20 Chemdex and Dilution

21 How to calculate dilution Step 1: Step 2: Step 3: Determine post money valuation Determine investor ownership Negotiate employee option pool + Money invested Pre-Money Money invested Post-Money Post-Money Value Investor Ownership + Investor Ownership Option Pool DILUTION Source: Founder s Fund

22 Option Pool

23 Seed Stage Financing Negotiate: - Valuation (pre-money generally $1-4M) - $ invested ($250k - $3M) - Employee pool (generally 10-20%) - Equity vs. Convertible Note

24 Series A Financing Negotiate: - Valuation (pre-money generally $5-15M) - $ invested ($5-$15M) - Employee pool (generally 10-20%)

25 Future Rounds Make sure valuations check with common P/E ratios given what milestones you ve hit Take into account how much total you will need to raise and make sure you raise at appropriate times where you ve hit good milestones Note that it takes ~6 months to raise cash. Make sure you have at least 12 months between rounds of financings

26 Valuation of Public Companies

27 Important Numbers to Know Market Cap = Outstanding Shares x Price per share EPS = Earnings per share P/E = Market Cap / Annual Earnings P/S = Market Cap / Annual Sales Enterprise Value = Market Cap + Debt

28 Metrics in Action Market Cap Net Income: $10 M Share Price: $15 Sales: $100 M P/E: 30 # Shares: 20 M P/S: 3 $300 M $300 M $300 M

29 Know Thyself

30 Would you rather... Raise $1M at $4M pre-money valuation Raise $7M at $7M pre-money valuation

31 Would you rather... Get $5M in the bank today Take a 10% chance of getting $50M in the bank tomorrow?

32 The important questions: How much do I need to raise? What is my risk profile? What do I believe about the future potential for this company?

33 Know what you re getting into...

58 Traditional Accounting: What Matters

59 Balance Sheet Assets Cash Accounts Receivable Inventories Other Current Assets Total Current Assets: Property, Plant and Equipment Intangible Assets Other Long Term Assets Total Assets: Assets = Liabilities + Equity Contributed Assets = Liabilities + + Retained Earnings Capital Liabilities and Shareholders Equity Accounts Payable Notes Payable Other Current Liabilities Total Current Liabilities Long Term Debt Assets = Liabilities Contributed Retained Earnings, Net Income Capital Beginning of Period for Period Dividends for Period Other Noncurrent Liabilities Total Liabilities Shareholders Equity Assets = Liabilities Contributed Retained Earnings, Revenues - Expenses Capital Beginning of Period for Period Dividends for Period Total Liabilities and Shareholders Equity.. Income Statement

60 Balance Sheet Analysis! Working Capital: Part of current assets not financed by current liabilities. Also a measure of how much you have in quickly liquid assets = Current Assets - Current Liabilities! Liquidity ratios: measures of the ability to meet short term financial obligations! Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities! Acid-test = (Cash + Accounts Receivable) / Current Liabilities! Operational Efficiency Measures! Inventory Turnover = Cost of Sales per year / Current Inventory! Accounts Receivable Collection Period = Accounts Receivable / Sales! Accounts Payable Collection Period = Accounts Payable / Cost of Sales

61 Income Statment Income Statement of XYZ Corp. Year Revenues - Cost of Revenue (product cost or COGS) = Gross Margin -! Sales and Marketing -! General and Administrative -! Research & Development -! Depreciation and Amortization = Operating Income (EBIT) + Interest Income(expense) net = Net Income before Taxes - Income Tax Provision - Extraordinary Items = Net Income Net Income = Revenues - Expenses! Some Profitability Measures:! Gross Margin (%) = Gross Profit / Sales! Operating Margin = Operating Income / Sales! Return on Sales = Net Income / Sales! Return on Equity = Net Income / Shareholders Equity! Other Important Measures! Earnings Per Common Share (EPS) = Net Income / Common Shares! Price Earnings Ratio (P/E) = Market Price / Earnings Per Share

62 Cash Flow Statement Operations Cash Received from Sales of Goods and Services _ Cash Paid for Operating Goods and Services = Cash Flow from Operations Investing Cash Received from Sales of Investments and Property, Plant and Equipment _ Cash Paid for Acquisition of Investments and Property, Plant and Equipment = + Cash Flow from Investing + Financing Cash Received from Issue of Debt or Capital Stock _ Cash Paid for Dividends and Reacquisition of Debt or Capital Stock = Cash Flow from Financing = Net Change in Cash for the Period Source: Stickney and Weil, Financial Accounting

63 Common Cash Flow Questions What is your monthly burn? (How much cash outflow do you see each month?) How much cash do you have left (see Balance Sheet)? When do we need to raise more capital?
