid a simple WP template to improve readability. Do you think it would be make sense for something like this to exist for ALL S-1's?

Here's Eventbrite's original full S-1 for comparison: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1475115/000119312518...
