I'm not seeing how this is contradicting to what I said. IPO is initial offering of stock. That's when money flows to the company.

Fair point about using stock as collateral though.

What about issuing more stock after IPO? For many companies money flows in continuously, check the Tesla graph I sent above.

It wouldn't be called "Initial Public Offering" if it was the "Only Public Offering" like you suggest.
