Venture Capital Method
Determine the • Investor’s required rate of return (ROI), and
• Terminal Value (TV)
Work backwards to get valua,on (Post $)
TV can be either exit or next round 14
VC Method Example
• TV based on es,mated revenues and/or Net Income in terminal year
• Example: – Es,mated revenue in Year 5 is $40M – Average mul,plier for industry = 2 – So your es,mated value of the company at the end of year 5 , or TV = $40M * 2 = $80M
*Note: Can also es,mate TV based on Net Income and apply average P/E mul,ples
15
VC Method Example
• ROI • Say I sell an investment for $100M that I purchased for $20M. What’s my ROI?
• Answer: $100M / 20M = 5x • Same as TV/Post$ = ROI • To solve for Post$: Post$ = TV/ROI
16
VC Method Example
• Say in our example that investor needs a 20X ROI • Post $ = TV/ROI • Post $ = $80M / 20 • Post $ = $4,000,000
