Yes. The SEC recommends full and prompt disclosure to a wide distribution. All of the recommended disclosure media Dow Jones, Reuters, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, AP, UPI, Moody's, Standard & Poor's, Fitch, Knight-Rider and Bloomberg Business News are always included in the distribution of all business stories. Private companies do not have the same legal requirements as public companies, however, issuing news releases over PR Newswire helps pre-IPO companies gain visibility among these audiences early on as well as establish standards for communicating with these audiences. Companies considering an IPO should begin acting like a public company two years prior to their IPO.
