What is an Offering Memorandum?
An Offering Memorandum is used when a company is offering the sale of securities - stocks, bonds, notes, etc - that are unregistered with the SEC. The Memorandum informs potential investors about the offering and about the potential risks of purchasing the securities, and should be as detailed as possible on the current state of the business.

What does an Offering Memorandum do?
The Offering Memorandum, or Private Placement Memorandum, gives prospective investors the parameters of the offering, such as the number of shares being sold, the purchase price, and any caps or minimum number of shares an investor can buy. Most importantly, an Offering Memorandum includes in-depth information about the company, its current financial situation, any current and future projects, and potential uses for the new capital to be generated by the offering. It can also protect the company offering the securities from liability, acting as proof that the investor was fully informed.
