E145 Winter 2008 Some fundamentals... What is a V.C.? Why would I want to take their money? and what will I have to give up? Would they want me to take their money?!?

E145 Winter 2008 What is Venture Capital?

E145 Winter 2008 How does a VC work Size of VC fund: $500M –Institutional 20-40 @ $10-50M –Individuals 50-200 @ $0.5-5M Invests over 3-5 years, return within 10 On average delivers 30% per year return 10 partners, 30-40 companies per fund What size deal would be interesting?

E145 Winter 2008 Which do you like? Suppose you were to invest $10M –Fund 1: 2x return on all 10 $1M investments –Fund 2: Loses all $1M investments in 8 deals Wins 20x on the remaining 2 $1M investments Source: Andy Rachleff

E145 Winter 2008 So, what do I have to give up?
9
E145 Winter 2008 That’s not the right question It ain’t the angle of the slice - it’s the size of the PIE –Goal: Trade shares to grow the pie –Is worth more than the whole pie that never grows –Is not easy to achieve, even with lots of financing –Requires a good relationship between entrepreneur and investors
10
E145 Winter 2008 A Real Life Example: Chemdex* How much money do the founders need? How long until significant revenue? How long until profitability? What’s the going rate for 1st round deals? Valuation is an art, not a science. *Chemdex is now called NexPrise (NXPS)
11
E145 Winter 2008 Chemdex in 1997: Series A 1. How much does the company need to raise?
12
E145 Winter 2008 Series A 2.Negotiate a pre-money valuation post $ = pre $ + amount raised = $2.7 M + $1.9 M % of company sold = amount raised / post $ valuation = $1.9 M / $4.6 M How much do the founders own at this point?
13
E145 Winter 2008 Series A 3. Determine share price and total number of shares In Round A, share price is set so total shares = 5-10 million Total Shares = post $ / share price = $4.6 M / $0.54 = 8.5 M shares
14
E145 Winter 2008 Series B 1. How much does the company need to raise?
15
E145 Winter 2008 Series B 2. Negotiate a pre-money valuation post $ = pre $ + amount raised = $11 M + $13 M % of company sold = amount raised / post $ valuation = $13 M / $24 M
16
E145 Winter 2008 Series B 3. Determine new share price Share price = (pre-money valuation) / (total pre-money shares) = $11M / 8.5 M
17
E145 Winter 2008 4. Determine total number of shares Total Shares = pre $ shares + amount raised / share price = 8.5 M + $13 M / $1.29 Series B
18
E145 Winter 2008 Chemdex - Series C 3. Determine new share price 4. Calculate total number of shares 1. Decide how much you need to raise 2. Negotiate a valuation

20
E145 Winter 2008 Calculating Dilution Percentage owned = owned shares / total shares Founders’ shares = 59% of 8.5M = 5.02M shares Series B Dilution: 5.02M / 18.6M = 27% Series C Dilution: 5.02M / 24.2M = 21% IPO Dilution: 5.02M / 31.8M = 16% Post-$ Valuation $471$24$130$4.6 Could Chemdex founders get to this size on their own?
21
E145 Winter 2008 What besides cash do they offer? (Picture of Randy) Randy Komisar –Expertise –Contacts (their and the firm’s rolodex) Your due diligence of the VC firms you interact with should be at least as in depth as their due diligence of you

E145 Winter 2008 Valuing Public Companies
27
E145 Winter 2008 Ratios & Valuing Public Companies Today Market Cap = # shares outstanding x Share price –Answers “What does the market think the company is worth?” –Examples GOOG with 306M outstanding shares @ $467.29 / share = $143B market cap YHOO with 1.36B outstanding shares @ $28.56 / share = $48.9B market cap
28
E145 Winter 2008 Ratios & Valuing Public Companies Today Ratios –EPS = Earnings per share An indicator of value created for shareholders –P/E = Market Cap / Annual Earnings = Stock Price / EPS How much does $1 of earnings cost an investor? –P/S = Market Cap / Annual Sales Similar companies facing similar risks should have similar ratios (Comparables / Comps) “Enterprise Value” - Market Cap + Debt
29
E145 Winter 2008 Metrics in Action Market Cap Net Income: $10 M P/E: 30 $300 M Share Price: $15 # Shares: 20 M $300 M Sales: $100 M P/S: 3 $300 M

E145 Winter 2008 36 “Venture Capital” Method Valuing Cash, Time and Risk This method defines one simple valuation approach: 1.Forecast Future Results (Financial Statements) 2.Determine likely value at that point (P/E Ratio) 3.Determine Dilution (Capital, Stock Options) 4.Determine share of pie demanded given required rates of return 5.Convert future values to present to derive share prices, ownership percentages Source: Prof. Doug Mackenzie (KPCB)
37
E145 Winter 2008 37 “Venture Capital” Quick Example 1.Forecast Future Results (Financial Statements) Net Income of $10M in Year 5 2.Determine likely value at that point (P/E Ratio) Industry currently demanding P/E ratios of 30, future value of $300M (year 5) 3.Determine Dilution (Capital, Stock Options) See Chemdex example (identify capital needs and shares required for management and employees)
38
E145 Winter 2008 38 “Venture Capital” Quick Example 4.Determine share of pie demanded given required rates of return Each investor class (VC Round) will require a rate of return, lower over time as risk is mitigated through successful milestones 5.Convert future values to present to derive share prices, ownership percentages Chemdex shows share valuation and issuance of new shares If a VC invests $5M today with expected IRR of 70%, would require ownership stake of $71M (23%) in year 5 at exit / IPO.
